The potential of recognition through feelings leads to the possibility of change.
No gates are under greater pressure then 22 Grace and 36 The Darkening of the Light.
These are the only two conceptualizing gates which have direct access to the throat and can manifest directly as Action.
Since it is emotional energy,
the Pain&Hope wave that conditions this definition rather than the possible emotional awareness that lies within the wave,
the outcome is often destabilizing for the individual and for others.
Only in this way is the 36th gate the gate of crisis.
Change and changes in feeling are natural to the Abstract process.
This is an experiental circuit.
The ultimate role is to be a witness, to remember and reflect.
The shift of feelings determines the ending of a cycle,
nothing more,
but this can only be recognized through awareness.
The energy overwhelms this possibility,
and change becomes either something that is dreaded or embraced and fuels a life of expectations and inevitable crises.
THE RULE OF CYCLES IN WHICH DECLINE IS A NATURAL BUT NOT ENDURING STAGE.
Gate 36.1: Resistance.
The ability to confront any challenge without expectations.
Exaltation:
The energy and determination to persevere in the face of opposition.
The emotional power to handle crisis.
Detriment:
An over-principled resistance that rather than being selective in resistance and thus less at risk,
will maintain normal patterns and incur opposition.
A resistance to change that will always bring crisis.
Gate 36.2: Support.
Assistance to others in times of decline.
Exaltation:
The application of imagination to schemes which benefit others.
Feelings that can benefit others in times of crisis.
Detriment:
The more practical and individual assistance but only when unavoidable and not as a general principle.
Selective assistance in times of crisis.
Gate 36.3: Transition.
The point at which decline has exhausted its power.
Exaltation:
The ability to establish a new order out of the ashes of the old.
The emotional depth to endure crisis and embrace change.
Detriment:
The tendency in renewal to try to assimilate the remains of the old order into,
The new with the risk that it may rise against the new order once it has regained its strengths.
The embrace of the change, but with feelings that will not let go of the past.
Gate 36.4: Espionage.
Modesty as a shield against exposure of inadequacy.
Exaltation:
The ability to prepare for and anticipate decline through the accumulation of secret or privileged information.
The realization that knowledge both covert and esoteric is necessary,
if one is to be prepared for crisis and change.
Detriment:
The tendency in recognizing the strengths of the opposition to accept the inevitability of decline and rather than resist,
to offer one's services to guarantee survival.
The double agent.
Crisis knowledge that is available to others for a price.
Gate 36.5: The underground.
The ability to sense when otherwise balanced behavior must be adjusted to meet the requirements of changing environment.
Exaltation:
Perfected survival regardless of conditions.
Immunity to crisis as both generator and survivor.
Detriment:
A nervousness that can lead to self-betrayal.
Self-betraying nervousness in times of crisis.
Gate 36.6: Justice.
The inevitable survival of right.
Exaltation:
The knowledge and attendant faith that the powers of darkness eventually destroy themselves.
'Those whom the Gods wish to destroy, they first make mad.'
The correctness of crisis when it arises out of pure feelings.
Detriment:
A profound sorrow and cynicism,
that is not diminished by the understanding,
that darkness is self-annihilating.
The sorrow or cynicism that comes with seeing that despite the correctness of the feelings,
there is always crisis.
