Step 3 of 9 · Hospitality and the Stranger
Gebo
Why this step
Gebo is the gift, a true exchange with no reverse: on this site it is either balanced or it is not a gift at all. It represents generosity that creates real connection rather than obligation. Set against the guest section, it asks what a host and guest are actually exchanging.
