This week on The Traveling Hypnotist Podcast, top clinical hypnotist and coach Nicole Hernandez dives into the catalytic energy of Gate 39 in Human Design—the Gate of Provocation—and how it can activate your next-level evolution.

If you’ve been feeling emotionally poked, irritated, or like life keeps pushing your buttons—this isn’t chaos. It’s a call. Gate 39 shows up to stir your soul awake, challenge the status quo, and provoke you into embodying your untapped potential.

In this episode, Nicole unpacks how to work with this bold energy instead of resisting it—so you can channel discomfort into radical growth, power, and alignment.

Inside, you’ll discover:

  • What it really means to be provoked—and how to recognize the invitation
  • The high- and low-frequency expressions of Gate 39 and how they play out in your relationships, goals, and emotions
  • Why some challenges are actually spiritual initiations disguised as annoyances

Whether Gate 39 is defined in your chart or just lighting up your week, this episode will help you decode the tension—and turn it into transformation.

This is the energy of spiritual disruption. It doesn't
exist to maintain peace. Itexists to awaken potential. Gate
39 stirs discomfort because itwants to reveal the truth, truth
you've buried, truth that othersavoid, truth that makes

(00:21):
transformation inevitable.
Welcome to the travelinghypnotist podcast, the ultimate
destination to elevate your lifethrough the power of travel,
modern hypnosis, neuroscienceand time tested wellness
practices. I'm Nicole Hernandez,the traveling hypnotist. All
right, it's time to journeywithin and go beyond.

(00:52):
This is the human designfrequency forecast for gate 39
July 1 through the sixth, 2025,this is all about your energetic
guidance via human design. Andat the end, you'll see some
creative visibility prompts tohelp you show up and flow
according to gate 39 if wehaven't met before. My name is
Nicole Hernandez. I am a topclinical hypnotist in New York

(01:15):
City at the Four Seasons, andI'm also a success coach a
frequency theme the gate ofprovocation. The sun is making
its transit through gate 39 thegate of provocation in human
design and obstruction in the IChing. It brings pressure from
the root Center, which isdesigned to poke and trigger and

(01:37):
agitate, but with purpose. Thisis the energy of spiritual
disruption. It doesn't exist tomaintain peace. It exists to
awaken potential. Gate 39 stirsdiscomfort because it wants to
reveal the truth, truth you'veburied, truth that others avoid,

(02:00):
truth that makes transformationinevitable. This energy actually
reminds me a lot of my collegeboyfriend. He was brilliant,
handsome and really annoying attimes. He was the kind of guy
who could take apart a computerjust for fun, and also take
apart your political argumentsjust as easily. He loved to

(02:22):
debate, not in a pompous I knowbetter than you wake but in a
genuinely curious, let's godeeper kind of way. He pushed my
buttons constantly, especiallywhen I was exhausted from
pulling all nighters and thelast thing I wanted to do was
have a philosophical, deep diveover coffee, but looking back, I

(02:46):
see how he really helped mesharpen my thinking. He
challenged my assumptions, andmost importantly, he helped me
laugh when I was takingeverything, including myself,
way too seriously. And that'sreally the essence of gate 39
it's not here to tiptoe aroundyour feelings, but when you meet

(03:09):
it with self awareness andheart, it doesn't come to tear
you down. It becomes a mirror,not a weapon. It truly reflects
what matters, and it helps yousee what's ready to change, and
reminds you growth doesn'talways feel gentle, that it
always frees you. What thistransit brings to the party,

(03:33):
whether you RSVP or not. This isthe second week in a row of the
roots under pressure, and it isloud, it is pushing. Do you feel
it? You might feel the urge tofinally get your shit together.
You might be thinking, oh, gosh,I guess I finally need to book
that mammogram and thecolonoscopy and stop putting

(03:54):
stuff off right. You might evenbe looking at your calendar
noticing that half of 2025, isover. How did that happen? And
asking yourself, Am I stillaligned with what I said I
wanted? Where am I going? Andwhy do I keep getting in my way?
And if that last one is you, youmight want to think about high

(04:16):
frequency success coaching. Youmight also be noticing emotional
tension, sudden roadblocks orinner conflict is rising. But
here's the thing I want you toremember, it's not here to break
you, but to reveal what'soverdue for a shift. I've seen
this pressurized energy a lot inclient sessions over the last

(04:38):
two weeks, as more by highachievers are realizing that
they need to address thesubconscious beliefs that are
holding them back. And honestly,sometimes what we need to
address isn't so pretty. Forexample, maybe you've chosen to
repeat dating and relationshippatterns over and over and over

(04:59):
for the last. 20 years justthinking, Oh, at some point it's
going to change. And yet, youfind yourself in the same
predicament, in the sameoutcome, and we have to confront
the shadows if we really want tobe able to move forward. So gate
39 it's not going to let youmake shallow surface changes.

(05:20):
No, it's a friction that forcesyou to stop spiritually
bypassing and meet youremotional edges head on. And
look, I know it's challenging.
I'm personally working throughsome of this myself, the growth
edges, looking at where I havenot been able to move forward.
And when we start working onthose things, oh my goodness, it
can change so quickly. And infact, I just was talking to a

(05:44):
client this week who's alreadyseeing major changes in her
relationships, even after hersecond session, she said, I feel
good with him. There's no drama,there's no chaos. It just feels
mature. Now, if gate 39 isdefined in your chart, you are a
catalyst. I wish you to hearthat again. You are a catalyst.

(06:07):
You carry this energy ofspiritual provocation. You have
the gift of waking people up,pushing them out of emotional
numbness and into a morecreative, powerful version of
themselves. Your superpower isyou can see where people are
stuck and spark a shift withjust a few words. Now some

(06:30):
guidance here, you do work bestwhen invited to challenge
others. Otherwise, you mightburn some bridges instead of
igniting their creative spark.
Then your growth edge here isthat you're not responsible for
others emotions, but you areresponsible for your intention.
So if you are poking, do it fortheir highest good, not to boost

(06:53):
your ego. And if you areshrinking, also be aware of that
you're not really stepping intothis energy in the shadow, gate
39 can become very egoic. Itpicks fights. It's forcing
opinions, or it's using itsbluntness to control it can even
spur anger and violence. Seemslike there's a lot of gate 39

(07:16):
energy going around. What do youthink? But in its high
expression. You're a truthteller, you're a spiritual
instigator, you're a guide whochallenges people into becoming
more of who they really are.
Isn't that beautiful? Now thefrequency spectrum of gate 39
now let's look at how gate 39shows up in its full range. And

(07:37):
remember, there's no judging.
Here. We have the choice to turnup or turn down our frequency.
It is not stagnant, lowfrequency. Number one, you take
responsibility for others'emotions, becoming a people
pleaser because you aren'tsaying what needs to be said,

(07:57):
and you cower fromconfrontation. So just notice,
if that is the space that youlive in. Number two, you take
things too personally. You havea hard time laughing at yourself
or having anyone point out yourquirks or even your flaws. Now
this was me for most of myteenage years, in my early 20s,

(08:18):
so insecure. Number three, youcould be blunt telling others
how they are headed down thewrong path in a way that just
pushes them away. Four, you'retrapped in a frequency of lack
and scarcity, and you're alwaysfinding fault, faults in
everything, faults in whatpeople say, faults in what
people do, faults in just theday, is just not working out for

(08:40):
you. And so it's feeling it likeyou're always in conflict with
the world. Number five,provoking people to get a rise
out of them, rather than fortheir highest good. So you look
to create conflict. You like toruffle people's feathers. You
want to prove a point, and youwant to teach somebody a lesson.
All low frequency. Six, you'reusing your words or actions as a

(09:02):
violence towards others that'semotionally or physically
abusive, and it's the worst partof this. Gate number seven, you
say second your opinion, you'reunwilling to consider new
perspectives. Now, even thoughgate 39 does have the ability to
confront it. It wants to learnmore, right? It wants to be open

(09:25):
to new perspectives. It justwants to have a good argument, a
good debate. It wants to reallyknow that you know what you're
talking about. So just be awareif you are someone who maybe has
very set beliefs, but thenyou're completely shutting
anything else out. And numbereight, you're fatigued and
allowing yourself to feeltrapped, rather than stepping

(09:47):
into this to the creativesolution that this energy holds
for you. So again, going back tothat lack mentality, but you're
just not even open to thecreative solutions that are
here, that are available. Andyou. Just feel withered down and
broken down the high frequency.
Number one, you takeresponsibility for your

(10:08):
emotions. Number two, you arenot afraid to share the hard
truth with people in order toinspire them to a higher level
of spirit. You can lovingly showothers where they need to shift.
Number three, you just knowyou're a catalyst for change,

(10:28):
and you were solid in thatknowing and that almost makes
you feel invincible at times.
And number four, you strive toinitiate meaningful
conversations and inspire othersto view things from all
different angles and alldifferent perspective. You can
really navigate an entire group,if you like, and help them see
different ways of being, andthat can be really

(10:51):
transformational for others.
Now, the energetic Tip of theWeek, track your trigger. So
this is an actual task that Igive some of my private clients
this week. When something orsomeone pushes your buttons,
don't brush it off. I want youto track it. Ask yourself, what

(11:12):
is this reaction trying to teachme? Is it pointing to an old
wound? Is it a boundary thatneeds to be strengthened? Is it
a fear that's finally ready tobe released? And I want to talk
to this last one, because thereare so many people that try to
avoid any triggers, and I reallylike to think if there is a

(11:36):
trigger that is there, it meansthat it's ready to be
transformed. It's ready tochange that you have the ability
to change it, and just knowingthat and believing that gives
you more power to actuallychange that old trigger. Because
triggers aren't problems,they're an invitation to return

(11:56):
to your power. All right, let'sget visible gate. 39 content
props this week challenges us toconsider how we handle conflict
and confrontation, and here aresome prompts to try in your own
content. Number one, I saidsomething recently that
triggered someone, but it wastrue. Here's how I handled their

(12:21):
reaction. So this one's a reallygreat opening for teaching how
to hold emotional space whilestaying rooted in integrity and
in your emotional maturity.
Number two, here's one truth Iavoided sharing because I knew
it would shake things up, andwhy I finally said it anyway.
Now this invites a bold storyand positions you as a leader

(12:42):
who that who values growth overcomfort. And number three, I've
learned to tell the differencebetween provoking just to be
heard and provoking to heal, andthis is what that looks like for
me now. So share your evolutionwith this energy and what
shifted in your tone, yourdelivery, or maybe your

(13:03):
audience, that allowed you to beable to move into the space
where you actually areconnecting and not aggravating.
Number four, there was a momentwhen someone pushed my buttons,
and I've could have overreacted,but instead talk about how you
took the high road. This isreally about showing how you

(13:25):
grown in your response toconflict or emotional discomfort
and what came out of it, whatwas the result? People love
stories like this and the lastone here. I used to think my
intensity was something to fix,but now I see it as one of the
most powerful tools in my work.
So this is perfect. If gate 39is your energy, this is really

(13:47):
about owning who you are. Soit's a perfect reframe for
emotional charge, for passion,or seeing your death as a gift
instead of a liability. Don'tfight the energy. Stay in flow.
Just a final reminder, gate 39isn't here to play nice. It's
here to liberate just in timefor the Fourth of July. Let it
stretch you. Let it provoke youinto becoming who you were

(14:11):
always meant to be. Because whenused with intention, this energy
doesn't just disrupt it rewiresyour entire life. And again, I'm
