The sixty four gates

Human Design Gate 13: The Listener

Gate 13 is the one people confess to. It gathers stories and secrets and holds the memory of a group.

The dashed lines are the channels this gate can complete. Each one also needs the gate at its far end.

How gate 13 shows up in a life

Strangers tell you things they have not told their friends, often within twenty minutes. You did not ask and you cannot switch it off. The weight shows up later as a heaviness you mistake for your own mood. Find one place to put it down, a journal, a walk, a person of your own, and stop carrying everything.

Read here as a language of symbols. Medical, legal and financial questions belong with a professional.

Your own chart

Is this gate one of your twenty six activations?

A gate only belongs to you if one of the thirteen planets on either side of your chart landed in it. The calculator lists all twenty six, with the line each one fell in.
