Gate 37: Friendship

This gate holds the tribe together through touch, warmth and clear agreements.

It sits in the Solar Plexus centre, so its expression depends on whether that centre is defined in your chart. A gate on its own is a half-channel: it only becomes consistent definition when a partner gate — 40 — is activated too, either in your own chart or in someone else's while you are with them.

Loyalty without a clear bargain, which ends in resentment.

Warm belonging built on agreements everyone actually accepted.

As with every gate, correct expression is downstream of your type and authority. The gate describes the flavour of the energy; your strategy decides when it gets used.
