The Sun is a symbol of authority, leadership, prosperity, strength, wellness, nurturing from a distance, the conscious mind and the public persona.

Said to be influenced by the constellation Leo, the Gate of the Sun channels leonine energies into our world. The Lion has been associated with the Sun since the earliest antiquity and it expresses both our positive and negative experiences with the Solar Orb. It is up to us to master, harness and channel these energies toward life-affirming and socially constructive ends.

As the Sun Gate leads beyond the Arch of Time and likewise affects and influences all other Gates, it seemed like the wisest place to begin.
