In this episode of the Cycles of Time podcast, Alison Dale explores the Human Design Gates of Cancer season, weaving together insights from the I Ching, Human Design, and Gene Keys. She delves into the archetype of the crab, discussing its evolution, emotional intelligence, and the significance of each gate during this season. The conversation highlights the importance of stillness, storytelling, and the duality of experiences as we navigate our emotional landscapes.
In the Human Design Mandala, based on the Fuxi sequence of the ancient I’Ching, or Book of Changes, the 6 gates/hexagrams that correspond with Cancer season are: 15 (Extremes), 52 (Stillness), 39 (Provocation), 53 (Beginnings), 62 (Details), and 56 (Stimulation/Storytelling). As the sun an other planets transit through the part of the sky known as Cancer, these changing energies can be felt in the collective.
