Model of understanding various "experiences of consciousness" . First proposed by Tim Leary and then refined by Robert Anton Wilson.
Terrestrial Circuits
First Circuit
Vegetative-Invertebrate / Oral Bio-Survival
This circuit is concerned with nourishment, physical safety, comfort and survival, suckling, cuddling, etc. It begins with one spatial dimension, forward/back.
Imprinted in early infancy- leads to a default life position of feeling "okay" or "not okay". A negative experience during this phase could lead to a deep sensation of the environment generally being hostile.
Second Circuit
Emotional-Locomotion Circuit/ Anal-Territorial
Domination/submission and territory.
Imprinted in toddler phase. Positive experiences here lead to a "Dominant" attitude versus a "submissive" attitude.
The imprinting of the first 2 circuits leads to a particular elemental disposition
The previous two circuits can only imprint in a binary manner: Trust/Suspicion for the first, and Dominance/Submission for the second. This means that there are four possible combinations of base imprints. These can then be mapped to The Four Primary Elements Private or Broken Links

- Trust/Dominance: Fire (friendly strength)
- Trust/Submission: Water (Friendly Weakness)
- Suspicion/Dominance: Air (Unfriendly Strength)
- Suspicion/Submission: Earth (Unfriendly Weakness)
Third Circuit
Laryngeal-Manual Symbolic/ Semantic Time-Binding
Symbols, language, logic. This circuit is the minds ability to abstract the world into a symbol. Some animals like crows show this ability as well- to be able to look at a problem and imagine solutions then apply the solution to the real scenario.
Fourth Circuit
Socio-Sexual Domestication
Connected with our first orgasm experience. Is concerned with social connections, tribe and family. reproduction. Cultural Values
Post Terrestrial
Fifth Circuit
Neurosomatic Circuit
When activated, a non-conceptual feeling of well being arises. This is a sort of elevated circuit from the physical needs of the body while still being fully aware of it. While the first circuit regards a sensation of physical wellbeing this circuit regards a sensation of metaphysical wellbeing.
Sixth Circuit
Neuo-Electric/ Metaprogramming
This circuit is aware of itself and is capable of reprogramming the previous circuits. This allows us to perform self-initiation.
Seventh Circuit
Neurogenetic/ Morphogenetic
This is our connection to our evolutionary history- and in fact the genetic history of all life. This circuit seems to be the gateway to the Aativan consciouness described by Austin Osman SpareAustin Osman Spare
30 December 1886 – 15 May 1956
English artist and occultist. Briefly cohort of Aleister Crowley but the two had a falling out.
Wrote on Desires , primordial magic, genius and madness
where in he sinks into the evolutionary consciouness of our ancestors.
Eighth Circuit
Neuro-Atomic Metaphysiology / Non-Local Quantum
Non-local awareness and enlightenment.
