Channel 12-22

The Channel of Openness
Write your awesome label here.

When you're aligned with the energy of the Channel of Openness, which connects the Throat Center (Gate 12) to the Emotional Solar Plexus (Gate 22), you're here to express emotional depth and individuality in a way that deeply impacts others.

Gate 12 gives you a refined, poetic voice and a natural sensitivity to the emotional tone of your environment. 
Gate 22 gives you the energy to be emotionally magnetic and carry a deep emotional depth.

The Gifts of Channel 12-22

This channel is all about emotional expression and timing—you are here to move people through the power of your voice, presence, and emotional authenticity. Whether you speak, sing, or create through another medium, your gift lies in touching others emotionally when the moment is right.

Gate 12 (The Gate of Caution): You instinctively know when it’s the right time to speak, and when it’s better to wait. Your words carry weight—when you speak from emotional clarity, you can deeply move, inspire, and influence others.

Gate 22 (The Gate of Grace): Your presence can soothe, enchant, or stir emotion in others. You are here to embrace your emotional wave with grace and express it with beauty, vulnerability, and authenticity. This gate gives you a powerful aura of emotional openness and charm.

Together, these gates form the Channel of Openness, giving you the capacity to express deep emotional truth in a way that’s artful, vulnerable, and transformational. Your voice becomes a tool for healing, beauty, and connection—when used at the right time and from the right emotional place.

The gifts look like

Emotional Depth: You connect with people on a deep emotional level, whether through conversation, creativity, or leadership. Your vulnerability allows others to feel safe opening up emotionally.

Creative Expression: You have a unique ability to express yourself creatively, whether through music, speaking, or other artistic endeavors. Your emotions give depth and richness to your work.

Charismatic Influence: When you're aligned, you are incredibly charismatic, drawing people in with your emotional authenticity and grace. You lead with your emotions and charm, inspiring others to embrace their own emotional truths.

The Shadows of Channel 12-22

When you're in the shadow of this channel, you may struggle with the intensity of your emotions or feel insecure about expressing your true feelings. The shadows of Gate 12 and Gate 22 come into play here:

​Gate 12’s Shadow: You may feel emotionally guarded, holding back from sharing your feelings or not trusting that others will understand or appreciate your depth. This can lead to isolation or feeling misunderstood. 

Gate 22’s Shadow: You might experience emotional moodiness, feeling either overly charming and manipulative to get your way or withdrawing completely due to emotional overwhelm. You could struggle to find the right moment to express your emotions, leading to either over-expressing or shutting down.

The shadows look like

Fear Vulnerability: You might be afraid to show your true emotions, worried about rejection or not being understood, and therefore choose to isolate yourself emotionally.

Emotional Extremes: You could swing between emotional highs and lows, sometimes withdrawing or being overly dramatic in your expression, which could push people away.

Inauthentic Expression: You might try to charm others or manipulate situations by using your emotions strategically, rather than sharing them authentically. This can create distance in relationships.

Summary of the Channel of Openness

In essence, the Channel of Openness’s gift is for you to share your emotional depth and creative expression in a way that deeply moves others. In the shadow, you may either shut down emotionally or manipulate your emotional expression to gain approval or control, leaving you disconnected from your true self.​

When you have the Channel of Openness, reflecting on how you express emotions and engage with others can help ensure you’re using your gifts to connect meaningfully and inspire others. This channel connects the Throat to the Solar Plexus, providing a gift for emotional expression, especially through words, music, or other forms of art. Here are reflective questions to help you stay aligned with these gifts: 

Am I expressing my emotions in a way that feels true to me and honors my inner experiences? This question helps you reflect on whether your self-expression is genuine, allowing you to communicate in ways that feel meaningful and authentic. 

Am I creating space for my emotions, allowing myself to feel without judgment or suppression? Reflecting on this supports emotional honesty, helping you embrace your full range of feelings as part of your unique expression. 

Do I listen and respond to others’ emotions with compassion and openness? This question reminds you to cultivate empathy, allowing others to feel seen and heard, which deepens your connections. 

How am I balancing my need for alone time with my desire for connection? Checking in with this question can help you stay in tune with your emotional rhythms, allowing you to recharge alone when needed and be fully present when connecting with others. 

Am I using my voice or creative expression to uplift and inspire others? Reflecting on this encourages you to share your unique insights and emotions in ways that empower others, helping them feel more connected and inspired. 

These questions help you stay true to the Channel of Openness’s gifts, using your emotional authenticity and creative expression to foster deeper connections and bring inspiration to those around you.
