The Head is a Pressure Center not an awareness.
This is the beginning of the Abstract mental process.
The keynote of this channel is mental activity.
The term Confusion is not to be taken as a negative.
It simply means that the pressure is a busy mind with a great deal of data (most of which is superfluous)
that requires filtering before the pressure can be relieved.
While the Logic process tests the pattern in the present to project into the future,
the Abstract process is about experiencing the present in order to reflect upon it, when it is past.
The pressure of this gate is a flood of images rooted in past experience.
When activated from the Design (pre-natal data),
this is also a powerful dreaming gate.
Since this is the mental pressure for the Abstract Circuit,
the starting point is by its very nature a mixed blessing.
TRANSITION, LIKE BIRTH, REQUIRES A DETERMINED STRENGTH FOR THEPASSAGE THROUGH.
Gate 64.1: Conditions.
Exaltation:
In penetrating to the center,
the understanding that instills the necessary harmony to survive disorder.
Amongst the confusion, the difficulty in finding the point.
Detriment:
The powerful temptation when having transition in sight, to hasty action.
An urge to act when you think you have made sense of the confusion.
Gate 64.2: Qualification.
Exaltation:
An inner development which recognizes what qualities are essential for transcendence and the awareness that without them,
action will fail. Inner development that can end the confusion over what makes sense.
Detriment:
Constantly in action,
it wastes the very qualities and resources that it will need.
Getting lost in the confusion and burdening the psyche.
Gate 64.3: Overextension.
Exaltation:
The wisdom to recognize when one has not the necessary resources to complete transition.
Such timely awareness may give it a chance to seek assistance.
The wisdom to accept confusion as a temporary state,
that will be resolved in time or through others.
Detriment:
The risk of a superficially confident personality that when transition collapses,
there is no one to turn to.
Overconfidence that the Fates will be kind on demand.
Gate 64.4: Conviction.
Exaltation:
Symbolized by its phases, the Moon is assured of transition convinced by its very
process that it will triumph. The assuredness that confusion is a process that results
in realization.
Detriment:
Where force and energy alone cannot overcome doubt. Where the confusion is so
energized, assuredness brings no relief.
Gate 64.5: Promise.
Exaltation:
The values promised in any new order are demonstrated through harmonic interactions
with others. This strengthens the justification for the struggle. Confusion over
which values and relationships can bring harmony.
Detriment:
A tendency in trying to justify the struggle by focusing exclusively on the failure of
the old order that cannot demonstrate the quality of the new. Focusing on the past
confusions about values and relationships.
Gate 64.6: Victory.
Exaltation:
The mental assuredness, that knew that victory was inevitable, thus making triumph
sweet but not reason for excess. The mental gift of enjoying the confusion and its
diversity of data.
Detriment:
Like the story of the Trojan Horse,
it can be dangerous to get carried away in celebration,
least one looses vigilance and perspective.
With all the diversity of data,
it is easy to lose perspective.
