YOU ARE THE

Shadow Code of Order

RESULTS • PRAGMATIC • LEADERSHIP

You bring structure where OTHERS SEE CHAOS

You feel most at peace when things are clear and running smoothly. When something falls apart, you step in, steady and capable, already sorting what needs to happen next. You don’t do it for attention, you do it because it’s your way of caring about what truly matters. You take pride in being reliable, yet it can sting when others don’t match your effort. Much of your life has been learning that control doesn’t equal safety and that order isn’t lost when you let others lead too. You want results, but you also want respect, and beneath the drive is care, wanting things to go right for everyone, not just for yourself.

your SUPER POWER

You turn ideas into structure. Your clarity and consistency make progress possible, grounding others in action, accountability, and direction that transforms chaos into confidence and purpose.

the EGO

You can cling to control, believing it’s the only way to keep things from falling apart. When trust feels uncertain, you hold on tighter instead of letting others help.

Detangling your Shadow Code means leading through collaboration, trusting shared strength, and letting structure serve people, not define them.

Your Code Breakdown

THE CHANNEL OF EXECUTION

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:

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

HERO SOMATIC ZONE:

• THE GALL BLADDER RESERVE

• Boldness • Resolution • initiative • Bitterness

OVERVIEW:

As The Hero channel, Extraverted Thinking organizes people, tools, and timelines to achieve clear goals with efficiency and structure. It delegates, sets parameters, moderates discussion, and rises confidently in crisis, turning chaos into coordinated action. This channel values strategy, measurable progress, and well-defined roles.

A replenished Gallbladder reserve channels boldness into clear decisions, supporting forward momentum, confident leadership, and clean resolution rather than rigidity, overcontrol, or competitive strain.

THE CHANNEL OF MEMORY

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

INTROVERTED SENSING: Applies lived experience to the present moment to create accuracy, reliability, and inner stability.

PARENT SOMATIC ZONE:

• THE SPLEEN RESERVE

• Stability • Self Trust • Empathy • Ruminition

OVERVIEW:

In The Parent channel, Introverted Sensing offers structure, predictable pacing, and tangible steps drawn from lived experience. You create safety by organizing routines, sequencing information, and preventing overwhelm. Others rely on your steady presence and consistent follow-through.

A replenished Spleen reserve eases pressure, softening internal worry and tightening muscles, restoring somatic stability so you can guide through physical calm rather than anxious urgency.

Structure · Safety · Reliability

THE CHANNEL OF OPENINGS

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:

EXTROVERTED INTUITION: Explores external patterns and emerging ideas to reimagine what could be improved, evolved, or created next.

CHILD SOMATIC ZONE:

• THE LIVER RESERVE

• Creativity • Adaptability • Expansion • Irratibility

OVERVIEW:

As The Child channel, Extraverted Intuition becomes captivated by new ideas, leaping toward possibilities with playful enthusiasm. It enjoys scanning images, browsing for inspiration, and making lists of future adventures, yet often feels uncertain when choosing between options. This channel may fuss if its idea is not chosen but delights in unexpected creativity.

A replenished Liver reserve releases internal irritability, enabling relaxed curiosity and gentle decision-making rather than indecision or quiet resentment.

THE CHANNEL OF VALUES

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

SHADOW DOOR SOMATIC ZONE:

• THE STOMECH RESERVE

• Nourishment • Satisfaction • Grounded • Depletion

OVERVIEW:

When Extraverted Sensing sits in the Shadow Door, the sensing world can feel overwhelming or disorienting, especially in unfamiliar environments. You may become hyper attuned to aesthetics, textures, or atmosphere, and impulsively reach for sensory escape through food, drink, purchases, or stimulation. Addictive behaviours can emerge as grounding is sought externally.

A replenished Stomach reserve settles cravings and energy drain, easing overwhelm and restoring calm, embodied presence so the physical world feels supportive rather than consuming.

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.
