Gate 2 · G Center (Identity)

The Inner Compass

I Ching Hexagram 2, The Receptive · traditionally called “Direction of the Self”

Theme

A sense of direction that is received from within rather than chased.

In plain language

Direction that surfaces as a felt "this way" when you stop forcing and let life orient you.

Gift & shadow

A natural inner orientation; the shadow is feeling lost when cut off from that receptive knowing.

A reflection prompt

When have I known my direction without being able to explain how?
