The Grace of Acceptance

Gate 60 - Limitation

“The acceptance of limitation is the first step in transcendence” - Ra Uru Hu

Now the Sun has reached its very last step around the wheel, the Human Design mandala, so it arrives at Gate 60 – the Gate of Limitation. This energy often feels like pressure, a final stress, a last push. But for me, it feels more like an invitation to stop pushing altogether.

This year has been a great learning for me, in a quiet, deeply personal way. I learned who I am, and just as importantly, who I am not. I learned what I truly want, and what I only thought I wanted. Where I actually have influence, and where I don’t.

And it’s amazing how clearly life simplifies when you recognize your true self. So many old beliefs fell away. Incorrect desires disappear. False identity images brake down. I always wanted to be seen, to be known, to become famous, like many of us do. I also wanted money, success, recognition. But standing here now, at this point in my life, I realize something simpler and more honest, that what I truly want is freedom. Freedom from very the structured systems. Freedom from masks. Freedom to be who I am, without pretending. Freedom to have fun and enjoy life, even when life feels mediocre, boring, or pale from the outside, I just wanna love it. And last but not least, Freedom to be seen as who I am, and not as who I am not.

Gate 60 speaks about limitation, and this limitation can be in space, time, and matter and in between, or even in mind. And this limitation is not always something to overcome. Sometimes it’s something to recognize and accept.

For example, my current physical location, where I am living. There are moments when it feels very limiting. And yet I know, with full certainty, that I am exactly where I need to be right now to encounter and absorb the information that truly matters to me (like the Three Principles and Human Design - I am sure i had to move to Ireland in order to meet and learn about these teaching). But accepting this current limitation, instead of fighting it, might actually help me move forward faster… or at least in the direction I am meant to go.

It is so interesting, and coincide that I just listened to Richard Feynman speak about time, and it completely blew my mind. Again, I had to be in the moment to encounter with this info. He explained that time doesn’t actually exist in the way we think it does. Life is not something that unfolds moment by moment in a straight line by time. Instead, reality/life exists as a block, a block of the universe, where past, present, and future all exist at once.

Time, he said, is just a coordinate. The NOW is just a coordinate in the space-time. That nothing is moving forward. We are simply moving within this block. We experience life as a path (time) because our human brain cannot see into the future. It can only remember the past — the parts of the path we have already walked. But the trajectory exists. The coordinates are already there, and you move along this path.

Funny enough, Human Design speaks about this too. About trajectories. About geometry, and everyone has one since birth. About how the body, the mind, and the life path are already mapped — not as fate in a rigid sense, but as a structure we move through.

So this made me ask a different question, instead of trying to control life… instead of pushing so hard against our limitations… What if we simply accepted them?

If physics, Feynman, and Human Design are even partially right, then our life already exists. We just haven’t reached certain coordinates yet. And maybe the struggle comes not from limitation itself, but from resisting what already is.

What if limitation is not a punishment, but a stabilizing force?
What if it’s not here to block us, but to slow us down enough to see clearly?

From this perspective, surrendering to limitation doesn’t make you weaker, smaller, or less than. Instead it expands consciousness. It softens the fight. And from that higher vantage point, it becomes easier to see that life is not happening against you but for you.

Gate 60 feels like the final invitation of the year:
Let go of what you’re still trying to force.
Accept where you are and what you are.
Trust your life trajectory.

And from that acceptance, allow life to unfold, without pushing so hard.

The true freedom doesn’t come from breaking limits. It comes from recognizing which limits are actually holding you exactly where you need to be.

And from there… everything can change and the new cycle can began.
