Energy Weaving with the Wandering Shaman: Quantum Human Design & Shamanic Wisdom - June 2, 2025 - The Sun Enters the Gate of Experience/The Earth Enters the Gate of Consistency

Hello everyone!  Welcome back to my podcast, where we explore the movement of the sun and the Earth through the Human Design Chart and some shamanic wisdom to help us along the way.  If you are new to this podcast or to the concepts of Human Design and Shamanism, please go back and listen to episode 0, where I set the stage for what we are discussing here.  You can also read the introductory blog here for the same information if you prefer.

Today is June 2, 2025, and the sun is lighting up Gate 35 - the Gate of Experience - and the earth is highlighting Gate 5 - the Gate of Consistency. Before we get into what all that means, I have one quick announcement.  I will be back at Ways to Wellness in Midland, Michigan doing Quantum Human Design readings this Saturday, June 7th.  There is still a little bit of time left to register for a full reading which includes a 6-7 page printed report and an hour long session with me.  Those need to be booked by June 3rd.  So if you’re reading this blog, are in the Midland, Michigan area, and have been thinking about getting a reading done, this is your sign to REGISTER NOW!  The link to register is here: https://squareup.com/.../o9dvgb4kykac66/LVN6DRS0CXC8R/start.  And if you missed the June 3rd deadline for a full reading, you can still register or walk in for a 20 minute mini reading.  All you need is your birthdate, time and place.  Mini readings are $30.

Now on to our energies for this week.  First is Gate 35, the Gate of Experience.  There are a lot of big keynote ideas and challenges in the energy of this gate.  I have a lot of questions for you to contemplate, so get your journals and let’s dive in.  There are several challenges in this energy, and I’m going to focus on 3 of them.

1. It challenges us to not let experience lead to us feeling jaded or bored.  Do you have some life experiences that have left you feeling jaded?  Is there something you can do to rewrite that story and maybe release some of that jaded feeling?  Is there someone or something you need to forgive?  Is there something you are ready to let go of?  Is there an experience that has left you feeling bored?  Is there some way you can find new passion for that experience?   Is there something you can do to breathe new life into it?  Or is it something you simply need to let go?

2. It challenges us to have the courage to share what we know from our experience.  Have you had challenging experiences that you have gone through?  Would someone else benefit from hearing your story?   This doesn’t mean you have to write a book; it could simply be a short conversation that could change someone’s perspective.

3. It challenges us to know which experiences are worth participating in.  Have you ever done something that turned out to be less than satisfying for you?  Do you feel pressured to participate in things that don’t light you up?  Can you take a step back and reserve your energy for the things that call to you on a soul level?

The bottom line is, the gate’s energy is about the ability to know which experiences are worthy and worthwhile, to partake in the right experience, and to share your knowledge from that experience for the sake of changing the story of what’s possible in the world.  It’s about finding passion.  Where are you finding passion in your life?  Do you need to create or discover more passion?  How about curiosity?  What are you curious about?  How can you expand that curiosity?  So much to consider.  

On to Gate 5, the Gate of Consistency.  As its name suggests, the energy in this gate is all about patterns, routines, schedules, habits, practices…whatever you want to call it.  It’s about finding your rhythm - a rhythm that supports alignment with your soul’s purpose.  It’s about having consistent habits that support your growth and evolution no matter what is happening around you.  Of course the first thing that comes to mind for me is consistency with diet and exercise.  I find it so easy to create excuses to get off track based on my outside circumstances.  “I don’t have time.” or “I’m having a bad day - this (insert food of choice here) will definitely make me feel better.”  or “We have to celebrate!  We have to eat (insert food of choice here) because it’s (insert occasion).”  or “It’s raining - I don’t feel like working out in the rain.”  or “It’s too hot to work out.” or “Or it’s to cold.”  or 100 other justifications we can create.  And these excuses can be there for anything.  I didn’t get up early enough - I don’t have time to meditate today.  (You can always meditate later.) I’ll start my journaling tomorrow for sure.  (Tomorrow never comes.)  What’s one habit or pattern that you could start today that would help bring you closer to aligning with your soul’s purpose?  Could you spend 5 minutes a day quieting your mind?  Could you make a daily to-do list to help keep you on track?  Could you plan and prepare food for tomorrow so that you’re not caught off guard and end up driving through somewhere less-than-ideal?  Could you simply start making your bed every day?  Could you commit to walking 20 minutes a day, no matter what the weather?  Combining this idea with the energy of Gate 35, could you commit 15 minutes a day either doing something you are passionate about or if you don’t know what you’re passionate about, tuning in to find your passion?  Start small and see where it goes.  At the end of this episode, I will have some affirmations for you.  Maybe start there.  Spend 5 minutes a day reciting affirmations.  Like I said, start small…but start somewhere.

Now let’s take a look at the Mystical Shaman Oracle card that I drew for today’s reading.  I decided to go back to doing a random draw and got the Magic card. Here it is:

This symbol represents the infinite intelligence of Great Spirit that makes up the fundamental fabric of the universe.  We experience the evidence of this magic through synchronicity, or meaningful coincidence.

When Magic appears, you’re invited to see the world through the eyes of wonder and awe, taking on the innocence of a child who knows that all things are possible.  Infinite potential exists in the Great Mind, and you are being invited to call it in and recognize the dance in synchronistic events, signs, symbols, and omens given to you through the oracle of the ordinary world.  This is a sign that Spirit is reminding you that you co-create your world in a sacred partnership.  Your part is to dream, to intend, and to watch for the signs that show you what next action to take.  Right now, it appears that you are on the right track to make your dreams come true.  Great Spirit is listening and acting on your behalf!  Pay attention.  Magic gives birth to miracles.

Have you forgotten that you live in a world that is infused with magic?  Perhaps you’ve become cynical and think you have to create your life all by yourself with no help from others.  (Think about that very first contemplation question - Do you have some life experiences that have left you jaded?) It’s time to remember your relationship to Source, for you are a part of the story of the world, a living spark of Spirit living on earth for this short time as an emissary of light.  

If you look back over your life, you will find many instances in which your actions alone were not the cause of “out of the blue” coincidences that led you to that new relationship, job, or other important moment on your journey.  So, how do you stay in the awareness?  The answer is simple.  If you can be as a little child and cultivate that wondrous curiosity, you will see the magic again and be amazed.  Remember, magic is real and in everything. (Think of that last contemplation question - How can you expand your curiosity?)

It’s an interesting “coincidence” how the messages from those energies and the random oracle card drawn “mesh” together.  So let’s end with some affirmations.  As always, take what resonates and leave the rest.  Here we go:

Affirmations:

• Consistency gives me power.

• When I am aligned with my own natural rhythm, I cultivate strength and connection with Source.

• When I am aligned with the rhythm of life around me, I am a beacon of stability and order.

• I am an experienced, wise, and knowledgeable resource for others.

• My stories help others create miracles in their lives.

• I deserve joy and passion in my life.

• I believe in the Magic of the Universe.

My next episode comes to you on June 8th, when the sun is in Gate 45, the Gate of Distribution, and the earth is in Gate 26, the Gate of Integrity. Until then, take good care, look for the magic, and we’ll see you soon.
