Hola Amigius!
As the Full Moon rises in the disciplined sign of Capricorn, we're presented with a powerful opportunity for transformation and growth. This lunation not only highlights the pragmatic energy of Capricorn but also aligns with the profound teachings of Gate 60 in Human Design and Gene Key 60. Let's dive deep into these three layers and discover how to harness their collective power.
Astrology: Full Moon in Capricorn
The Full Moon in Capricorn brings a grounding energy, urging us to focus on our long-term goals, responsibilities, and the structures that support our ambitions. Capricorn's influence encourages us to take a practical approach to our dreams, transforming our aspirations into achievable plans. This is a time to reflect on our accomplishments, reassess our goals, and set realistic, yet ambitious, targets for the future.
Key Themes:
Structure and Discipline: Take a moment to think about the foundations of your life and career. What needs strengthening? What can be released?
Responsibility and Achievement: Recognize your hard work and the milestones you've reached. Celebrate your progress while planning your next steps.
Grounded Ambition: Balance your dreams with practical steps. Use this lunation to create a realistic roadmap for your future.
Managing Pressure: Reflect on the pressure in your life. How can you turn it into a positive force for growth?
2. Human Design: Gate 60 - The Gate of Limitation
Gate 60, known as the Gate of Limitation, resides in the Root Center, which is the source of pressure to evolve and grow. This gate is all about accepting and working within the boundaries that life presents. It's a reminder that limitations are not obstacles but opportunities for growth and transformation. By embracing our constraints, we can find innovative ways to overcome them, leading to personal and collective evolution.
Teachings of Gate 60:
Acceptance: Acknowledge your limitations without resistance. Acceptance is the first step towards transformation.
Order in Chaos: Use limitations as a framework to bring order and structure to your life. This gate helps us find stability within restrictions.
Creative Solutions: Constraints can inspire creativity. Look for innovative ways to navigate and transcend your boundaries.
Root Center Influence: The Root Center is the motor that drives us to overcome challenges and grow. Gate 60 channels this pressure into practical solutions.
Appropriate Pressure: Understand that not all pressure is bad. Learn to gauge how much pressure works for you and use it to fuel your progress.
3. Gene Keys: Shadow, Gift, and Siddhi of Key 60
The Gene Keys offer a deeper layer of understanding with the three frequencies of Gate 60: the Shadow, the Gift, and the Siddhi.
Shadow - Limitation:
Experience: Feeling confined, restricted, or trapped by circumstances.

Gift - Realism:

Reflection: How can you ground your visions into tangible actions? What practical steps can you take to move forward?
Siddhi - Justice:
Experience: Aligning with the natural laws and cosmic order, finding true balance and harmony.
Reflection: How can you align your actions with the greater good? In what ways can you contribute to a just and harmonious world?
Bringing It All Together
This Full Moon in Capricorn, coupled with the teachings of Gate 60 and the insights of the Gene Keys, offers a unique opportunity for deep transformation. Remember, not all pressure is bad – it's about learning how much pressure is appropriate for us and using it to fuel our growth.
Mercury Rx Shadow (July 17)
We are all too familiar with Mercury Retrograde, and for some of us, its shadow phase is equally significant and often overlooked. The shadow phase occurs twice: before Mercury goes retrograde and after it turns direct.
Pre-Shadow Phase: This begins about two weeks before Mercury actually goes retrograde. During this time, Mercury starts slowing down and begins covering the degrees of the zodiac it will later revisit during the retrograde. This phase is a time of foreshadowing; you may start noticing minor communication glitches, travel delays, or revisiting past issues. It's a preparatory period, offering a glimpse into the themes and challenges that will be prominent during the retrograde itself.
Post-Shadow Phase: This starts once Mercury turns direct and continues for about two weeks as it retraces its steps through the zodiac. During this time, the issues and challenges that arose during the retrograde period begin to resolve. It's a time for integrating lessons learned, finalizing decisions, and moving forward with a clearer understanding. The post-shadow phase allows for closure and the implementation of insights gained during the retrograde.
Key Themes of Mercury Retrograde's Shadow:
Reflection and Review: Both shadow phases are ideal times for introspection and reviewing plans, communications, and projects.
Subtle Signs: Pay attention to subtle signs and minor issues that arise; they may become more significant during the retrograde.
Preparation and Resolution: The pre-shadow phase is for preparation, while the post-shadow phase focuses on resolution and moving forward.
