I’ve got a deeply personal journey to share today. (Seriously, are you ready to listen to me cry?)

If you’ve been here a while, you know that things have been shifting since the beginning of the year. To be brutally honest, this has been the hardest and one of the most transformative years of my life.

And, not so coincidentally, this year has been in my nodal return. Don’t know what that is? Stick with me — I’ll explain in this episode.

In your Human Design chart, the North and South Nodes are the horseshoe-shaped glyphs in the side columns, and they have gates assigned to them like all the planets.

And a nodal return is when the nodes come back to the same point they were when you were born.

So today I’m talking about my North and South Nodes and the evolution I’ve seen in myself with the energy of my nodal gates — things like:

  • the gate that's responsible for my massive emotional highs and lows this year
  • how I’m moving away from codependence and forcing intimacy to feel self-worth
  • my North Node’s theme of moving from emotional dependence to abundance, and how I can use it to stop judging my own feelings
  • and basically my entire freaking JOURNEY to surrender and self-trust this year

FYI, I have the same gates — 59 for the South Node and 55 for the North Node — on both my design and personality side, so double the energy, lucky me!

You might want to grab your chart to follow along, especially if you have gates 55 or 59 anywhere in your bodygraph.
