A simple, mythic guide to emotional weather in True Sidereal Human Design

 

The Moon is the fastest‑moving force in the sky. It moves through every Law Key in the wheel each month, spending only 10–12 hours in each one. This is why your emotional tone, clarity, intuition, and inner focus shift throughout the day.

The Moon doesn’t change who you are. It changes what your body pays attention toThis is your emotional weather. And when you understand the Moon’s movement through the Law Keys — using the ancient I Ching, the Greek gods, and the Quarter Generals — you begin to feel the sky in your body, not your mind.

This week, the Moon moves through a powerful sequence of Law Keys that form a three‑act emotional storyLet’s walk through it.
