This is the energy of spiritual disruption. It doesn't exist to maintain peace. It exists to awaken potential. Gate 39 stirs discomfort because it wants to reveal the truth, truth you've buried, truth that others avoid, truth that makes transformation inevitable. Welcome to the traveling hypnotist podcast, the ultimate destination to elevate your life through the power of travel, modern hypnosis, neuroscience and time tested wellness practices. I'm Nicole Hernandez, the traveling hypnotist. All right, it's time to journey within and go beyond. This is the human design frequency forecast for gate 39 July 1 through the sixth, 2025, this is all about your energetic guidance via human design. And at the end, you'll see some creative visibility prompts to help you show up and flow according to gate 39 if we haven't met before. My name is Nicole Hernandez. I am a top clinical hypnotist in New York City at the Four Seasons, and I'm also a success coach a frequency theme the gate of provocation. The sun is making its transit through gate 39 the gate of provocation in human design and obstruction in the I Ching. It brings pressure from the root Center, which is designed to poke and trigger and agitate, but with purpose. This is the energy of spiritual disruption. It doesn't exist to maintain peace. It exists to awaken potential. Gate 39 stirs discomfort because it wants to reveal the truth, truth you've buried, truth that others avoid, truth that makes transformation inevitable. This energy actually reminds me a lot of my college boyfriend. He was brilliant, handsome and really annoying at times. He was the kind of guy who could take apart a computer just for fun, and also take apart your political arguments just as easily. He loved to debate, not in a pompous I know better than you wake but in a genuinely curious, let's go deeper kind of way. He pushed my buttons constantly, especially when I was exhausted from pulling all nighters and the last thing I wanted to do was have a philosophical, deep dive over coffee, but looking back, I see how he really helped me sharpen my thinking. He challenged my assumptions, and most importantly, he helped me laugh when I was taking everything, including myself, way too seriously. And that's really the essence of gate 39 it's not here to tiptoe around your feelings, but when you meet it with self awareness and heart, it doesn't come to tear you down. It becomes a mirror, not a weapon. It truly reflects what matters, and it helps you see what's ready to change, and reminds you growth doesn't always feel gentle, that it always frees you. What this transit brings to the party, whether you RSVP or not. This is the second week in a row of the roots under pressure, and it is loud, it is pushing. Do you feel it? You might feel the urge to finally get your shit together. You might be thinking, oh, gosh, I guess I finally need to book that mammogram and the colonoscopy and stop putting stuff off right. You might even be looking at your calendar noticing that half of 2025, is over. How did that happen? And asking yourself, Am I still aligned with what I said I wanted? Where am I going? And why do I keep getting in my way? And if that last one is you, you might want to think about high frequency success coaching. You might also be noticing emotional tension, sudden roadblocks or inner conflict is rising. But here's the thing I want you to remember, it's not here to break you, but to reveal what's overdue for a shift. I've seen this pressurized energy a lot in client sessions over the last two weeks, as more by high achievers are realizing that they need to address the subconscious beliefs that are holding them back. And honestly, sometimes what we need to address isn't so pretty. For example, maybe you've chosen to repeat dating and relationship patterns over and over and over for the last. 20 years just thinking, Oh, at some point it's going to change. And yet, you find yourself in the same predicament, in the same outcome, and we have to confront the shadows if we really want to be able to move forward. So gate 39 it's not going to let you make shallow surface changes. No, it's a friction that forces you to stop spiritually bypassing and meet your emotional edges head on. And look, I know it's challenging. I'm personally working through some of this myself, the growth edges, looking at where I have not been able to move forward. And when we start working on those things, oh my goodness, it can change so quickly. And in fact, I just was talking to a client this week who's already seeing major changes in her relationships, even after her second session, she said, I feel good with him. There's no drama, there's no chaos. It just feels mature. Now, if gate 39 is defined in your chart, you are a catalyst. I wish you to hear that again. You are a catalyst. You carry this energy of spiritual provocation. You have the gift of waking people up, pushing them out of emotional numbness and into a more creative, powerful version of themselves. Your superpower is you can see where people are stuck and spark a shift with just a few words. Now some guidance here, you do work best when invited to challenge others. Otherwise, you might burn some bridges instead of igniting their creative spark. Then your growth edge here is that you're not responsible for others emotions, but you are responsible for your intention. So if you are poking, do it for their highest good, not to boost your ego. And if you are shrinking, also be aware of that you're not really stepping into this energy in the shadow, gate 39 can become very egoic. It picks fights. It's forcing opinions, or it's using its bluntness to control it can even spur anger and violence. Seems like there's a lot of gate 39 energy going around. What do you think? But in its high expression. You're a truth teller, you're a spiritual instigator, you're a guide who challenges people into becoming more of who they really are. Isn't that beautiful? Now the frequency spectrum of gate 39 now let's look at how gate 39 shows up in its full range. And remember, there's no judging. Here. We have the choice to turn up or turn down our frequency. It is not stagnant, low frequency. Number one, you take responsibility for others' emotions, becoming a people pleaser because you aren't saying what needs to be said, and you cower from confrontation. So just notice, if that is the space that you live in. Number two, you take things too personally. You have a hard time laughing at yourself or having anyone point out your quirks or even your flaws. Now this was me for most of my teenage years, in my early 20s, so insecure. Number three, you could be blunt telling others how they are headed down the wrong path in a way that just pushes them away. Four, you're trapped in a frequency of lack and scarcity, and you're always finding fault, faults in everything, faults in what people say, faults in what people do, faults in just the day, is just not working out for you. And so it's feeling it like you're always in conflict with the world. Number five, provoking people to get a rise out of them, rather than for their highest good. So you look to create conflict. You like to ruffle people's feathers. You want to prove a point, and you want to teach somebody a lesson. All low frequency. Six, you're using your words or actions as a violence towards others that's emotionally or physically abusive, and it's the worst part of this. Gate number seven, you say second your opinion, you're unwilling to consider new perspectives. Now, even though gate 39 does have the ability to confront it. It wants to learn more, right? It wants to be open to new perspectives. It just wants to have a good argument, a good debate. It wants to really know that you know what you're talking about. So just be aware if you are someone who maybe has very set beliefs, but then you're completely shutting anything else out. And number eight, you're fatigued and allowing yourself to feel trapped, rather than stepping into this to the creative solution that this energy holds for you. So again, going back to that lack mentality, but you're just not even open to the creative solutions that are here, that are available. And you. Just feel withered down and broken down the high frequency. Number one, you take responsibility for your emotions. Number two, you are not afraid to share the hard truth with people in order to inspire them to a higher level of spirit. You can lovingly show others where they need to shift. Number three, you just know you're a catalyst for change, and you were solid in that knowing and that almost makes you feel invincible at times. And number four, you strive to initiate meaningful conversations and inspire others to view things from all different angles and all different perspective. You can really navigate an entire group, if you like, and help them see different ways of being, and that can be really transformational for others. Now, the energetic Tip of the Week, track your trigger. So this is an actual task that I give some of my private clients this week. When something or someone pushes your buttons, don't brush it off. I want you to track it. Ask yourself, what is this reaction trying to teach me? Is it pointing to an old wound? Is it a boundary that needs to be strengthened? Is it a fear that's finally ready to be released? And I want to talk to this last one, because there are so many people that try to avoid any triggers, and I really like to think if there is a trigger that is there, it means that it's ready to be transformed. It's ready to change that you have the ability to change it, and just knowing that and believing that gives you more power to actually change that old trigger. Because triggers aren't problems, they're an invitation to return to your power. All right, let's get visible gate. 39 content props this week challenges us to consider how we handle conflict and confrontation, and here are some prompts to try in your own content. Number one, I said something recently that triggered someone, but it was true. Here's how I handled their reaction. So this one's a really great opening for teaching how to hold emotional space while staying rooted in integrity and in your emotional maturity. Number two, here's one truth I avoided sharing because I knew it would shake things up, and why I finally said it anyway. Now this invites a bold story and positions you as a leader who that who values growth over comfort. And number three, I've learned to tell the difference between provoking just to be heard and provoking to heal, and this is what that looks like for me now. So share your evolution with this energy and what shifted in your tone, your delivery, or maybe your audience, that allowed you to be able to move into the space where you actually are connecting and not aggravating. Number four, there was a moment when someone pushed my buttons, and I've could have overreacted, but instead talk about how you took the high road. This is really about showing how you grown in your response to conflict or emotional discomfort and what came out of it, what was the result? People love stories like this and the last one here. I used to think my intensity was something to fix, but now I see it as one of the most powerful tools in my work. So this is perfect. If gate 39 is your energy, this is really about owning who you are. So it's a perfect reframe for emotional charge, for passion, or seeing your death as a gift instead of a liability. Don't fight the energy. Stay in flow. Just a final reminder, gate 39 isn't here to play nice. It's here to liberate just in time for the Fourth of July. Let it stretch you. Let it provoke you into becoming who you were always meant to be. Because when used with intention, this energy doesn't just disrupt it rewires your entire life.
