Mutative, unique and non-conformist energy : transforms consciousness through example.
The Shadow: "Discord", is the conditioned pattern where this energy contracts and resists. Recognizing it without judgment is the first step of transformation.
The Gift: "Discernment", emerges when the Shadow is embraced. The same energy, freed, becomes a natural talent in service of self and others.
The Siddhi: "Empathy", is the highest frequency, the transcendent essence of this gate once the Gift is fully lived.
Affirmation
"I listen with discernment and keep the stories entrusted to me with respect."
