The Shadows of Channel 35-36
When you’re in the shadow of this channel, you may struggle with restlessness, emotional impulsivity, or avoidance of deeper emotions. The shadows of Gate 35 and Gate 36 can manifest as boredom, a need for constant stimulation, or getting stuck in emotional turbulence without finding meaning in it.

When you have the Channel of Transitoriness (also called The Channel of Exploration), reflecting on how you engage with new experiences and handle emotions can keep you aligned with the gifts of this channel. This energy is about seeking growth and meaning through experiences, and learning to accept both highs and lows. Here are a few reflective questions to ensure you’re harnessing the full potential of this energy:
​
-
Am I open to new experiences without getting attached to specific outcomes, or do I find myself fearing the unknown? Embracing exploration without expectation allows you to stay connected to the spirit of growth and discovery.
-
How do I handle emotional turbulence when I encounter new challenges or changes? Staying aware of your emotions and finding ways to process them helps you move through life’s ups and downs with resilience.
-
Do I seek out new experiences for genuine growth, or do I sometimes feel restless and pursue change just to escape boredom? Engaging with new situations for authentic growth allows your curiosity to lead you toward meaningful adventures.
-
Am I open to sharing what I’ve learned from my experiences, or do I tend to keep my insights to myself? Sharing your wisdom can inspire others and help you better integrate your own life lessons.
-
Do I practice self-compassion when things don’t go as planned, or do I get frustrated when my expectations aren’t met? Being gentle with yourself in moments of disappointment helps you learn from each experience without self-criticism.
Reflecting on these questions can guide you in using the gifts of Channel 35-36, supporting your journey of meaningful exploration and emotional resilience.
