Quote of the day by Koen
"To see what gate Kiron is in may be intellectually interesting, but it is not an imprinting mode.
Question: I do have a question about how to interpret the Kiron. I see there is this Kiron Return, but there is no Kiron in the chart. Is there a reason for that?
Ra: Yes, there is, it’s a good question. Kiron is what I refer to as a marker. It’s a very specific thing. It is an object. It is about the size of Manhattan Island, so it’s not very big. It’s almost exactly in between the orbits of Saturn and Uranus. The discovery of Kiron in many ways represents what is the marker for the final transformation of what it is as a human being or what our potential can be as a human being.
Kiron is used very specifically in Human Design as part of understanding the nine-centered being, and particularly understanding the nine-centered being through its mutative process.
That is, everyone who is born with a Profile that contains the 6th line is in fact the mutative vanguard, if you will, of the Uranian process, the Uranian age. This transition in the life, what we see in the three stages of the 6th line being, that is, the Saturnian opening stage, and then at the Saturn Return one goes so called onto the roof and this interregnum stages lasts from the Saturn Return to the Kiron Return.
In other words, Kiron is this bridging point between the Saturnian process and the ultimate Uranian process. It’s why, for example, that we refer to the Kiron Return as the era that opens up the potential flowering of a human being.
This is what this process is about. In other words, no longer are we tied to what was the seven centered being Saturnian cycle of approximately 30 years in which basically you had to take on life’s responsibilities when you were very young, anywhere from 12 to 15 years of age, you were married, you had children, lived your life, life ended early.
This whole new process that we live in, that we’re exploring through the nine centered being, this Uranian life that is 84 years instead of 30 which has a midlife instead of 15, in its late 30’s or early 40’s. It is a very different process.
So Kiron is used specifically. I was given the knowledge that Kiron was never placed in the activating imprinting category, in other words, it had nothing to do with Kiron imprinting. So you don’t see Kiron in a calculation in a Human Design chart. As a matter of fact, it once was in an early version; I had it removed. It doesn’t belong there because it’s not there for interpretation.
To see what gate Kiron is in may be intellectually interesting, but it is not an imprinting mode. It isn’t affecting your specific differentiation.
But on a larger scale it is indeed a marker, and a very important one in the life.
And a Kiron Return is specially is important for those beings who carry a 6th line in their Profile. Though, I must admit that as a 5/1 myself, my Kiron Return was a major event in my life. And in fact, really did open up the door to the flowering. It’s when I created Jovian Archive with my family.
And I see that if you’re operating correctly we’re all aligned to what is a new way in which, in fact, the life unfolds and a whole new era where our deepest fertility happens to be.
It used to be that if you didn’t make it by the time you were 20 you were never going to make it. The point is with the Uranian life that you don’t even have the tools to make it, in the sense of yourself, the fulfilment of your own process until you get to your Kiron and until you begin the stage of flowering.
So, Kiron for me is deeply significant, but it is not an imprinting agent so that’s why it’s not in the calculations."
