Gate 44: The Gate of Alertness
The Gate of Alertness is the gate of tricksters who know how to turn every situation to their advantage. Because it is a gate that falls within the realm of the Ego Center, those who have it will always see to it that their skills are suitably rewarded. No new patterns or trends can escape your eye. This gift is especially helpful in matters related to business, creativity, and personal life. You could be a casting agent with a knack for finding new talent, or the fashion designer of the future. If you are an economist, you will see market storms before they hit. The flip side of the coin is a fear of the past. You need constant reassurance that it won’t happen again. Just don’t look back quite so often. Otherwise, you run the risk of tripping on the present and finding yourself out of the picture.
