In the Human Design system, channels connect centers in your chart. They represent the link and information between these centers, and influence how you experience and express specific themes in life. Each channel is defined by two gates, and when both gates are fully connected, the channel is defined. Defined channels bring consistent energy in your life.
Each channel has a theme (e.g. skills, emotion, intimacy, thinking, logic, etc). They also highlight areas where you have consistent energy. If you inderstand your channels and the gates in human design you will know better your key strengths and challenges of your design.
Channels in the Human Design chart connect two centers. When both gates at the end of a channel are activated, the centers they connect become defined, meaning their energy is consistently available in your life.
These connections create specific themes. For example, a channel connecting the Throat Center and Sacral Center means consistent energy for communication and action. Channels also define your unique contributions to the world by shaping how you express yourself and respond to life’s challenges.
Channels connect human design centers, and they are categorized based on their function and the energy flow they generate (e.g. Manifested, Generated, Manifested Generated, and Projected)
These channels connect the Throat Center to a motor center (Sacral, Solar Plexus, Heart, or Root). This means that energy is coming out in your voice.
These include channels connected to the the Sacral Center, but not connected directly to the Throat.
These channels link the Sacral Center to the Throat Center through an intermediary center.

In Human Design, channels are the connections between gates in two different centers on the body graph. When both gates on either side of a channel are activated, the entire channel becomes “activated” or “defined”. This means the energy of the channel is consistently available to you. When a channel is activated, it also defines the two centers it connects. Defined centers are consistent and reliable in their energy, which defined how you experience and interact with the world.
