Gate 50“The Gate of Values”

Gate 50 is about values, responsibility, and stewardship-what rules and standards protect the future of the group. It can preserve traditions that work, and it can challenge traditions that have become harmful.

In alignment, it is a wise custodian: holding people to standards that support life, health, and fairness. In distortion, it can swing between control and rebellion, or feel burdened by duty. The work is to update values deliberately and apply them consistently, without moralizing or guilt trips.
