Introduction to Human Design Gate 14 and Gene Key 14
Human Design Gate 14 is The Gate of Power Skills.
In the I’Ching, this gate is referred to as Possession in Great Measure, symbolized by a wagon overflowing with gold coins. People with this gate defined often feel like “lucky charms” for their family, friends, and business associates. The energy of abundance is contagious here, attracting opportunities, resources, and prosperity.
With Gate 14 defined, you carry the power to take creative energy and push it out into the world in ways that generate wealth and impact. This is the gate of abundance born from aligned work.
Where is Gate 14 in your Human Design Chart?
Gate 14 is located in the Sacral Centre of the bodygraph or Human Design chart.
The Sacral Centre is the motor of life force, energy, and sustainability. With Gate 14 defined here, there’s a consistent ability to harness energy toward creative work that leads to material success and expansion.
The 2-14 Channel and Gate 14’s Human Design Circuitry
Think of Human Design Circuitry as the electrical wiring of the chart — the underlying network that determines how energy flows.
There are three main types of circuitry: Individual, Collective, and Tribal.
Gate 14 is part of Individual Circuitry.
Paired with Gate 2 in the G Centre, it forms the Channel of the Beat (2-14). This is the channel of direction and resources. Gate 2 provides guidance and direction, while Gate 14 brings the energy and skills to fuel abundance.
Together, this channel symbolizes knowing where to go (Gate 2) and having the power to make it happen (Gate 14). It’s deeply tied to prosperity, creativity, and alignment with higher purpose. You can read about Gate 2 here.
Channel 2-14 is The Channel of the Beat. It links the G Centre and the Sacral Centre.
If this channel is defined in your chart, both your Sacral and G Centres will be defined.

Check your chart to see if Gate 14 is defined (coloured line) or undefined (blank line). Then note whether your Sacral Centre is defined or undefined.
Defined Gate 14 in a Defined Sacral Centre
When Gate 14 is defined within a defined Sacral, you have consistent access to sustainable creative energy that fuels abundance. You’re here to generate prosperity through passion-driven work. If your Sacral is defined, it means you’re a Generator Type in Human Design.
(Manifesting Generator or Generator)
Defined Gate 14 in an Undefined Sacral Centre
If a gate is defined in an undefined centre, it is considered dormant. It won’t be active all the time but can turn on in the presence of others
or planetary transits.
With dormant Gate 14, your ability to channel abundance and creative energy may show up situationally when activated by others or
the cosmos.
Undefined Gate 14
If Gate 14 is undefined in your chart, you may experience abundance energy when transits or people in your environment activate it.
These experiences can feel amplified but won’t be consistent.
Unveiling the Shadow of Gate 14 | Gene Key 14
According to Gene Keys, the shadow of Gate 14 is compromise.
Richard Rudd explains that this Gene Key moves from compromise, through competence, to bounteousness.
At the shadow level, this gate may settle for less or misuse its power for material gain.
At the gift level, Gate 14 expresses competence - the skilled, aligned action that channels creativity into prosperity.
At its siddhi, bounteousness, abundance overflows and benefits not just the self, but the collective.
