Reflector Reflection: a closer look at the 48th gate of DEPTH + Neutrino weather about TALENT + Meryl Streep

This week’s Neutrino Weather (21-27 June) highlights ‘talent’.

This week it’s worth paying attention to the Channel of the Wavelength and the beaming of the neutrino field into a direction that demands the upholding and defence of fundamental human rights and our capacity to learn to live in line with them. In essence, talent is learning to finetune our potential for awareness!

Reflector Reflection: a closer look at the 48^th gate of depth

The nodal configuration of these present times all the way till July 20^th carries the 48^th gate in the South Node. It brings forward a perspective that highlights standing more grounded in our individual awareness. If we don’t understand that life is an opportunity for awareness, it is so easy to be blinded about all being part of the same human family. The 48^th gate holds incredible keys for us as a species, so let’s reflect on some of its qualities. 

It is called “The Well” and is called the Gate of Depth. Its heading says: “The necessary and qualitative foundation that is a prerequisite to establishing the common good.”

This energetic outlet of the Splenic Centre imbues our existential intelligence with the depth necessary to bring forward our alignment with patterns that are life-affirming and consciousness-affirming. Not only are we imbued with a potential to recognize how we can adjust to such patterns. We are also imbued with the depth to bring forward the solutions and our adaptation to them. 

Ultimately, the 18^th Gate is here to correct what impedes basic and fundamental human rights. The 48^th Gate is here to bring the depth of that pattern forward, for the benefit of all. A simple example would be the recognition of our human interaction with certain bacteria through the 18^th gate and the adoption of hygiene policies thanks to the 48^th gate.

What is required to establish the common good is a necessary and qualitative foundation. This ‘necessary’ foundation points to the scientific and material aspect of the pattern. The ‘qualitative’ foundation points inwards, emphasizing awareness and the Science of the Inner. In order to benefit our awareness, we must bring forward collective patterns that secure the material requirements of our life spark, as well as patterns that bring forward our potential for awareness, the qualitative aspect of patterns. 

Ra often referred to this energetic outlet as the Gate of ‘Black Magic.’ Black magic refers to the fact that the understanding of patterns of Existence comes together with a potential for awareness (magic). If we do not reveal the pattern that prevents a person from accessing consciousness, we can be dealing with a form of manipulation. That is why Ra was always insistent on guiding everybody through the Bodygraph when introducing them to Human Design because it shows the pattern. Those who do not do so, he ironically referred to as “people doing black magic with white hats on” meaning that they are using the understanding of life’s patterns while keeping somebody in the dark, in a certain illusion. The use of algorithms that combine the understanding of psychology and technology in order to manipulate people can also be seen as a form of ‘black magic’ coming forward with a white hat.

We can also see that sometimes the ‘qualitative foundation’ of certain patterns has been explored more deeply than the ‘necessary foundation’ of them. A simple example would be the use of entheogens. Many ancient tribes still have access to patterns of life that hold incredible pieces of awareness, because they explored this understanding deeper than our Western culture. 

Our Western culture considers these practices occult because our Western conditioning has been oriented to the outside, to the empirical aspect of life’s patterns. But there are many places around the world where Inner Sciences, focusing on the ‘qualitative foundation’ of patterns, have been explored. Many monasteries in Tibet, or ritual practices in tribes, have faced the ignorant judgment and outrageous destruction brought about by cultures that focus solely on outer sciences. The ones bringing forward the darkness are those who do not understand the patterns, that’s the irony of it. 

Academic science is hesitantly approaching the influence of certain entheogens on our brain and awareness, while ancient cultures developed medicine based on their qualitative understanding of these patterns. There is no ‘black magic’ as commonly understood. There is just a lot of ignorance about the incredible awareness potential certain patterns of life hold. We cannot bring forward the understanding of the potential of our awareness if we solely focus on the empirical side of patterns. This hexagram clearly states that there is both a necessary and qualitative dimension in patterns that needs to be brought forward for the benefit of our consciousness as a whole. 

The foundation of the cosmology put forward by Human Design says that our universe is the expression of a dual consciousness. We humans are an expression of fractals of that dual consciousness reflected in our Design Crystal and Personality Crystal. Ultimately, these crystals are the necessary (Design Crystal) and qualitative (Personality Crystal) foundation of the pattern of life that allows us to establish awareness, of the common good from which we all benefit. 

The learning process this hexagram puts forward says that the necessary and qualitative foundation needs to point to Self-fulfilment, and awareness. Awareness is our undiminishable resource, and is the essence of our depth. 

Work one-on-one with me

For those of you who feel drawn to explore the depths of your own Human Design or wish to embark on a journey of self-discovery with Human Design-assisted therapy, I warmly invite you to schedule a reading or a therapy session: https://cal.com/dirk-nellens

This is an opportunity for us to engage deeply with your unique energetic blueprint, fostering transformative insights and profound growth.
