The circuits are extremely important and are a major factor in how we connect to others
Ever since Human Design has been taught, people have wanted to understand the meanings of the channels. The channels are by their very nature mysterious. They are mysterious because they are all polarities, created by the fusion of opposite forces. In this sense each channel is something of a paradox; a zen koan that cannot be resolved by the mind alone. This is knowledge that has to be absorbed at a cellular level as well as at a mental level. To fully understand Human Design takes seven years. To fully understand the channels and circuits takes seven years. Therefore go slowly and allow the experiment of living your own design to lead the way.
All the channels within a circuit create a larger theme together, and in that sense can never be separated.
The circuits are extremely important and are a major factor in how we connect to others. People with definition within the same circuits will have a natural affinity with each other. When you see which circuits dominate in your own design, you will also see which connections can bridge the 'gaps' in that circuit. These are the places in your design that will literally pull you out towards other people.
The Circuit Groups are very different in the way in which they function. Together they cover the entire spectrum of human interaction.
The Individual is a source of Mutation. This is the 'outsider' mentality. These people are here to empower others by being unique. The keynote of this group is EMPOWERMENT. When individuals connect to each other through this circuitry, they empower each other individually whilst resolutely remaining themselves in the process.
The Collective being is a source of 'reflection' and 'projection'. The Understanding Circuit projects its patterns and formulas into the future in order to lead, and the Sensing Circuit reflects on the past in order to remember. The keynote of this group is SHARING. When people connect to each other through this circuitry, they share their projections and reflections. This is an inherently social group.
The Tribal being is the foundation of our communities, our sexuality and our civilization. Tribal connections are rooted in the keynote of SUPPORT. Coming together through tribal circuitry demands individual sacrifice.
Integration, the path of individuation. When you examine the six Rave circuits, you will notice that there appear to be four channels that are " missing". These are the integration channels, These channels represent the most complex connective field in Human Design. All the other channels are created by a single connection between two centers and two gates, but in the integration process, we are dealing with four centers connected by four gates, giving rise to the possibility of six channels. Of these six channels, two (the 20/57, channel of the Brainwave and the 34/10, channel of exploration) belong to the Knowing and Centering circuits respectively. The remaining four channels are known as the integration channels, and do not belong to any circuitry. Since it is through the circuits that we connect to each other, these channels are resolutely individual and separate.
