The Channel of the Beat (2-14)

What it means

The Channel of the Beat connects the direction of the G centre with the Sacral's power to fuel it. It carries the resources, skills and stamina that let a person, and the people around them, move in a new direction.

Because the Sacral is involved, the direction is found through response rather than planning. When the work in front of them feels right in the gut, the energy and often the money follow.

The two gates

• Gate 14

Its circuit

It belongs to the Individual circuit's Centering branch, which is about finding one's own centre and empowering others to find theirs.

Which centres does the Channel of the Beat connect?

It connects the G centre, through Gate 2, The Receptive, with the Sacral centre, through Gate 14, Power Skills. Having the channel defines both centres.

What if I only have Gate 2 or Gate 14?

Then it is a hanging gate, half of the channel. The Channel of the Beat completes whenever a transiting planet or another person activates the other gate, for as long as that lasts.
