Gate of Ideas
Ideas are Stimulation for Reflection
________________________________
A harmonic condition in the individual or society that permits assessment before renewed action. Ideas are captured over time. One who seeks stimulation.
Left Angle Cross of Education 2, Right Angle Cross of the Vessel of Love 4
Godhead - Prometheus
Line 6 - Adaptability
The inner balance to accept transition.
Exaltation: The innate awareness that all forms are transitory. The realization that ideas lead to change and are changeable.
Detriment: Adaptability in its most negative manifestation. The speculator who profits at the expense of others in times of peace or war. The realization of what idea is of value in any situation.
This Gate is part of the Channel of Curiosity, The Design of the Searcher, linking the Ajna Center (Gate 11) to the Throat Center (Gate 56). Gate 11 is part of the Collective Sensing (Abstract) Circuit with the keynote of sharing.
Ideas are concepts designed to express what has been sensed. In Gate 11, possibilities are conceptualized into ideas. These ideas are not prescriptions for action because ideas come and go. At this point in the abstract process, we are given a quiet moment for assessment to sort out what has been remembered over the ups and downs of the experiential process. We are prone to remembering what we really liked about what we saw, while leaving the rest out. This is how ideas become ideals, then beliefs and finally belief systems over time. Those who carry this gate seek the ideas of others to stimulate their own reflections, and enjoy stimulating others with their ideas, but not indiscriminately. Ideas reach the Throat Center as verbal expressions, not as manifestations of action, and they are designed simply to be reflected upon. Trying to solve our life's dilemmas with our own ideas will lead to frustration, further crises and confusion. We can take great delight, however, in savoring the stimulating details of past moments for their own sake. Without Gate 56 we are under pressure to tell our stories, and may do so impulsively without waiting for the right timing.

Gate of the Behavior of the Self
The Love of Self is Awakeness
________________________________
The underlying code of behavior which ensures successful interaction despite circumstances. The role of perfecting our form, its survival, and the conviction which guides it.
Juxtaposition Cross of Alertness
Godhead - Vishnu
Line 1 - Modesty
An innate sense to know and accept one's place.
Exaltation: A valued sense of purpose no matter what the position. The ability to know one's place and how to act despite circumstances.
Detriment: The affliction of oversensitivity and hurt feeling. Oversensitivity to external conditioning of behaviour.
This Gate is part of the Channel of Exploration, A Design of Following One's Convictions, linking the G Center (Gate 10) to the Sacral Center (Gate 34). Gate 10 is part of the Individual (Centering) Circuit with the keynote of empowerment. This Gate is part of the Channel of Perfected Form, A design of Survival, linking G Center (Gate 10) to the Splenic Center (Gate 57). Gate 10 is part of the Integration Channel with the keynote of self-empowerment. This Gate is part of the Channel of Awakening, A Design of Commitment to Higher Principles, linking the G Center (Gate 10) to the Throat Center (Gate 20). Gate 10 is part of the Integration Channel with the keynote of self-empowerment.
Gate 10 is the most complex gate in the G Center, and one of the four Gates of the Incarnation Cross of the Vessel of Love. This is the gate of the love of oneself. The six potential behaviors or roles of the self (listed below) are guided by the intuition of Gate 57, empowered by the Sacral response of Gate 34, and manifested or expressed through Gate 20. Within the framework of these roles, humanity is now exploring what it means to live as a 9-centered, self-aware form with its potential to awaken, and to experience genuine self love. With our Strategy and Authority in place, Gate 10 empowers our potential to surrender to living authentically as ourselves. As we come to know, accept and love what makes us unique, we empower others to love themselves as well. True awakening through surrender is not a commitment to becoming something; it is a commitment to being ourselves. Gate 10's strong emphasis on loving self-acceptance will deeply impact how humanity moves through the 21st century. Those who carry this gate are the ones who recognize that awakening is not possible without self-acceptance. As we embrace the honor and pleasure of exploring life in a self-aware form, we empower our potential to live as our true selves, awake in the now moment.
