Lines
6 expression styles that shape how any gate delivers its energy.
Lines are the six different ways any gate can express itself. While a gate represents WHAT theme is present, the line describes HOW that theme plays out. Line 1 investigates and builds foundations. Line 2 has natural talent that others recognize. Line 3 learns through trial and experimentation. Line 4 influences through relationships. Line 5 is projected upon to solve problems. Line 6 moves through life phases toward wisdom. Your Profile (like 3/5 or 6/2) comes from the lines of your Sun gates, but every gate in your chart has a line that colors how you experience that energy.
Personal Expression (Lines 1-3)
Inward-focused styles that build mastery through investigation, natural gifts, and experimentation.
Builds security through deep understanding. Line 1 needs to research and establish a solid foundation before expressing the gate's theme. This introspective style creates depth and authority through knowledge.
Expresses talent without effort. Line 2 has innate gifts that emerge when recognized by others. This receptive style waits to be called out rather than pushing forward, and shines when invited.
Learns through trial and discovery. Line 3 gains wisdom by testing, adapting, and sometimes failing. This resilient style transforms lived experience into practical knowledge others can use.
Transpersonal Expression (Lines 4-6)
Outward-focused styles that share energy through relationships, practical solutions, and wisdom.
Expresses through relationships and connection. Line 4 carries the gate's theme into the world through friendships and networks. This social style builds bridges and creates opportunity through who you know.
Seen as having solutions for others. Line 5 universalizes the gate's theme, making it useful to many. This projected style attracts expectations and delivers real impact when expectations are managed.
Offers perspective earned through living. Line 6 moves through life phases—engagement, withdrawal, and eventually wisdom. This mature style leads by example and offers guidance from experience.
