Okay, unfortunately, it\u2019s not quite that simple, because there is room for interpretation in the messages of the I Ching. You do need some practice to interpret the messages correctly.
Most phases of life<\/strong> are activated by what is known as a return<\/em>.
A return<\/em> occurs when a planet is once again in exactly the same position as it was at the time of your birth.
Alright, now I\u2019m getting to the point.<\/p>\n
The following overview shows the major cycles of life<\/strong>.<\/p>\n You can also find this image in my blog post: The Incarnation Cross in Human Design<\/a><\/p>\n The Incarnation Cross describes your life purpose<\/strong> and, as indicated in the image above, influences your entire life. From around age 50, you can slowly start thinking about actively engaging with your life purpose. Before that, it\u2019s more about understanding where the journey is heading. Seriously\u2014this is about healing the greatest wound of your life<\/strong>. You can read more about this fascinating topic in my blog post: Chiron, Human Design, and the 12 Life Cycles in Your Career.<\/a> <\/p>\n From the second Saturn return<\/em>, around the age of 59, you can finally start to lean back and gradually hand over responsibility. Now relaxation may slowly set in. Phew\u2026 To find this out\u2014ideally sooner rather than later\u2014you can book a Human Design Reading<\/a> with me. We can also place a special focus on your current phase of life.<\/strong> <\/p>\n Get in touch\u2014I\u2019m looking forward to hearing from you.

<\/p>\n
But don\u2019t get the idea that you need to fulfill this purpose as quickly as possible\u2014preferably before you attend your first 50th birthday party. <\/p>\n
From birth until around age 30<\/strong>, the main focus is simply on discovering life<\/strong>.
From the first return<\/em>\u2014the first Saturn return<\/em>\u2014it\u2019s about taking responsibility for your own life. Saturn demands discipline.
During the Uranus opposition<\/em> (in an opposition<\/em>, the planet reaches the peak of its journey back toward its original position), the midlife crisis<\/strong> comes into play\u2014more intensely for some, less so for others.
At its core, this phase is about major change in the middle of life: saying goodbye to illusions<\/strong>, while unfulfilled wishes and longings rise to the surface. Unconsciously, it\u2019s about approaching the Chiron return<\/em> in order to attain mastery in life<\/strong>.
Oh come on<\/strong>\u2026 not just because you finally get to attend your first 50th birthday party.<\/p>\n
Of course, you can still pursue a profession at this stage. Ideally, one that truly fulfills you.<\/strong><\/p>\n
