Reading Your Chart

Your BodyGraph will most likely appear unfamiliar and complicated when you first look at it. Don’t worry, we’ll go over it in your reading and Integration session. However, to get the most out of your session, here is a brief overview of what you’ll be looking at.

The body-shaped diagram shows the energy centers (like chakras) and the channels that connect them. Much like an electrical circuit board, the BodyGraph shows how energy flows in the body. It is framed by two columns of numbers. These numbers correspond to the numbers, called gates in the BodyGraph, that are activated in your chart. The black numbers and lines represent your conscious personality and the red ones your design, or unconscious aspects your body exhibits. Remember, your chart displays how your brain processes information, and information is a form of energy, following pathways much like electricity. This chart shows your energy type (how you use your vitality and relate to other people) and your authority (how you make decisions). Following your correct strategy, based on your energy type honors and optimizes the fundamentals of how you function. Your chart doesn’t offer predictions about your future, but is a powerful tool for self-awareness and self-acceptance, which is the ultimate objective of our work together.

The following glossary contains a list of terms you’ll encounter in your chart and during our reading.

Activation is any gate that is colored in on the BodyGraph, whether as part of a defined channel or not. Activated gates are consistent and reliable themes in your life that determine how your body processes information and how you interact with others. Think of activation as what makes you uniquely you.

Aura is an electromagnetic frequency that extends roughly two arm lengths in all directions around us. This invisible energy field surrounds all living creatures and communicates who we are to others.  

Awareness is an understanding of how your body is designed to function and creates the internal space to make conscious choices based on your unique needs.

BodyGraph is the blueprint for your energy, how it functions in your body, and how it interacts with the energy of others. 

Bridge Gates are the gates at the other end of a channel that would connect two areas of definition in your chart. These themes have a strong attraction for you.

Centers are hubs much like chakras that transform energy in the body as it circulates, associated with the various systems of the body (endocrine, digestive, nervous, muscular). The BodyGraph maps out nine centers, which are represented by the shapes you see on the chart:

Ajna — center of conceptualization; how you process information
G — center of identity, love and direction; how we connect with the Collective
Head — center of inspiration, what we feel pressure to think about
Heart/Ego — center for will power, ego strength, and self-worth
Root — center for existential momentum; what drives and motivates us
Sacral — center for our creative life-force energy that operates in response to external cues like questions or situations
Spleen —center for survival awareness that connects us to our animal instincts; existential state of physical awareness/safety/health in the moment
Solar Plexus — center of emotional intelligence that generates an emotional wave and is connected to the endocrine and nervous system
Throat — center for metabolism, manifestation, and communication

Channels are pathways that carry, link, and transform energy between the nine centers. They can be defined (black or red) or undefined (white). 

Circuitry organizes the flow of energy throughout the BodyGraph. There are three main circuits, each with its own energetic quality.

Collective energy is focused on sharing, reflecting on, and making sense of the past, to safely move forward as a large group.
Individual energy is focused on empowering the self, inspired by intuitive knowing that arises in the moment.
Tribal energy is focused on supporting and ensuring survival and procreation of the human species on the material plane.

Conditioning is the pressure and influence from external sources on the mind to conform to patterns and ways of being that are not in alignment with the true self.

Definition represents what is consistently and reliably you. When a gate or channel is defined it is part of how you show up in the world. Definition is always an expression of individuality. Your eye color, for example, is defined. It is limited and therefore unique. 

Energy Type (Aura Type) is the category that explains how you optimize your unique energy across many areas of your life—including relationships, work, digestion, for more vitality and ease. Just as humans have four blood groups, there are four energy types, or aura types: Manifestor, Generator (including Manifesting Generator), Projector, and Reflector.

Manifestors are initiators that are here to pursue their internal urges
Generators (and Manifesting Generators) are builders that are here to share their powerful creative energy
Projectors are efficient, insightful guides and managers of energy
Reflectors are valuable mirrors of their environment and reflect the quality of energy they perceive

Gates filter the flow of energy between centers, each with a unique theme and quality.

Incarnation Cross is the main theme that manifests throughout your life based on the conscious/unconscious sun/earth activations. 

Inner Authority is the source of internal guidance for decision-making. Think of it as your personal GPS.

Not-self is the construct of the mind when it identifies with what is not you, a feeling that comes up when you are acting out of alignment with your energy type.

Openness is all that is white or undefined in the BodyGraph, so energy centers, gates and channels. It is where we receive external conditioning and have unlimited potential for growth and wisdom.

Profile is your personality structure. Like an archetype, it explains how you play out your unique purpose in life. There are 12 profiles.

Strategy is how you were designed to move through life and utilize opportunities, depending on how your body processes information. You do this by allowing your mind to surrender its control, creating the feeling of less resistance and more flow in your body.
