Gate 15 sits in the G Centre and carries the logic of the Collective circuit. Known as the Gate of Extremes, it deals with the tension between opposing forces and the wisdom of restraint.

This gate activates when someone encounters situations demanding calibration, knowing when to push and when to hold back, when to speak and when to remain quiet. The energy here isn't about self-deprecation; it's about reading context and responding with appropriate measure.
