Transit Talk: Sun in Gate 4 / Earth in Gate 49

Theme: Grounded Rebellion: From Intolerance to Forgiveness

This week on Transit Talk, we explore the 4/49 energy — where mental solutions meet principled revolution.

Gate 4 brings the pursuit of answers, logic, and understanding. Gate 49 brings revolutionary activism rooted in values, not just reaction. Together, they invite us to question whether the answers we’re chasing align with our principles — and to recognize that forgiveness doesn’t always mean access.

We share personal stories, from Jane Fonda’s red coat activism to the Costco chicken & waffles moment, and explore how this transit calls for understanding as the bridge between intolerance and forgiveness. We also touch on the Schumann Resonance, upcoming changes to the 49/19 connection, and the week’s cosmic weather forecast.
