What are gates and channels?
64 gates correspond to the 64 hexagrams of I Ching. Each gate is a potential for a specific quality. When gates from two adjacent centers are both active, they form a channel — a stable energy flow that defines both centers. There are 36 channels total. Channels are your 'talents' and consistent modes of self-expression. Activated gates without a partner create 'hanging' gates — potential seeking completion from others.
