Gate 56: Stimulation

This gate stimulates belief through story and possibility.

It sits in the Throat 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 — 11 — is activated too, either in your own chart or in someone else's while you are with them.

Telling stories with no lived experience behind them.

Stories that move people because they were actually lived.

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.
