The Gates of Mundance Love

In the Love Book, by Ra Uru Hu, he defines “The Seven Gates of Mundane Love” as Gates 10, 44, 40, 58, 41, 28, & 55.

Are these “Love” gates or “Direction” gates. Here are some key differences between Mary Ann Winiger's (MA) version and mine (JB). Ra has contradicting versions (by implication) between his Love Book and his Global Cycles presentations.

Gate 10, Self Love – no difference, both “Love”
Lower Trigram (☱ Lake) matches Gate 46 “Love”
Upper Trigram (☰ Heaven) matches Gate 1 Lower Trigram “Direction”

Gate 44, Successful Love
MA: associated with Lock 1 “Direction”
JB: associated with Lock 46 “Love”.
Lower Trigram (☴ Wood) matches Gate 46 “Love”
Upper Trigram (☰ Heaven) matches Gate 1 Lower Trigram “Direction”

Gate 40, Earning Love
MA: associated with Lock 46 “Love”
JB: associated with Lock 7 'Direction”
Lower Trigram (☵ Marsh) matches Gate 7 “Direction”
Upper Trigram (☳ Thunder) matches Gate 25 Lower Trigram “Love”

Gate 58, Perfecting Love
MA: associated with Lock 13 “Direction”
JB: associated with Lock 10 “Love”
Lower Trigram (☱ Lake) matches Gate 10 “Love”
Upper Trigram (☱ Lake) matches Gate 10 Lower Trigram “Love”

Gate 41, Dreams of Love

JB: associated with Lock 10 “Love”

Upper Trigram (☶ Mountain) matches Gate 15 Lower Trigram “Love”

Gate 28, Love & Purpose
MA: associated with Lock 1 “Direction”
JB: associated with Lock 46 “Love”
Lower Trigram (☴ Wood) matches Gate 46 “Love”
Upper Trigram (☱ Lake) matches Gate 10 Lower Trigram “Love”

Gate 55, Eternally Indecisive Love
MA: associated with Lock 25 “Love”
JB: associated with Lock 13 'Direction”
Lower Trigram (☲ Fire) matches Gate 13 “Direction”
Upper Trigram (☳ Thunder) matches Gate 25 Lower Trigram “Love”

Summary:

Gates 28, 41, & 58 have clear “Love” themes in both the Upper & Lower Trigrams.

Gates 10 & 44 have “Love” themed Lower Trigrams & “Direction” themed Upper Trigrams.

Gates 40 & 55 have “Direction” themed Lower Trigrams & “Love” themed Upper Trigrams.

What do you think has more influence on the nature of a Gate, the Upper Trigram or Lower Trigram?
