Self knowledge and gate 8.

The current transits:

I only wanted to highlight one planet in this. Gate 8, handled by transiting Uranus. Currently retrograding and going direct on 4th of February. Uranus will leave gate 8 on April 28th 2026 and not return their until it's next rotation. About 90 years. 

As I have said before, having gate 1 in my unconscious Earth. Has completed the electromagnetic channel 1-8, and has been giving me a lot of insights referencing, how many of us, including me most relevantly, are homogenised, through spiritual communities, to believe that "love" is the message we should all be sending. Other things connected with that.

A bit of history. Being someone that is interested in the 'path' so to speak. The spiritual path talked about in the Law of One, and other similar teachings. I have done the meditation, the journalling, and thought about all this stuff a great deal. Being basically disabled to varying degrees. Sometimes in small ways that subtly undermine me, sometimes in more serious ways. I have spent a lot of time, on my own, not working, and thinking through all this stuff. Importantly, trying to gain some method of improvement. 

The subject came up after I watched this video:

Youtube: Love Covered Life Podcast: December 30th 2025:

This is a very good summary of the kind of journey that is talked about in Llresearch and the Quo channeling. That I am suddenly reflecting on. 

I do feel a similar sense of 'guiding entities' most specifically, through dream interpretation. One pattern I have noticed is that I can strain for ages to get things right and I don't always feel like the guidance is particularly revealing. But if I get something right and then fall off, I can often get a powerful and explicit dream to remind me. 

Anyway, what I wanted to discuss is that all the journalling, to talk through how people have behaved in relation to the friend who killed herself as an example. All the emotions about this, and another issue that I will mention in a little. Do not seem to be solved by these mechanisms. The things that this woman describes. Getting on with other people in relation to labours of love. Do not seem relevant to me. 

I want to bring in another teaching as well. I have talked about it before. Stefan Molyneux's, "Love is our involuntary response to virtue if we are virtuous". 

I have thought this over a lot. I believe it is a correct teaching. I have listened to FDR Podcast 5971. "The Philosophy of Love". He clarifies that his teaching about love is a natural law that already exists. As I said I have been thinking it over. It seemed to work. It seemed to apply to my life. 

But then... All of a sudden. It didn't apply. My perception of this rule working within me just suddenly fell apart. 

To bring a few points together here then. A lot of this working with emotions for me, is not massively functional. 

For me, it is very difficult to grip within myself what 'love' is and what relevance it has. Like, don't get me wrong, I have affection for the dog. I don't lack love 'per sey'. But I don't find any value in imagining other people and seeing them positively. 

Much of the Quo readings are about that kind of thing, and I am questioning if they are useful for me. Letting go of the Law of One will not happen. But letting go on a deeper level of the Quo readings, as a secondary benefits further disconnecting from llresearch, might be positive. 

Much of my thoughts. Do not acknowledge people in a sense. There is no particular anger at others. There is no lack of forgiveness. There is no forgiveness either. Because other people are often not interesting to me, and not interested in me. 

But the way I do follow these things. Ideas on Jesus and such. The Law of One. Is that when I think through 'love' type of stuff. It just concerns actually doing things. Like, doing things for others in the real world. If I don't have that, I don't see the relevance of thinking it through any further. 

The only way to think through deeper emotional themes. Handling the deeper complexities of life. The alternative to journalling. Is to focus on music and write lyrics. It's the only thing that seems to add some sort of momentum or shift and clarity to my emotional life.

A lot of what I have figured out from the Law of One is that the main point of it all is acceptance. The path, the 'process' as it is called in session 34 is 'Understanding - Acceptance- Forgiveness and if possible restitution". I would say music, writing songs, is a big aid to this. To create a song from an emotional place is to understand your emotions better. To really understand them is to begin to accept them. Music is navigating the too's and fro's, the complexity of such emotions.  

The takeaway is that I perceive there is further deconditioning which is shown by the Uranus transit of gate 8.
