Welcome to your weekly Cycles of Time forecast for February 3-9, 2025. This week's astrological, human design, and other energetic themes center on deep listening, truth-telling, and radical transformation. With the Sun activating Human Design Gate 13 (The Listener) from Monday-Friday, February is beginning with an invitation to hold space for others and listen with empathy, keep your ear to the ground with compassionate neutrality, and recognize the power of shared stories. This weekend, the shift into Gate 49 (Revolution) sparks a call for change—dismantling outdated structures, standing firm in our values, and embracing necessary upheaval to align with greater integrity. As key planetary transits like Neptune conjunct the North Node amplify these energies, we are encouraged to tune into inner wisdom, discern what is worth keeping, and courageously release what no longer serves. I probably don't need to say it, but this is a time of deep inner work and collective evolution. Revolutions are natural processes of upgrading outdated structures, and timing, internal clarity, and deep listening are vital.

Welcome to your weekly Cycles of Time forecast for January 27-February 2, 2025.

This week, we kick off with the auspicious Lunar New Year on Wednesday, January 29th marked by a New Moon in Aquarius, welcoming the Year of the Wood Snake. This transition signifies a shift from the dynamic energy of the Wood Dragon to the wisdom-laden, introspective essence of the Wood Snake. Midweek, we navigate through Pluto's entry into Gate 41, marking the end of a 248-year cycle and signaling new beginnings. This week is also marked by Uranus stationing direct in Taurus, amplifying Aquarian themes of innovation and interconnection.

Additionally, we explore the celebration of Imbolc on February 1st, a pagan festival symbolizing the return of light and the anticipation of spring. As always, we draw connections between these observances and the insights offered by the I Ching and Human Design systems, with a particular focus on Gate 19, the Gate of Wanting, guiding us through themes of empathy, interconnection, and longing.

Join me as we unravel the rich tapestry of wisdom from different traditions and tune into the energies of the week to navigate our shared journey around the sun.

In this week's episode of Cycles of Time, host Alison Dale delves into the astrological and societal shifts marking January 20th to 27th, 2025.

Alison opens up about her personal struggles with media consumption due to the overwhelming global events, and transitions into discussing the importance of this particular week in human design and astrology.

Amidst a significant historical moment with the United States presidential inauguration, we explore the conjunction of Pluto and the Sun in Aquarius on Tuesday the 21st, a potent culmination of a 248-year cycle since the country's founding. Alison reflects on the broader theme of American exceptionalism and the limitations that that ideology is currently facing, urging listeners to embrace the cycles of transformation and innovation that define Aquarius season.

She also touches upon the viral cultural phenomenon of American TikTok users migrating to Xiaohongshu, a Chinese social media app, following the TikTok ban, emphasizing the unexpected and poignant aspects of this cross-cultural exchange. Throughout, Alison connects these current events to broader astrological and human design themes, setting the stage for the upcoming Human Design "Rave New Year" on Wednesday the 22nd, beginning with the sun's entrance into the Gate of Contraction (Gate 41).

This episode offers a rich blend of personal reflection, cultural commentary, and astrological insights, inviting listeners to navigate these transformative times with hope and creativity.

Join Alison as she helps us understand the complexities of these cycles and how they shape our collective journey forward.

As we approach the New Year, we'll reflect on the current Capricorn season's insights, including the transition from the Gate of Self-Love to the Gate of Vitality.
