YOU ARE THE

Shadow Code of Authenticity

EQUALITY • FREEDOM • VALUES

You move through life tuned TO WHAT FEELS REAL.

The most important thing to you is authentic expression of individuality. Every choice you make is filtered through what feels right, honest, and real - it must be a reflection of your inner truth. Self-expression is your art form, turning emotion into beauty and experience into meaning. You value sincerity over status and would rather stand alone than betray your values. Your sensitivity runs deep, even when it’s hard to show. Much of your life has been learning that protecting your peace doesn’t mean hiding from the world, and that being seen in your truth is what keeps you genuinely free.

your SUPER POWER

You embody integrity. Your grounded empathy and perceptive eye reveal beauty and truth in the ordinary, inspiring others to slow down, reconnect to themselves, and live from genuine inner alignment.

the EGO

You can cling to moral certainty and shut out what feels false. When hurt, you withdraw or become critical, mistaking self-protection for strength and cutting off connection that could soften you.

Detangling your Shadow Code means embracing imperfection, letting your truth breathe, and staying open enough for love and logic to coexist.

Your Code Breakdown

THE CHANNEL OF VALUES

THE CHANNEL ENERGY: THE HERO

• Your leading most dominant channel

• Moves with confidence and effortless energy

• Forms a large part of your ego

• Can become inflated when challenged

The Hero channel is where you instinctively lead from, carrying a familiar sense of strength, direction, and capability. It gives you confidence to engage and persevere through whatever life brings. Because it feels flawless, you may turn to it automatically and defend it strongly.

When it feels challenged, you might rush to protect its value or seek recognition for what it contributes. When overidentified with, the Hero can create a superiority complex, pushing you to assume you are always correct. Growth comes from recognizing its limits and allowing other channels to contribute.

HERO COGNITIVE FUNCTION:

INTROVERTED FEELING: Aligns choices and expression with deeply held personal values to maintain authenticity and peace within.

HERO SOMATIC ZONE:

• THE PERICARDIUM RESERVE

Trust • Intimacy • Compassion • Jealousy

OVERVIEW:

As The Hero channel, Introverted Feeling serves as an inner compass for authenticity and moral truth. It reads the emotional tone of life through a deeply personal lens, seeking alignment between values and lived reality. Quiet yet intense, it protects what feels sacred and upholds the integrity of the heart’s voice.

A replenished Pericardium reserve buffers emotional overload, restoring trust, playfulness, and balanced connection so empathy can move freely without collapsing into overwhelm.

Integrity · Compassion · Safety

THE CHANNEL OF NOW

THE CHANNEL ENERGY: THE PARENT

• Guides, supports, and contributes

• Motivated by service, growth, and care

• Forms part of your ego

• Can become overprotective or intrusive

The Parent channel offers wisdom, guidance, and nurturing energy. It shows up when you feel responsible for helping others grow or when you sense someone needs support. This channel doesn’t seek admiration; it wants to know it made a meaningful difference. As the co-pilot to your Hero, it steadies your dominant energy and brings balance to how you engage the world.

If the Hero moves outward, the Parent grounds you inward; if the Hero turns inward, the Parent helps you connect and express outwardly. When overidentified with, it can become patronizing or limiting to others independence.

PARENT COGNITIVE FUNCTION

EXTROVERTED SENSING: Engages directly with the environment, responding instinctively to what is real and alive right now.

PARENT SOMATIC ZONE:

• THE STOMECH RESERVE

• Nourishment • Satisfaction • Grounded • Depletion

OVERVIEW:

As The Parent channel, Extraverted Sensing guides others through hands-on involvement, modelling procedures, and adapting smoothly to whatever the moment presents. It immerses fully in physical tasks, noticing fine sensory details such as colour, texture, and shape, and repurposing tools creatively. You care for environments so others can enjoy life and act confidently.

A replenished Stomach reserve prevents overdoing, settling tummy tension and impatience while transforming pressure into grounded, tangible support.

Immersion · Practicality · Support

THE CHANNEL OF PATTERNS

THE CHANNEL ENERGY: THE CHILD

• Seeks reassurance and attention

• Wants to please but is unreliable

• Forms part of your ego

• Can throw tantrums under stress

The Child channel holds innocence, imagination, and a desire to be seen. It brings fun, curiosity, and creative ideas into your system, often in unexpected ways. Because it feels tender, you may overestimate its maturity or promise more than you can deliver. When this channel feels unseen or dismissed, disappointment or emotional reactions can surface quickly.

This channel works opposite your Parent Channel to maintain internal balance. If your Parent moves outward, the Child draws energy inward to rest and replenish. If your Parent turns inward, the Child directs energy outward to re-engage with life.

CHILD COGNITIVE FUNCTION:

INTROVERTED INTUITION: Interprets symbols and subconscious patterns to reveal deeper meaning and foresight for what is unfolding.

CHILD SOMATIC ZONE:

• THE KIDNEY RESERVE

• Willpower • Depth • Dread • Paranoia

OVERVIEW:

As The Child channel, Extraverted Thinking enjoys taking charge in playful bursts, finding fun in organizing tasks or solving challenges, yet may overcomplicate directions or micromanage inconsistently. Advice can come with childish certainty, and suggestions may feel like demands. This channel struggles to find its own voice of authority and may hide leadership needs under humour.

A replenished Gallbladder reserve steadies irritation, enabling clear boundaries and gentle structure instead of frustration or bossiness.

Playful · Organizing · Irritated

THE CHANNEL OF EXECUTION

THE CHANNEL ENERGY: SHADOW DOOR

• Sits on border of your conscious awareness

• Acts as a bridge into the unconscious

• Activates under stress and feels difficult to control

• Is your most potent channel for transformation

Your Shadow Door Channel sits at the edge of consciousness. It is your weakest channel while simultaneously holding the most transformative potential. Under extreme stress, this channel can mute your Hero Channel and take over your code, allowing shadow complexes to surface and creating “was that really me?” moments.

You may find yourself drawn toward people who are strong in this channel, or experiences that require its use. However, this pull can swing between over-idealisation of those who excel here and judgment toward them, creating tension until balance is restored. At times, its influence can feel alluring, leading you to overestimate your skill with it.

SHADOW DOOR COGNITIVE FUNCTION

EXTROVERTED THINKING: Implements organized strategies to move ideas into structure, results, and tangible outcomes.

SHADOW DOOR SOMATIC ZONE:

• THE GALL BLADDER RESERVE

• Boldness • Resolution • initiative • Bitterness

OVERVIEW:

As The Shadow Door channel, Extraverted Thinking can create rigid standards and harsh self-criticism, fearing inferiority if criteria are not met. It may over plan, schedule tightly, or abruptly end commitments that do not align, then feel distraught when others ignore instructions. This channel can defend a single logical point intensely.

A replenished Gallbladder reserve eases pressure, supporting flexible structure and steady decisions rather than perfectionism or sudden overcontrol.

The Art of Detangling

Your Code

When you first meet your Shadow Code, it can feel like holding a LARGE knotted ball of string.

All your channels tangled together, nothing quite making sense.

You might wonder if you have the time or energy to untangle it. But as you begin on one small knot, things start to loosen. The channels become clearer, the body unwinds, emotions release, and your somatic reserves replenish.

Some knots tighten before they release, yet each one you untangle brings you deeper into yourself. This is the lifelong journey of detangling, the slow intimate descent back to self.

To know self is to have journeyed through the detangling, to have met the knots, the tension, and the resistance, and stayed. It’s not about awakening or reaching higher states, but about finding quiet joy in the slow unraveling, the peace that comes when nothing needs fixing, only understanding.
