	One Power - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Finally, male and female channelers experience the Power differently: a woman would describe it as a gentle force requiring patience, acceptance, guidance, and relaxation, while a man frequently describes it as a rough torrent requiring strict control and exertion of force.
		In short, women surrender saidar, influencing it from within, while men seize saidin, manipulating it from without.
		This essential difference in the "feeling" of the Power means that a woman cannot teach a man to channel, and vice-versa (it has been tried, many, many times), especially as many "weaves" (spells) which work for one sex do not work the same way for the other.

	Field of Battle
		As the Saidar grew near to the source, he could feel the power as it raced along the outline of his spirit form.
		Saidar basked in the power and allowed the stream of energy to lead him to the source.
		As the energy became thicker and stronger, Saidar, to his relief, realised that a source of goodness was gathering the power.

		So, saidin is sqeezed away from saidar and saidar presses saidin to move faster: the saidar is the flow under pressure and saidin is a flow that naturally runs away, so the saidar funnel with it's flower-like, rich of spirales form, is functioning like a propeller, like a fan.
		The saidar funnel is in the same time on the surface of Saidin and in Shadar Logoth, so the movement, that is forced on the Taint, is the same movement that is forced on Shadar Logoth.
		During the Cleansing especially the opposiiton of saidin and saidar was asid to be teh driving force causing saidar to flow faster to Shadar Logoth and to cause the shifting of the Taint.

		Saidar is obviously failing and we have been given no reasons why so far.
		saidar and saidin are two halves of a whole.
		IMO the failing of Saidar is a result of the MASSIVE amount of the Power used to cleanse Saidin.

	Battling the Sea
		Saidar rushed through her like a maddening flood that she either controlled or was swept away with.
		She drew in all of saidar she could stand, and did the only thing she knew how to for lightning.
		For an instant, as she felt the flows explode, the temptation to draw all of saidar that she could hold, and then more, was almost overwhelming.

		In even more simple terms, if saidar is required as the desired key to performing a feat, then saidin is used to contain the saidar and create the appropriate complexities and structure required to make the weave work.
		If saidar is the river, then saidin is used to form the river bank and create millions of small tributaries by giving the saidar direction.
		Saidar would be drawn by the Bowl and he would see the same convolutions which Elayne saw.

	The Saga of the Eye - Al'cair'rahienallen - To hunt with Saidar
		The room was crowded with all three of Lorynne’s warders in it, crowded around her bed, add Alexander to the mix, lounging by the fireplace the room seemed fit to burst.
		She was not sure how long they stood there, the street was silent and empty and she had released Saidar when she had been sure that the warehouse held what they sought.
		Setting out the yellow tried to move as silently as she could, not that there was much need, the amount of Saidar she was holding was enough to light a beacon for any channeller close enough.

		One of these aspects, named saidar, is touchable only by a small percentage of the human, feminine population.
		However, there is a deep contrast between saidin and saidar that is best personified by the ancient symbol of Aes Sedai, which is now often cloven in two to form the flame and fang, the latter of which is often scrawled on the doors of those accused of being Friends.
		Saidar has a softer output then saidin, which is harder, somehow, and perhaps a trifle bitter though the ‘Taint’ cannot be sensed by gholem.

	2.3.17 Is Saidar Failing?
		Be that as it may, the second and far greater difficulty with the idea that the Cleansing weakened saidar is that the weakening and gaps are isolated incidents.
		Rand and all of the Asha'man seem certain the Taint is completely gone, and while their judgment on the matter may be suspect, it seems impossible that saidar channelers would fail to notice if saidar had become tainted.
		The first thing to note is that these isolated instances of saidar failing all seem to be concerned with one thing: vermin.

		For men, this potential is created by a tiny bit of Saidar that allows them to 'pull' the power from the Source.
		But when the two came in contact it produced a short-circuit affect, which is to say it cause a feedback loop of Power that caused the Amulet to get hot instead.

	2.3.12 What caused the One Power weirdness in Ebou Dar?
		This same phenomenon was witnessed by the WOs with Perrin as a weave of saidar.
		It is known that the Windfinders have a very different style of weaving saidar than anyone else, a style that involves thick, rope-like strands of Power.
		This style of weaving, and their unprecedented personal control over the weather, was unknown in the Age of Legends, when the Bowl of the Winds was created.

	Channeling
		For a woman, this means surrendering to Saidar, for a man this means bending Saidin to their will.
		At this point, the woman must surrender to the power of Saidar - if they try to force it then it will not come - and this is in fact the hardest part of Channeling for a Novice to learn.
		For the most part, Surrendering to Saidar is so simple to a trained Channeler that it does not require a roll.

		WHat makes the difference so large is Saidin and Saidar, which are the same yet utterly different, much the same as a man and women are the same, as we're both human, but utterly different.
		Saidar is about giving in to gain control, subtlety and precision, and cooperation.
		I think that the qualities of saidar are reflected in the Aes Sedai, and in the actions of the Tower over the years.

		Always the first to rush to his aid and never the one to leave his side, she is very protective of Lir and tries to force herself to get better a channeling saidar to be of more use to him than just making gateways.
		He took her with him everywhere and trained her in martial arts but it was only recently that Serah found out that she could channel saidar.
		Serah believes that she doesn’t need anybody but Lir and can learn to channel saidar on her own and as such, has taken it upon herself to self study the learning of saidar through books, and sometimes eavesdropping on the novice classes whenever she can get away with it.

	The One Power And The True Source
		Drawing saidar and channeling it without the benefit of guidance or training results in death for four out of five women born with the ability.
		If a woman draws too much saidar, or draws saidar too often, she can be burned out or overloaded, losing her ability to channel, or, at worst, killing herself.
		The details remain lost in the ruins of the Age of Legends, although it is possible that there may be sources hidden away in the library of the White Tower.

		Jarrue slowly reaches out with a flow of Spirit, letting it ease atop a section of the sphere and then spread out some, creating a small patch of Saidar that is in her control.
		Jarrue feels the Saidar build within you, her senses hyper-extended for the time being.

		Saidar is the part of magic which females touch.
		Saidin is the tainted male counterpart to saidar.
		To a man, magic is a constant struggle, a fight to bend saidin to his will, and not be consumed by its fiery power.

		She embraced Saidar and played with weaves of Fire, randomly burning patches of grass or leaves but being careful not to allow them to start a large fire.
		Without knowledge of it, she wove a large flow of fire over the grass before her, setting about an area in which a group of twenty people could stand in uncramped on fire.
		Embracing the source again, she soon realised it was useless, considering she did not know very much about the control of Saidar.

		They can't see the flows or the glow of saidar around her, which seems to be the Reversing affect.
		Then we have Cyndanes POV where she thinks that the fact that she knows how to Reverse a flow is an advantage over Alivia, and the way it is descrived matches Verin et al's experience with Graendal.

		The may have been foreshadowed in the failing effects of saidar in CoT when the rogue Aes Sedai have weevils getting into their food and when Elaida notices the flowers starting to die.
		if saidar became tainted, i think that it would be realized because there are thousands upon thousands of women channeling and i think someone would notice that saidar didn't feel right.
		if you're saying that saidar has been strained, well it was strained after the incident with the bowl of the winds.

		My reasoning is that the T'A prevent people within from channeling saidar and saidin because the T'A keeps it out, but the wells, since they are brought inside, they contain OP that is already within Far Madding, so it can be channeled.
		Rand was utilizing the female half of the Power without a doubt...he described quite vividly his difficulty surrendering to saidar in order to control it, quite different from what he is used to with saidin.
		Unlikely - a man can't actually channel saidar himself, he merely controls the flow of saidar from a female channeler he's linked with.

		She recited the weave Phrygiana had made in her mind a few times, until she was reassured that she really wasn’t stupid, and then she leaned over and placed a hand on the man’s forehead.
		She almost jerked away again as she embraced saidar, for it seemed she could sense all the things wrong with his body.

		The glow of Saidar appears around her, bright with her considerable strength, as she sweeps aside the boxes Rhynne had been hiding behind with Air as though the were feathers.
		Thick ropes of Air extend to loop beneath her arms, intending to lift her off her feet while at the same time another weave is sent out to stop the girl's cries from ringing out in the room.
		She maintains her connection with Saidar dispite Sionil's attempts at shielding her, likely due to the fact that she is embraced almost to the point of burnout..
