Channel 20-57: The Channel of the Brainwave (Penetrating Awareness)
This channel stands for penetrating, intuitive perception in the now. Your perception keeps running in the background: it checks your surroundings for safety, and your hearing listens for what rings true. Intuitive perception pushes straight into speech as an impulse and can interrupt others in the process. Behind this alertness there may be a concern for your own safety; the task is to stay in the now and not let old fears pass judgment on the present. Whether and when you share what you perceive is something you check with your Strategy and Authority; it is respectful to ask first whether it is welcome.
The two gates
Gate 20: The Gate of the Now
Being fully in the present moment, in the now: that is what Gate 20 stands for.
Gate 57: The Gate of Intuitive Insight
Gate 57 stands for intuition in the moment: a sense that sees through a situation as it unfolds, as penetrating as a cool wind that cuts right to the bone.
The two centers
When this channel is defined, both centers are defined.
Throat Center
The way you express yourself is consistent, and how it sounds depends on what your Throat is connected to.
Spleen Center
Your Spleen speaks up spontaneously and only for the moment, and your Authority decides which signal takes the lead for you.
