The centering of a being depends on the quality of their innocence.
The innocence is tested in the 'fire' of competitive energy.
Despite the outward appearances the true competition is whether the Self can maintain its innocence despite circumstances.
This is the gate of the Spiritual Warrior, the Shaman / Priestess.
It is one of the four gates of the Cross of the Vessel,
a gate of Love.
Innocence is the gate of the Blood.
It is the potential to love existence without discrimination.
A flower can be loved as profoundly as a human.
This quality of love is often projected as cool or cold.
It is neither.
The mystical potential of this love is transcendent and universal.
The Spirit is always being tested.
This is the gate of scars,
of the potential of being wounded.
When the Warrior / Fool leaps into the void,
it is Innocence that must land on its feet.
The Spirit can be broken but triumph and survival enrich the spirit and result in the wonder of being.
