The Channel of Perfected Form (10-57)

What it means

The Channel of Perfected Form joins the G centre's love of self with the Spleen's intuitive clarity. It creates a deep instinct for what is healthy and safe for the self, and often an eye for form and beauty.

Listening to that intuition in the moment is how it protects the body. Overriding it to please others is where it gets into trouble.

Its circuit

It belongs to the Integration channels, the self-empowering core of the Individual circuitry. Its energy is about survival and self-love, and it is complete in itself.
