Summary:

In this preview-style episode of Midlife by Human Design, Lori introduces a brand-new way to plan your life using Human Design gate transits—think astrology forecasts, but far more precise.

Focusing on the Sun’s movement through Gates 11, 10, 58, and 38, Lori walks you through the energetic “weather” shaping the rest of December and the threshold into 2026. You’ll learn how each gate influences your ideas, self-trust, joy, and sense of purpose—and how to work with these energies instead of pushing against them during an already full season.

This episode is also a sneak peek into what’s coming inside Lori’s Planning by Design system and private monthly gate transit podcast, created to help midlife women plan their weeks and seasons in a way that actually supports their energy.

If you’re Human Design–curious, spiritually grounded but practical, and tired of planning systems that fall apart by midweek, this episode offers a gentler, more aligned approach to closing out the year—and stepping into what’s next.

Key Takeaways:

• Why gate transits act like energetic weather and how to use them for weekly planning

• How Gate 11 helps you capture ideas without forcing action

• Why Gate 10 is especially potent during the holidays (hello, people-pleasing)

• How Gate 58 invites joy, vitality, and micro-wins 

• What Gate 38 asks you to clarify as you cross from 2025 into 2026

• How transits temporarily activate energy you may not have defined in your chart

• A simple way to experiment with each gate
