Gate 5: Fixed Rhythms

This gate holds a fixed personal rhythm; the body performs when the pattern is kept.

It sits in the Sacral 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 — 15 — is activated too, either in your own chart or in someone else's while you are with them.

Letting other people's schedules destroy your rhythm.

A dependable daily rhythm that anchors everything else you do.

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.
