The sixty four gates

Human Design Gate 31: Influence

Gate 31 leads by speaking for a group rather than above it. Its authority is granted by the people who agree to follow, and it disappears without them.

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

How gate 31 shows up in a life

You hear yourself say we when you mean it, and people line up behind that. Take the role without a mandate and you become the woman nobody elected who is running the group chat. Wait to be chosen, even informally, even by three people. Influence that was offered to you costs nothing to keep.

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.
