combatting conditioning | jupiter in gate 24 | february 3rd - march 11, 2024

Welcome to Combatting Conditioning, a brand new series from me, Jaclyn Michelle of interior creature.

Periodically, I'll be popping onto the blog to zoom in on a major gate transit and sharing some journal prompts for effective shadow work & deep de-conditioning.

Yesterday, February 3rd, Jupiter moved into Gate 24, The Gate of Rationalization, which is ruled by Taurus and lives in the Mind Center. This gate asks us to get honest about our conditioned habits, patterns, beliefs, and behaviors around how we learn and create knowledge, as well as how we share what we know and understand with the world.

the work | Life as a Process of Becoming

I built the karmic studies | elevator specifically so you DON'T have to burn it all down. Instead, we're going to light a series of small (metaphorical) cleansing fires 🔥 to light our way & clear room for the process of BECOMING.

Inside the elevator, we use the birth charts as both a map & a fresh perspective from which to view ourselves. We get curious about our patterns and their sources. And we bring what we find out of the brain & into the body to catalyze that beautiful process of BECOMING✨

shadow work x human design

I define "shadow work" as a practice of self-examination anchored in the core values of curiosity, compassion, and creation.

When we engage in shadow work, we bring into the light the "darkest" parts of ourselves, the parts we might prefer to keep hidden away. These dark parts, these unconscious behaviors and conditioned mindsets, are often rooted in fear, hurt, and anger, and trap us in patterns of self-sabotage and self-abandonment.

When we engage in a shadow work practice, by choosing to bring our attention and awareness to all of the conditioning and programming we've taken on over the course of our lives, we begin to strip those patterns of their power, and make room for more peace, more joy, and more genuine connection.
