How do we hold the complexity of arriving at simplicity? How does becoming aware of love's presence help us transform fear into wisdom? How does working with our emotional pain assist with returning us to innocence?

The theme for September is Arriving at Simplicity.

The route to simplicity is often anything but simple. It can be riddled with confusion, chaos, and doubt.

In this episode, I share some contemplations for us to return to throughout the month.

September 2024 starts with a New Moon in Virgo. It ends with the Sun conjoining the North Node in Libra. In between, we have the Full Moon in Pisces, which ushers the second eclipse season of the year, and Mars entering Cancer.

What is the open throat center in Human Design? How do we work with its unique gifts and challenges in the process of deconditioning?

The open / undefined throat is one of my favorite topics in Human Design.

It's said that only 29% of the population has an open throat center, making it the least common out of the open centers. Unsurprisingly (and pun intended), there's a lot of misconceptions, misunderstandings, and, frankly, terrible advice about how to live with an open throat center.

In this episode, I share about my process understanding, deconditioning, and ultimately befriending my undefined throat.

Thank you Kelsey Rose Tortorice for the question! You can listen to my conversation with Kelsey here. She also has incredible courses to help you learn Human Design, Human Design for the Astrologically Minded and Living Your Design.

I also mentioned my HD teachers, Amy Lee and John Cole of Human Design Collective whose foundational courses on Human Design I highly recommend.

How might thinking open a portal to embodied transcendence? What role do the right questions at the right time play in walking an open-hearted path?

Thinking is often bedeviled in 'spiritual' spaces.

Thinking has been marketed as the enemy of the heart-centered, spirit-led life. Thinking has been defined as the opposite of embodiment. Thinking has been dubbed the root of all sufferings.

But does thinking not also happen in the body? Why does Life gift us minds alongside bodies and hearts, if we were asked to shut it down to reach spiritual mastery?

I explore these spiky questions from the lens of the Mercury Retrograde in Virgo and the Mercury Cazimi in Leo.

I also mentioned some of my teachers, Diana Rose Harper and Deborah Kremins, as well as a container I'm currently facilitating, Deep Spirit Medicine.
