20 minutes for yourself

+ get a sense of direction

Whether it’s your first time trying such a thing, or you already are a daily journal person, it will bring you a sense of direction.

• “What did I want 5 years ago?”

• “What did I want 6 months ago?”

• “What do I want now?”

• “How do I want to feel?“

• “What do I think I’ll want in 5 years’ time?”

How to:

— Bring pen-to-paper: grab your notebook, and start. Set a timer if you don’t want to be carried away (5 minutes each).

— Use this free Notion template and start typing. It’s best if you’re on the go, don’t have a notebook handy, and want to start writing as soon as possible because you feel inspired to!

A bit of context and why those 5 questions can lead you a long way, especially if answered within the next few days:

Today, the Sun entered Gate 41.

This is where the Human Design year begins: Gene Key 41 is starting a sequence.

• Last January 1st, I don’t know about you, but I was not ready to sit down and create my vision book for the year. Even Shaping the Future, my signature workbook (and also a Notion Template) felt “too soon" to be done.

• The past four weeks felt like a cosmic pregnancy, a time to let things grow within, nurture oneself, and nest… so that now we are getting ready to give birth to our dreams.

• Gate 41 is the Gate of Contraction, and for the next five days, we are collectively bathing in this energy that allows us to work with our hearts and mind and start pushing. It’s the impulse to bring something new or do something in a new way. It’s also associated with this Aquarian vibe, as it marks the beginning of the Aquarius season.

• And… Gate 41 is also my conscious Sun (i.e the most potent gift and purpose in your life, what you are here to embody, in a way that only you can). My birthday is January 24th, so every year around that date, I feel that my New Year is actually starting…

• As a collective, we will be under this influence for the next 5 days. It’s a great time for anything big vision, intention setting, future visioning, vision book crafting, Pinterest mood board, dreams list, etc.

I wish you a blissful New Year,

Ardas Chandra
