Circuit

Circuit

A group of Gates and Channels sharing a specific biological and experiential theme — the basic unit of circuit organization in the BodyGraph.

A Circuit is a grouping of specific Gates and Channels in the BodyGraph that share a common biological function, experiential theme, and energy mechanic. Circuits are the organizational logic beneath the individual channels — they reveal why certain energies belong together and how they interact.

The three main Circuit Groups (Individual, Collective, and Tribal) each contain circuits and sub-circuits:

Individual Circuit Group:<br>- Knowing Circuit (also called the Centering or Integration circuit in some formulations)<br>- Integration channels (10, 20, 34, 57)

Collective Circuit Group:<br>- Logic Circuit (Understanding) — operates through pattern recognition, logical processing, and sharing tested knowledge<br>- Abstract Circuit (Sensing) — operates through experience, memory, and retrospective wisdom

Tribal Circuit Group:<br>- Ego Circuit — supports the social and material agreements of tribal community<br>- Defense Circuit — supports the physical survival, reproduction, and care of the tribe

Each circuit moves energy in a specific way with a specific purpose:<br>- Individual circuits mutate and individuate — they carry the impulse for change<br>- Collective circuits share — they process and transmit knowledge and experience<br>- Tribal circuits bond — they sustain and protect community through agreements and resources
