Completing the Balance: Lessons from Early 2025's Eclipse Energy

Alright, deep breath—this week, we’re diving into the energy of Gate 21, and if you’ve been feeling the pull between control and surrender, you’re not alone.

This isn’t about power struggles—it’s about mastery. True mastery isn’t about force; it’s about trust. It’s about knowing when to take the reins and when to release your grip. And with the Sun highlighting this energy, it’s time to take a deeper look at where control serves you—and where it’s actually holding you back.

Think of it as an energetic tune-up for your sense of worth, power, and trust. Where are you gripping too tightly? Where do you actually need more structure? And most importantly—do you trust yourself enough to let go?

Let’s explore what Gate 21 is bringing to the surface.

Gate 21: The Gate of the Huntress

Gate 21 carries the energy of control, mastery, and personal power. It’s the drive to manage resources, create stability, and take charge in ways that benefit not just you, but everyone around you. This is the energy of the leader, the protector, the one who ensures things are running smoothly.

But here’s the thing—when this energy is out of balance, it can lead to control issues, scarcity mindset, and resistance to trusting others (or even the Universe). If you’ve been clinging to control in relationships, finances, business, or self-image, this transit is inviting you to loosen your grip and redefine what true power means.

Because real power? It’s not about force. It’s about alignment. It’s about knowing when to act and when to trust.

💡 Your lesson: Mastery isn’t about control—it’s about trust. Trusting yourself. Trusting your value. Trusting that what’s meant for you is already on its way.

✨ Contemplation questions:

• In which areas of my life do I crave more control or autonomy?
• What action can I take to gain a greater sense of command in these areas?
• In which areas do I need to release control?
• What’s one small step I can take to ease my grip and put more trust in others (or the Universe)?

📝 Journal it out:

• Where do I need to release control in my life?
• Do I trust the Universe?
• Do I value myself? Do I trust that I’ll be supported in accordance with my value?
• What do I need to do to create an internal and external environment of self-generosity?
• What needs to be healed, released, aligned, and brought to my awareness for me to embrace my true value?

Embracing the Energy of the Moment

This week is about reclaiming your power in a way that feels aligned, not forced. It’s about knowing when to step up and when to surrender.

✨ Gate 21 reminds you that true power is found in trust.

✨ It’s not about controlling everything—it’s about managing your energy wisely, knowing your worth, and trusting that you are supported.

What’s shifting for you? What’s ready to be released?

This is your invitation to step into a deeper sense of trust, to release what no longer serves, and to own your worth—without gripping too tightly.

Until next time, trust, surrender, and step into your power. 💫✨
