Tribal Circuit
“We are alike and support each other.”
Groups
If you carry strong tribal energy, you help bring people together into groups who are alike and support one another. For example, a family might be connected through the same bloodline or shared values. These communities are not open to everyone. Your loyalty and support are reserved for like-minded individuals. The motivation behind this is to survive as a tribe, which can also spark conflict between different groups.
How does our tribe survive?
The big questions you ask with tribal energy are: How do we survive? Do we have a roof over our heads or enough food? If these needs aren’t met, you may feel restless and want to change the situation.
Deals / Trade
You instinctively understand that resources are exchanged in ways that benefit the group. With this energy, you make deals or agreements that hold value for the tribe. These don’t have to be written. A promise or handshake means a lot. If someone breaks that promise, you may lose trust in them.
Traditions
If you have a lot of tribal energy, you take pride in your origins and uphold traditions. For instance, you may pass on grandma’s recipes or celebrate ritual holidays with special devotion.

What are Human Design Gates?
Imagine you are a beautiful old castle. In this castle, there are 64 different doors. These are the Gates in Human Design. Each door leads to a different room with unique qualities, talents and characteristics.
Some doors are wide open in you. These are the activated Gates. Through these open doors, energy flows constantly. They show where you are especially strong, what you naturally do well and how you inspire others.
Other doors are closed or just slightly ajar. This does not mean you do not have these traits. It simply means they are not expressed automatically. These rooms are entered only when certain people come into your life or special situations arise.
The magic lies in this: no person has the same doors open. While one person shines through the Gate of creativity, another glows through the Gate of leadership or intuition. That is why every person is so uniquely wonderful.
The Gates help you understand why you sometimes react so differently than others expect and why that is perfectly right and important.
