This week, I’ve felt the energy of Gate 35 moving through me more intensely than usual—not just as a concept I teach or write about, but as a very real, pulsing force inside my body and heart. In Human Design, Gate 35 lives in the Throat Center, and its essence is all about change, experience, and the hunger for something more.
But what happens when that “hunger” isn’t about chasing a new destination—but about expressing something that’s already been quietly living within?
Lately, I’ve felt an undeniable urge to share more of my personal healing journey, my poetry, and even the art that’s been tucked away in sketchbooks and journals for far too long. There’s something deeply raw and real bubbling to the surface. And it feels like Gate 35 is the energy inviting it all to emerge—not for the sake of being seen, but for the sake of being free.
This gate doesn’t show up the same for everyone. Its influence can touch every corner of your life:
- In relationships, it might look like craving more depth, passion, or honesty—and feeling deeply dissatisfied if conversations feel surface-level or stagnant.
- In your work, it may stir a desire to shift directions, pivot offerings, or start a creative project you’ve been afraid to begin.
- In your body, it can feel like restlessness, fatigue, or even burnout when you’re doing too much and not feeding your soul.
- In your spirituality, it can lead to questioning: Am I going through the motions? What is truly calling me now?
- In your emotions, it can feel like longing, frustration, or impatience… or the beautiful ache of knowing you’re ready for something new—even if you don’t know what it is yet.
For me, this week, Gate 35 feels like a soft internal whisper becoming a steady drumbeat. It’s asking me to let go of polished perfection and show up as I am. To create for the sake of joy, not outcome. To express what’s inside, even when it’s messy.
I’ve danced with the shadow of hunger before—the kind that leaves you chasing one certification, one project, one transformation after another. It’s seductive. You tell yourself it’s growth, but sometimes it’s just escape.
Gate 35 has shown me that not every experience needs to be a breakthrough. Some moments are meant to be savored. Some adventures are internal. Some stories are meant to be shared before they’re finished.
This week, I’m letting that lesson land in my body.
I’m choosing to:
- Post a poem even if it feels too vulnerable.
- Share a piece of art without overthinking whether it’s “good enough.”
- Write honestly about my healing—not just what’s resolved, but what’s still raw.
- Trust that someone, somewhere, needs to see someone else being real.
Gate 35 has always been about change—but sometimes the biggest change is letting yourself be seen as you are.
I used to run
toward the edge of the map—
believing the farthest place from pain
was forward.
Fast.
Daring.
Dazzling.
Different.
But now—
I stand still.
In the middle of the ache.
In the trembling yes.
In the moment that doesn’t need fixing.
This week, adventure isn’t an escape.
It’s an arrival.
To the breath I abandoned
while trying to be better.
To the art I hushed
when I thought I wasn’t enough.
To the story in my scars
I once tried to rewrite with someone else’s pen.
It’s daring to be seen
while still unsure.
It’s letting the cracked-open version of me
be the one who speaks.
Who paints.
Who posts.
Who prays.
The risk isn’t in leaving anymore—
It’s in staying.
With my feelings.
With my fire.
With the fragile magic that rises
when I stop pretending I don’t care.
So this week, I listen.
Not to the call of more—
but to the whisper of enough.
This is the adventure I choose:
the one where softness leads.
Where expression heals.
Where I don’t have to be whole
to be worthy.
Just honest.
Just here.
Just me.
If you’re feeling that restless itch this week too, ask yourself:
- What am I hungry for—and is it coming from my soul or my wounds?
- Is there something I’ve been waiting to share, but fear is holding me back?
- What would it feel like to treat this week as an adventure in authenticity?
You don’t have to write a book or launch something massive. Maybe it’s just saying the truer thing in a conversation. Maybe it’s dancing in your kitchen. Maybe it’s letting someone in.
This is a week for honest self-expression. For trusting your internal rhythm. For letting your life be art in motion.
And if you want support navigating your own journey—especially when the hunger gets loud—I’d love to walk that path with you.
