(in)consistency is key

the rhythms of Gate 15

This week, the Sun is lighting up Gate 15, known as the Gate of Extremes. This gate holds the energy of diverse rhythms, big energy swings, and the permission to live in ways that don’t always make sense to others (but make perfect sense to you).

Gate 15 people don’t do well with rigid structure. You’re not meant to wake up at 6:30, meditate for 15 minutes, eat the same smoothie every day, and hit the gym on a set schedule for eternity. Your rhythm is your own, and it might shift daily. And that’s not something to “fix” or change, it’s something to embrace. This gate is about embracing life’s extremes and the natural ebb and flow of your energy. Some days you’re deep in it—creating, moving, connecting. Other days, you need space, silence, or solitude. And that’s not inconsistent, it’s who you are.

There’s also a strong humanitarian vibe here. This gate lives in the G Center, the place of love, identity, and direction. When you live in sync with your own rhythm, you naturally invite others to do the same. You give permission to the world around you to break out of rigidity and lean into authenticity.

When Gate 15 is undefined in your chart, you may feel extra sensitive to the pace and patterns of others. You might try to adopt someone else’s routine thinking, “Okay, THIS is the structure I need.” But then two days later, you’re like… “Why can’t I keep up with this?!” It’s not that you’re failing. It’s that you’re absorbing rhythms that don’t belong to you.

This week, give yourself the grace to notice what actually feels supportive for you. You’re not meant to force yourself into someone else’s timeline. Watch where you’re trying to match other people’s pace and give yourself permission to go your own way. You may also be someone who does better with a routine; feel into what feels right for you.

If you have Gate 15 defined in your chart, you’re here to embrace and embody the full spectrum of human experience. You are the energy of variety. You might naturally do things in your own way, and maybe that’s looked “inconsistent” or “extreme” to others in the past. But truthfully? It’s your gift.

You move through life with a deep understanding that there’s not one right way to do things. That kind of flexibility is powerful, especially in a world that tries to box us into routines. Your job isn’t to conform, but it’s to show us all that freedom is found in honouring our own pace.

This week is an invitation to lean into that even more. What rhythms actually support you? What structures are you still holding onto out of guilt or pressure? Your wildness is your wisdom.

My Contemplation’s:

Human Design can teach us SO many things (if you didn’t realize that yet pleaseeeee come follow me over on IG). One of these things being if you are meant to be consistent or a little more go with the flow. There is an area of our chart that literally shows if we are consistent or inconsistent beings, which in turn can be a very in-depth and nuanced part of our chart, so I won’t go too deep into this at the moment. However, there are other pieces of the chart that can help us see if we are meant to have more of a routine versus moving differently each day — and that includes the beautiful Gate 15. Even if you are a “consistent” being, but you have Gate 15 defined, you are meant to find your own path, to march to the beat of your own drum, to figure out what consistency means to you.

Me on the other hand, I have a lot of consistent energy in my chart AND my Gate 15 is undefined. I can get very caught up in this conditioning that I should be doing life a certain way because others say I should. This week feels like a beautiful nudge to look inwards at our daily routines (or lack thereof) to see what really feels right for us. This is not about looking to others, but it’s about feeling what is correct for you. This is a great time to reassess your day to day and how your energy feels when you are operating to your best ability. This can also be a great time to dive deeper into your chart to see— “am I meant to be more consistent, or more go with the flow”?, “where does Gate 15 fit into my unique chart”? If you desire to dive deeper this week, send me a message on Instagram and let’s chat!

Ways to work with Gate 15 in your own life:

1. Ditch the guilt around inconsistency: It’s okay if your morning looks different every day this week (and, maybe always). Find what feels right and easeful for you

2. Make space for extremes: Need to do everything one day and nothing the next? Let that be okay, make room for your energy as it is.

3. Create flexible structure: Instead of rigid schedules, try using themes or energy-based goals: “What would feel nourishing this morning?” vs. “I must follow this exact checklist.”

4. Honour all parts of you: You don’t have to be one way or the other; both can exist in harmony, just not always at the same time.

5. Teach through your lived experience. People learn from watching you own your rhythm without apology.

Journal Prompts to dive into:

• What does my natural rhythm look like right now, and where am I resisting it?

• Where in my life am I craving more freedom or flexibility?

• What “shoulds” or external timelines am I holding onto that no longer feel aligned?

• How do I feel when I allow myself to swing between extremes without judgment?

• What might I teach others through living in alignment with my own pace?

Whether your Gate 15 is defined or undefined, this week’s energy is nudging us all to break free from rigidity and reconnect with our own authentic rhythm. You don’t need to “get it together.” You just need to tune in to your own beat.
