Human Design is a unique system of self-discovery that can help individuals understand themselves and their purpose in life.

It combines astrology, the I Ching, the Kabbalah, the Hindu-Brahmin chakra system, and quantum physics to create a comprehensive system that provides insights into an individual's strengths, weaknesses, and optimal life path. Human Design is based on the idea that each person has a unique design, which can be determined by analyzing their birth date, time, and location.

Human Design was developed in the late 1980s by Robert Allan Krakower, who later changed his name to Ra Uru Hu, after a mystical experience that led him to create this system. Human Design is not a religion or belief system; it is a tool for self-understanding and personal growth. It is a complex system, and the following is an overview of the most important concepts in Human Design.

Type

The first element of Human Design is Type, which determines how an individual interacts with the world. There are five different Types:

• Manifestor: This Type is here to initiate and start things. Manifestors have a strong sense of purpose and direction, and they are not designed to wait for others to take action. They can be very powerful, but they need to be aware of their impact on others and learn to communicate their intentions clearly.
• Generator: This Type is here to respond to life. Generators have a powerful life force and are designed to work hard and find satisfaction in their work. They need to be doing work that they love, or they can become frustrated and stuck. Generators also have a strong gut instinct and need to learn to trust it.
• Projector: This Type is here to guide and direct others. Projectors have a talent for seeing the potential in others and helping them to achieve their goals. They need to be recognized for their talents and invited into situations where they can contribute their unique perspective.
• Reflector: This Type is here to reflect the health of the community. Reflectors are highly sensitive to their environment and can pick up on the energy of the people around them. They need to be in a healthy and supportive environment to thrive.
• Manifesting Generator: This Type is a combination of the Manifestor and Generator Types. Manifesting Generators have a strong sense of purpose and direction, like a Manifestor, but they also need to respond to life like a Generator. They can be powerful and efficient, but they need to be aware of their impact on others and learn to communicate their intentions clearly.

Strategy

Once an individual has determined their Type, the next element of Human Design is Strategy, which is the way that individuals can best navigate through life. Each Type has a specific Strategy that they can use to maximize their potential:

• Manifestor: The Manifestor's Strategy is to inform. Manifestors need to communicate their intentions clearly and let others know what they are doing. This helps to avoid resistance and allows the Manifestor to move forward with their plans.
• Generator: The Generator's Strategy is to wait to respond. Generators need to be patient and wait for the right opportunities to come to them. When they receive a response from the universe, they need to follow their gut instinct and take action.
• Projector: The Projector's Strategy is to wait for an invitation. Projectors need to be recognized for their talents and invited into situations where they can contribute their unique perspective. They should not try to initiate things on their own.
• Reflector: The Reflector's Strategy is to wait a lunar cycle. Reflectors need to take time to reflect on their decisions and wait for a full lunar cycle before making any major decisions.
• Manifesting Generator: The Manifesting Generator's Strategy is to respond and inform. Manifesting Generators need to respond to opportunities that come their way and then inform others about their intentions. This helps to avoid resistance and allows the Manifesting Generator to move forward with their plans. However, it is important for Manifesting Generators to remember to respond before they inform. This means that they need to trust their gut instinct and take action before communicating their intentions to others.

Authority

The third element of Human Design is Authority, which is the decision-making process that individuals should use to make the best choices for their life. There are seven different Authorities, which are based on the individual's energy centers:

• Emotional: This Authority is based on the individual's emotional waves. Emotional authorities need to wait for their emotions to settle before making any decisions.
• Sacral: This Authority is based on the individual's gut response. Sacral authorities need to listen to their gut instinct and follow what feels right for them.
• Splenic: This Authority is based on the individual's intuition. Splenic authorities need to listen to their inner voice and trust their instincts.
• Ego: This Authority is based on the individual's sense of self-worth. Ego authorities need to make decisions that align with their sense of purpose and self-worth.
• Self: This Authority is based on the individual's sense of identity. Self authorities need to make decisions that align with their authentic self.
• Environmental: This Authority is based on the individual's environment. Environmental authorities need to make decisions based on the energy of their environment.
• Lunar: This Authority is based on the lunar cycle. Lunar authorities need to wait for the right lunar cycle before making any major decisions.

Profile

The fourth element of Human Design is Profile, which is the way that individuals interact with others. 

The first number in the Profile represents an individual's conscious personality traits, while the second number represents their unconscious personality traits.

The numbers in human design profiles represent the two conscious personality aspects that shape an individual's approach to life and their interactions with others. Each number in the profile corresponds to a specific line in the hexagram of the I Ching, an ancient Chinese divination system.

The first number in the profile indicates the individual's conscious personality or conscious design. This number represents the person's innate qualities and characteristics that they are aware of and can access in their everyday life. The conscious design is often referred to as the "mask" that the person wears in public, as it represents how they present themselves to the world.

The second number in the profile represents the individual's unconscious personality or unconscious design. This number represents the person's hidden potential and qualities that they may not be aware of or have difficulty accessing. The unconscious design is often referred to as the person's "true self" or their innermost nature, as it represents the qualities that they possess deep down but may not necessarily show to the world.

For example the 3/5 numbers represent the conscious aspect of the person's profile. The number 3, represents the Martyr archetype. This suggests that the person may be willing to take risks and learn from their mistakes, even if it means experiencing setbacks or failures along the way.

The unconscious aspect of the profile is the number 5, which represents the Heretic archetype. This suggests that the person may have a natural tendency to challenge convention and explore new ideas or ways of doing things, even if they are unconventional or controversial.

Together, these two aspects of the person's profile can provide insights into their unique strengths, challenges, and life path. Understanding one's human design profile can be a useful tool for personal growth and development, as well as for building stronger relationships and pursuing one's goals and aspirations.

The combination of the two numbers in the profile creates a unique blueprint for each individual, representing their strengths, weaknesses, and potential for growth. The two numbers work together to create a complex and multifaceted personality profile that can provide insights into the person's life path, purpose, and relationships.

It's important to note that while the numbers in the human design profile provide valuable information about an individual, they are not meant to limit or define a person. Rather, they serve as a tool for self-discovery and understanding, helping individuals to recognize their strengths and areas for growth and development.

Human Design Charts

Human design charts are diagrams that show the various components of a person's human design system. The human design system is a complex system that combines elements of astrology, the I Ching, the Kabbalah, and quantum physics to create a unique blueprint for each person's life.

A human design chart typically includes the following components:

• Type: This refers to the person's energy type, which can be Generator, Manifestor, Projector, or Reflector.

• Authority: This refers to the person's decision-making authority, which can be Emotional, Sacral, Splenic, Ego, or Self.

• Gates: This refers to the 64 gates in the body, which are specific energy channels that connect the centers and reflect different aspects of the person's life experience.

• Channels: This refers to the 36 channels in the body, which are formed by the connection of two gates and reflect specific themes and life experiences.

• Incarnation Cross: This refers to the specific combination of gates and channels that make up the person's life purpose and path.

Human design charts can be complex and may require some study and interpretation to fully understand. However, they can provide valuable insights into a person's unique strengths, challenges, and life path, and can be a useful tool for personal growth and development.
