Gate 6: Friction

This gate governs the emotional membrane that decides who gets close and when.

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 — 59 — is activated too, either in your own chart or in someone else's while you are with them.

Opening or closing to people at random, with no wave awareness.

Intimacy that opens at the right time, with the right person.

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.
