Gate 1 sits in the G Centre and carries the impulse toward self-expression and initiation. It's the beginning point, the spark that wants to emerge and make itself known. When this gate is active in someone's chart, there's a natural drive to express something individual and distinctive, whether through work, creativity, or simply how they move through the world.
