HONOR YOUR BLUEPRINT

We frequently ask: “Why am I here?” We search for belonging, for how to make our lives mean something. The answer isn’t hidden in some distant land or esoteric text; it resides in us. Everyone has a purpose. And it isn’t about your role or job title, but about the fundamental reason you exist. Your yearnings will continue to drive you to define and refine your understanding of your purpose, so pay attention to them. You are here to follow and live out your purpose.

Your purpose is sacred. Your purpose is not accidental, trivial, or interchangeable with another’s purpose. Purpose is a personal assignment woven into your soul. It is your divine inheritance, the agenda entrusted to you that will unfold throughout your life, albeit with considerable trial and error. Recognize that your purpose is sacred. You will identify it through what calls you. It is your responsibility to follow these callings, these nuggets of excitement, to see where they lead. The answers will come as you keep moving forward. The bridge to where you’re headed gets created with each decision and brave step. Design and intention are built into you, so there is no reason to fear that you will not be able to create the bridge to your path. Your path is the one that will be the most meaningful and fulfilling for you.  

Your life is specifically designed to support your purpose. Every challenge or triumph contributes to the unfolding of your purpose. Every experience gives you information that reveals your next step and deepens your understanding of why you are here. This doesn’t mean life will be easy or that the next step is obvious. Your design likely includes detours that will teach you resilience, that will insert obstacles that build strength. There will be periods of darkness with no answers, times when you feel you have been abandoned by everything you trusted and believed in. These are times that ask you to let go and wait for the information, insight, or connection that will give you what you need so that you can get moving again.

Consider the tools you have: your talents, interests, and yearnings are to help you find your path and succeed. These tools are not random quirks of personality or fleeting fantasies. The things that genuinely fascinate you, the skills that come naturally to you, and the deep-seated desires that pull at your heart are signposts that point you to your right path. The adolescents intrigued by the disassembly and reassembly of equipment can realize their talent for engineering and innovation. Someone who feels profound empathy for others might find their purpose in healing modalities, counseling, or advocacy. The person who understands the need to respect the environment and the beings that dwell therein might become a naturalist, an environmental scientist with a specific focus on a species or particular terrain, a veterinarian, an activist for the rights of nature, or even an animal communicator. The individual who enjoys storytelling can use that to inspire, educate, or entertain. These innate inclinations are the compass pointing you to your true north. They are, so to speak, your innate vocational DNA that makes you, you. Ignoring them is like a bird refusing to fly or a fish denying its need to live in water.

Your intrinsic design also means you cannot be someone other than who you are. You can expend tremendous energy and endure frustration trying to fit into molds never meant for you. You can contort yourself to meet expectations and chase after definitions of success that do not resonate. Attempting to emulate paths that belong to others is a recipe for discontent and a disservice to your innate design. A rose cannot become a sunflower, nor should it try. Its beauty, fragrance, and essence lay in being a rose. Your unique contribution to the world can only come from embracing and expressing your authentic self. Trying to live someone else’s purpose is like wearing clothes several sizes too small; they constrict, are uncomfortable, and ultimately, unsustainable for wearing. Peace of mind comes with accepting your inherent nature with all its unique contours.

So, what is your role in the grand scheme of things? Your job is to fully utilize the resources you have been given. This is where active participation meets divine endowment. It’s not enough to simply acknowledge your talents; you must cultivate them. It’s not enough to recognize your interests; you must explore them. Your yearnings? They are invitations to take action inside the arena of your purpose. Using what you’ve been given involves a dynamic process of courageous application, discovery, practice, and refinement. It means taking risks, learning from your failures (merely feedback), and persisting in honing the gifts that are uniquely yours.

In committing to finding and following our purpose, we honor and serve all, including ourselves.   Living in accordance with your purpose allows you to bring something to the world that no one else can in the same way. Your distinct gifts, when shared, enrich the collective. They can solve problems, inspire others, or simply create beauty. This is the ultimate service – contributing your irreplaceable part to the whole.

Living your purpose is a deep form of self-honor. It aligns your actions with your essential being. The energy once spent on resisting your nature is freed up to create and contribute, and you will experience deep satisfaction from living your life in alignment with its sacred design.

The journey to uncovering and living your purpose requires self-reflection, courage, and a willingness to trust the inherent wisdom of your natural design. It means listening to the whispers of your heart, honoring your talents, and daring to follow your path. By doing so, you not only discover the profound meaning of your existence, but you will also make your sacred and irreplaceable contribution to the whole.

  1. WINTER SOLSTICE 2019 THROUGH THE LENS OF ASTROLOGY AND HUMAN DESIGN: HONOR WHO YOU WERE AND WHO YOU ARE BECOMING

THE LUNAR MIRROR: UNPACKING THE PROFOUND GIFTS OF THE HUMAN DESIGN REFLECTOR

Reflectors: The Sacred Mirrors of Humanity
Comprising just 1.4% of the population, Reflectors are the rarest and most enigmatic of the five Human Design Types. They’re often misunderstood; not because their role is unclear, but because their very nature stands in such radical contrast to the world around them.

We live in a culture obsessed with fixed identities, personal branding, predictable behavior, and consistent performance. But Reflectors defy consistency. They’re not here to be known for who they are; they’re here to reflect the world to itself. Their power lies not in having a defined sense of self, but in being deeply attuned to the energetic landscape around them. In essence, a Reflector is a living, breathing barometer of environmental and collective health. And that is a sacred role.

The Lunar Design: Sampling, Reflecting, Amplifying
What makes a Reflector’s chart so striking is the total absence of defined centers. All nine centers in their BodyGraph are open or undefined. This is not a lack of power; it’s a different kind of power. Their undefined centers don’t indicate emptiness; they represent openness. Receptivity. Flexibility. Immense potential for wisdom.

While other Types have consistent access to their energy centers, Reflectors are lunar beings, governed not by the Solar cycle (as with most of humanity), but by the lunar cycle. The Moon, moving through all 64 gates of the Human Design mandala every 28.5 days, becomes their primary activator. It grants them temporary access to various energies, enabling them to experience life through every possible lens. Through this cosmic dance, Reflectors develop a panoramic wisdom, a kaleidoscopic understanding of energy, people, and cycles.

The Mirror Effect: Reflecting the World Back to Itself
The gift of the Reflector lies in their ability to reflect, not absorb, not become, but reflect. This distinction is crucial. They are not blank slates or passive sponges. They’re mirrors. And like any high-quality mirror, what they reflect depends on what stands before them.

In the presence of a Reflector, people often experience startling clarity. Reflectors have no fixed energetic agenda. They are designed to be neutral, reflective instruments. When a Reflector sees someone, they may suddenly become aware of the other’s brilliance, conditioning, unresolved shadow, or unexpressed potential. This isn’t judgment. It’s resonance. The Reflector holds up a mirror to who we are, not who we pretend to be.

Because of this, Reflectors often take on the role of spiritual barometers, coaches, guides, or even “truth amplifiers” in communities. Their presence brings energetic transparency to the surface. If the community is in integrity, the Reflector thrives. If not, they suffer.

Disappointment and Delight: The Reflector’s Emotional Compass
Each Type in Human Design has a “not-self” theme, an emotional signal that indicates misalignment. For Reflectors, it is disappointment. This is not the mild letdown of unmet expectations. It’s an existential grief. A gut-level ache that comes from being surrounded by distortion, disconnection, or disingenuousness. It’s the body’s way of saying, “Something here is off.”

By contrast, their signature theme for what alignment feels like is surprise. Specifically, a delightful surprise. The kind that bubbles up when life shows them beauty, truth, synchronicity, or something unexpected and wonderful. Reflectors are here to be amazed by life. Not because it’s always easy or comfortable, but because they are meant to witness the magic of the world in motion.

Environment Is Everything
For Reflectors, the environment is not just important; it’s everything. Because they amplify and reflect their surroundings, the quality of their environment has a direct impact on their well-being. This includes the people, energy, physical space, emotional climate, and even the timing of events.

This is why one of the most empowering things a Reflector can do is intentionally curate their environment. Not with control or rigidity, but with discernment. If a Reflector feels consistently drained, depressed, or disappointed, it’s rarely “their issue.” It reflects their context. Change the context, and the energy often shifts dramatically.

This makes the Reflector’s life a living testimony to a powerful truth: your external environment is a mirror for your internal state—and vice versa.

The Lunar Decision-Making Strategy: A Radical Reframe
Perhaps the most misunderstood aspect of the Reflector strategy is their need to wait a full 28-day lunar cycle before making significant decisions. To a society obsessed with speed and immediacy, this can seem impossible. But it’s not a delay—it’s a deep alignment process.

Over the course of a lunar cycle, Reflectors experience every gate being activated in different ways. This gives them a comprehensive understanding of these energetic influences. They don’t find clarity through thinking. They find it through time, observation, and energetic sampling.

This process cultivates profound patience, a gift many other Types struggle to embody. Reflectors teach us that clarity cannot be rushed; clarity is revealed over time. That wisdom is a process, not a moment. And that the best decisions often arise when we’ve allowed ourselves to feel through every phase, not just the peak of enthusiasm or fear.

The Gift of Panoramic Perspective
Over time, Reflectors develop an extraordinary ability to see patterns. Because they’re not fixed to any one perspective, they can hold multiple truths at once. They see the nuances, the overlaps, the contradictions that others miss.

They are not meant to be absorbed in the “doing” of life all the time. Their gift is witnessing. And when they are invited to share what they see, their insights can be transformative—not because they shout the loudest, but because their words often carry the weight of quiet, lived wisdom.

Reflectors are the energetic “overview effect”—like astronauts seeing the Earth from space. They remind us of the bigger picture. Of what’s working. Of what’s not. Of where the collective is heading. But they can only do this if they’re given the space to be seen, valued, and recognized.

Challenges and Conditioning: Protecting the Inner Terrain
Because Reflectors are so open, they are also deeply susceptible to conditioning. Without awareness, they can absorb and amplify others’ fears, urgency, judgments, or ambition and mistake them for their own. This can lead to profound identity confusion, fatigue, or a persistent sense of “not knowing who I am.”

Reflectors need to decondition regularly through solitude, time in nature, slow cycles, and safe community. Their openness is not a weakness; it is a sensitivity that must be protected and honored. Reflectors thrive when others understand that they are here to reflect what’s true.

Reflectors in Business and Leadership
In business, Reflectors are not here to hustle or chase. They’re here to guide. Their gift is in evaluation, perspective, sensing the energy of projects, people, and potential. They may not be the ones generating consistent output—but they can see what no one else sees. They are natural curators, quality-checkers, energetic advisors, and intuitive leaders when their insights are respected.

To support a Reflector in business:

      • Invite them into decision-making spaces early and often.
        Give them time to process before expecting an answer.
        Prioritize energetic alignment over productivity.
        Recognize that their contribution may be subtle, but it is profoundly impactful.

Reflectors Are Not Broken. They Are Mirrors.
The most significant misunderstanding about Reflectors is that they “lack” definition, consistency, or identity. But the truth is that they are whole, complete, and radiant because of their openness. They are not here to be defined. They are here to reflect.

They are not the performers on the stage. They are the stage itself. The backdrop that reveals what is and what isn’t working. The echo chamber that amplifies truth and distortion alike. Their value is not in doing what others do—it’s in being who they uniquely are: fluid, cyclical, observant, and wise.

When honored for who they are, Reflectors become our energetic mirrors, our community barometers, and our lunar guides. They remind us of a deeper rhythm. A slower wisdom. A more attuned way of being. They are here to become everything—for a moment—and then release it.

To know a Reflector is to know yourself. To see one thriving is to understand that the environment is right. They are rare, luminous, and deeply necessary. 

Let us honor the Reflector. In doing so, we honor the mirror of the world.

AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT: THE HUMAN DESIGN MANIFESTING GENERATOR

Have you ever met someone who seems to radiate a unique energy? They effortlessly jump into new projects, switch tasks with ease, and quickly absorb information while juggling numerous ventures, hobbies, and social connections. If you have, you might be witnessing the remarkable capabilities of a Manifesting Generator (MG) in Human Design. It’s truly fascinating to see such dynamic individuals in action!

Manifesting Generators (MGs) account for about 30.4% of the population and embody a fascinating blend of energies. They fuse the robust, sustainable life-force of a Generator with the dynamic spark of a Manifestor, creating a powerhouse that thrives on swift action and versatile engagement. When in tune with their design, MGs navigate the world with a captivating grace, showcasing remarkable speed, skill, and dexterity—truly a mesmerizing display that feels like magic. Their unique abilities not only inspire those around them but also serve as a beautiful reminder of the extraordinary potential we all possess!

How does this intricate design translate into seemingly superhuman capabilities? Let’s explore the Manifesting Generator through the lenses of velocity, skill, apparent effortlessness, and the fine art of juggling multiple tasks.

Moving at the Speed of Light: The Efficiency Engine Unleashed

The defining feature enabling the Manifesting Generator’s characteristic speed is their unique design. MGs have both a defined Sacral Center – the body’s powerful engine of sustainable life force and work force energy, and a defined Throat Center, the hub of communication, action, and manifestation.  

This internal superhighway enables Manifesting Generators (MGs) to move with remarkable speed. Unlike Manifestors, who are designed to initiate action, MGs (similar to Pure Generators) must first wait for an external stimulus to activate their Sacral Center. This stimulus can be anything from a question, an opportunity, or an observation to something they see or hear—basically, anything outside of themselves that triggers a deep, visceral, non-verbal gut response. This response is often expressed as a clear “Uh-huh” (indicating yes) or “Un-unh” (indicating no).

Once the Sacral “Uh-huh” (yes) is activated, the motorized Throat enables the Manifesting Generator to spring into action almost instantly. This isn’t just about being fast for the sake of speed; it’s about energetic efficiency. Manifesting Generators often instinctively find the most direct route from response to completion, which can lead them to skip steps that others might consider necessary. To an observer, this behavior may appear impatient, impulsive, or even chaotic. However, for a Manifesting Generator operating in alignment, this non-linear approach is simply the most energy-conserving path their life force naturally prefers. The speed of a Manifesting Generator is a natural result of their design, functioning optimally when ignited by a genuine Sacral response.

Dexterity: The Nimble Art of the Pivot and Multi-Focus

Dexterity refers to skill and agility. For the Manifesting Generator, this means having mental, energetic, and operational flexibility. They are naturally equipped to engage with multiple stimuli and shift focus with impressive nimbleness.

Imagine a master weaver whose hands swiftly navigate the loom, manipulating numerous threads at once, or a skilled chef expertly managing multiple pans on the stove. The MG operates with similar energetic dexterity. They can be fully absorbed in one task while also responding to new stimuli—such as a call, an email, or a fresh idea inspired by their current work—and they can seamlessly shift their focus and energy to accommodate all of these demands.

This isn’t the scattered energy of someone unable to focus. When operating correctly, it’s the expression of their Sacral energy finding multiple points of engagement in the present moment. They might learn complex new software while finalizing a report, explore a passionate side hustle, or juggle demanding family responsibilities alongside intense personal development work. Their dexterity lies in this innate capacity to respond and shift fluidly without necessarily losing momentum or dropping the thread entirely, as long as the Sacral “Uh-huh” continues to fuel each active engagement. Trying to force themselves onto a single, monotonous track often leads to boredom, stagnation, frustration, and even anger.

Legerdemain: The “How Do They Do That?” The Illusion of Effortlessness

Legerdemain, literally “lightness of hand,” evokes the image of a stage magician performing complex feats with deceptive ease, making the impossible look effortless. This beautifully captures the external perception of a Manifesting Generator operating in their authentic flow. They can manage an intricate tapestry of projects, relationships, learning curves, and responsibilities in a way that often leaves others bewildered: “How do they manage it all?”

The key to this seemingly magical phenomenon is not trickery; it lies in the powerful combination of aligning with one’s Strategy and Authority. When a Manifesting Generator (MG) consistently waits to respond, honors their Sacral “yes” or “no” (and, if applicable, uses Emotional Authority to seek clarity over time), and remembers to inform those affected before they act on their response, events tend to unfold with remarkable ease and synchronicity. Obstacles may appear to disappear, the right resources emerge, collaborations fall into place, and forward momentum builds almost effortlessly.

The Art of Juggling: Master of Multiple Passions and Projects

The Manifesting Generator truly embodies the vibrant spirit of the juggler! These dynamic individuals flourish with multiple passions and delight in variety. When restricted to just one path for too long, they can feel stifled and uninspired. Instead, they thrive when juggling a variety of projects, engaging in diverse hobbies, interacting with different social groups, and embarking on exciting learning journeys. This rich engagement brings them immense joy and fulfillment, resulting in a deep sense of satisfaction—an essential sign that they are living in alignment with their true selves. Embracing their multifaceted nature truly allows them to shine!

However, just like a stage juggler, mastering this art requires skill, practice, and an understanding of the inherent dynamics:

  • Juggle Only What Ignites the Sacral Fire. The MG is not designed to juggle obligations or things they think they should. The key for them is the Sacral response. If a project, hobby, or task consistently evokes an “Un-unh” (a No) or feels heavy and draining, forcing them to keep it in the air will inevitably lead to frustration, burnout, and dropping the other balls that bring satisfaction.
  • Permission to Put Balls Down (or Throw Them Away). MGs are designed to sample life’s buffet. They might dive into something with immense enthusiasm, learn what they need, experience the initial burst of satisfaction, and then find their interest wanes. It is perfectly correct for an MG to put the metaphorical ball down, even if it’s unfinished, without guilt or self-recrimination. Clinging to depleted projects drains their vital life force.
  • The Informing Aspect is Crucial. As they add new balls to their juggling or decide to let one drop, informing the relevant people (bosses, partners, collaborators, family) is key. This isn’t a request for permission, but rather a provision of necessary information to help others adjust, manage expectations, and prevent collisions or misunderstandings. 
  • Recognizing Plateaus and Re-Engagement. MGs often experience bursts of intense energy followed by plateaus. During these plateaus, they might feel temporarily stuck. This is a natural part of their process, a time to integrate and wait for a new Sacral response to reignite their engagement, perhaps with a previously paused project.

Embracing the Manifesting Generator Flow

For the Manifesting Generator navigating this complex world, understanding and embracing your unique design is paramount. Your incredible speed, when born from response, is a gift, not a flaw. Your tendency to skip steps isn’t carelessness; it’s your inherent efficiency mechanism. Your multi-passionate nature isn’t scattered; it’s the expression of your potent life force exploring the richness of existence. Your ability to juggle numerous interests isn’t irresponsible; it’s a sign of your dynamic capacity for engagement.

It is natural to move with dazzling speed and illuminate the world with your unique brand of dynamic energy and seemingly magical ability to keep so much vibrant potential in play. You are designed for a rich, varied, and satisfying journey!

THE STALWART HEART AND HEROIC DEPENDABILITY OF THE HUMAN DESIGN GENERATOR

Senator Cory Booker

Generators: The Energetic Engine of the World
In the Human Design system, no Type is more essential to the pulse of life itself than the Generator. Making up roughly 36% of the global population, Generators are the energetic backbone of humanity—the builders, sustainers, workers, lovers, parents, and creators whose Sacral-driven consistency quite literally keeps the world turning.

But to call them “workers” is a massive oversimplification. Generators aren’t here to grind. They’re not engines of mindless output. They are here to master, to find deep satisfaction through devotion to the right work, and to experience life as a dance of response, flow, and fulfillment.
To truly understand the Generator is to understand the nature of vitality itself and how to live from a place of aligned, embodied energy.

The Powerhouse Within: The Defined Sacral Center
At the core of every Generator is the Sacral Center, a motor of life force energy that, when accessed correctly, is potent, sustainable, and self-renewing. This isn’t the willpower of the Ego or the pressure of the Root. The Sacral is primal. Creative. Sexual. Responsive. It’s the sound of the body saying “YES” to life.

But here’s the secret: this energy is only available when the Generator is doing something that they love, something that lights them up from the inside. It’s not available on demand, and it cannot be faked. The Sacral doesn’t respond to logic, obligation, or societal expectation. It responds to resonance.

That’s what makes a Generator dependable—not that they can power through anything, but that when their Sacral says “yes,” they have the capacity to go all in with joy, commitment, and integrity.

The Strategy is to Respond, not Chase.
Generators are not here to initiate. They are here to respond. This may sound passive to a world addicted to chasing goals, but it is anything but. This is about energetic congruence. It’s about letting life come to you so your body can feel what’s correct.

The response might come from hearing a question, seeing a post, watching a conversation, or feeling into a possibility. When that “uh-huh” arises from the gut, that’s when the Generator’s power activates. That is a true ‘yes.’ That’s the green light from the body, not the mind.

When a Generator responds correctly, the energy flows. The work becomes sustainable. Time expands. Mastery unfolds. They don’t burn out; they burn brighter.

However, when they initiate from the mind, saying yes out of guilt, or pushing forward on things their body has said no to, that’s when frustration builds. That’s when their natural superpower becomes distorted.

Satisfaction: The Gold Standard of Success
Every Type in Human Design has a “signature,” an energetic experience that indicates they are living in alignment with their nature. For Generators, that signature is Satisfaction. And make no mistake; it’s not mediocre contentment or lukewarm pleasure.

Satisfaction for a Generator is a full-body YES. It’s the joy of doing something you love and doing it well. It’s the afterglow of having poured your energy into something meaningful. It’s the feeling of knowing, “I was made for this.”

Satisfaction is not found in success for success’s sake; it’s found in the process, in the doing, in the deep joy of mastery.

And that’s what makes Generators magnetic and dependable: when they’re lit up by life, their energy becomes a consistent, nourishing resource for themselves and for others.

The Aura of the Generator: Open, Enveloping, Empowering
The Generator’s aura is warm, open, and enveloping. It draws people in, not because it’s demanding or forceful, but because it feels safe, stable, and life-giving. When a Generator is aligned, they become a hub; others gravitate toward them, seeking their grounded presence.

But this aura is only magnetic when the Generator is responding, not initiating. When they move with their Strategy, their aura invites the right opportunities, people, and collaborations. When they move from the mind or external pressure, their aura becomes sticky and confusing—and the frustration begins to ripple out.

Frustration: The Sacred Signal to Pause
Frustration is not a sign of failure. It’s sacred data. It’s the Sacral Center’s way of saying: “This isn’t it.” And this is one of the most potent tools a Generator has.

When a Generator feels frustrated, the work is not to push harder; it’s to pause. Breathe. Clear the noise. Wait. And listen.

Waiting doesn’t mean doing nothing. It means recalibrating and watching for what lights you up again. It’s about reclaiming your energy from the things you said yes to out of fear or conditioning—and recommitting only to what your body says yes to now.

The more a Generator learns to trust that pause, the more they realize that their frustration is a compass guiding them back to their true power.

Mastery, Not Multitasking: The True Role of the Generator
Generators are not here to do everything. They are here to master something. That “something” isn’t always obvious or glamorous—it might be parenting, cooking, healing, coding, building, or creating a business that transforms lives.

But mastery only emerges when energy is consistently applied to something the Sacral has chosen. This is not discipline in the traditional sense. It’s devotion. Generators are designed to dig deep, to refine, and to stick with what lights them up, becoming incredibly powerful at it.

In a world that celebrates being busy, Generators remind us: success is not about doing more—it’s about doing what’s right for you, over and over, with love and presence.

The True Dependability of the Generator
What makes Generators so reliable isn’t that they say yes to everything—it’s that they only say yes to what’s correct. And once they’re in, they’re all in. That’s the kind of energy people can trust. That’s the kind of consistency that moves mountains.

Whether it’s the parent who never misses a game, the friend who shows up at midnight with soup and hugs, the coach who holds space week after week, or the creative who pours their life force into their art—aligned Generators are the lifeblood of stability in an uncertain world.

If You Are a Generator: Here’s What You Must Remember

    • You’re not here to figure it out; you’re here to feel it out.
    • Your Sacral knows. Trust the “uh-huh” and honor the “uhn-uh.”
    • Frustration isn’t a failure. It’s feedback. Use it.
    • You don’t need a five-year plan; you need to keep responding.
    • Your mastery comes from aligned repetition, not external pressure.
    • You are not here to initiate; you are here to magnetize and respond.
    • When you follow your joy, your energy becomes unstoppable.

If you love a Generator, here’s how to support them:

    • Ask them yes/no questions; it helps trigger their Sacral response.
    • Give them space to respond, rather than pressuring them to make a decision.
    • Celebrate their mastery, not just their effort.
    • Don’t push them to do what doesn’t light them up; their energy won’t be there for it.
    • And always, always honor their joy. 

The Generator Legacy: Energy That Transforms the World
Generators are not the cogs in the machine. They are the machine—the living embodiment of sustainable, sacred energy when aligned. They show us what it means to be fully alive, to work with joy, to move from truth, and to commit from the body—not the mind.

When Generators trust their design, they light up everything they touch. They build worlds. They raise children. They shape companies. They create art. They embody devotion. And they do it all with a frequency of deep, soul-level satisfaction.

So if you’re a Generator, own it.

    • You are not here to prove your worth—you are the worth.
    • You are not here to find energy—you are the energy.
    • You are not here to hustle—you’re here to respond, to master, and to glow.
    • Let life come to you.

Say yes with your body, and watch as the world rearranges itself to receive your power.

THE COURAGE AND RESILIENCE OF THE HUMAN DESIGN PROJECTOR

In the diverse landscape of Human Design, Projectors stand out as natural guides and wise advisors. Projectors are designed to see and direct energy with exceptional clarity. Representing approximately 22% of the population, their path requires a reservoir of courage and resilience that is often overlooked.

Projectors are not designed to produce the constant energetic output of Generators or the impactful initiation typical of Manifestors. Their strength lies in their focused and penetrating aura, which allows them to deeply recognize, absorb, and understand others—whether that be individuals, systems, or processes. They act as systems thinkers, efficiency experts, and talent scouts in the energetic realm. Their highest potential is realized when they guide energy, rather than attempting to generate it themselves.

This unique design requires a specific operational strategy: waiting for the invitation or recognition. It is within the nuanced reality of this strategy and the life path it creates that the Projector’s quiet heroism truly shines. Let’s explore the layers of courage and resilience that define their journey.

The Courage to Wait: Trusting Stillness in a World Obsessed with Motion

Imagine living in a society that relentlessly promotes action, hustle, and self-initiative. Billboards shout phrases like “Just Do It!” while mentors advise, “Fake it ’til you make it!” The cultural narrative glorifies constant busyness. Now, picture being someone who is not naturally inclined to initiate action but instead prefers to wait. Wait for what? You wait to be truly seen and recognized for your unique insights, hoping to be formally or informally invited to engage or to provide guidance on significant life decisions, such as relationships, careers, and living situations.

This waiting is not a passive form of apathy; rather, it embodies an active, courageous readiness and profound self-trust. It takes immense courage for a Projector to:

    • Resist Societal Pressure: It is important to consciously choose not to push, force, or initiate actions when your energy isn’t aligned or recognized. This is especially crucial when feelings of fear, impatience, or external judgment arise.
    • Trust Your Inner Timing: Believe that the right opportunities will present themselves, aligning with your unique gifts and timing. Avoid the urge to scramble for any chance out of fear of missing out.
    • Hold Your Value: Projectors can maintain a sense of self-worth that is independent of constant external validation or the need to be “doing” something. This understanding stems from recognizing that your value lies in your ability to guide others.
    • Embrace Stillness: Projectors find purpose and value in periods of observation, learning, and mastering the systems they choose. It’s essential to avoid feeling inadequate for not being constantly “productive” in the traditional sense.

Attempting to act like a Manifestor or work like a Generator often results in exhaustion, burnout, and a feeling of bitterness, which is the Not-Self theme for Projectors. Projectors need to honor their need to wait and rest, as doing so is vital for their well-being and future success.

The Resilience Born from Deep Seeing: Navigating Misunderstanding and Non-Recognition

A Projector possesses a unique ability to tap into the energy of those around them, providing them with an astonishingly accurate understanding of others’ potential, weaknesses, strengths, and energetic flow. They can quickly identify the most efficient methods for managing a project, uncover hidden talents within team members, and recognize the underlying dynamics in relationships. This is where their brilliance lies.

However, this gift comes with a significant challenge. Sharing these profound insights without an invitation—simply offering unsolicited advice or pointing out flaws—often leads to:

    • The other person may not be open or ready to receive guidance, feeling intruded upon or criticized instead of helped.
    • The depth of the Projector’s insights may be overlooked, disregarded, or misunderstood.
    • Feeling ignored can be deeply invalidating and painful. Pouring energy into sharing something valuable, only to have it deflected, reinforces this feeling.

This repeated experience demands exceptional resilience. Projectors need to learn to:

    • Practice discernment in sharing insights, respecting the energetic boundary indicated by the invitation.
    • Not take rejection personally. Understand that resistance often relates to the other person’s energetic readiness, rather than reflecting on the validity of the insight or the worth of the Projector.
    • Continue to hone their gifts by observing, learning, and deepening their understanding, even during times when external validation is absent. This is essential to learning to trust the value of their perception.
    • Recover from bitterness. Use feelings of bitterness as feedback, learn from interactions where guidance wasn’t received, and adjust your approach without closing off your ability to see.

Adjusting based on what works and what does not creates a strong foundation of emotional and energetic resilience, which is essential for the Projector’s long-term well-being.

Navigating the Shadow: The Courage to Face and Transmute Bitterness

Bitterness is an unavoidable companion for Projectors on their journey of self-discovery. It represents the sour feeling that arises when their energy is misused, their insights are dismissed, or they feel fundamentally unseen and unappreciated for their unique contributions. Bitterness signals that they are out of alignment—perhaps due to pushing too hard, accepting inappropriate invitations, or not being recognized in their environment. Additionally, it often indicates that the Projector is not balancing their activities with enough rest.

It takes significant courage to:

    • Acknowledge Bitterness Openly. The Projector needs to confront this uncomfortable and harmful emotion without denial or suppression, recognizing it as a valid energetic signal.
    • Explore the Underlying Causes. It’s essential to reflect inward and comprehend why the bitterness emerged. Was it due to an unsolicited share? A coerced action? An environment that fails to acknowledge them?
    • Resist victimhood. Acknowledge the pain without being defined by it, and understand that bitterness serves as a compass pointing toward necessary change, not a life sentence.

Resilience is the result of:

    • Learning from experiences, using each pang of bitterness as a lesson in discernment, boundary-setting, and recognizing appropriate invitations.
    • Recommitting to strategy means embracing discomfort for genuine recognition and alignment.
    • Searching for environments where recognition of individual gifts is possible. Gradually moving towards people, places, and opportunities that value these specific talents.
    • Striving for success involves holding onto the vision of their signature feeling: success. This deep satisfaction comes from being recognized, valued, and knowing they have made a tangible difference through their guidance.

Moving through bitterness, rather than being consumed by it, is perhaps the Projector’s most profound act of resilience.

The Quiet Strength of Energy Management and Boundary Setting

As non-energy beings—meaning they lack a defined Sacral Center or a direct motor-to-throat connection—Projectors are highly susceptible to burnout. They intensely absorb the energy of others and can easily overextend themselves, particularly when trying to keep pace with Generators or when attempting to prove their worth through sheer effort.

This requires the courage to:

    • Prioritize rest. Protect their need for downtime and sleep fiercely, understanding that it’s not laziness but essential energetic maintenance.
    • Establish Clear Boundaries. It is important to say “no” to opportunities or requests that do not align with your values or when your energy levels are low.
    • Be selective in choosing invitations that empower you and sustain your energy, rather than those that lead to exhaustion.

Resilience in projectors is developed by understanding and consistently respecting their energetic limits. It involves the ability to recover from burnout and to implement stricter self-care practices. Projectors must recognize that their effectiveness as guides relies entirely on their own energetic well-being.

Celebrating the Projector’s Journey

The path of a projector is not about force or constant outward motion. It’s a marathon that requires perception, patience, and deep inner work. Their courage comes from a quiet trust in an unconventional strategy, their resilience helps them navigate a world that may not always recognize their value, and their strength lies in managing their unique energy and transforming bitterness into wisdom.

When a Projector is acknowledged and invited appropriately, they thrive. Their guidance can be transformative, bringing efficiency, clarity, and success to individuals, groups, and systems. Their signature feeling of success goes beyond mere personal satisfaction; it represents the culmination of a journey that demands immense resilience.

If you are a Projector, acknowledge the deep reservoirs of courage and resilience within you. Honor your need to wait, trust your unique perspective, be patient with your process, and fiercely protect your energy. Your journey demands immense strength, and your potential impact is significant.

Take a moment to truly see the Projectors in your life. Acknowledge their potential for insight and extend genuine invitations to hear their perspectives. Appreciate the quiet, enduring strength it takes for them to navigate the world and share their invaluable gifts. Their courage deserves deep respect and admiration.

THE BEAUTY AND EXCELLENCE OF THE HUMAN DESIGN MANIFESTOR

The Human Design Manifestor is a rare and powerful type, making up only about 9% of the population. Manifestors are the great initiators and trailblazers, uniquely equipped to turn their impulses into action and bring new ideas to life. Understanding a Manifestor goes beyond simply recognizing a Human Design Type; it involves appreciating a fundamental principle of creativity and energy.

The Primordial Power: Initiation from the Void

At the heart of a Manifestor’s being is a remarkable ability to initiate actions. Unlike Generators, who wait to respond, Projectors, who wait for an invitation, or Reflectors, who wait for a lunar cycle, Manifestors have an energetic configuration that connects a motor directly to the Throat center. This unique setup allows them to act on their internal urges or creative impulses without needing an external trigger. This ability is not just a whim; it is a fundamental aspect of their design. Manifestors are energetically conceived to be the spark plugs in the engine of humanity.

Consider this initiating power not only as the ability to start projects seemingly from nothing, but also as the capacity to create entirely new paradigms. The Human Design Manifestor is someone who can envision concepts that do not yet exist and possesses the inherent energy to bring them into reality. This might manifest in the following ways:

      • Launching a groundbreaking venture means identifying a unique opportunity that others may overlook and bringing it to life.
      • Voicing a radical idea involves expressing a truth or concept that challenges existing norms, sparking new conversations in the process.
      • Creating disruptive art refers to producing works that break conventions, compelling viewers to see the world from a different perspective.
      • Making a decisive move entails shifting the energy through bold, unprompted actions.

The ability to act from a place of genuine internal authority and to manifest ideas from an inner impulse is incredibly compelling. It embodies the energy of new beginnings and the raw potential of “Let there be light.” This innate capacity for independent creation is essential to excellence and plays a crucial role in collective evolution. Without Manifestors, the world would miss those essential initial pushes that disrupt inertia and create new pathways.

The Aura of Impact: A Force Field for Creation

The Manifestor aura is often described in Human Design literature as “closed” and “repelling.” While this terminology may evoke a sense of aloofness or unfriendliness, a deeper understanding of this aura’s function reveals its profound beauty and significance.

Consider the Manifestor aura not as a personal barrier but as a focused, protective energy field. Its ‘closed’ nature does not mean shutting people out; instead, it provides the Manifestor with the necessary space to express their unique impulses without interference or dilution from external energies. This aura naturally creates a buffer zone, allowing them the autonomy to initiate their actions clearly.

The term “repelling” is better understood as “impactful.” When a Manifestor directs their energy, others can feel its influence. Their presence carries significant weight, commanding attention and clearing obstacles in their path. This isn’t aggression; instead, it’s a natural outcome of having an aura designed to pave the way for action. This impact serves several purposes:

      • Announcing Presence: It signifies that a powerful individual has arrived and is making their presence known to the world.
      • Creating Space: It encourages those around them to provide the space this individual needs to operate independently.
      • Catalyzing Energy: Their very presence can inspire action, motivating others to take a stand.

Understanding the function of the aura helps us recognize its importance. It is a well-designed, energetic field that supports the Manifestor’s role in initiating actions. Learning to navigate this significant presence—both for the Manifestor and for those around them—is essential for achieving harmonious interactions.

The Strategy of Grace: To Inform as a Path to Peace

While designed for independent action, the Manifestor’s journey toward their Signature feeling of peace depends on mastering their Strategy: To Inform. This is possibly the most crucial and often the most challenging aspect of the Manifestor puzzle.

Informing is not the same as asking for permission. It does not involve seeking approval or validation. Instead, it is simply about communicating impending actions to those who will be directly affected before taking action. This seemingly simple step is critical for many reasons:

      • Mitigating Impact: Informing others about their actions can help prevent sudden disruptions. This communication removes the element of surprise that can lead to fear, suspicion, or resistance among those around them.
      • Reducing Resistance: When people are caught off guard by a Manifestor’s initiative, they may react by pushing back, trying to control, or interfering. This resistance is often the primary cause of a Manifestor’s Not-Self theme: Anger. By proactively informing others, the Manifestor can minimize this resistance.
      • Clearing the Path: By letting others know what to expect, the Manifestor effectively clears both energetic and practical obstacles. This allows people to adjust, step aside, or even offer support, leading to a smoother flow of the Manifestor’s initiatives.
      • Building Trust: Consistent communication fosters trust, helping others understand the Manifestor’s process and feel respected, even amidst the Manifestor’s inherent independence.

The beauty of the Informing Strategy lies in its elegant simplicity and profound effectiveness. It is a strategic act of consideration that paradoxically grants the Manifestor greater freedom and peace. It takes courage to resist the urgent impulse to act immediately and instead take the time to communicate. However, the rewards—such as reduced anger-inducing obstacles and increased peaceful flow—are significant. This strategy transforms raw power into practical and integrated impact.

The Quest for Peace: The Manifestor’s True North

For the Manifestor, the ultimate state of alignment is Peace. This isn’t merely a state of quiet passivity; instead, Manifestor Peace is an active state characterized by:

      • Freedom from Obstruction: The ability to initiate and act on one’s impulses without facing constant roadblocks, interference, or control from others.
      • Recognized Impact: The satisfaction that comes from seeing one’s initiatives succeed and make the intended difference.
      • Energetic Integrity: A sense of operating from one’s own authority, free from the need to compromise their creations or seek external validation before taking action. This entails letting go of the internal tension that arises when you feel thwarted or misunderstood.

On the other hand, a Manifestor’s Not-Self theme—anger—acts as a powerful internal alarm system. When a Manifestor feels anger rising—usually because they feel controlled, obstructed, interfered with, or misunderstood—it signals that they are likely out of alignment. This may happen if they forget to inform others or if they find themselves in an environment that resists their initiating nature. It’s important to recognize that this anger is not a character flaw; instead, it’s essential feedback. Its strength lies in its clarity, as it directly points to the necessity of reclaiming their autonomy. This can often be achieved by skillfully applying their Strategy to inform, which guides them back toward a sense of peace.

Their Indispensable Excellence: Why the World Needs Manifestors

In a world often comfortable with the status quo, Manifestors act as essential catalysts for change and innovation. Their strength and beauty are found not only in their power but also in their specific role within the human collective.

      • They are the Spark. They introduce new ideas into the world, initiating processes that others can respond to and build upon.
      • They are Trailblazers. They possess the courage and energetic capacity to forge paths where none existed before, challenging limitations and expanding possibilities.
      • They Embody Freedom. Their design serves as a reminder of the power of the individual and the potential that comes from acting with authentic internal authority.
      • They Drive Evolution. By disrupting stagnation and introducing novelty, they ensure that progress continues, pushing humanity forward.

Living the Manifestor Design

If you are a Manifestor reading this, embrace the greatness of your design. Trust the powerful urges that arise within you, as they are a direct connection to your purpose. Practice the art of informing others—not as a burden, but as your strategic key to finding peace and maximizing your impact. Understand that your need for autonomy is not selfish; it is essential. View your anger not as a negative trait, but as a powerful guide back to alignment. You are here to make waves, start initiatives, and leave a lasting mark.

When interacting with Manifestors, non-Manifestors need to appreciate their initiating spirit and understand their inherent need for freedom. When a Manifestor informs you of something, receive it with grace, recognizing it as a sign of respect rather than a request for your permission—unless they specifically seek your input or it is necessary.

The Human Design Manifestor is a rare and valuable force of initiation and influence. Their journey calls for understanding, self-awareness, and the courage to embrace their independence. Their true beauty lies in their raw creative potential, impactful presence, and ability to inspire change. They demonstrate their excellence every time they bravely follow their impulses, inform those who will be affected, and work to bring something new into existence. Let us recognize and celebrate these inspiring individuals who live among us.

ROMANCE IN HUMAN DESIGN

Successful romantic relationships depend on a mix of emotional, psychological, and practical factors. Here are key elements that contribute to a healthy and lasting relationship:

    • Clear, open, and honest communication is essential. Sharing feelings, needs, and concerns without fear of judgment promotes deeper understanding and strengthens connections.
    • Trust serves as the essential foundation for all relationships. Partners must feel they can depend on each other, as well as on their honesty and integrity.
    • Mutual respect enables both partners to feel valued and understood. Acknowledging each other’s boundaries, opinions, and differences cultivates a stronger, more harmonious relationship.
    • Both partners need to be genuinely committed to creating something meaningful together. An emotional connection is essential, and neither partner should be burdened by issues like addiction or self-sabotage that can hinder closeness.
    • Each person should embody the qualities that the other seeks. While romance and chemistry are important, sharing similar life goals is equally important. For instance, if one partner wants children and the other does not, the relationship may experience increasing tension over time.
    • Life can present us with challenges, such as caring for a loved one, managing school demands, or dealing with loss. During these times, even the strongest relationships may be tested, and love alone may not suffice to get us through.
    • A spark is just the beginning—lasting love is built on skill. Nurture your relationship by sharing meaningful moments, communicating openly, respecting each other’s need for space, and supporting each other’s growth. These habits sow the seeds of enduring joy.
    • Emotional closeness and that unmistakable spark bring life to a relationship. True compatibility is the essential ingredient, often making the difference between fleeting romance and a lasting love.

PROJECTORS WITH THE OTHER TYPES

Projector with a Generator

Quick overview of what a Generator-Projector romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Respect each other’s energy: The Generator has sustainable energy, and the Projector has a greater need for rest.
    • Recognize that both partners have different strategies for processing and acting.
    • The Generator should provide clear invitations for the Projector’s guidance, and the Projector should wait for those invitations to give their wisdom.
    • The Generator acts and responds while the Projector offers insights and guidance. Each understands the value of the other’s approach.

The Breakout:

Generators are Sacral beings. They have consistent, sustainable energy designed to respond to life, people, and opportunities. Projectors are non-energy beings, meaning they don’t have a consistent source of life force energy. Instead, they are designed to guide and direct the energy of others. Projectors do best when invited to share their insights rather than imposing themselves on situations. The Generator can thrive in this partnership by responding to the Projector’s needs or suggestions. The Projector, in turn, can feel valued when invited to share their wisdom and is not pressured to initiate or expend energy unnecessarily.

Generators often act quickly once they’ve responded to something that excites them, while Projectors may require more time to process. The Generator should practice patience, giving the Projector time to process the information. The Projector should respect the Generator’s need to act when something feels aligned.

Generators have a strong inner “gut” response (the Sacral response) to decisions and are designed to trust their body’s cues. They thrive when they are responding to opportunities, people, or situations, rather than initiating them. Projectors, on the other hand, are designed to be excellent at seeing the bigger picture. They can offer strategic guidance and direction. The Projector can provide valuable insights and suggestions based on their perspective, while the Generator should trust their inner Sacral response before taking action.

Generators have consistent energy that can feel overwhelming or intense to a Projector. Projectors can become drained if they don’t have time to rest or are constantly surrounded by the Generator’s energy.  Projectors need frequent rest as they do not have a consistent energy source. If they push themselves too hard or feel unrecognized, they can burn out quickly. Generators have sustainable energy, but they should support the Projector’s need for downtime and not inadvertently demand too much of their energy.

Generators are incredible doers—they have the energy to get things done and work tirelessly when they’re aligned with what they love. They thrive when they are doing work that excites them. Projectors are wise and insightful, but need recognition to share their wisdom. Their strength lies in guiding, directing, and offering clarity to others. However, when a Projector is engaged with their right work, they are also energized.

A Generator should admire and respect the Projector’s ability to see the bigger picture and offer direction. The Projector should recognize the Generator’s energy and ability to bring ideas to life. This creates a partnership where both parties feel valued for their contributions.

Misunderstandings can arise if the Projector feels left out of decisions or the Generator feels frustrated because they cannot take immediate action. The Generator should communicate this, and the Projector should be open about when they need space to process. Both should feel comfortable discussing their needs without fear of judgment.

Projectors thrive in an environment where they feel invited, valued, and recognized. Generators thrive when they can engage with what excites them and feel they are contributing. The Generator can create a positive, engaging environment where the Projector feels appreciated and recognized. The Projector should encourage the Generator to respond to what excites them.

Projector with a Manifesting Generator

Quick overview of what a Projector-Manifesting Generator (MG) romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Understand and respect their energy dynamics: The MG is fast-moving and action-oriented, while the Projector needs time to observe and rest.
    • The MG should be mindful of inviting the Projector’s insights.
    • Both should openly discuss their needs, energy levels, and pacing to avoid misunderstandings.
    • Honor the complementary roles: The MG can act and manifest things into reality, while the Projector can provide strategic guidance and direction.

The Breakout:

Manifesting Generators (MGs)are a hybrid of Generators and Manifestors. They possess the consistent Sacral energy of a Generator and the ability to initiate, similar to a Manifestor. They are fast-moving, multi-tasking, and can get excited quickly about new opportunities. MGs thrive when they respond to life and initiate with their energy.

Projectors are non-energy beings who do not have access to consistent energy. They are designed to guide and direct others but require recognition to thrive. They don’t initiate action and excel at seeing the bigger picture and offering wisdom when invited.

The Manifesting Generator must understand that the Projector does not have the same amount of energy to keep pace with them. The Projector, on the other hand, must be patient with the MG’s rapid pace and recognize that they need space to respond to things before acting. The Projector should honor the MG’s need for action, and the MG should honor the Projector’s need for rest and recognition.

Projectors are designed to wait for recognition or invitations before they offer guidance and wisdom. If a Projector isn’t recognized or invited into a conversation, they can feel unseen. Manifesting Generators, while able to initiate like a Manifestor, still need to respond to their Sacral gut feelings first. They can often move quickly without waiting for a “formal invitation,” which can unintentionally bypass the Projector’s need for recognition.

The Manifesting Generator should be mindful of giving the Projector time and space to offer their guidance. They should make a conscious effort to invite the Projector’s insights when it feels right, and the Projector should feel empowered to wait for those invitations. This helps create a balance where both partners feel valued for their unique contributions.

Manifesting Generators are fast-moving and tend to get excited about multiple things simultaneously. They have energy to burn and can quickly shift gears when something new gets their attention. Projectors are more methodical and observant. They don’t have the same kind of energy to keep up with the MG’s rapid pace and need more time to process and reflect before offering advice or making decisions.

The Manifesting Generator needs to practice patience and be mindful that the Projector operates at a slower, more measured pace. Projectors might feel overwhelmed if the MG moves too quickly or expects them to keep up with it. On the other hand, the Projector can offer valuable insights into timing and strategy, helping the MG channel their energy more efficiently and effectively.

Manifesting Generators excel at acting, multitasking, and building things quickly when they respond to the right opportunities. They bring energy, creativity, and enthusiasm to the partnership. Projectors are deeply insightful, strategic, and excellent at seeing things from a broader perspective. They are natural guides and mentors.

The Manifesting Generator should value the Projector’s wisdom, insight, and guidance, recognizing that the Projector sees things the MG might miss due to their fast-moving nature. The Projector should appreciate the MG’s energy and ability to manifest ideas into action quickly. This mutual respect fosters a complementary dynamic. The MG’s high energy levels can be exhausting for the Projector if the MG is constantly moving or initiating things without pausing to consider the consequences. Projectors need significant rest and time alone to recharge, and they can become drained or burnt out if they don’t get enough downtime.

The Manifesting Generator should give the Projector space for rest and recharging. The Projector should not feel pressured to keep up with the MG’s pace and should be encouraged to take breaks when needed. Meanwhile, the MG can learn to slow down and be present when necessary.

Projectors have profound wisdom and insight, but they are not here to do the work themselves; they’re here to guide others. For a Projector to feel fulfilled, they need to be invited to share their wisdom and recognized for their value.

Manifesting Generators thrive when they are in motion, initiating new projects or ideas. The Projector can offer valuable guidance to help the MG refine and improve their work. The MG should actively seek out the Projector’s guidance, recognizing that the Projector’s insights can help the MG focus their energy and ensure their actions are aligned with their purpose.

Manifesting Generators can feel frustrated if they cannot act quickly or are slowed down by the Projector’s slower pace. Projectors can feel frustrated if their insights are not invited or respected, or if the MG moves too fast without considering their guidance. Both partners must have patience and trust in each other’s process.

Projector with a Manifestor

Quick overview of what a Projector-Manifestor romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Respect independence and freedom: The Manifestor needs space to act independently, while the Projector needs recognition and invitations to offer guidance.
    • Communicate clearly and openly: The Manifestor should inform the Projector about their plans.
    • Balance action and rest: The Manifestor should understand the Projector’s need for rest and space, while the Projector should respect the Manifestor’s drive for action.
    • Appreciate each other’s complementary strengths: The Manifestor brings momentum and initiation, while the Projector provides guidance and insight.

The Breakout:

Manifestors are initiators. They can act independently and create momentum without waiting for external cues. They are here to make things happen. Projectors are guides. They are here to observe, offer wisdom, and direct the energy of others. However, they are not here to initiate or take action themselves—they need to be invited to share their insights and guidance.

The Manifestor should understand that the Projector is not designed to initiate and does not have the energy to keep up with their fast pace. The Projector, on the other hand, should recognize that the Manifestor is not waiting to be invited to act.

Manifestors are inherently independent and prefer to act on their own without needing permission. They do not wait to respond; their inner guidance drives them. Projectors need recognition to thrive, but they should not try to control or direct the Manifestor’s energy. Projectors may feel the urge to guide the Manifestor, but this can backfire if the Manifestor feels pressured or restricted.

The Projector must respect the Manifestor’s need for autonomy and freedom. The Manifestor should keep the Projector informed about what they’re doing and where they’re heading, allowing the Projector to offer guidance when invited but not controlling their actions.

While the Manifestor does not need to ask for permission to act, Projectors need clear communication as they rely on understanding the bigger picture and offering their insights. They may feel disconnected if the Manifestor doesn’t share enough about their actions or plans. This communication fosters a sense of inclusion and mutual respect between the parties.

The Manifestor should make an effort to recognize the Projector’s insights. The Projector, in turn, should feel comfortable telling the Manifestor when they feel unheard or need more recognition. Both partners should work on creating a dynamic where the Projector feels invited to contribute their wisdom.

Manifestors move quickly and may not fully understand the Projector’s need for rest and relaxation. The Manifestor’s constant drive for action can sometimes overwhelm the Projector. The Manifestor should be mindful of the Projector’s need for rest and allow space for them to recharge. The Projector should be open about their need for time alone and not feel guilty about taking that space.

Manifestors bring action, initiation, and momentum to the relationship. They are here to break new ground and set things in motion, and they thrive when they have the freedom to act on their impulses.

Projectors bring insight, wisdom, and strategic guidance. They are here to offer advice from a higher perspective and provide direction when invited. Their strength lies in their ability to guide others effectively.

The Manifestor can rely on the Projector to offer insights and wisdom to help refine their actions and make their decisions more strategic. The Projector can appreciate the Manifestor’s ability to take action and bring ideas to life. The Manifestor can learn to trust the Projector’s guidance and give them the space to offer their insights.

Manifestors thrive on independence and can sometimes isolate themselves because of their desire to work alone. They are not here to follow others; they are here to lead. Projectors are naturally more interdependent. They thrive when they are recognized and allowed to guide others. They can feel isolated or undervalued if they lack a sense of mutual connection.

The Manifestor should honor the Projector’s need for connection and recognition. The Projector should also appreciate that the Manifestor may need time and space to act independently. There is a balance to be found in giving the other space for independence and coming together to offer support and guidance when necessary.

Both partners need to practice patience and understanding. The Manifestor should be mindful not to act impulsively in ways that may overwhelm or shut out the Projector, and the Projector should avoid trying to control the Manifestor’s actions. Open and respectful communication can prevent misunderstandings.

Projector with a Reflector

Quick overview of what a Projector-Reflector romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Understand each other’s sensitivity: The Reflector needs a calm, nurturing environment, and the Projector needs recognition for their wisdom.
    • Allow space for reflection and decision-making: The Reflector needs time to process and make decisions, and the Projector should avoid pushing or rushing them.
    • An emotionally supportive environment: Both parties should prioritize clarity, calmness, mutual respect for each other’s emotional needs, and clear boundaries.
    • Recognize each other’s strengths: The Projector offers insight and guidance, and the Reflector reflects the world around them.

The Breakout:

Reflectors are incredibly sensitive to the energy around them. Their energy fluctuates in response to the environment, the people they interact with, and their circumstances. They are highly empathic and absorb energy from the world around them; this means they are deeply affected by their environment. Projectors also have an openness to external energy, but are less fluid in their energy compared to Reflectors. Projectors are sensitive to the energy of others when they are in the presence of people who recognize or invite them, but are not necessarily as intensely affected by external energy as Reflectors.

The Reflector needs a harmonious and supportive environment to thrive. The Projector should strive to create a calm and nurturing space for the Reflector, enabling them to feel safe and supported. Both partners should avoid chaotic or overly stimulating environments that could drain the Reflector.

Reflectors go through 28-day emotional cycles. Their emotional state changes with the Moon. This can lead to times of deep introspection or emotional fluctuation, which can be hard to navigate. Projectors do not have consistent energy but are deeply attuned to the energy and rhythms of others. However, Projectors don’t experience the same emotional fluctuations as Reflectors, and they may find it difficult to understand or relate to the Reflector’s changing moods.

The Projector should be patient and non-judgmental about the Reflector’s emotional shifts. The Projector must avoid trying to “fix” the Reflector’s emotional changes, but instead offer support when invited. The Reflector, in turn, should communicate their emotional needs and understand that their fluctuations are part of their design.

Reflectors take time to process and reflect on what is happening around them. They are not designed to act impulsively, and they need a lot of time to observe situations before making decisions. Reflectors may also feel overwhelmed by too much external input. Projectors also need space to process and reflect before offering guidance or making decisions. Projectors require recognition to feel validated, and their insight sharpens when they have time to observe rather than react.

Both partners should honor the need for reflection and quiet time. The Projector can give the Reflector space to process. In turn, the Reflector should understand that the Projector thrives when invited to share their wisdom, rather than being pushed into action or decision-making.

The Projector should allow the Reflector plenty of time and space to make decisions without rushing them. The Reflector should also communicate when they need time to make a decision. The Projector can offer gentle guidance when invited, but should not pressure the Reflector to act prematurely.

Reflectors reflect the energy of the space they inhabit. If they are surrounded by negativity or chaos, they will absorb and reflect that. Projectors are sensitive to energy as well, but they are more attuned to recognizing others and guiding them. They need to feel acknowledged and invited to share their wisdom, but they are less directly affected by the environment than Reflectors.

The Projector should help create a calm, supportive, and nurturing environment where the Reflector feels safe and free to express themselves. The Reflector needs time to make a balanced and peaceful space for themselves. Spending time in nature or peaceful settings is recommended.

Projectors need to feel recognized and invited to offer their wisdom. They are not designed to initiate action but to guide others after being acknowledged. Without recognition, they can feel undervalued and drained. Reflectors also need to feel recognized for who they are. However, their need for recognition is less about imparting wisdom and more about being acknowledged for their sensitivity and unique role as mirrors in the world.

The Projector should recognize the Reflector for their unique sensitivity and ability to mirror energy. The Reflector should feel supported by the Projector’s insights and gentle guidance. Both partners need to ensure that they are actively recognizing each other’s unique gifts.

The Projector should trust that the Reflector will find their clarity when the time is right, and the Reflector should trust that the Projector’s guidance is valuable when invited. Both partners must appreciate their different decision-making rhythms and timelines.

Projector with a Projector

Quick overview of what a Projector-Projector romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Recognize each other regularly.
    • Set clear boundaries and communicate openly about needs for rest and personal time.
    • Create a harmonious and nurturing environment that supports the energy and emotional needs of both partners.
    • Invite and guide without overstepping.
    • Celebrate each other’s successes and support one another in achieving personal and shared goals.

The Breakout:

Projectors are designed to guide others, but they need recognition to feel valued and acknowledged. Without recognition or an invitation, they may feel unseen, unheard, or even depleted. In a Projector-Projector relationship, both partners will benefit by giving each other the space to be recognized for their wisdom and insights. They should actively offer each other invitations and acknowledge each other in their decision-making and daily interactions.

Both Projectors should ensure they are actively recognizing each other’s insights, guidance, and contributions. This recognition can manifest through verbal acknowledgment, invitations to share wisdom, or creating space for each other to guide one another within the relationship.

Projectors have limited and non-sustainable energy. This means they need plenty of rest, downtime, and space to recharge to avoid burnout. Two Projectors in a relationship might find that they both require more alone time or moments of quiet contemplation than what is typically expected in a relationship. Without regular rest, they can both feel overwhelmed or emotionally drained.

Both partners should be mindful of each other’s need for rest and downtime. This could involve setting aside time for individual activities or quiet moments apart from each other, allowing both partners to recharge their energy and understanding that the need for space is not a negative reflection of the relationship but a necessity for self-care.

Both partners need to communicate openly about when they need space, rest, or alone time, and they should be willing to ask for recognition or invitations when they feel the other is not acknowledging their guidance. A healthy relationship will have clear and respectful boundaries regarding each other’s emotional needs and expectations.

Projectors can experience frustration when they are not recognized or invited to share their wisdom. Both may feel like they are waiting for the other to “see” them or for an invitation to share their insights. This frustration can manifest as feelings of invisibility, disconnection, or even resentment if one or both partners feel ignored or unacknowledged.

Both partners must practice patience with each other and understand that their role in the relationship is not to push or force things, but to guide when invited. Cultivating a shared understanding of the importance of recognition and invitations will help minimize frustration.

Creating a balanced and peaceful home environment is essential for both Projectors to thrive. A harmonious space where both individuals feel comfortable and safe will support their mental, emotional, and energetic health. This could mean spending time in nature, having quiet evenings, or cultivating a space that feels calm and recharging. Both partners should take responsibility for managing their environment in a way that nurtures their energy.

Both partners should practice regularly acknowledging each other’s strengths and wisdom. This can be done through verbal praise, affirmations, and allowing each partner to share their insights or observations. Regularly reinforcing recognition helps both Projectors feel valued and validated.

Projectors are here to guide others to success, but they require invitations and recognition to feel aligned with their purpose. If both partners are Projectors, they must ensure that they are actively supporting each other’s professional and personal endeavors. A Projector-Projector relationship can thrive when both partners recognize each other’s unique contributions and offer invitations for each other to step into leadership, success, or their true potential.

Both partners should celebrate and support each other’s successes, whether personal or professional. This includes offering invitations for growth and opportunities to share their wisdom with others. By actively encouraging each other’s success, both Projectors can thrive in a supportive and growth-oriented environment.

GENERATORS WITH THE OTHER TYPES

Generator with a Manifesting Generator

Quick overview of what a Generator-Manifesting Generator romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Respect their natural rhythms (Generator = steady focus, MG = quick shifts).
    • Support each other’s decision-making pace (Generator = needs time, MG = moves fast but might backtrack).
    • Communicate openly about needs and frustrations to avoid misunderstandings.
    • Strike a balance between stability and spontaneity to keep the relationship exciting yet not chaotic.
    • Honor their Sacral responses by only saying “yes” to what truly excites them.

The Breakout:

Both Generators and Manifesting Generators are designed to respond to life rather than initiate action. They have sustainable energy, which is meant to be used in alignment with what excites and inspires them. Since they both have defined Sacral Centers, they thrive when they engage in activities and relationships that genuinely fulfill them.

Generators are designed to focus intensely on a process and master it over time. They have a steady, persistent energy and enjoy engaging in things fully before moving on to the next.  Manifesting Generators (MGs), on the other hand, move quickly and often juggle multiple interests at once. They have a mix of Generator (sustainable energy) and Manifestor (initiation) qualities, which can make them more impatient and prone to skipping steps.

Both partners should ensure that they are making decisions based on their Sacral response (a gut “yes” or “no”) rather than logic or external pressures. Both partners are designed to work and create in a way that is fulfilling for them.

Generators may prefer structured, long-term engagement in a craft or career, while Manifesting Generators tend to experiment with multiple things and shift gears frequently. The Generator should not feel abandoned or confused when the MG changes directions, and the MG should respect the Generator’s need for deep engagement with a singular passion. Supporting each other’s unique work rhythms will help prevent misunderstandings and ensure a more effective collaboration.

Manifesting Generators may move so fast that they forget to communicate their decisions, leading the Generator to feel left out or unacknowledged. The MG should slow down and ensure they are keeping their Generator partner informed. Open communication about each other’s needs will create harmony.

The signature emotional theme of both types is frustration, which arises when they are not engaging with life in a way that feels satisfying. Generators may become frustrated with the MG’s impulsiveness or changes in direction. Manifesting Generators may become frustrated when the Generator appears to be “slow” or overly methodical.

The Generator should not take it personally if the MG moves on from an activity quickly. Likewise, the MG should respect the Generator’s desire to stay engaged in something for an extended period. Both Generators and MGs are meant to enjoy life and follow what pleases them.

MGs can bring spontaneity and excitement, while Generators bring depth and dedication, stability, patience, and mastery. Finding shared activities that bring joy to both partners will strengthen their bond. They should engage in hobbies, adventures, or creative projects that energize them.

Generator with a Manifestor

Quick overview of what a Generator-Manifestor romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Respect each other’s energy levels (Generator = steady, Manifestor = bursts).
    • Communicate openly and clearly (Manifestor should inform, Generator should ask to be informed).
    • Avoid trying to control each other and allow freedom within the relationship.
    • Support each other’s natural strengths: the Manifestor initiates, and the Generator responds.

The Breakout:

Generators are designed to respond to life with their sustainable Sacral energy. They thrive on engaging deeply with activities that excite them. Manifestors are designed to initiate, but they often lack consistent energy. They move in bursts and need rest between periods of action. The Generator should respect the Manifestor’s need for autonomy.

Manifestors dislike being controlled or having others tell them what to do. They are independent and prefer to follow their own impulses. The Generator should not try to control or manage the Manifestor’s actions. Instead, they should give them space to move freely while focusing on their own joy.

Generators need to feel deeply engaged in what they are doing, whether in work, relationships, or hobbies. If a Manifestor is too withdrawn or moves too quickly without including the Generator, the Generator may feel frustrated or disconnected. The Manifestor should inform the Generator about their plans and actions to help them feel included and engaged.

Generators can become frustrated when they are not engaged in things that genuinely excite them. Manifestors can become angry when they feel controlled or blocked from acting on their impulses. The Generator should engage in activities that bring them joy, and the Manifestor should move freely without feeling restricted.

Generators have a steady, sustainable energy flow and love working on things over time. Manifestors experience energy in bursts and need rest between periods of activity. The Generator should not expect the Manifestor to keep up with their sustained energy levels, and the Manifestor should not feel guilty for needing downtime. Both partners should respect each other’s natural rhythms.

Manifestors need more rest because their energy operates in bursts. Generators replenish their energy by engaging in work or activities that they love. The Generator should allow the Manifestor to take breaks without interpreting it as a sign of disinterest. The Manifestor should respect the Generator’s need to stay engaged in something meaningful.

Manifestors are visionaries and initiators, but they often lack the sustainable energy to see projects through to completion. Generators thrive when responding to something meaningful and have the energy to sustain long-term efforts. The Manifestor can initiate ideas, and the Generator can help bring them to life with their steady energy. This makes them a powerful team when working together.

Generator with a Reflector

Quick overview of what a Generator-Reflector romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Generators provide stability, energy, and enthusiasm.
    • Reflectors bring wisdom, adaptability, and fresh perspectives.
    • Patience, communication, and mutual respect are essential.
    • The Generator offers grounding, and the Reflector offers fluidity, creating a beautiful balance.

Generators have a defined Sacral Center, which provides them with sustainable energy and a desire to engage in activities that bring them joy. Reflectors have no defined centers, meaning they take in and amplify the energy around them. They experience life in a deeply fluid and changeable way. The Generator should understand that the Reflector’s energy is inconsistent and varies based on their environment and the people they’re around. The Reflector should allow the Generator to engage fully in their passions without feeling pressured to keep up.

Reflectors are highly sensitive to their surroundings and the energy of those around them. A hostile or chaotic environment can have a profoundly detrimental impact on their well-being. Generators can provide a steady and reliable energy source, creating a sense of stability for the Reflector. The Generator should help create a calm, nurturing, and positive space where the Reflector can feel safe. The Reflector should communicate when they need alone time or a change in their environment.

Reflectors are designed to wait an entire lunar cycle (about 28 days) before making significant decisions; their clarity comes over time. Reflectors mirror the energy of their environment, including the people around them. This means they will feel differently depending on external influences. Generators are more stable and predictable. The Generator should embrace the Reflector’s changeable nature. The Reflector should appreciate the Generator’s steadiness.  

Generators bring consistency, energy, and focus. Reflectors bring profound wisdom, insight, and a unique perspective on life. The Generator should value the Reflector’s ability to see things from multiple angles and appreciate their valuable insights. The Reflector should appreciate the Generator’s ability to sustain energy, their ability to bring ideas to life, and the consistency they provide. The Generator should allow the Reflector space to shift and evolve. The Reflector should support the Generator’s desire for focus and stability.

Generator with a Reflector

Quick overview of what a Generator-Reflector romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Follow the Sacral response—let life unfold naturally rather than forcing things.
    • Encourage each other’s passions—doing what you love keeps the relationship energized.
    • Communicate through yes/no questions to activate clarity.
    • Honor each other’s energy cycles—avoid burnout and allow for rest.
    • Recognize and navigate frustration—redirect energy into something fulfilling when frustration arises.

The Breakout:

Both partners have a defined Sacral Center, which provides them with sustainable life-force energy. Both Generators should honor their Sacral response and avoid making decisions from the mind. They should ask each other yes/no questions to activate their Sacral guidance; e.g., “Do you feel like going to this event?” instead of asking an open-ended question like, “What do you want to do?”

Since Generators are designed to respond, neither should force or push each other’s decisions. The biggest challenge for Generators is frustration, which arises when they are not engaged in what truly excites them. If both partners are feeling frustrated, it can create stagnation or resentment between them. If frustration arises, both partners should take time out to do what lights them up individually before coming back together. Supporting each other’s passions will keep the relationship energized and happy.

Generators thrive when they engage in activities they love. If both partners are pursuing work, hobbies, or interests that drain them, the relationship can lose its vitality. Encourage one another to stay connected to work, activities, and relationships that bring satisfaction. Find shared activities that light both of you up—whether it’s travel, fitness, creativity, or personal growth.

While Generators love shared experiences, they also need space to focus on their personal satisfaction. If one Generator is in a state of deep engagement and flow, the other should not take it personally. Support each other in pursuing individual passions without feeling the need always to be involved in the same things.

Generators have consistent energy but can also burn out if they don’t listen to their Sacral wisdom. If one partner is energized and the other is tired, there should be no pressure to match each other’s energy. Honor natural energy fluctuations—if one needs to rest, the other should respect their need to recharge without guilt.

If both Generators get stuck in routines that are not fulfilling, the relationship can feel stagnant. They must be mindful not to stay in situations that no longer bring joy just because of familiarity. Keep evolving together—whether through shared adventures, learning new things, or supporting each other’s growth. If something feels off, check in with the Sacral response rather than staying in the relationship out of habit.

Since Generators operate best through response, all major relationship decisions should be made by responding with their Sacral. If one or both partners override their Sacral, it can lead to frustration or misalignment. Before making significant commitments (such as moving in together or getting married), both individuals should check in with their Sacral response and wait for clarity before making a decision.

MANIFESTING GENERATORS WITH THE OTHER TYPES

Manifesting Generator with a Manifestor

Quick overview of what a Manifesting Generator (MG)-Manifestor romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Respect different energy rhythms—MGs are consistent, while Manifestors work in bursts.
    • Allow freedom—MGs should not try to control the Manifestor, and Manifestors should inform the MG.
    • Navigate frustration and anger wisely—don’t take emotional reactions personally.
    • Use strengths effectively—the Manifestor initiates, and the MG executes.
      Communicate openly—especially about plans, rest needs, and emotional states.

The Breakout:

Manifesting Generators (MGs) have sustainable Sacral energy and are designed to respond before taking action. They move fast, multitask, and love efficiency. Manifestors have no Sacral energy and operate in bursts of inspiration. They are designed to initiate but need rest between action phases. The MG should recognize that the Manifestor’s energy fluctuates. The Manifestor should respect the MG’s need to respond before they act.

Manifestors dislike being controlled or having others tell them what to do. MGs love to move quickly but may sometimes try to involve the Manifestor in their fast-paced world. The MG should not try to manage, guide, or control the Manifestor. The Manifestor should inform the MG of their plans so the MG feels included rather than left out.

MGs make decisions through their Sacral response. Manifestors make decisions based on their inner authority. The Manifestor should allow the MG time to check in with their Sacral before making big decisions together. The MG should trust the Manifestor’s need to follow their impulses.

MGs require excitement, variety, and the opportunity to experiment. Manifestors require the freedom to initiate and terminate projects as they wish. Both partners should support each other’s personal growth and interests without forcing the other to move at the same pace.

MGs are efficient builders and doers who thrive when responding to exciting opportunities. Manifestors are visionary initiators who start things but may not have the energy to sustain them. The Manifestor can initiate ideas, and the MG can execute them efficiently. Together, they can be an unstoppable team when they respect their natural strengths.

Manifesting Generator with a Reflector

Quick overview of what a Manifesting Generator (MG)-Reflector romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Respect different energy levels—MGs are fast-paced; Reflectors are fluid.
    • The Reflector needs a stable and consistent environment.
    • Honor different decision-making styles—MGs decide quickly; Reflectors need time.
    • Balance speed and stillness—MGs must slow down at times; Reflectors must embrace movement.
    • Communicate openly—especially about frustration, disappointment, and social needs.

The Breakout:

Manifesting Generators (MGs) have a defined Sacral Center, meaning they have consistent, fast-moving energy. They also love efficiency. Reflectors have no defined centers, meaning they absorb and amplify the energy around them. They mirror the energetic condition of the environment and the people around them. The MG should recognize that the Reflector’s energy is fluid and not expect them to keep up with their fast pace. The Reflector should embrace the MG’s lively energy while honoring their own need for rest and consistency.

Reflectors are highly sensitive to their surroundings, and their well-being is deeply tied to the energy they experience. MGs are energetic and can sometimes be chaotic or impatient when things don’t move quickly. The MG should help create a stable, uplifting, and nurturing environment for the Reflector. The Reflector should communicate when they feel overwhelmed or need space to reset.

MGs make decisions through their Sacral response, which is fast and instinctual. Reflectors need a full lunar cycle (about 28 days) to make significant decisions, as they process experiences through different energies over time. The MG should not rush the Reflector into quick decisions—patience is key. The Reflector should take their time to find clarity and share their evolving perspective with the MG.

Reflectors change in response to their environment and the people with whom they interact. MGs move quickly, multitask, and thrive on variety, but still have a consistent sense of self. The MG should accept the Reflector’s ever-changing nature rather than expect consistency. The Reflector should find grounding in the MG’s stable energy.

MGs experience frustration when they feel stuck or inefficient. Reflectors experience disappointment when life doesn’t meet their expectations. The MG should recognize when frustration arises and redirect their energy into something that excites them. The Reflector should take responsibility for creating an environment that is soothing for them.

MGs love to move fast, skip steps, and experiment. Reflectors need time to process. The MG should slow down and respect the Reflector’s need for deep contemplation. The Reflector should be open to the MG’s natural momentum, allowing themselves to enjoy life without feeling rushed.

MGs are influential doers and creators, bringing energy and enthusiasm to everything they do. Reflectors are wise observers, offering a unique and valuable perspective on life and relationships. The MG should trust the Reflector’s wisdom and seek their insights before rushing into decisions. The Reflector should appreciate the MG’s ability to take action, helping to bring their shared dreams into reality.

MGs tend to be social, active, and constantly engaged in new experiences. Reflectors may need alone time to release energy they’ve absorbed from others. The MG should respect the Reflector’s need for solitude without taking it personally. This relationship works best when both partners honor their differences instead of trying to change each other. The MG should trust the Reflector’s more deliberate process. The Reflector should embrace the MG’s zest for life and enjoy their shared journey.

Manifesting Generator with a Manifesting Generator

Quick overview of what a Manifesting Generator-Manifesting Generator romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Embrace each other’s speed and spontaneity—support each other’s new interests and ideas.
    • Give each other freedom—avoid controlling or restricting each other.
    • Communicate clearly and often—don’t assume the other person just “gets it.”
    • Manage frustration together—use it as a signal to pivot, not as an excuse to blame.
    • Keep things fun and exciting—avoid monotony and introduce new experiences to keep things fresh.

The Breakout:

Manifesting Generators are independent by nature and dislike feeling trapped. They need space to pursue their passions and explore what excites them. Accept that both partners may frequently change their interests, careers, or goals.  

Avoid over-attachment or controlling behaviors—both partners need freedom. Support each other’s personal projects and interests rather than expecting complete alignment.

Since both MGs move quickly, they might assume the other person already knows what they’re thinking or feeling. This can lead to misunderstandings or a lack of deep emotional connection if not addressed. Check in with each other often, even if it feels like you’re already aligned. Express emotions clearly instead of assuming the other person will figure them out.

Frustration is the signature emotion of an MG when things don’t flow smoothly. If both partners feel stuck, they may become restless, impatient, or irritated with each other. Recognize frustration as a sign to pivot and try something new rather than blame each other. If one partner is feeling stuck, give them space rather than pushing them forward.

MGs love learning, evolving, and mastering new skills—they don’t like stagnation. In a relationship, both partners must be open to supporting each other’s personal growth and transformation. Celebrate each other’s new interests rather than feeling threatened by them. Be flexible—what worked in the relationship a year ago may need to evolve now.

MGs thrive on variety and new experiences—they can get bored if things feel repetitive. A relationship that becomes too predictable may feel draining for both partners. Introduce fun challenges, trips, and new activities to keep the relationship fresh and exciting. Allow room for spontaneity and surprises rather than sticking to routines.

Since both MGs are ambitious and energetic, they may subconsciously compete with each other. This can create tension if one partner feels like they need to “keep up” or “outperform” the other. Shift from competition to collaboration—celebrate each other’s successes. Remember that you’re on the same team, not racing against each other.

Reflector with a Reflector

Quick overview of what a Reflector-Reflector romantic partnership needs to be successful:

    • Honor each other’s rhythms and natural cycles.
    • Honor each other’s shared sensitivity.
    • Respect each other’s decision-making process.
    • Co-create a peaceful, nurturing environment.
    • Embrace the fluidity and non-linear nature of their connection.
    • Encourage each other’s involvement with uplifting communities and positive organizations.

The Breakout:

“Getting” Each Other: Who better understands the experience of being a Reflector than another Reflector? They intrinsically grasp the need for time (lunar cycle), the sensitivity to environments, the feeling of fluidity or invisibility, and the experience of sampling and reflecting energy. This reduces the need for constant explanation and fosters deep acceptance. Both partners understand the vulnerability inherent in having all centers open. This shared understanding can create a safe space where both feel seen and validated in their unique energetic makeup.

Both partners operate according to a strategy of waiting a full lunar cycle (approximately 28 days) for clarity on significant decisions. This shared rhythm alleviates the pressure one might feel from a partner with defined centers who processes things more quickly or linearly. They can naturally allow space and time for clarity to emerge for both individuals without impatience.

They understand that energy, mood, and even identity can feel fluid and change in response to transits and environmental influences. They are less likely to demand rigid consistency from each other, allowing for a more natural, flowing dynamic.

Since Reflectors absorb and reflect their surroundings, their home and social environment have a direct impact on their well-being. A successful partnership prioritizes creating a peaceful, nurturing, and inspiring space that supports their energetic needs.

Reflectors thrive when they have freedom to flow and experience life without rigid expectations. A healthy relationship allows both partners to explore their individuality, engage with diverse communities, and reconnect with each other without pressure or constraint.

One of the gifts of the Reflector is their ability to experience life as an unfolding mystery. A fulfilling relationship embraces the unexpected, allowing for spontaneity, deep conversations, and shared moments of awe without forcing a specific outcome.

Since Reflectors are deeply connected to their communities, their happiness depends on engaging with the right people. A strong Reflector-Reflector partnership involves shared social circles, meaningful relationships, and a sense of belonging in the world.

Since Reflectors need time for clarity, rushing decisions can lead to misalignment. A healthy partnership involves waiting out the lunar cycle for major decisions and trusting that time will reveal the right path.

Reflectors do not have a fixed sense of self—they change depending on who they are with and where they are. A successful partnership involves accepting each other’s evolving nature and not forcing each other into rigid identities.

Because Reflectors can become overwhelmed by absorbing external energies, they need regular alone time, rest, and self-care. A strong relationship respects these needs without guilt or pressure.

SEE THE BEAUTY

All Beings Have a Right to Life
All beings have the right to life and to have their essential needs met. Human beings require shelter, food, water, clothing, education, medicine, supportive connections, and opportunities to develop and use their gifts—both for personal fulfillment and to contribute meaningfully to society.

Plants and Animals Have as Much Right as Humans to be Here
Plants and animals have an equal right to exist alongside humans. Their roles in ecosystems are vital and scientifically proven, and their presence inspires beauty, diversity, and spiritual meaning. The loss of any species diminishes universal consciousness and evolutionary potential, underscoring the urgent need to preserve all life and ecosystems to ensure the survival of everyone.

Human Beings Need to Support Goals that Will Benefit Everyone
Lasting peace depends on meeting the needs of all beings. Visionary leadership and grassroots collaboration are necessary to overcome the fear that resources are insufficient. This fear gives rise to the myth that only some individuals deserve access. By co-creating solutions and embracing the belief that all have a right to life, we can innovate ways to meet everyone’s needs. The central challenge is to finally answer the question of how we make this happen for everyone.

See the Beauty and Sacredness of Your Life – by Dave Gregg, Michael Channel
Loving life means reaching a state of equilibrium where acceptance of every aspect of existence brings peace. When you embrace life’s many forms and experiences, you can flow with events instead of resisting them. Let go of arguments with yourself or your circumstances, and move forward with a sense of calm purpose.

Acceptance of life does not require enjoyment of suffering or loss. Instead, it encourages letting go of resistance to misfortune, finding meaning in each circumstance, and appreciating life’s variety regardless of its challenges.

Hardships are a natural part of physical existence, and while much can be done to ease them, some difficulties are unavoidable. Recognize that even setbacks are part of life’s journey.

Learning to love life despite adversity means facing challenges with confidence and courage. You can focus on difficulties or choose to appreciate sources of happiness, even in the most minor things. Fulfillment can be found in both abundance and simplicity, demonstrating that joy is shaped by perspective.

Loving life is not about avoiding difficulties, but about including all experiences openly as part of your journey. Often, life feels most vibrant after overcoming hardship, much like the renewal that follows a storm. Accepting these cycles can empower you and bring lasting renewal.

Recognizing the beauty and sacredness of all life means that we cannot prioritize the well-being of one being over that of another. Acknowledging this truth is essential to fulfilling the right to life for all.

YOU ARE NOT YOUR CHART

The Living Map of Your Design

Your Design is more than a chart. It is a living map that reveals how your energy is meant to flow through life. It illuminates the tools you carry within, guiding you toward the choices, relationships, and opportunities that align with your deepest truth. It highlights your strengths and your natural attractions, pointing you toward the path where your life plan and soul purpose intersect.

By following this current of energy, you flow naturally into the very experiences you are meant to have, creations, expressions, and connections. These are the forces that shape your evolution, linking your design to how and why your energy moves you forward.

The Language of Energy

Our Design expresses itself in countless ways:

    • through our creativity,
    • in how we relate to others,
    • in the vocations and callings that stir our interest,
    • and in how we uncover meaning and fulfillment.

It serves as a map to our highest potential, yet Design is not static. More than a fixed description, it acts as a compass of growth, steadily guiding us toward each new horizon of our evolution and setting the stage for deeper exploration beyond charts and systems.

But here’s the key: your Human Design is not your Soul.

Beyond the Chart

Your chart reflects patterns of energy, but your soul is far larger and older than any system can contain. Each of us enters this life carrying a soul contract, a unique agenda shaped by lifetimes of choices, experiences, and relationships. Alongside Human Design, we are also shaped by astrology, genetics, psychology, upbringing, culture, and countless subtle influences.

Even within the chart itself, every aspect can express across a wide spectrum—from reactive, unconscious behaviors to their higher, more integrated expressions. Each person chooses, consciously or not, how to embody their Design.

The Soul’s Trajectory

We are not blank slates. We carry the memory of where we’ve been: the roles we’ve played, the ways we’ve treated others, the wounds we’ve caused, and the healing we’ve offered. This soul history is not just a record; it sets the stage for our current dharma; that is, the purpose we came to live, and the karma we came to balance.

Karma is inevitable because all actions seek balance. Dharma is woven into the fabric of our lives, the thread pulling us toward what we came to express. And because the Universe itself evolves toward higher consciousness, so too are we pulled toward unity, compassion, and integration. Exclusion and division only create more imbalance, more suffering, more karma.

Our soul contracts, the agreements we made before birth, place us in the right conditions to encounter both the dharma we are meant to embody and the karma that seeks resolution. While no manual is handed to us at birth, we are not without guidance. The callings that stir our hearts are the signposts showing us the way.

A Tapestry of Evolution

Your life is not separate from the whole. It is one thread in an unimaginably vast tapestry, woven together by the evolutionary field of the Universe. This field holds both the personal and the collective, and it is painted on the infinite canvas of consciousness itself—a canvas so boundless it can never be fully measured or contained.

This is why no single system, Human Design, astrology, numerology, or psychology, can ever capture the entirety of your being. At best, they are windows offering glimpses into the vastness of who you are.

And at the center of it all is this truth: how your Design expresses itself depends entirely on the soul that chose that Design.

Soul Stages and Evolution

Souls are not all at the same stage. Some are young, others are ancient. Some have woven long histories rich with complexity, others have shorter arcs of experience. This is why the same Design can look so different in different people—it is the soul’s history and intention that animates the chart.

Your past choices, your soul’s age, and your karmic imprints shape the particular dharma and karma you carry now. As you wake up to yourself, your capacity for discernment sharpens. You begin to know with greater clarity what belongs to you, what path is yours, and which choices align with your purpose.

The Mystery of Life

And yet, no one can tell you exactly why you have the life you have. Why some lives are more burdened with suffering than others is a mystery. Karma, accident, collective forces, and choice are all interwoven. Culture, too, shapes us with its expectations and pressures, sometimes pushing us away from our authentic path.

Some of us will have an easier road; others will walk with heavier loads. We may sense that some of it we chose, and some of it was placed upon us. The truth is, we may never know exactly how the balance plays out.

But what matters is this: whatever is on our plate is ours to engage.

Listening to the Call

Even amidst confusion, you can learn to recognize what belongs to you, what resonates as your work, your gifts, your path. Every experience, whether chosen or not, can be woven into the affirmation of who you are and why you are here.

Your Human Design may help point the way, but your soul holds the deeper map. And that map is revealed, step by step, every time you listen to the quiet call of what truly moves you.

DIG DEEPER

  • Why did your Soul create you? What did it want to do and experience through your life?
  • What can you infer about your dharma for this life from your talents, interests, and choices?
  • What can you infer about your karma (unfinished business; drive to tie up loose ends) for this life from your challenges?
  • Based on your strengths and inclinations, what do you think might be your Soul’s permanently identifiable traits — which of your traits do you think have been consistent for you from lifetime to lifetime? Hint: areas of excellence.
  • What might those traits suggest about the overarching nature (and purpose) of your unique Soul?
  • In what ways do you think you embody and express the unique nature of your Soul?

  1. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE ASTROLOGY CHART AND THE HUMAN DESIGN CHART

PROJECTORS CAN HAVE THE HARDEST TIME

Projectors often encounter significant challenges concerning their energy levels throughout the day. Unlike Reflectors, whose aura processes energy differently and helps prevent feelings of overwhelm, Projectors are particularly vulnerable to feeling drained. It’s also important not to confuse Manifestors with Projectors. Although both have an undefined Sacral center, Manifestors possess a motorized throat, which gives them a considerable amount of energy.

Projectors possess an aura that allows them to perceive the energy fields around them, granting them deep insights, but also making them vulnerable. Their primary purpose is thought to be maintaining the planet’s subtle energy body and clearing away the accumulated debris of collective energy. Over time, in addition to managing their own lives, Projectors can become extremely exhausted from handling this extra energy.

The Projector Design was established after the discovery of Uranus in 1781. The bodygraph transitioned from seven to nine centers, creating the Projector template and enhancing the awareness of sovereignty and free will across all types.

A Projector possesses a strong sense of their own sovereignty. Their unique aura allows them to be particularly attuned to the individuality of others and the fundamental right of each person to pursue their happiness, fulfillment, and overall well-being. However, a Projector’s well-being can suffer if they become too available, take on too many social and professional commitments, or work excessive hours.

Culturally, perceptions, paradigms, and expectations regarding self-sustainability often stem from the Generator’s capacity to access a consistent energy source, referred to as the defined Sacral. However, the assumption that physical energy is universally available in the same manner for everyone is a misconception, particularly when it comes to Projectors. This misunderstanding often results in unfair judgments, labeling Projectors as lazy, lost, or incapable of making commitments.

Currently, this perception prevails; however, the good news is that a significant shift in the design of the bodygraph is expected in February 2027. This change is known as the Solar Plexus Mutation (SPM). However, only individuals born after that time will possess the new bodygraph.

The consciousness brought about by the Solar Plexus Mutation will take time to develop its humanitarian and life-sensitive perspective and philosophy. The focus on extreme productivity and long working hours will eventually be recognized for its damaging effects on our bodies, minds, and creativity.

The Solar Plexus Mutation will also lead to significant changes in how we view other aspects of life. For instance, it will promote the respect of animals’ rights to live peacefully, rather than being hunted for sport or trophies. Animals will be recognized not merely as “food” but as sentient beings on their own evolutionary journeys.

Furthermore, our understanding of relationships will undergo substantial evolution. This will include new definitions of marriage, deeper insights into gender, and a greater recognition of employees as individuals who make significant contributions to a business. We will begin to invest in people rather than viewing them solely as labor. These transformations represent only a fraction of the changes that the Solar Plexus Mutation is expected to bring about.

We have a lot to look forward to, but we must also address our current challenges while we work towards a more progressive vision and practice. Although we may begin to see the early effects of the Solar Plexus Mutation on politics and culture, its influence will take time to establish deep roots. We can help accelerate this process by actively participating in models that respect all forms of life and by advocating for their protection.

As a Projector, it’s essential to evaluate your current commitments and activities to determine if your energy can support them all. If you find that it cannot, you need to consider what you can let go of. Projectors are not able to maintain the schedules typical of Generators, especially if they’ve been following one for too long. I’ve known several Projectors who bravely push forward, believing that determination and focus will yield better results and restore their energy. However, this approach rarely works. Many end up completely exhausted and need to be metaphorically, or sometimes literally, carried out on a stretcher.

Not every Projector experiences fatigue. Some rare Projectors have more energy, similar to Manifestors or Generators, but these cases are unusual. Still, all Projectors should pace themselves due to the lack of a defined Sacral Center or a motor connected to the throat.

  1. THE JOB OF CONSCIOUSNESS
  2. YOUR POWER COMES FROM WHAT YOU WERE GIVEN

HOLDING SPACE WITH THE EXPANDED HEART

When you expand your heart beyond its usual boundaries, you create space for the needs, concerns, and even the wounds of others, or even an entire group. However, how can you do this without also taking on their wounds yourself? First, it’s important to recognize that the purpose of expanding your heart is not to heal wounds that are not your own. By opening your heart and offering that space to others, you’re essentially creating a safe environment where they can rest, free from judgment or resistance. In this space, all the pain associated with their experiences—whether from their own actions or those of others—is allowed to exist and be expressed in its full intensity. This process helps release that pain, allowing it to evolve into a new state or form. This is how holding space can assist others in their healing journey.

You might wonder how the heart is able to 1) expand and 2) bring others into that expansion. We aren’t referring to the physical heart itself, although it is indeed the center from which this expansion radiates. As you know, all forms and their components are vibrantly alive as energy, infused with the life force of creation. At its core, form is pure potential and can be shaped by intention. When you direct your intention toward this pure potential, filling its formless state with the contents of your imagination, will, and desire, you initiate a shift in its fundamental energy. You create an expansion into a specific identity that reflects your original intention. It takes practice and belief to achieve the results you seek. The main idea here is to illustrate that, with intention alone, you can infinitely expand the energy of your heart.

You can direct your expanded energy to embrace those who seek solace and acceptance, inviting them into your heart. By doing this, your heart opens to love, allowing a direct connection to form between you and those you support. This is how you can maintain a safe space for others without harming or exhausting yourself. It’s not solely you who is providing this support; it is Spirit, embodying Love, that facilitates this connection. You are merely volunteering to be the facilitator or link, using your heart as the mechanism to connect both yourself and those you support to Source.

Offering your heart to others has tremendous benefits, not only for them but especially for you. Consider the analogy of volunteering at a soup kitchen. You have direct access to all the ingredients needed to create a substantial meal for those in need: spices, vegetables, grains, and proteins. As you chop, sauté, and blend various foods into sauces and stews, it’s your responsibility as the chef to sample portions of your meal as it progresses toward completion. This way, your service in nurturing others also nurtures you.

The call to be of service begins with serving oneself, which is a reflection of self-love. You cannot genuinely serve others without first offering that same love and service to yourself. It is essential to learn how to hold space for yourself; without experiencing deep self-love, your efforts to help others—even with the best intentions—will be incomplete, much like a soup that lacks sufficient sautéed onions and salt. You won’t know how to elevate a bland and mediocre soup to greatness.

However, it’s important to note that when you embrace your desire to be of service, you also open yourself to enhancing the quality of that service. Over time, you will become more skilled and develop mastery in the ways that resonate with you. This growth occurs because you have expanded your capacity to understand what truly makes your service effective, allowing you to deliver it from a well-anchored and secure place.

  1. THE STALWART HEART AND HEROIC DEPENDABILITY OF THE HUMAN DESIGN GENERATOR

THE SECOND SATURN RETURN AS A SCIENCE FICTION TALE

I

In the year 2349, humanity’s reach stretched across the solar system like a constellation of outposts. Colonies thrived on Mars, Venus shimmered with cloud cities, and even the icy moons of Jupiter pulsed with human life. The galaxy had begun to open its doors to exploration. Technology was at its zenith, yet for all the brilliance of human achievement, there remained mysteries the stars still guarded.

One of those mysteries was the Second Saturn Return.

Astrologers, scientists, and mystics alike whispered about its power. Some claimed it offered transcendent wisdom and crystalline clarity. Others said it only brought upheaval, chaos, and destruction. None could fully explain why, but all agreed that the Second Saturn Return was inevitable.

Mara was a space explorer who had just completed a mission to the edge of the galaxy. She was a seasoned adventurer, having visited more planets than anyone else in history. But one thing still eluded her—the Second Saturn Return. She had heard rumors of its power, but she had never experienced it herself. That was about to change.

Mara learned that the Second Saturn Return was just a few weeks away. She knew she had to be there for it, to witness its effects firsthand. She arranged to return to her home planet of Saturn, where she could study the Return and document its influence.

When Mara arrived, the planet was in chaos. The normally peaceful planet was in turmoil, and people were on edge. Mara knew this was the effect of the Second Saturn Return, and she had never seen anything like it. She was, after all, only 26.

Over the next few days, Mara observed the planet’s inhabitants, noting their behavior and interactions. It seemed that the Second Saturn Return was having a profound effect on them, but she could not fathom by what mechanisms.

Then, on the exact day of the Return, while Mara’s gaze was fixed on the planet’s rings as she pondered the mystery of Saturn, she saw a bright light in the sky. At first, she thought it was a meteor, but as it got closer, she realized it was something else entirely.

It was a spaceship unlike any she had ever seen before. It was sleek and silver, with smooth curves and no visible engines. It seemed to be floating effortlessly through the air, and as it approached, Mara felt a strange sense of excitement.

The ship landed a few hundred feet away from Mara, and the hatch opened. Out stepped a figure, tall and slender, with skin the color of midnight. 

The alien approached Mara, and they exchanged greetings. He spoke in a language she had never heard before, but somehow, she understood it. The alien, who introduced himself as Zayden, explained that he had traveled from a planet on the other side of the galaxy, drawn by the energy of the Second Saturn Return.

Zayden told Mara about a powerful artifact on Saturn, one that had been left there by an ancient civilization. The artifact was said to have the power, via its unique frequencies, to bring balance and harmony to any planet, especially one under the influence of a Second Saturn Return. However, no one had ever been able to find it.

Mara knew what she had to do. She set out to find the artifact, using all her knowledge and skills as an astronaut and mathematician. Zayden told her he would wait for her return in his spaceship, as he knew how to activate the artifact.

Mara was determined to find it and help her people. She knew that time was of the essence, as the energy of the Second Saturn Return was incredibly potent and the extent of its ramifications was unknown.

Mara traveled across the stars, battling a hundred-year space storm and fending off a group of hostile aliens who were also searching for the artifact.

As she pressed on, Mara herself began to feel the effects of the Second Saturn Return. She had a sense of clarity and purpose unlike anything she had previously experienced. Her mind was sharper, and her instincts were heightened. She knew that this was the power of the Return, and it was both exhilarating and terrifying.

Days passed, and Mara grew tired and discouraged. She had searched everywhere and found nothing. One evening, as she was half asleep, she had a vision. In the vision, she saw a strange symbol. It glowed with an otherworldly energy, and she knew that it was the key to finding the artifact.

Mara awoke from the vision, feeling invigorated and determined. She knew that she had to find the symbol and follow it to the artifact. She probed her memory, trying to recall where she had seen it before. Then it came to her. She had seen its likeness as strange markings in a cavern in a remote area on Titan.  She had once explored Saturn’s largest moon, but only casually.

Mara set out for Titan, hoping that her memory was correct. When she arrived at Titan, she searched in earnest and found it—the symbol from her vision. She knew then that the artifact really was somewhere inside the dark reaches of Titan’s caverns.

Mara carefully examined the labyrinthine passages in Titan, some of which were extremely narrow with many sharp protrusions. She avoided strange creatures who seemed just as intent on avoiding her. Finally, inside a massive chamber, she spied a faint glow beneath a pile of rocks.

The artifact was unlike anything Mara had ever seen before. It was a large crystal and glowed with intense energy. Mara felt awe and reverence. She believed this was the key to bringing balance and harmony to the planet.

Mara sped back to Saturn, and when she arrived, Zayden was waiting for her.

Mara presented him with the crystal, and he again explained that it had the power to neutralize the negative energy that was causing Saturn’s inhabitants so much emotional and psychic distress. Zayden activated the crystal, and Mara felt a shift in the energy around her.

Soon, the people of Saturn emerged from their homes and looked around in wonder. They still felt the energy of the Second Saturn Return, but now it was peaceful and serene.

Mara thanked Zayden for his help and still marveled that he had appeared unexpectedly to deliver crucial information that would ease the profound effects of the Saturn return.  Zayden showed her how to work with the crystal, and before she could ask him where he came from and how he knew about the crystal, he was gone.

II

Mara knew that there were other planets and civilizations in her solar system also struggling with their Second Saturn Returns, and she felt called to help them.

The Second Saturn Return was a powerful force, one that could bring chaos or harmony. Mara had witnessed both sides of its power, and she knew that it was up to individuals to use that power for good. She vowed to use her newfound clarity and wisdom to make a difference, to help bring balance and harmony to all planets experiencing polarization and violent divisiveness. These negative qualities had their basis in the inability or unwillingness of millions to access the potential for righteousness that could be found in their hearts.  

Mara packed the crystal, along with supplies, into her ship.  Planning for a long trip, she set a course for Earth. There she encountered turmoil and chaos. The planet was in the midst of a global crisis, with wars raging, democracy under siege everywhere, climate change disasters occurring at an unprecedented rate, and tremendous fear and mistrust among the people.

Mara knew that the Second Saturn Return, when surrendered to without fear, could help bring balance and harmony to Earth, just as it had done for Saturn. She activated the crystal, and in combination with her newfound wisdom, she brought healing to Earth.

Mara traveled far and wide, offering her assistance in critical situations. She worked with environmental organizations to combat climate change, volunteered with refugee groups to help those displaced by war and conflict, and advocated for peace and understanding between different cultures and religions.

As she worked tirelessly to make a difference, Mara continued to feel the effects of the Second Saturn Return. Her intuition was strong, and her connection to the Universe more profound. She knew that this was her calling, and she embraced it fully.

Years passed, and Mara became a beloved figure throughout the solar system. Her wisdom, compassion, and fearless leadership inspired countless others to take action and make a difference in their own communities. She continued her efforts to bring balance and harmony to the world around her.

As she approached her own Second Saturn Return, Mara felt a sense of completion. She knew that her journey thus far had been a long and challenging one, but given a choice, she would not have changed any of it. 

III

On the day of her Second Saturn Return, Mara sat in meditation, reflecting on her life’s journey thus far. As she closed her eyes, she felt a surge of energy, stronger than anything she had ever felt before. It was as if the entire Universe was speaking to her, congratulating her on her achievements and urging her to continue on her path.

Mara opened her eyes, feeling renewed and invigorated. She knew that there was still much work to be done, and she was ready for whatever lay ahead. She stood up, feeling the power of the Second Saturn Return coursing through her, and set out to continue her journey.

Mara was not alone. The energy of the Second Saturn Return was always with her, guiding and empowering her every step of the way. She knew that there were more challenges and obstacles ahead, but she also knew that she was more than capable of facing them.

Mara felt a deep sense of peace and contentment. She was grateful for the lessons and experiences of the past, but she was also excited for the adventures that lay ahead. With the power of the Second Saturn Return on her side, there was nothing she couldn’t accomplish.

As Mara continued her journey, adventure never failed to find her. Her strength and courage were tested, but she remained stalwart.

One day, while traveling through a remote desert region, Mara detected a hidden lair. She sensed danger, and her heart raced as she cautiously entered the dark cavern. To her surprise, she discovered that it was the base of a group of alien beings who were intent on taking over the Earth and enslaving its inhabitants.

Mara knew that she had to act quickly to stop their evil plans. She drew on the power of the Second Saturn Return and prepared herself for battle. As she made her way deeper into the lair, she encountered the alien leader, a formidable opponent.

The two battled fiercely, exchanging mighty blows. Mara’s enemy was redoubtable, but she remained focused and determined. She knew that the fate of Earth and its people depended on her success.

Finally, after much intense fighting, Mara emerged victorious. The alien leader lay defeated at her feet, and the rest of the aliens fled in terror. Mara breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground, exhausted but triumphant.

As she caught her breath, Mara realized that this was just one battle of many to come. She knew that other beings out there posed a threat to her solar system and beyond, and she was determined to stop them.

Over the years, Mara traveled to the far reaches of the galaxy, encountering new civilizations and cultures along the way. She fought against powerful aliens who sought to steal and control the vital resources of other planets. She was frequently joined in battle by the planet’s inhabitants.  

Through it all, the power of the Second Saturn Return sustained her. It gave her strength when she was weak, courage when she was afraid, and wisdom when she was unsure. Mara knew that she was not invincible, but she also knew that she was capable of great things.

IV

As she approached her Third Saturn Return, Mara felt a rush of fulfillment and accomplishment. She knew that she had made a difference, and she was proud of the life she had lived.

On the day of her Third Saturn Return, Mara sat in meditation once again, reflecting on her journey and the lessons she had learned. As she closed her eyes, peace and contentment washed over her. She knew that her time was coming to an end, but she was ready for whatever lay ahead.

When she opened her eyes, Mara saw a bright light before her. It was as if the Universe was calling to her, beckoning her to come forward. Mara nearly wept with joy and anticipation. She stood up, feeling the power of the Third Saturn Return, and stepped towards the light.

In that moment, Mara knew that her journey was not over. Saturn was now part of her and would guide and empower her as long as she breathed. She knew that she had been blessed with an incredible gift, and because she had surrendered to that gift, she had learned to wield it mightily. She was now an Elder of great compassion, enduring strength, and extraordinary wisdom.

  2. MARA MEETS PLUTO

THE URANUS OPPOSITION

The Uranus Opposition is a significant life cycle event that occurs between the ages of 42 and 44, when transit Uranus is opposite the natal position of Uranus in your chart. Uranus represents freedom and, when activated, it prompts a reevaluation of the status quo, encouraging necessary changes. During this transit, you may feel a strong urge to break free from limitations and make transformative changes in your life. This drive for change can be intense enough to impact various aspects of your existence, though not all changes will necessarily be disruptive. As the planet of innovation and transformation, Uranus’s opposition can lead to unexpected events and sudden shifts, some of which may not be entirely under your control.

One of the key themes of the Uranus opposition is the need for greater personal freedom and a stronger desire for deeper individuation. It is a time when we feel compelled to break free from the constraints of society and tradition, as well as from the limitations imposed by our current lives and conditioning. We strive to discover and forge a path that will allow us to identify and express our authentic selves. This new path can take many forms, such as a desire to change careers, relocate, end a long-term relationship, or pursue new opportunities. Once this desire is acknowledged, our journey unfolds.

The opposition of Uranus marks a time of significant change and transformation. We are compelled to confront our deepest fears and insecurities. While this period can be challenging, it also presents an opportunity for growth and self-discovery.

The nature of Uranus suggests that its global events can trigger significant changes. Feelings of extreme restlessness and dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs, which have been building for some time, surface during this period. It is a time when authority and established norms are questioned, sometimes even violently.

Protests, revolutions, and other forms of social upheaval are often timed by Uranus, especially when it is aspecting Pluto or Saturn. During these periods, particularly when there are transiting contacts between Uranus and Pluto (such as conjunctions, squares, or oppositions), we witness major historical turning points that lead to lasting changes in dominant cultural paradigms. Events involving Uranus and Pluto typically lead to revolutionary movements, technological advancements, and significant shifts in social and political structures.

The Uranus opposition is a significant astrological event that brings about change, disruption, and a strong desire for personal freedom. During this time, obstacles can be removed, paving the way for new experiences. Although it can be challenging, this period also offers tremendous opportunities for growth and self-discovery. It’s important to embrace these changes and maintain an attitude that allows you to adapt to new circumstances as they arise. By doing so, you can allow your life to flow in a new direction rather than resisting these shifts.

QUANTUM ASTROLOGY: THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE COSMOS AND HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS

 

Quantum Astrology is a field of study that combines the principles of quantum physics and astrology to explore the connection between the cosmos and human consciousness, and to create a more holistic understanding of the universe and our place within it.

Quantum physics, which deals with the behavior of particles on a subatomic level, tells us that the universe is made up of tiny particles called quanta that exist in a state of constant flux. These particles are connected in ways that cannot be fully explained by classical physics, and their behavior is often described as “quantum entanglement.” Quantum entanglement suggests that we are immersed in a vast network of energy and information. Classical physics deals with the macroscopic world that we can see and touch, while quantum physics deals with the microscopic world of atoms and subatomic particles.

Astrology is the study of the movements and relative positions of celestial bodies and understands that they have an influence on human affairs and natural phenomena. 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: Quantum entanglement is the phenomenon that occurs when a group of particles are generated, interact, or share spatial proximity in a way such that the quantum state of each particle of the group cannot be described independently of the state of the others, including when the particles are separated by a large distance. The topic of quantum entanglement is at the heart of the disparity between classical and quantum physics: entanglement is a primary feature of quantum mechanics not present in classical mechanics.[1]

An entangled system is defined as one whose quantum state cannot be factored as a product of states of its local constituents.  In other words, they are not individual particles but are an inseparable whole.  In entanglement, one constituent cannot be fully described without considering the other(s). 

Therefore, a key principle of Quantum Astrology is the idea that everything in the universe is interconnected and that energy flows between all things. This means that the energy of the stars and planets at the moment of our birth affect our energy field and influence our thoughts, emotions, and behavior, including shaping our personality and influencing our destiny.

Astrology has long held that the unique configuration of celestial bodies at our birth moment shapes our personality and influences our destiny. Quantum Astrology suggests that the quantum entanglement of particles in the universe is connected to the movements of celestial bodies, and that we are an inextricable part of this larger field of entanglement.

Another key principle of Quantum Astrology is that our thoughts and emotions play a crucial role in shaping our reality. According to this principle, our thoughts and emotions are like waves of energy that ripple out into the universe, creating a feedback loop that shapes our experiences.

Quantum Astrology believes that the positions and movements of celestial bodies act as triggers for these thoughts and emotions. For example, the movement of a certain planet into a specific astrological sign may correspond with a shift in our emotional state or a change in our thoughts.

This idea that the positions and movements of celestial bodies as they spin and revolve in their orbits can influence our thoughts and emotions is not new. Astrology has long held that the positions of celestial bodies can influence our lives. Quantum Astrology takes this idea one step further by positing that the energy and formation of celestial bodies respective to each other also influences the energy of our own bodies.

One practical application of Quantum Astrology is in the field of healing. By understanding the connection between our thoughts, emotions, and the positions and movements of celestial bodies, we can use astrological information to help us access and release stored emotional energy, promoting healing and personal growth.

Quantum Astrology brings these two seemingly disparate fields together by positing that the universe is interconnected, and that the energy and information of celestial bodies, as well as the energy and information of our own bodies, are all part of the same network.  We are part of a vast matrix of consciousness.

To reiterate, Quantum Astrology combines the principles of quantum physics and astrology to explore the connection between the cosmos and human consciousness. It suggests that the alignment of celestial bodies at the time of our birth has a significant impact on our lives, and that by understanding this connection, we can gain insight into the potential outcomes of certain events in our lives so that we can make better decisions.

As our understanding of the quantum universe continues to evolve, it is likely that Quantum Astrology will play an increasingly important role in our understanding of the cosmos and our place within it. By embracing the principles of uncertainty, entanglement, and consciousness, we may be able to unlock new insights into the evolution of human consciousness and our relationship with the wider universe.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE ASTROLOGY CHART AND THE HUMAN DESIGN CHART

Image: Astrology and Human Design charts for Michel Gauquelin 1

The following discussion is not intended to cover every feature of astrology and Human Design charts. This overview aims to provide a comparison of each system’s primary components.

The astrological birth chart and the Human Design chart are both created from the placement in these charts of the planets’ positions at the moment of your birth. The Human Design bodygraph would be empty without planets! 

The astrology chart and the Human Design chart are systems that offer profound insight and information through their unique architecture and language. Note that each system provides interpretations for individual birth charts, as well as for events, mundane or personal.

Each system is based on astrology. Simply put, astrology is the study of the influence of the stars and planets on human behavior and life. These celestial bodies influence individual psychology and initiate life-changing events through shifts in planetary cycles, including Solar Returns, Saturn Returns, the Uranus Opposition, the Chiron Return, and others. Shifting life circumstances are also triggered by transits and progressions that are unique to the individual’s astrology chart. Planetary (or Life Cycle) charts, transits, and progressions can be read through the lens of Human Design or astrology charts. The influence of the stars and planets also affects global shifts of various kinds, including weather patterns, technological advancements, scientific discoveries, legal developments, conflicts that lead to war, cultural trends, and societal evolution.

While Human Design and astrology are distinct systems, the meanings and natures of the planets remain consistent in both systems. 

In astrology, planets sit inside houses. There are 12 houses in the astrology chart or horoscope wheel. Each house has a unique meaning, and so the combination of the planet with the meaning of the house it is located in lends itself to a particular interpretation. In addition, each planet is in a specific sign at the moment of your birth. 

Traditional astrological interpretation combines the meaning of the planet with the meaning of the sign it occupies, as well as the meaning of the house in which it resides. It also includes the aspects that natal planets make to each other. Planets in signs and houses, plus the aspects they make, tell us how a natal planet expresses. Again, the essential nature of a horoscope planet is influenced by the sign it is in, the house it is in, and the aspects that it makes to other planets, asteroids, or to the angles of the horoscope (astrology chart). 

In the Human Design chart, planets sit inside gates instead of houses. There are 64 gates in the Human Design system. The gates are based on the I Ching’s 64 hexagrams, so it is helpful to have an understanding of these. However, each gate in Human Design has an assigned meaning, which is less complex and more succinct than the contemplations of the I Ching. In Human Design, we blend the meaning of the gate with the meaning of the planet. And we add the meaning of the line the planet occupies.

Each gate contains six lines, and each line has its own specific meaning. In Human Design, we combine the meaning of the planet associated with a gate with the line within which it resides. Given that there are 12 planets, two nodes, and an assortment of asteroids that one can choose to include, the permutations for combinations of planets, nodes, and asteroids with 64 gates and six lines are myriad.

The Human Design planets do not make aspects to each other the way planets in the astrology birth chart do. Still, it is their arrangement in the bodygraph that gives you your energy Type — Projector, Manifestor, Generator, Manifesting Generator, or Reflector. Your Type comes with a specific Strategy as well as Authority. In addition, the complex of definition and openness in the chart will give you your unique personal Design.

There’s more: the placement of your planets in the Human Design chart will fall into circuits. There are three primary circuits in Human Design – collective, tribal, and individual, and each of these contains sub-circuits, which I won’t go into here. Circuits and their sub-circuits add further layers of meaning to the interpretation of an individual’s Human Design chart.

I must also mention that the Human Design chart contains the all-important Incarnation Cross, which represents the energy frequency and the storyline of the Life Purpose. This Cross is comprised of four gates: the Conscious and Unconscious Sun, and the Conscious and Unconscious Earth. It is said to constitute 70% of the energy of your being. 

As you can see, each system has a unique structure and lens of perception. Each offers excellent information about your essential makeup and temperament. Use these complementary systems to take you on a deep and intriguing exploration to discover and validate your many gifts, traits, and the tools that were given to you at the moment of your birth.

MINDFULNESS IN HUMAN DESIGN

Human Design teaches us to use our energy for the right things and avoid the wrong ones. We often decide with our minds and bypass our body’s unique intelligence. The mind can explore interesting ideas, and we enjoy reflecting on them. This is a correct use of the mind. However, our minds are not made to know what is right for us. In Human Design, mindfulness is not about the mind.

Mindfulness comes from the body’s intelligence. Human Design says the mind is like a car passenger. The mind’s proper role is to sit back, enjoy the ride, and not fight your body’s wisdom for the steering wheel. Human Design’s tools—Strategy and Authority—help the mind stay comfortable in the back seat.

Human Design doesn’t tell you your level of consciousness or awareness. It won’t define your moral compass, values, or politics. However, it will reveal what motivates you. It highlights the themes that run consistently through your life. These themes are the areas you’re compelled to explore because that’s where your gifts lie. Your Human Design chart is a map and blueprint of your true way of being. By following that map, you are practicing mindfulness; that is, you are being aware of who you are meant to be.  

In the practice of mindfulness, we purposely bring our attention to the present moment, without judgment. We see ourselves as we are. This is what Human Design does: it shows you your Design, and there is no judgment!

How Human Design Supports Mindfulness

The Human Design system – its very structure – reveals that we are designed to use our lives to serve the evolution of humanity. It shows that we are intended to honor the integrity of our bodies so that we can be more and give more. We are designed to care for each other and to make peaceful agreements that allow others to be more and give more.  We are designed to live in integrity with who we truly are and with one another.

This state of mindfulness about how to live as individuals and in community keeps us healthy and thriving. We are meant to experience a more beautiful world when we honor the power of well-being for ourselves and others.  

As has already been mentioned, we do not use our minds for decisions in Human Design. We rely on mindfulness, which means being present with the body’s wisdom.

How To Access Your Body’s Wisdom

The primary mindfulness tool is Strategy, or being present to body wisdom. Strategy is unique to your Type and matches your Type’s energy flow. It gives key information about the right choices for you. Each Type has a Strategy: Projectors wait to be Invited, Manifestors Inform, Generators and Manifesting Generators use their Sacral Response, and Reflectors wait at least one Lunar Cycle.

A secondary tool that supports mindfulness is Authority. It flavors the way you use your Strategy. There are seven kinds of authority:

      • Sacral
      • Splenic
      • Emotional Solar Plexus⠀
      • Ego (Will)⠀
      • Self-Projected⠀
      • Mental-Projected⠀
      • Lunar⠀

For a description of the above authorities, go to The Human Design Authorities

Your Authority is used in conjunction with your Strategy. Authority assists you with the timing of entering into a new commitment of your energy. Timing is directly related to waiting for an intuitive sense or feeling of the correct moment to move forward.

In Human Design, Mindfulness means that we remember to:

      • Love ourselves
      • Trust ourselves
      • Stand in our power
      • Stay deeply aligned with our authentic selves.
      • Make the choices that are correct for us.
      • Move forward with our true story, and not sit in old stories that aren’t worthy of us.
      • Take care of our bodies and our spirits so that we stay energetic and vital.
      • Work on our sense of value so that we can allow ourselves to receive what we need to fulfill our purpose and mission.

FOLLOW YOUR JOY

 

Understanding how you are ‘wired’ is the beginning of self-knowledge. We discover how we are wired by witnessing what we instinctively move towards. We naturally move towards what fascinates us, towards what we find interesting and exciting. We may or may not stay with what we find interesting, but this is neither here nor there. The point is to get to know what is interesting to you and to stay with that until you no longer find it interesting. What happens is that you will spend more time with those interests that resonate with your wiring; i.e., your essential nature. In other words, with who you are.  You will inevitably develop skills in those areas you stay with. The longer you stay with something, the more mastery you have. Mastery makes you potent and desirable.

Trust that your next step will become apparent. Take the step that brings you the most excitement — this is always your cue for the right direction. Taking the next step on behalf of your joy is much better than not moving at all. If you find yourself losing your joy, then correct your course to reconnect with it. When you follow your joy, how you live your life will gradually come back into congruence with your purpose. When you follow your joy, what is right for you will find you.

Life always offers us more than one platform (or opportunity) to live and work from. We may not always get paid for what we love, but we can immerse ourselves in our bliss while we take care of what needs to be taken care of, and do what we need to do to maintain our physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and economic integrity.

We often think that life has to look a certain way by a certain time, but that is not what life is about.  For each one of us it is important to stay the course until the work is complete. Work left undone must be finished. All things will be addressed and healed when the timing and flow of energy is also aligned with your strategy. Then you will know that now is the time for moving forward with something. Opportunities that belong to you will show up in correct timing. In the meantime, take care of your incomplete transactions.

It is important to have faith that your life is unfolding as it should — not as you think it should, or as others think it should. There is a larger context which you cannot see from where you are, but which is dynamic and compelling, and which will take you to where you need to go, so that you can continue to evolve into who you are. Resisting the intelligence of the design and deeper intention of your life will only keep you turning in circles.

By following your bliss while you take care of your infrastructure needs you will maintain emotional balance. If we only spend time keeping body and soul together, we can become cynical, and even depressed. That is because we forget what makes us come alive. Do those things that make your life worth living! This will keep you grounded and connected to Life. As long as you have something to love, including working with causes dear to your heart, life will always be meaningful and filled with purpose.  And with purpose comes joy.

  1. FOLLOW WHAT FULFILLS TO FIND YOUR PURPOSE

HOW DO I FIND MY PURPOSE?

Purpose is found in your experiences of the moment, in expression as well action, and it is not just one thing. Purpose is not defined as an end-goal or a product launch. Your understanding of purpose, and your purpose specifically, evolves over the course of your life as you expand in self-awareness.

While purpose can be expressed through a vocation or vocations, the vocation actually provides the CONTEXT for the expression of one’s purpose. In and of itself a vocation is not your purpose, although some vocations will be beautifully aligned with your purpose.

Think about your purpose as the pursuit of your excitement and curiosity — which always includes following your heart — rather than as something that is easily contained or defined by a business or job or career. The reason is: purpose is ultimately about finding and staying connected to all those things that will support the continued expansion of your consciousness and your joy.

Live your life at a pace that is always consonant with your energy levels. Be aware of your level of vitality so that you don’t push when you are tired. When you are tired, it is time to slow down. It is time to restore yourself. Body, mind, and heart. This means eliminating tasks that do not support your sustainability and saying no to commitments that will demand time, energy, and interests that you don’t have.

Take stock of your talents and interests because the clues to your purpose are here. Your talents and interests will become skills if you invest time and energy into them. Your skills are the specific tools given to you by design to help you discover your purpose, and to support it. The more you use your skills, the more your purpose will unfold.

HOW CAN I FEEL MORE AT EASE IN THE WORLD?

Before we can feel at ease with the world, we need to feel at ease with ourselves. Being at ease with oneself means feeling physically well, emotionally balanced, and intellectually engaged. It means accepting ourselves as we are. It means truly caring for who we are. It means loving ourselves, always and no matter what!

If we want to make changes, we start from where we are. We do not criticize or put ourselves down. I cannot overstate how important it is to feel well in the body before you can feel at ease with anything. That means plenty of rest and eating the foods that support you. It is so important to rest your nervous system. This means avoiding conflict and negative thoughts. This means your relationships are mutually respectful and supportive.

When we feel at ease with ourselves, we are available to serve. Then we can do our part to make a positive change in the world. Most importantly, living righteous lives will help us feel at ease with the world. Righteous lives seek the greater good for all, but never to the exclusion of self. A righteous life has an open heart, but is never a victim. A righteous life means believing in yourself and recognizing that all beings have the right to thrive.

ROE v. WADE OVERTURNED: A Profound Inflection Point for a Woman’s Body Sovereignty as Seen through Astrology and Human Design

Astrologers love to look at the charts of significant moments to see what the planets were up to (e.g., sign placements, conjunctions to angles, velocities, and more), and how they were interacting with each other. Each moment is filled with information and effect, yet not all moments are explosive.  Most are ordinary.

When we look at the charts of collective events, like those of earthquakes, invasions, or historical decisions, we sometimes wonder if it was that particular configuration of planets that caused something to happen, if perhaps the event was created from a cumulative buildup of energies that made a particular moment noteworthy and inevitable.

Or perhaps the cumulative buildup is made from protracted human stress and trauma, and these energies, having made their way into the quantum field, get picked up by those celestial configurations that are best able to give those energies a voice and comprehensive release. 

And perhaps the planets themselves are also giving expression to a significant moment of their own evolution.

But we don’t definitively know.  What we have are the charts of significant moments that we can dive into to analyze the character of the significant moment and to understand, to the best of our interpretive skills, the needs it expresses, the message it delivers, and what it might indicate about how the nature of the event could evolve over time.

Significant Aspects of the Astrology Chart of the Supreme Court Decision that Overturned Roe v. Wade

The Midheaven, highly visible, and considered to be one of the four power points in a chart, is flanked by Uranus from the 9th house side and the North Node from the 10th house side. Uranus and the North Node each conjunct the Midheaven, and conjunct each other. This is an aspect that heralds change. Uranus is not subtle, and the extent and manner of its impact is not predictable. Uranus is an iconoclast whose mission is to take things apart so that we can reconstruct a situation to meet real needs. We can expect that its conjunction to the North Node will create discomfort. The North Node pulls us into the future we have been creating with our actions. That future is tangled with forces that have opposing intentions. We are in a life and death tug-of-war to decide which future will win.  Where will North Node-Uranus take us?

The fixed star Algol is also conjunct the Midheaven. Algol is considered to be a star that brings misfortune and violence.  Its mythology is associated with the Greek Gorgon Medusa who had the ability to turn anyone who looked into her eyes to stone. It is important to note that Medusa was not always a Gorgon with writhing snakes for hair. She was an Oracle Goddess who was transformed into a monster by Pallas Athena, who was furious that Medusa broke her vow of celibacy through an affair with Poseidon. Medusa’s rage at her forced transformation was dangerous and powerful, and so she was further injured with decapitation.

A deeper understanding of the great rage of this archetype must bring us to consider that the life Medusa had chosen was forcibly removed from her by someone more powerful, causing her to suffer physically, spiritually, and emotionally.  Her grief and rage were relentless.  Her rage became a weapon, even after her decapitation.

Algol-Medusa is no stranger to the depths of suffering wrought by invasive and unjust intervention into the trajectory a life. What Women need for their stability and safety has been abruptly removed. The decision of the Supreme Court took a heinous approach that symbolically transformed Medusa from a Goddess into a monster, and then cut off her head, removing the right to sovereignty over her own body.  

While the effects of this decision are misfortune and violence to women, in this chart there is also the ability to push back that misfortune. In this chart Pluto trines Algol-Medusa.  Pluto cannot be trifled with, and in a trine aspect, transmits tremendous support while also amplifying the power inherent to the planet, or in this case, the Star. This tells us that the chart already contains the ability to challenge and reverse this decision.

The Moon is also part of the configuration of conjunctions (a/k/a stellium) to the Midheaven, as it is conjunct Uranus and the Midheaven.  A configuration that includes Uranus, the Midheaven, the North Node, the Moon, and the fixed star Algol is complex, and not open to quick and easy interpretation. The Moon in this position represents the public. The Moon is also our emotions. The Moon is Women. It is the place where we give and receive nurture, and where we can also be emotionally wounded. In this chart the Moon occupies a Gauquelin culminating zone, imbuing it with story-telling abilities, psychological and spiritual insight, heightened sensitivities, and a need for beauty.

Uranus and the North Node abruptly pull us into the future that has been brewing, causing shock to our sensibilities and emotions with the accompanying sense of destiny gone wrong. Yet this destiny, given current circumstances, appears to have been inevitable.

Saturn, which is angular via its conjunction to the descendant, squares the entire configuration of Moon, Uranus, Midheaven, North Node, and the fixed star Algol.  It is noteworthy that the astrology of Roe v. Wade Overturned contains the Saturn-Uranus square which began in early 2021, and which will remain in effect through early October 2022.  A square is  a 90° angle between planets, and is an aspect of tension.  It is difficult to resolve the tension of a square because the planets’ goals are not aligned.  Saturn-Uranus squares influence societal and personal change through great pressure by creating instability, chaos, and upheaval. Historically, among worse case scenarios, this influence has manifested in civil unrest, economic recessions, violence, and war.  The changes that hard contacts between Saturn and Uranus bring unfold over decades.  This square has been in effect for some time, and we have seen its influence unfolding.  The overturning of Roe v. Wade is a paramount expression of that unfolding influence.  

When Saturn’s job to maintain the status quo overreaches to work against the evolving needs of humanity, systems that have been in place are undermined.  Saturn’s systems and rules are meant to ensure the safety and well-being of communities, but when those traditions are reversed in a way that violates the needs of groups and individuals, Saturn becomes the oppressor rather than the protector.

Astrologically, Saturn rules judges and the judiciary system. It is obvious to everyone that this system has overreached, with potentially destructive consequences.

Saturn squares the Moon, the Midheaven, the North Node, and the star Algol-Medusa of this complex conjunction-stellium. The Midheaven and the Moon in this chart represent the majority, and the North Node points the path towards the future that we must create to serve the majority.  The energy of Algol-Medusa is focused on justice.  It is an energy of righteous intensity that should be heard and is crossed at great peril.

Additional Planet Influences in the Astrological Moment of the Supreme Court Decision

Mars is Perihelion, meaning that it is at its hottest and traveling at its fastest, making this an intense and egocentric condition.  Mars is not that focused here; it is fiery but combustible, which means that it does not have staying power.  But while it is perihelion it can express the toxic masculine.

Mars’ dynamic in this chart indicates that the Court’s assertion of power was self-righteous, aggressive, and narcissistic.  Its Opinion is heavily spun with the beliefs and values of a Minority intent on forcing the Majority to conform to those values. There is nothing inherently absolute about those values, the truths of which are entirely subjective, and which do not reflect or conform to the needs of the Majority.  The values that the Court has chosen to impose on the rest of us work against the needs of the collective, and of evolution.  As such, they will not hold. 

Neptune is Stationary.  Stationary Neptune is about the Mythos of a collective.  Mythos is expressed at the local, regional, national, and worldwide levels.  A Mythos encapsulates the core ideology, including the beliefs and values, of a particular community. Those values impart identity and belonging.

A functioning Mythos creates a sense of greater purpose for an entire community. The Mythos for the particular community of women who have been harmed by the overturning of Roe v. Wade is the right to exercise sovereignty over their lives and bodies. The position of Neptune indicates that the concept of Mythos is both highlighted and challenged by other aspects in the chart, but its stationary condition tells us that the Mythos is active and on alert. 

The Evolution of the Roe v. Wade Overturned Chart

Astrologers understand that although the moment of an event is fixed, the planets that form that picture are not static. They will continue their revolutions around the Sun, creating transits and progressions to the originating event chart. In other words, we can expect movement.  

Pluto and Uranus will begin a powerful trine in June 2026, which is exact in July 2026, but it will be felt as early as July 2025. This is a long-term aspect that begins separating in April 2029. The tearing down of infrastructures that a supercilious judicial system has wrought will be reconstructed under the Pluto-Uranus trine. This trine is a long-term influence, and battles lie ahead. We know from the history of how the Pluto-Uranus trine works that there will be a rebuild, and what we lost will be restored. However, while timing is unable to be predicted, given the recovery needs of deep shock from the decapitation of our fundamental rights, my sense is that we will see change sooner than later.

Significant Aspects of the Human Design Chart of the Supreme Court Decision that Overturned Roe v. Wade

The Human Design chart for this decision is a Manifestor type with a 6/2 profile and the Incarnation Cross of Prevention. 

What do we know about the Manifestor? The life purpose of the Manifestor is to initiate action and creation. The Manifestor is about leading change by sharing new ideas, pushing people beyond their comfort level, and empowering them to do things in new ways. The Manifestor initiates others into the frequency of creativity. This chart shows that creative thinking and action are required to push back against the Supreme Court’s decision to strip us of our right to make our own personal decisions.

Defined Channels of the Roe v. Wade Overturned Human Design Chart

In Human Design, we also examine the defined channels to understand the chart’s overall purpose. There are three defined channels in the Roe v. Wade Overturned chart. (Channels are given their Quantum Human Design TM names and definition as re-described by Karen Curry Parker.)

The Channel of Innovative Thinking, the 43-23

This channel is about thinking outside the box. This energy is knowing, inventive, innovative, mutative, and imaginative. Here we have the capacity to push past assumptions about both the nature of a problem and how it may best be solved. Transformative, unconventional thinking can come to the rescue.

 The Channel of Self Assurance, the 10-20

This channel is about organizing others around higher ideals rooted in self-love and self-empowerment. This channel gives us the power to speak words that can change the narrative and direction of our lives by installing higher concepts that show us how to connect to the possibilities that open up to more empowered and authentic lives.

The Channel of the Threshold, the 36-35

This channel can introduce new experiences that show us how to push back against the limits of the story we are told about how we should live, so we can create an empowering narrative for how we want to live.

—————

The 6/2 Profile is the Adept/ Responder in Quantum Human Design TM, and in traditional language, the Role Model/ Hermit. The 6th line is a transpersonal profile that serves as an example or role model to others of what is possible when you are true to yourself.  The 6th line is deeply mission-driven with a strong sense of destiny.  As well, with the 2nd line, there is the need to take alone time to discharge excess energy and to stay connected to inner guidance.

Most importantly, the Incarnation Cross of this Chart is the Cross of Prevention. This Cross holds Guardian energy, and it will steer us away from harm. It guides us to follow paths that heal and to avoid paths that cause harm. The Sun in Gate 15 is about the love of others. The energy of this Cross is about empowering others to do what they need to do to be the stewards of their own lives. This Cross is very clear about which behaviors and dynamics do not serve our needs and purpose. It offers instruction and correction to get us back on the right path and gives us the ability to recognize what empowers us.

Central Themes of the Charts of Roe v. Wade Overturned

As stated earlier, a configuration that includes a stellium of Uranus, the Midheaven, the North Node, the Moon, and the fixed star Algol is complex and not readily open to quick, easy interpretation. These charts speak to the complexity and intensity of the moment and to the implosive consequences of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade on June 24, 2022.

The core of this decision, and as seen in the charts of the moment, 10:05 AM Eastern time in Washington, D.C., is the profound travesty that was enacted against women. The archetype of Algol-Medusa is strikingly apt, as women have been dishonored and deeply disrespected. But the astrology chart also contains the ability to push back with the Pluto trine to Algol-Medusa. Pluto transmits its inimitable support and amplifies the collective power exemplified by this fixed Star. We have the power and ability to challenge and reverse this decision.

Astrologically, Saturn rules judges and the judiciary system. Saturn’s legal systems are meant to ensure the safety and well-being of communities, but when those systems are violated, Saturn becomes the oppressor rather than the protector. Then we have an inversion of Saturn’s job and purpose. For now, Saturn has been hijacked by the judiciary, but it cannot permanently hold a position that runs counter to its fundamental nature. 

There is no community without a Mythos because every community creates its own — naturally, and from necessity. A Mythos encapsulates the core ideology of a particular community, including its beliefs and values. A functioning Mythos creates a sense of greater purpose for an entire community by representing its fundamental and enduring values. Stationary Neptune tells us that the Mythos is alive and well in the consciousness of the community of women who will fight for the right of sovereignty of their bodies. Stationary Neptune also tells us that a community’s Mythos has been called to attention.

The Manifestor aspect of this chart indicates that we will need to lead the charge to claim what is ours. We will organize ourselves around our ideals and pursue creative solutions to push back against the boundaries that seek to control our bodies.  We are mission-driven to manifest our right lives.

The energy of the Incarnation Cross of the Human Design chart is about empowering others to do what they need to do to be the stewards of their own lives, and that includes being aware of the behaviors and dynamics of others — as well as our own — that do not serve our needs and purposes.

We look forward to the Pluto-Uranus trine, which promises a revolution and a rebuild, including the restoration of what was stolen from us.

SUMMER SOLSTICE 2022 THROUGH THE LENS OF HUMAN DESIGN AND ASTROLOGY: A TIME OF CHANGE AND CHOICE

It’s always an interesting endeavor to compare a particular moment in time through the lens of different systems.  Each system has its own set of mechanics, language, and basis for understanding how it works and how to interpret it.  And each system offers a unique portal to understanding any moment.

Every chart is a picture of a moment in time. Any part of a Human Design or astrology chart can be expressed beneficially or detrimentally. The parts are the mechanics; the possibilities of how these are expressed are dependent on the psychology of the human beings who express them.  There is also the timing of events or “acts of God” that can occur when there are difficult aspects between the more challenging planets.  However, much of the good and most of the damage visited on this planet is the result of human action or inaction, and it is human intervention that can always repair damage from both mundane- and human-induced events.  

The Human Design bodygraph would be completely blank without the placement of planets inside its gates. It is the astrology of the moment that gives the Human Design chart its one-of-a-kind design. Comparing and contrasting an astrological moment through the lens of both Human Design and astrology adds layers to the information and insights that may be gleaned from understanding the central energies of a moment.

The Summer Solstice—occurring this year on June 21—marks the day when the Sun is at its northernmost or southernmost arc along the celestial equator. This is the beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, but winter begins in the Southern Hemisphere. The Sun is directly above the Tropic of Cancer in the North and makes the longest day of the year.  In the Southern Hemisphere, it is the shortest day and longest night.

Seasonal changes occur quarterly and their influences last at least until the next season’s ingress, but there are no solid demarcations because influences wane over time.

On June 21, 2022, the Sun enters 0° Cancer at 5:13 AM Eastern Daylight Time.  I am using the location of Washington, D.C., as it is the Capital of the United States and as such, represents this country’s collective experience. 

Significant Aspects of the Solstice Chart

The following selected aspects affect both the individual and the collective. These aspects, with the exception of the angular placement of Saturn, are universal for the moment of Solstice.  Note that the aspects discussed here are the highlights as I have identified them, and that there is always more that can be explored.

The Sun is in Cancer, an energy that is emotionally sensitive and vulnerable, and which needs true Home. We seek to create a solid foundation that will support our needs for safety and security so that we can comfortably anchor our lives. We also look forward to the colors and exuberance of Summer.

Saturn is conjunct the Midheaven of the 2022 Summer Solstice Chart.  It is angular, and as such, is considered in traditional astrology to be powerful.  Saturn also occupies a Gauquelin culminating zone.  Gauquelin’s decades of duplicatable research discovered that certain planets, when rising or culminating, are especially powerful in their expression.

What does Saturn’s placement in an angular and culminating zone in the Solstice chart mean?  This is a hard-working, practical, and realistic energy.  It is responsible, organized, and oriented to problem-solving and getting results.  It keeps the wheels of civilization turning by maintaining the infrastructure that supports the well-being of the collective.  This energy is no-nonsense, focused, and self-sufficient.  Because Uranus is also conjunct the North node (discussion is below), we can be grateful to have access to Saturn’s serious and purposeful nature.  We will need it.

Mars is conjunct Chiron, suggesting that we are open to working on current issues (wounds) and those from the past that continue to plague our ability to move forward.  We want to find resolution, or at least work towards that. Mars is in its home sign of Aries and is focused on taking care of what’s on our plate. While Aries is an adventurous, independent energy eager to get moving and attain its goals, it is also transparent and vulnerable.  Aries does not hide its intentions and can at times be easily conned.

Jupiter and the Moon are conjunct, suggesting that we seek emotional well-being.  We also need room to move, and seek to make our living spaces more comfortable, and even expansive.  Jupiter-Moon conjunctions seek abundance and expansion in all arenas.  At the individual level, we work with what we have to create more spaciousness in our surroundings, and are more open to the needs of the collective.

Pluto trines Venus, potentially offering social connections, companionship, and enhanced financial status. While Pluto is an energy that seeks and reveals depths, in its benevolent aspects it brings opportunities to experience the gold inherent in Pluto, and its trine relationship to Venus can create financial opportunities through investments and job offers. This energy can also offer us intimate connections and reveal the inherent beauty and joy of being alive.

Uranus is Conjunct the North Node

This is an aspect that will bring change. Uranus is never subtle, and the extent and manner of its impact is not predictable. Everything is up for being rearranged and reconfigured! Why?  Because Uranus is an iconoclast; its mission is to not just stir the pot, but to break it. We can expect that its conjunction to the North Node is going to create discomfort. The North Node pulls us into the future we have been creating with our actions past and present. On the individual level, adjustments will happen, whether we think we need them or not, or want them, or not. We may also find that what we thought we needed was really more of a luxury item rather than a requirement for our sustainability. Uranus changes everything so much that instead of perceiving we have lost it all, we can also realize that we are now free to start over.

At the collective level, we will continue to see major shifts in the arenas of current controversy.  In the United States these include, but are not limited to, abortion rights, voting rights, the right to unionize, the right to a living wage, truth in information, and gun laws. As well, we are all affected at some level by the catastrophes of wildfires, drought, famine, flooding, and the current wars unjustly waged in many parts of the world, with the most publicized being the shocking invasion of Ukraine by Russia.  

In the United States, laws will be made to our detriment, or not.  We will continue to experience conflict before solutions are arrived at, as polarization in politics is not going away any time soon. Neither is inflation or the overall condition of our national economy. We can always hope that there will be improvement and relief because any potential the planets offer us can be positive or negative depending on the condition of collective consciousness. And perhaps most especially on the goals and visionary capacities of those who have the power to call the shots on the decisions that affect the rest of us. Bottom line, the common denominator for how and how far we evolve is dependent on our willingness to move out of conflict and willingly work together to create solutions that repair and heal, and that provide for and care for all life, everywhere. The direction that things take for the foreseeable future will be revealed over the course of this quarter and through the end of the year.

The Human Design Chart for Summer Solstice 2022

The Human Design chart for this Solstice is a Generator type with a 2/4 profile and the Incarnation Cross of the Vessel of Love.  The Cross of the Vessel of Love is in direct contrast to some of the difficulties of the Solstice astrology chart.  (Note: We are not concerned with location in the casting of this chart because the planets for this moment all fall in the same gates, regardless of longitude and latitude.)

An Incarnation Cross is comprised of the four gates occupied by the: 1) Personality Earth and 2) Sun, and the 3) Design Earth and 4) Sun.  Each of these four planets makes a unique configuration that creates a specific Incarnation Cross.  The Cross identifies the overarching purpose of the Human Design chart.  The 2022 Solstice Human Design has the Incarnation Cross of the Vessel of Love. This Cross is about the love of the Body, love of Spirit, love of Humanity, and love and appreciation of Self.

The four Gates of Cross of the Vessel of Love are the 46, the 25, the 15, and the 10.   In the 46 we have the love and appreciation of being in a human body so that we can give our spiritual purpose form and manifestation; in the 25 we remember that the reason we do anything is because of our reverence for, and gratitude to, Source; in the 15, we remember our love of humanity and our need for connection to community, and in the 10, we remember to love ourselves.  Human beings flourish when communities are built on love, which in practice means that we create societies that support everyone to thrive.  Each quarter we are reminded that this is always an option.

What do we know about the Generator?

In the words of Karen Curry Parker (KCP), the Generator is designed to dance responsively with life.  It is not the job of the Generator to figure things out, but to allow opportunities and experiences to show up and then follow the ones that feel good and correct. They are here to do the “work” of the world and build the new infrastructures that will support the sustainable and equitable approaches needed for a thriving civilization and planet.

The Quantum Purpose of the Generator, per KCP, is to physically manifest creativity and express through devotion.

This Solstice brings us the tireless capacity of the Generator to work on the structures for what support humanity, and to courageously attend to the work that needs to be done.

The 2/4 Profile, the Hermit Opportunist.  We all need time for unhurried isolation, for that is where we experience our deepest peace. Inside relaxation and silence we can explore, without interruption, our creativity and musings. We can re-connect to ourselves.  This profile is about the need to retreat to aloneness to find one’s inner guidance, and to integrate what we have gathered. And then it is time to return to connection, for that is where we thrive.

Defined Channels of the 2022 Summer Solstice Human Design Chart

In Human Design, we also look at the defined channels and the circuits they are part of, to understand the overall purpose of the chart.  There are four channels in the Solstice chart. (Channels are given their Quantum Human DesignTM names.)

    1. The Channel of Innovative Thinking, the 43-23

This channel is about the ability to think out of the box.  This energy is knowing, inventive, innovative, mutative, and imaginative. Here we have the capacity to push past assumptions about both the nature of a problem and how it may best be solved.  Transformative, unconventional thinking can come to the rescue.

    1. The Channel of Higher Purpose, the 25-51

This channel is also individual and mutative, and has the ability to see the higher purpose in something despite and because of disruptive conditions that cause one to look for their deeper meaning. This energy has the capacity to initiate us into understanding the riches inherent in unexpected turn of events, and it can also reveal how to mine those riches.

    1. The Channel of Progress, the 14-2

This mutative channel gives us the ability to respond to authentic opportunities to create life-sustaining resources. When we activate its potential for abundance we can support others as well.

    1. The Channel of Intimacy and Connection, the 19-49

This tribal channel is about creating intimate and emotional connections with others.  We are not meant to be alone. It is also sensitive to the needs of animals and the environment.

The Central Message of Summer Solstice 2022

This Solstice’s astrological energies include the ability to focus, work hard, and find responsible and enduring solutions to our issues.  We take ourselves seriously.  We take what is happening on the world stage seriously.  In addition, we recognize our need for personal well-being, including the courage to finally confront old wounds in order to heal them to the extent we can, and then to release them completely so that we have renewed strength and capacity to move forward.

This Solstice cycle we can expect deep change to occur because the tension and instability of polarization is ripe for implosion. The difficult and challenging conditions of national and global politics will give way to irrevocable changes, and whether those changes contribute to furthering chaos or to the beginnings of constructive dialogue and action that repairs, heals, and creates opportunities to thrive, is up to human beings.

The potential for a higher approach to the entrenched problems of our global civilization is inherent in the energies of the Human Design Solstice Chart.  The Incarnation Cross of the Vessel of Love offers an outpouring of profound compassion and consideration for the upleveling of all conditions that support life.  This Cross connects us to what we all have in common, and to the understanding that we are all connected through Source, through our beginnings.

The Generator aspect of this chart tells us that we have the energy and desire to work for solutions that create well-being for each one of us, and that includes all of us.  The defined channels in the Solstice chart offer us the ability to think transformatively and creatively to bring in needed solutions to our very challenging circumstances.  We are able to see through disruption to a higher purpose rather than giving in to despair, and we can find the resources that will assist us in creating what we need to bring renewal and abundance in the measures we need to provide lasting material support.

And the work that must be done at this time is to be done by working in ensembles as well as in larger communities where there is a shared vision.  We take our vision and values from the Cross of the Vessel of Love.  Of course, this is a choice, and though many of us are tired, we are still willing to commit to the long haul.

BRINGING YOUR DESIGN TO LIGHT

Twin, triplet, and quintuplet charts deepen our understanding of how Human Design manifests uniquely in real lives. Even with identical charts from the same birth moment, each individual expresses their Design differently. This unique expression is at the heart of Human Design’s value. Why does this happen? Keep reading!

Our Design, as defined by our unique Human Design chart, describes how our energy is meant to flow. It shows us our best tools for applying our energy, choosing appropriately, identifying our greatest strengths, and what we will be drawn to. The direction in which our energy flows is intended to show us where and how to carry out our life plan and soul purpose. That is because our energy naturally flows towards what we are supposed to be doing, being, and learning.

Our Design energies express themselves through our creativity, our relationships with others, our sense of place in the world, the kinds of vocations that interest us, and how we find meaning and fulfillment. In other words, our Design is the map that leads to the highest expression of our purpose. Above all, your Design is intended to serve your continuing evolution.

However, the Chart is not the Soul. Human Design offers a framework for understanding our energy, but core individuality goes beyond the chart. This distinction is essential to Human Design’s purpose: illuminating your unique expression rather than prescribing an identical outcome.

Although twin charts—whether fraternal or identical—share themes, each twin uniquely expresses them. Each person is born with a unique agenda or soul contract. We are all shaped by many influences beyond Human Design, including psychology, astrology, numerology, sociology, genetics, and upbringing, to name a few. Even twins in the same family have different perceptions. Each part of the Human Design chart has a range of expression, from reactive (lacking awareness) to aware (understanding responses and their impact). Everyone, consciously or not, chooses how to express their Design.

Most importantly, we each have a unique soul trajectory that describes where we’ve been and who we’ve been, including how we have treated others, how others have treated us, and how we may have impacted collective history, for good or ill.

Our soul history affects the purpose and direction of our current lives. In other words, the dharma, or life purpose, which we incarnated to express and explore, and the karma we came to restore (karma meaning the law of cause and effect, where past actions influence current experiences), is influenced by our previous lives. Karma is inevitable, as all actions must be brought to balance. Dharma is necessarily woven into the fabric of our lives.

This is because the direction of the Universe evolves towards higher consciousness. Higher consciousness is about unity; it is not about exclusion. Exclusion always results in imbalance, inequity, suffering, and the continuing creation of karma. The agreements or soul contracts we’ve made help us connect to our dharma and bring us to the karmas that seek resolution.

Your life is woven into a complex tapestry of evolutionary intentions, spanning from the personal to the collective. This field is nurtured inside the boundless consciousness of the Universe, which any one interpretative modality or combination cannot fully express. Its breadth appears immeasurable, its beginnings shrouded in mystery.

The bottom line with how any Design will express has everything to do with the Soul that took it on for that lifetime. Again, souls are at different stages in their evolution — we have different histories; some longer, some shorter. Some of us are younger souls, while others are older. All of these influence the unique goals (dharma) and different obligations (karma) for your life.

As you become more aware of who you are and what you came here to do, your discernment about what choices are correct for you also increases.  

This is why even those who share your exact Design will lead dramatically different lives—the soul’s uniqueness determines the lived expression of any chart, underscoring Human Design’s true power.

So, what does this reveal about Human Design’s value for self-discovery? Its power lies in helping you understand your unique soul’s purpose, despite identical Designs.

Because different people can be born with the same chart, does it render our Design meaningless? Does it mean we can’t use our Human Design to identify our uniqueness and purpose, and to help us anchor into that purpose? Of course not.

You give your Design its meaning and direction. Human Design is a tool; your soul determines its purpose in your life.

Your Design offers valuable information and points you in the right direction. It is up to you, the unique soul living that Design, to express it as you intend. You are more than your Human Design, but you can use it to find your path and purpose.

Even if you do not believe that the Soul creates intentions or has a trajectory shaped by previous lives, you are still driven by unique yearnings that compel you to create an authentic life.

I leave you with this: follow your Soul’s (or your authentic) intentions because therein lies the direction for your life.

  4. WHAT IS IN YOUR SOUL CONTRACT?

DOES MY HUMAN DESIGN CHART SAY

PART I
How smart I am?
If I’m pretty?
If I’ll be rich?
If I’m talented? (Oh, and which talents?)
If I find the love of my life?
What kind of profession I should go into?
What kind of personality I have?
Well? What does it say?
 
PART II
It teaches you how to live authentically and how to recognize and follow the natural flow of your personal energy and the energy of the world around you. In this way, you are working with your nature and can see where you’re going. This means that you are making choices and decisions that support your best self and your highest truth.
 
Wow, really?
 
PART III
Yes, and when you are being yourself, living authentically, you will feel brighter, prettier, and more talented. Additionally, when you’re content with your life and comfortable with who you are, you will attract your ideal companion. It’s a matter of frequency matching frequency. When you’re happy, your personality becomes even more attractive. And when you know who you are, your right vocation won’t be such a mystery. Getting your Human Design chart and having it read by a specialist is one of the best things you can do for yourself. Ever.
 
PART IV

 
Will getting my chart read change the world?

It’s a start! What validations did you receive from your reading? Do you feel more confident about your gifts and interests? If so, consider how you want to express and apply them to your world. Where can you exert your influence? Where do you want to exert your influence?
 
We all have free will, and others will do as they please, regardless of how much self-knowledge and integrity you have. Your fellow human beings will believe as they do and act on those beliefs, irrespective of how much you understand and accept yourself. But knowing who you are and understanding how you can contribute to uplifting the world, and then acting from that, is the beginning of changing the world for the better.
 
We live in a world where leaders often prioritize their own interests over those of the people they were elected to represent. We are currently experiencing economic and ecological crises, and many people lack access to the basic services that could significantly improve their lives.
 
Imagine what our world would be like if everyone lived from their authentic selves and took their rightful place as leaders of what they are truly called to be. Imagine what our world would be like if everyone were living from a desire to serve by using their gifts in the ways most appropriate for them.
 
This is exercising true power, and it is not selfish, and it is never about elevating yourself over others. It is about acknowledging that we each have a unique role to play, and those roles are interdependent, collaborative, and cooperative in nature.
 
Authentic leadership, that is, leadership that comes from a desire to do the right thing, creates equality and sustainability for all. This is why it is so vital that you know who you are and act in accordance with the specific mission the Universe gave you. Don’t worry about failing your mission. The Universe gave you all the right stuff to do and be who you came here to be and to do what you came here to do.
 
Considering how many people do not act from authentic leadership because they don’t know who they are, does it matter if I understand myself better through my chart?
 
It becomes even more critical for you to know yourself. As I indicated above, as long as we are unclear about our purpose, we will not be able to change the way things are, let alone ourselves. The amount of self-knowledge and self-acceptance you possess, and the strength of your conviction in your right to be here and live your life, will make all the difference for you and others. Continue to seek your destiny and engage with it as you find it. When you know who you are, you will also be clear on what you are supposed to be doing.
 
Take a ferocious stand for your life, no matter the circumstances, because it will make a difference, not just for your own life, but for the lives of others. Some of you have destinies that will take you to the front lines, while others will actively support those who are already there.
 
PART V

Does my Human Design Chart limit me in any way? Does it limit my potential for success?  
 
Your chart is a blueprint of the themes you are here to work with. Your unique bodygraph, with all its gates, channels, centers, and circuits, hums with potential. It is up to you to bring that potential to life.
 
You will not know what you are capable of until you try. The potential of your chart is revealed to the extent that you are willing to live it. You will come to know your potential when you commit to your life.

MONEY AND HUMAN DESIGN

 

When a client inquires about money, they are often in financial distress. They want to know what their design, astrology, or cards indicate regarding their future, their ability to earn or possess money, or when their hard times might end. Sometimes, they even wonder whether their situation is karmic—such as losing their job or facing eviction—or whether they made a poor decision that led to their current circumstances.

This brings us to a central question: As facilitators, consultants, counselors, guides, or mentors, can we truly provide definitive answers about money or destiny—either for our clients or for the world?

Having enough money means you have sufficient resources to meet your basic needs. It allows you to have a stable place to live without fear of eviction. You can pursue your education and earn degrees and certifications. You have the means to start your own business. With enough money, you can afford therapy, medical care, and other expert advice or interventions when needed. Additionally, having financial stability brings you respect and helps you avoid the blame often associated with poverty. Ultimately, having enough money can alleviate many forms of suffering caused by economic hardship and enable you to help others in need.

We can discuss the client’s soul curriculum as outlined in the chart’s defined parts. These consist of the consistent themes that we will primarily focus on, especially through our relationships and connections with others. These themes include money markers, health markers, markers for the right brain (sensing circuit) and left brain (logic circuit), markers for the individual circuit (both brain), relationship markers, markers indicating specific talents and interests, among others.

What if a client inquires about their ability to earn money, their financial destiny, or their capacity to make and receive money effortlessly, yet has only one official money marker — or none at all? Does this indicate that they are destined to be without money?

Do we, as facilitators, believe we can provide definitive answers to these questions for our clients or the world?

Questions about money, health, love and romance, career, and opportunities are natural because we are human. We ask these questions of each other, consult experts who offer services and hope, and seek answers from God or any invisible allies that may be listening. We inquire because we are mortal, and while breathing is essential for life, it isn’t enough to fulfill all our needs. However, it is a crucial starting point.

Questions about money are fundamentally questions of value and our worthiness to survive and thrive. These issues run deep, touching on our history, culture, and beliefs about who deserves what, who holds power, and who gained access to resources first. They are intertwined with perceptions of intelligence, beauty, and talent, as well as issues of gender and race. As individuals, we are called to forge our own paths to reach our goals and become who we are meant to be, utilizing what we have. However, unexpected challenges and others’ choices are bound to intervene in our journeys, exposing our blind spots.

How we interpret these interventions can go one of two ways: 1. We may see them as interference—unwanted and disruptive, leaving us feeling that our plans have been thwarted. Despite these setbacks, we seek to make the best of our situation because, ultimately, we want to live and achieve our potential. Yet we often find ourselves consumed by basic needs, such as hunger, and securing food can overshadow everything else until we are satisfied. 2. Alternatively, we might view the interference as a deliberate roadblock, perhaps one we unknowingly permitted, designed to test our resilience.

These challenges can help us discover our deeper resources and emerge wiser, albeit somewhat battered. In either case, our journey involves navigating these complexities on our way to wholeness.

None of us operates in isolation. We don’t live our lives on our own separate planets. Instead, we are part of a community—whether it’s a town, a city, a state, a nation, or the world. We constantly interact with one another. There are assumptions, expectations, traditions, outdated laws, and entrenched perspectives that resist change brought about by ideas such as equality, sustainability, and fairness.

Many jobs pay poorly, and countless people work in those positions. They face financial struggles that are often beyond their control, leading to issues of personal worthiness tied to circumstances they did not create. But who is in charge of maintaining such low minimum wages? It’s those who hold the power.

What can we say to those with limited opportunities about what their Human Design indicates, if it provides any insight at all? Additionally, how much influence do money markers truly have over people’s lives? The world is a vast place. I understand that many people are choosing not to return to these low-paying jobs, but it’s essential to be realistic and acknowledge that they cannot sustain this indefinitely. At some point, the need for economic support will become dire.

It’s not just about your Design. We all exist within a larger context that predates us and has deep roots. Some of us come from more comfortable backgrounds, and this has been the case for a long time. To fully realize the potential of your human design, certain conditions must be met. First and foremost, we need to ensure our basic security needs are met. We must also prioritize our health. Most importantly, we need to believe in ourselves and have a strong sense of our own value.

Many factors influence the flow of money, both on a universal scale and specifically in our individual lives. Ultimately, the area where we have the most control is over our mindset. We must refuse to surrender our destinies. I came to realize that I need to take a strong stand for my life, regardless of the circumstances—and especially because of them. Everything flows from this understanding. Photons, neutrinos, desire, passion, love, and the divine essence within us are influential creators—these are ours to harness.

I frequently reflect on the cards I’m holding. These cards will change over time as fortunate synchronicities and unfortunate events occur. As long as we are alive, something is always happening. We can expect the unexpected, along with routine interruptions and surprises. In the meantime, what we do with the cards we have at any point in our lives is crucial. Our choices in handling difficult circumstances will determine whether we stand firm or succumb to despair.

Once you start discussing the mechanics of the chart, your client will engage with you. They will elaborate on your words, inspired by the ideas you present. Your role is to create a space for this dialogue and guide the process. Listen actively, reflect on what you hear, and share a relevant story if it feels appropriate. Engage with the dynamic of the conversation and trust the insights that emerge. Pay attention to the themes that arise, as those often reveal the core issues that matter most to your client.

There is no formula for the perfect Human Design money conversation; individual circumstances guide these discussions. The inspiration and focus should stem from the client’s current needs. Your role is to support your client, and those intentions are always valid. Remember, you, your client, and all of us are made from the same fundamental essence. The implications of this are significant.

POSITIVE THINKING AND YOUR HUMAN DESIGN

Positive thinking can help bring out the best in your Human Design. When you are optimistic, it is easier to access your innate gifts.

A positive mindset clears emotions and keeps fear out of your decisions. It helps you see options and opportunities. When you are not weighed down by resentment or unfairness, it’s easier to access the gifts of your Human Design.

Optimism helps you succeed. While positive thinking can’t change your Soul Intentions or your Design, it can support them. Your optimism can’t create wealth, fame, or extraordinary talent, nor can it transform your appearance. However, it can help you become trustworthy and keep you on track to express your Design at its best. 

Your Soul Plan was Decided Ahead of Time. Your Human Design supports your Soul Plan. You arrive with a complex, interconnected Plan. You may make new agreements here; these can replace or supplement those that don’t manifest.

Becoming an author or speaker requires specific agreements and talents. You must inspire others and choose your words wisely. If you want to be a best-selling author or speaker because you are passionate and believe in justice, take some time for self-reflection. Check if you are designed for those platforms. Using your talents and following what calls you aligns your life with your Design and agreements.

When you use your gifts and your interests, you align with your Intentions and Design. Life is more complicated when you try to become someone you are not meant to be or when you lack the agreements that would help you. Agreements move you along: mentors, introductions, employers, and teachers. In arenas without established agreements or personal and professional strengths, you will struggle to gain recognition and support.

Follow the Unfolding of Your Soul Plan to See Where it Takes You. Over time, you discover your Plan. If you’re not interested in fame, it’s not a matter of laziness or failure; it’s a matter of personal preference. If your work doesn’t appeal to a broad audience, it may not be your mission, or it could mean you’re not meant for celebrity status.  

Please don’t assume that a humble life has no impact. Your unseen actions may support those with big missions. You may never know how many benefit from your words and deeds.

You will be happier being yourself, not chasing achievement for validation. Your Soul Plan doesn’t require grand gestures unless these are intended. How do you know if your life is “big” or “small”?

Follow Your Heart. Follow your passions and interests. Consider your resources—physical, emotional, and financial—and those who support your calling. Remember that rest and nourishment matter. Health supports what you do and helps you feel good about your life, even if you relax and enjoy your surroundings. Sometimes, inspiration strikes when you least expect it.

SUMMER SOLSTICE 2021 THROUGH THE LENS OF HUMAN DESIGN AND ASTROLOGY: A TIME TO PAUSE, REFLECT, AND RESET

Stonehenge at Summer Solstice

The Summer Solstice—occurring this year on June 20th—marks the day when the Sun is at its northernmost or southernmost arc along the celestial equator. This is the beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, but winter begins in the Southern Hemisphere. The sun is directly above the Tropic of Cancer in the North and makes the longest day of the year.  In the Southern Hemisphere, it is the shortest day and longest night.

Seasonal changes occur quarterly and their influence lasts until the next season’s ingress.  Even so, there are no solid demarcations with influences waning over time, similar to the way a radiant full moon eventually attenuates into darkness.

The Astrology of Summer Solstice 2021

On June 20, 2021, the Sun enters 0° Cancer at 11:32 PM Eastern Daylight Time.  I am using the location of Washington, D.C., as it is the Capital of the United States and as such, represents this country’s collective experience. 

Although Solstice planetary house placements in a chart will vary with  location, universally the astrology for this moment has extremely noteworthy conditions.  Not one, not two, but three planets—Mercury, Jupiter, and Neptune—are stationary.  What this means is that each one of these planets has slowed down considerably to change direction. Jupiter stations to go retrograde on the 20th, Mercury stations to go direct on the 22nd, and Neptune stations to go retrograde on June 25.

Stationary influences are felt four-five days out on either side of the station.  Therefore, we are looking at a Solstice that begins under the influence of the Mercury, Jupiter, and Neptune stations. This dynamic will continue at least into the Fall Equinox, as all energy formations are interconnected and overlay each other as they wax and wane.

A stationary planet has a somewhat different meaning than a retrograde planet. During a retrograde, we have the opportunity to review and reconsider thoughts and actions that we engaged in before the retrograde so that when the planet stations to go direct, we can take needed actions to amend and course-correct.  

When a planet’s velocity is at (or close to) 00° 00′, the planet is said to be stationary (or “stopped”) in its motion.  The symbolism of a stationary planet is like that of a guide who has stopped her journey with the express purpose of witnessing a particular event or person.  There is something both mystical and penetrating about the station.  This quality of witness is highly focused and stamps its unique energies into the event or person, encoding it with aspects of its own nature.  The station is a time for us to stop in our tracks, as it were, and witness with depth and deliberation what we truly need.  If we have taken detours from addressing our fundamental needs, from what our hearts really want to explore, and what our gifts really want to express, we can now reconnect to those.

Let’s Look at the Meaning of a Mercury Station

There is an additional dimension to consider with this particular Mercury station. Summer Solstice 2021’s stationary Mercury is aphelion, meaning that its orbit is at its farthest point from the Sun. This is a moderating influence for Mercury, known for its trickster tendencies. When it is closest to the Sun, Mercury is at perihelion and moves fast with [symbolic] impatience and a burning desire to release tension and make something happen. The trickster archetype is far more prominent at perihelion.

Stationary Mercury does not have the shrewdness or ambition of Mercury at normal “cruising” velocity or when it is perihelion.  When stationary, Mercury is more accommodating and diplomatic. Communication is more transparent, and agendas that take everyone into account are supported.

This Solstice’s Mercury has the ambitious ego of Mercury with the stationary’s sense of destiny moderated by the aphelion position. There is egotism but it’s modulated; there is partisanship but it’s tempered; there is passion, but it’s not that intense.  We still have the shrewdness and ambition of Mercury, but the obsessive fire is tempered, and at times that’s for the best. This is a more accommodating and diplomatic version of Mercury.  It is as if Mercury is masked. This configuration is more like the Mercury you read about in astrology books: curious, intelligent, efficient, and a little bit devoid of feeling. There is greater detachment with this aspect.  Still, even beneath these conditions (stationary + aphelion), Mercury’s core nature remains, and any skeletons that lurk in its closet are still there but quieted for now. 

What Does It Mean When Jupiter Stations?

Let’s review the essential meaning of astrological Jupiter. Jupiter’s qualities are warmth, friendliness, and an easy-going nature; it’s adventurous, has a drive for leadership, and enjoys networking. It desires to win friends and influence others.  Jupiter is an energy that feels very at home in groups and it wants to participate in all the good things that life offers.  It’s a big, wide, wonderful world, and Jupiter wants to experience as much of it as possible.

When Jupiter stations, its core qualities of expansion and connection contract.  Rather than sharing its wins with others, it tends to make itself into a hero, romanticizing its past, exaggerating its successes, and finding enemies for its failures.  It can turn both allies and enemies into larger-than-life figures and make daily struggles into events of historical proportion.  “Normal” Jupiter is already prominent energy, and when this energy is turned upside down, it can mythologize itself into a kind of lone ranger who is the only one fighting on behalf of justice.

At the station, Jupiter can have identity issues and as such, express volatility.  It can become obsessed with telling its story of winning over great odds to an audience that recognizes and appreciates its heroism. Instead of being content with having a unique role within a group, stationary Jupiter needs to be center stage to avoid social hierarchies.

Stationary Neptune

The astrological Neptune is a symbol of faraway realms.  It also represents intuition, psychic abilities, and inspiration from the higher realms. Compassion, spirituality, and empathy are high expressions of Neptune, but Neptune can also represent illusion and addiction.

Stationary Neptune is about the mythos of a collective—it could be local, it could be regional, and it could be national, or worldwide.  A mythos encapsulates the core ideology, including beliefs and values, which everyone in a particular community – families to countries to nations to the world – can embrace, and which imparts identity and belonging. There is a need to belong to a collective. It anchors communities into a sense of purpose and a meaningful relationship to their culture. Stationary Neptune also represents the ability to speak a universal language that everyone understands.  This is because when stationary, Neptune acts as a cultural conduit which is able to tap into energies that are floating in the air.  

Stationary Neptune longs for feelings and experiences that the current environment can’t provide, and so it seeks to create them through a collective experience.  It is interested in the broader culture, in social issues, cultural mores, writers, artists, musicians, politicians, but especially perhaps, in writers and musicians, which can provide the emotional tones and psychological depths that a purely intellectual view of life cannot.

The Saturn-Uranus Square

The astrology of Solstice 2021 also contains the mighty Saturn-Uranus square.  A square is  a 90° angle between planets.  Because both Saturn and Uranus are outer planets, they move slowly, which makes their effects powerful and lasting.  While their impact is personal, the changes they make to the collective are enduring.

This is an aspect of great tension, where the energies of the two planets assert their influence without cooperation or compromise.  Saturn-Uranus squares, and other mathematical aspects of tension, influence societal and personal change through creating instability, chaos, and upheaval, including wars, genocide, and economic recessions (to name a few) as worse case scenarios.  Civil unrest is also often accompanied by violence.  Historically, the changes that hard contacts between Saturn and Uranus bring will unfold over decades. (Note that hard aspects between Saturn and Pluto will have similar impacts). 

This happens when Saturn’s job to maintain the status quo overreaches, and works against the evolving needs of humanity.  Traditions,  systems, and rules are in place to ensure the safety and well-being of communities.  But when those traditions and the established way of doing things fail to keep pace with the real needs of groups and individuals, Uranus eventually intervenes to exert tremendous pressure that breaks the dynamics of prevailing sacred icons that are preventing meeting even the basic needs of a community. Undue restriction and oppression will eventually be brought down. There is tremendous pressure to overhaul unworkable structures and beliefs.  In my opinion, humanity doesn’t need to go to such extremes.  If we are keeping pace with the needs of our world, there is no need to resort to destructive tactics to return to balance.

The square began in February 2021 and is in effect the entire year, with exact aspects on February 17, June 14, and December 23. The square continues into 2022, finally separating on the second week of November 2022.  

Other Celestial Influences

Solstice 2021 is just coming out from under the influence of the May 26 total lunar eclipse at 5° Sagittarius 26.’  Lunar eclipses signal a time to declutter and let go of what did not come to fruition despite our efforts and to focus on what we need to bring in.

Mars opposes Pluto from about June 4th through June 8th. This aspect  repeats the signature tension of the intensity and confrontative issues of these times. Push and shove are one way to express these, but if we understand what these energies are telling us, mastery of their high expression can create transformative solutions.

On June 10, we have a Solar eclipse at 19° Gemini 47.’  Solar eclipses are times to be forward-looking and visionary—and it is necessary to wrap up the unfinished business brought to our awareness under the lunar eclipse before we can move forward freely.

The Full Moon is at 3° Capricorn 28′ on June 24.  The Sabian symbol keynote for 4° Capricorn is the ability to use natural resources and basic skills to achieve a group purpose.  We can achieve a great deal when we work cooperatively with a shared universal purpose.

In addition to the influences described, there is a dramatic Mars-Saturn opposition building up towards the end of June.  With Saturn stationing as Mars enters into opposition, the conflict between these two planets is intensified. At the same time, Mars squares Uranus, exerting additional pressure on the already tense Saturn-Uranus square, with Uranus at the apex of this configuration.  July 4 could turn out to be especially incendiary.  Mars’ square to Uranus begins to wane after the 4th, but tensions continue through the end of that week. This exacerbating influence will highlight the basis behind the conflicts of the Saturn-Uranus square occurring at this time in history.  The tension symbolized by this square is of course, worldwide, and it covers the entire territory of misappropriation of power and lack of planetary stewardship. Our individual and collective destinies are intertwined but that does not seem to be well understood.  Perhaps these transits will assist us to gain a deeper understanding of this.

Overview of the Central Energies of the Planets

Astrological Themes of the Stationaries: Mercury is more accommodating and diplomatic; Jupiter’s normally warm and expansive nature is in reverse. It is testy, having lost its sense of community and connection. Now it needs to be acknowledged as being special rather than being one of the crowd.  Neptune seeks a mythos that will address broader cultural and community issues where everyone can get behind a vision and a set of values that creates belonging and bonding.

Saturn-Uranus square: There is the conflict between adhering stubbornly to tradition for tradition’s sake and the need for radical adaptation to meet current needs.  Dramatic head-butting has the potential for violence.  Under this square, it is difficult to hear the other side.  The Mars-Saturn opposition aggravates the existing square, bringing the core issues to light where everyone can see them and even get a better idea of what is going on for them personally.

The overriding planetary themes center on discomfort and agitation.  Current values, rules, and infrastructures are failing to meet the needs of real people as well as the needs of an evolving civilization. At the same time, we are aware that if we can collectively agree to a vision that everyone can embrace (because its implementation will address everyone’s basic needs and create benefits for all), we can put an end to spinning our wheels.  Working together cooperatively we can achieve a great deal.  But will we do it?

The upside of so many stationary planetary influences is that we are given the opportunity to step back from business as usual.  We can take the time we need to re-evaluate the worthiness of our goals, their impact on ourselves and others. We have the time to make new intentions and create goals that are truly worthy of serving humanity.

The Human Design Chart for Summer Solstice 2021

The Human Design chart for this Solstice is a Manifesting Generator with a 2/4 profile and the incarnation cross of the Vessel of Love.  The Cross of the Vessel of Love, born of the architecture of celestial positions in specific gates, will soften the agitation of prevailing planetary energies, and in conjunction with the stationary period, give us pause from acting and induce a calmer frame of mind.

An Incarnation Cross is compromised of the Personality (Conscious) Earth and Sun, and the Design (Unconscious) Earth and Sun.  Each of these four planets occupies a gate, and the unique configuration of those gates creates a specific Cross.  Crosses identify our overarching purpose.  The Solstice chart has the Incarnation Cross of the Vessel of Love. This Cross is about the love of the body, love of Spirit, love of humanity, and self-love.

The four gates of Cross of the Vessel of Love are the 46, the 25, the 15, and the 10.   In the 46 we have the love and appreciation of being in a human body so that we can give our spiritual purpose form and manifestation; in the 25 we remember that the reason we do anything is because of our reverence for, and gratitude to, Source; in the 15, we remember our love of humanity and our need for connection to community, and in the 10, we remember to love ourselves.  The effect of these celestial events will be long-term; thus we continue to work on creating community.  Human beings will flourish when communities are built on love, which in practice means that we create societies that support each one to be able to thrive.  At each turning of the seasons we are reminded that this is still an option.

What do we know about the Manifesting Generator? 

The Manifesting Generators’ life purpose is about doing things over and over again in various ways so that they can achieve mastery and find the shortest path to doing anything.  They are here to do the “work” of the world and build the new infrastructures that will support the sustainable and equitable approaches needed for a thriving civilization and planet.  Manifesting Generators are designed to cut to the chase and find shortcuts and the most efficient ways to accomplish any goal.

The Quantum Purpose of the Manifesting Generator (per Karen Curry Parker) is to physically manifest creativity and speed up the quantum process and linear time. 

This Solstice (and beyond) we benefit greatly from the tireless and indomitable capacity of the Manifesting Generator to launch the foundation for what will support humanity, and to be able to address, at the same time, the many facets of the work that needs to be done.

The 2/4 Profile, the Hermit Opportunist.  We all need time for unhurried isolation, for that is where we experience our deepest peace. Inside relaxation and silence we can explore, without interruption, our creativity and musings. We can re-connect to ourselves.  This profile is about the need to retreat to aloneness to find one’s inner guidance, and to integrate what we have gathered. And then it is time to return to connection, for that is where we thrive.

The Solstice Sun is in Gate 15.  In the I Ching, on which Human Design is also based, it is known as the Gate of Humility. In the translation by Deng Ming-Dao in The Living I Ching, we are told that humility is akin to compassion “in the sense that true compassion means extending one’s energy and talents on behalf of others.” 

Humility is the corollary to compassion.  The I Ching tells us that humility exists only in the wake of arrogance.  And yet, not everyone chooses to step aside from arrogance and open their hearts to suffering, their own, and others.

What do the concerns of humility and compassion have to do with the Summer Solstice 2021 charts?  Pretty much everything, and here’s why. I don’t have to tell you that no matter what category you consider, what catalog or newspaper or newsletter or Instagram or Facebook post and so on, we are alerted in no uncertain terms that we face grim realities. The political and ecological challenges (some are breathtakingly steep) are enormous. Our congresspeople are slow to create legislative solutions. Grassroots environmental groups struggle for financing. I’m fairly certain that not all those who hold seats of power are aware of the vast or multitudinous quality and quantity of suffering. If they are, their bellies have gone cold and remembrances of passion to do the right thing are memories lost in the ideological annals and given over to expediency.  

The Central Message of This Season

The moment when the Sun enters Cancer in the tropical zodiac contains a tangled hierarchy of energies.  Some of these energies clash; some are friendly to each other.  Each has its arena of concern and its take on things.  Similarly, we are not all gathered together to do the right thing, and yet, there are enough of us that know what that is.  We can make a difference.  We can get the Titanic turned around.

Let’s review the prominent energies of the astrology of this time.  Three planets have come to a station.  The symbolism is impressive.  There is a major signpost telling us how to take advantage of what we are currently immersed in. To reiterate:

The symbolism of a stationary planet is like that of a guide who has stopped her journey with the express purpose of witnessing a particular event or person.  There is something both mystical and penetrating about the station.  This quality of witness is highly focused and stamps its unique energies into the event or person, encoding it with aspects of its own nature.  The station is a time for us to stop in our tracks as it were, and witness with depth and deliberation, what we truly need.  If we have taken detours from addressing our fundamental needs, from what our hearts really want to explore, and what our gifts really want to express, we can now reconnect to those.

Each of the stationary planets – Mercury, Jupiter, and Neptune, have their concerns. They are each uniquely gifted in navigating their territory.  Although some of these energies can be prickly and fussy and not always grounded or inclined to be of service, we can nevertheless take their core intelligence and use these to break new trails. Mercury is perceptive and strategic, Jupiter has sociability and courage, and Neptune is intuitive and compassionate.

Admittedly, there is more than enough conflict to go around with the current interactions of Saturn, Uranus, Mars, and Pluto.  We have all seen the ugly aftermath of releasing these energies through the path of least resistance.  But if we understand what these energies are telling us, we will also see that mastery of their high expression is what will lead to transformative solutions. Yes, I know; easy to say and hard to do.  However, we are not on our own, so let’s act like we believe this!

Although we may tremble, we are all called to be the guides who look deep into the well of the human condition and from its murk perceive what patterns need to be disrupted.  We may not know what the new process will be, but we have faith that the answers exist and that they will come.

The Cross of the Vessel of Love reminds us once again that we have the power —through our love for ourselves, for others, and for these bodies (without which we cannot make meaningful change)—to bring in the new patterns.  We are also reminded by this Cross that we are here to achieve mastery through courage and dedication and that unless we sit inside of compassion and humility, we will become arrogant and forget everything we knew about the right thing to do.

GAUQUELIN, THE SKEPTICS, AND THE ASTROLOGERS

by Patrick Jerome

In 1957, Michel Gauquelin published his first statistical study of astrology. Using horoscopes from thousands of French professionals, including athletes, actors, doctors, and scientists, he found measurable correlations between specific planetary placements and professional success. Gauquelin then replicated his results with German, Italian, Belgian, and Dutch professionals. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, his studies consistently produced statistically significant associations between certain planets and particular professions.

Gauquelin’s work approached a significant milestone in astrology, as validating astrology’s claims would represent a fundamental shift in long-held scientific perspectives.

Members of the Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal (CSICOP) understood this and were obsessed with disproving Gauquelin’s findings. Founded in April 1976 by 25 “humanist” university professors  and one magician—the Amazing Randi—the CSICOP’s stated goal was “to not reject on a priori grounds . . . any or all such claims, but rather to examine them openly, completely, objectively, and carefully.” 

While CSICOP’s stated intent was to conduct objective investigations, critics argue that the organization’s actions often focused on debunking paranormal claims, and Gauquelin’s research became a primary focus for scrutiny.

What is interesting is that Gauquelin himself had begun his work as a skeptic. Although he had loved astrology as a boy, making so many predictions that his classmates called him “Nostradamus,” when he entered the Sorbonne, he became ashamed of those interests. He staged elaborate tricks to make believers appear foolish. He once, for example, put an ad in a newspaper, “Get a free horoscope,” and then asked those who responded to rate how accurate the reading was. The overwhelming majority responded “very accurate” or “extremely accurate” when, in fact, every single person had received the same print-out, which was based on the birth information of a serial killer.

This approach mirrored some methods associated with CSICOP. Gauquelin stated that his initial goal in data collection was to test and evaluate astrological claims rigorously.

But unlike the leaders of the CSICOP, Gauquelin truly wanted to examine the facts ‘openly, completely, objectively, and carefully.‘ Even after he got results that contradicted his hypothesis, he dared to publish them. However, it must be made clear that Gauquelin did not prove the astrology you see in newspapers or astrology texts. He did not prove the validity of signs, houses, aspects, or other traditional techniques. Indeed, his tests of those factors were negative. What he proved was that, in the charts of prominent professionals, certain planets had either just risen or just culminated, depending upon which profession was being studied. This is where his findings validated tradition. Mars, the militant planet, was prominent in the charts of athletes and military leaders. Jovial Jupiter was prominent in the charts of actors and politicians. Sober Saturn was prominent in the charts of doctors and scientists. The profound congruence of all this was one reason why the CSICOP was so intent upon crushing him. In the mid-1970s, they issued Gauquelin a ‘challenge.’ 

The Challenge was a classic control experiment: isolate the sports ability variable by comparing the Mars horoscopic positions of the champions Gauquelin had already collected vs. the Mars horoscopic positions of all other persons (non-sports champions)—the “control” group—born about the same time and place as the champions. If the control group exhibits the same hit-rate (a “hit”: being born when Mars resides in celestial Sector 1 or 4) as the champions, 22 percent, then clearly sports ability has nothing to do with the Mars Effect, which is thus revealed as merely a by-product of purely natural influences. This is what the top CSICOPs expected to happen. 

However, when the results contradicted expectations, the subsequent handling of the data by CSICOP became a source of controversy. Although initial plans included publication of all results, some members expressed concern over how the findings were communicated, with member Dennis Rawlins publishing a critical analysis. 

Some astrologers, including Dane Rudyar, were critical of Gauquelin’s work, primarily because while Gauquelin’s research supported a new approach—sometimes called “neo-astrology”—it did not find evidence for traditional astrological concepts. This led to differing responses within the astrological community.

Rudyar represented a traditionalist perspective, contrasting with the views of skeptics, both of whom interpreted Gauquelin’s findings through their preferred frameworks.

Proving astrology is tantamount to proving the existence of God.

The skeptics didn’t want God to exist. This is why they attacked Gauquelin so ferociously. What Rudyar failed to grasp was that astrology had won. It wasn’t his brand of astrology, but it had won. This meant astrologers were under a moral obligation to restructure their tenets, taking the new information into account. That’s how science works. You have a hypothesis, experiment, and adjust your description of reality based on the results. But astrology didn’t do this—there was no adjustment. Gauquelin had proven a particular kind of astrology, but most astrologers continued to practice the old, discredited kind.

And it wasn’t just old school apologists like Rudyar. It was everyone. Even the great scholar Robert Hand, the “Francis Bacon of astrology,” who had written that Gauquelin’s findings are “one of the strongest threats to mechanist-materialism in existence,” continued to use interpretations that fly in the face of reality. Here is Hand’s description of the 12th house:

The Twelfth House [signifies]. . . things like “self-undoing,” imprisonment, secrets in general, secret enemies, seclusion, and generally being withdrawn from the world, and it is usually regarded as being one of the worst houses in the chart.

However, those familiar with Gauquelin’s research note that the 12th house (and the 9th) appears as prominent placements in distinguished horoscopes, contrary to traditional views. Even recognized experts, such as Robert Hand, who acknowledged Gauquelin’s work, continued to reference traditional interpretations.

And he isn’t alone. Here’s what four modern astrologers, from four different websites, have written about Mars in the 12th house:

DANA GERHART:  People with a 12th house Mars often have difficulty going after what they want.

THE ASTROLOGY PLACE: [Mars in 12th house people] find asserting themselves very difficult . . . The desire to put themselves first is lacking. . . . hide from confrontation . . . no reaction to conflict  . . .

ASTRO CHERRY: take all precautions to avoid confrontation . . . unresponsive during conflict . . . experience trouble with force and assertion . . . lack the “me-first” desire.

CAFÉ ASTROLOGY: Energy stifled . . . afraid to assert themselves . . . defeated before they start.

If it sounds like these writers are imitating each other, it is probably because they are, but they are not just imitating each other; they are imitating the ideas of pretty much every astrologer in history, from Ptolemy to Dane Rudyar.

These interpretations differ significantly from the evidence provided by Gauquelin’s research.

In addition to his professional studies, Gauquelin conducted a series of keyword studies aimed at establishing a link between professional success and temperament. Here are the results for the 9th and 12th house Mars:

Professions showing High: Athletes, Military officers, Doctors, Businessmen

Professions showing Low:  Artists, writers, musicians.
Related keywords:  Active, ardent, belligerent, brave, combative, daring, dynamic, energetic, fearless, fighting, lively, offensive, reckless, spontaneous, strong-willed, stormy, tireless, tough, valiant, and full of vitality.

Think about it: the most aggressive professions show rates above chance, and the gentlest professions show rates below chance—precisely the opposite of what tradition says—and the keywords bring the point home. Here are the results in a schematic:

Keywords for 12th House Mars

Gauquelin findings Astrological tradition
Active, ardent, dynamic, energetic Energy stifled
Daring, Combative Hide from confrontation
Strong-willed Lack the me-first desire
The two lists could not be more opposite. It’s like a car company whose Research and Development team has invented a solar car made entirely from hemp. Yet, the sales department continues to push metal gas-guzzlers. Astrologers should be using the Gauquelin data and forsaking outmoded techniques—it’s the only way astrology can move forward. It’s frustrating to see even great astrologers give such abominable interpretations, but in all fairness, there are good reasons for this.

1. Astrologers see mainly people with problems. It is often asked, “How can astrologers be so stupid? Don’t they have any powers of perception? How can they take the most aggressive aspect and say it’s a symbol of passivity?”  First of all, it must be understood that most astrologers are counselors, most of their clients are unhappy, and unhappy people are generally unhappy because they can’t express their true selves. So, it’s quite possible that many Gauquelin Mars people do have “stifled energy” and are lacking in a “me-first attitude.” Still, it’s not because they have a 12th house Mars — it’s because they’re not expressing their 12th house Mars, and it’s the astrologer’s job to help them find their inner warrior.

2. Astrology offers a psychologically satisfying view of human nature. Traditional astrology is fun, it’s elegant, it’s visionary, it’s rich with symbolism, it provides a complete view of human nature; it draws on traditions that go back thousands of years, and once you’ve learned the symbols, you can apply them in an infinite number of ways. What’s more, you can read astrology books, attend astrology conferences, talk shop with other astrologers, and become part of a fascinating new world. Astrologers are friendly people. They’re fun to be around. And once you’ve experienced the brotherhood, it’s challenging to let it go.

3. The Gauquelin data are not presented in an accessible way. Astrologers want to read charts, and when they encounter something new, they immediately seek ways to apply it, but that wasn’t Gauquelin’s orientation. He presented his findings in scientific language. He could never have defeated the skeptics if he had talked like Dane Rudyar, but although it’s nice to know that many athletes have Gauquelin Mars, what possible use is that information to a client who is overweight, hates sports, and has just had a knee operation? Yes, Gauquelin’s findings are inspiring, but they are not helpful.  Many intelligent astrologers would welcome interpretations based on Gauquelin if they existed.

Astrology is not a science. It could be. It should be. It can be studied in the same way sociology and psychology are studied, but it’s much more significant than sociology or psychology, because the implications are so much greater. Sociology and psychology involve the study of groups within the world, but if astrology is true, it means that human life is not limited to the physical world. We aren’t just a conglomeration of atoms and molecules; we are spiritual beings influenced by the stars, and looking at charts, if we look correctly, is like looking at God’s plan for the creation.

But we must look correctly. When tradition is wrong, we must discard tradition without regret, and when we get a glimpse of the truth, as Gauquelin did, we must dig like badgers to get to the bottom of it. The Gauquelin data is not the final answer. However, we must stop dispensing interpretations that contradict the facts. It’s not just thick-headed; it’s counter-evolutionary. It’s a failure to acknowledge our role in the creation.

[2] One science professor, upon evaluating Gauquelin’s “Mars factor,” was heard to remark, “He has certainly proved his point, but I wish it were Venus.”  He meant this: The statistical validity of the Gauquelin data, although certainly compelling, represents only half its power. The other half comes from its eerie resonance with ancient symbolism—not the symbolism of the houses (which has been categorically refuted) but of the planets. Indeed, the data are making two statements: one, that astrology is statistically valid; and two, that those statistics are in accord with symbols that have been in use since before the birth of Christ. Gauquelin’s astrology is undoubtedly modern, but it has echoes of the ancient, which makes it that much more frightening to skeptics.

[4] It’s weird how history becomes distorted—and it makes you wonder who is doing the distorting—because when I looked up Dennis Rawlins on Wikipedia, his brief write-up contained this sentence: “In 1976, as the only astronomer on the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry, he looked into and debunked the so-called Mars effect.”  This is, in fact, the exact opposite of what happened. Rawlins did not debunk the Mars effect; he upheld it and exposed the hypocrisy of the CSICOP members who pressured him to lie. Rawlins tells the story in great detail in “StarBaby,” which is listed in the bibliography of the Wikipedia article. However, the Wikipedia author clearly never read it, or, if they did, they chose to ignore it. Such blatant distortions can easily lead one to a paranoid worldview.  As Rawlins wrote in “starBaby:” “I USED to believe it was simply a figment of the National Enquirer’s weekly imagination that the Science Establishment would cover up evidence for the occult. But that was in the era B.C. — Before the Committee.  I refer to the “Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal” (CSICOP), of which I am a co-founder and on whose ruling Executive Council (generally called the Council) I served for some years.”

HUMAN DESIGN: WHAT IT CAN AND CAN’T TELL YOU

Human Design doesn’t explain everything about your life.
The bodygraph reveals your unique configuration of energies—how gates, channels, centers, and circuits interact to illustrate your energy flow and the themes of your life. A Human Design chart offers signposts for your purpose and serves as your personal map. But it doesn’t explain everything about your life—and it isn’t meant to.

Your Human Design chart won’t tell you the extent of your talent or discipline. It doesn’t reveal your appearance, intelligence, upbringing, health, or personal experiences. These are aspects that you bring to the table and are beyond what the chart is intended to reveal.

So, what does the Human Design chart reveal to me?
Your chart highlights personal themes—your gifts, challenges, and the flexibility of each theme in expression. Every part of the Human Design chart has a range within which it can express itself. Outside factors and personal choices influence how each theme unfolds. No one can predict precisely how you’ll express your chart.

We understand how our personal themes move us through their intensity and direction. These same themes have different effects on different people. It’s determined by your soul’s intentions and the agreements made before birth. Still, everyone can use their Design to grow and empower themselves to meet their unique life circumstances with the least resistance and most satisfaction.

The foundation every must have, regardless of theme, is vitality. If you lack it, consider whether your actions drain your energy or ignore your unique strengths. Living out of alignment with your chart leads to difficulty and exhaustion.

If you lack the energy or enthusiasm, don’t do it. I mean significant energy commitments; saying no when something feels wrong builds your body awareness, helping you recognize when to walk away from tasks that aren’t yours and are ultimately harmful.

No one can tell you why you have the life you have.

Why some lives are more complex and more difficult than others is unclear—karma, luck, or choice may play a role, alongside cultural and outside influences. We may never know how much is our own doing or the result of external interference. Still, some people face more challenges than others.

Regardless, we must address what’s in front of us. Maybe you understand why your life unfolded a certain way, or perhaps you don’t. The key is to use every experience to affirm, identify, and accept your gifts and path. Whether or not you chose everything, each event helps reveal what is truly yours—what to do, and where to be.

  1. HUMAN DESIGN: SAME CHART, DIFFERENT SOULS, PART III

CAN HUMAN DESIGN IDENTIFY YOUR RIGHT CAREER?


Some individuals have a strong sense of purpose, while for many others, clarity about the direction of their lives develops gradually, shaped by experiences and the passage of time. While we may have an inkling of our potential paths, cultural beliefs and societal conditioning often distract us and prevent us from discovering what we are truly meant to do.

We are all born into a moment in time that is rich with various layers and forms of energy—representing different aspects of consciousness—each of which exists in potential within us, waiting to be shaped and expressed as we navigate our lives. These diverse energies can either encourage our curiosity or present obstacles to it. Sometimes, our ability to pursue our curiosity is unhindered and even supported, while at other times, we face roadblocks on the path we wish to follow. 

Roadblocks and delays aren’t inherently negative; they can serve as valuable guidance, urging us to stay true to our values and to proceed with greater clarity and determination. Alternatively, they may cause us to pause and reconsider our choices, which can also be beneficial. Taking the time to reflect on our motivations and goals can help us determine whether our current path aligns with what we truly want to pursue.

We are all born with specific talents and interests. These guide and connect us to our unique path. Many people follow what excites them, even if they are unaware of their Human Design, astrology, or other systems that describe their unique nature.
 
Our Human Design chart guides and influences how we express ourselves, even if we are not consciously aware of the system. However, this guidance is often obscured by societal, familial, and educational expectations, which can override our natural instincts. Without proper information, education, and experience, achieving self-actualization becomes difficult. True alignment occurs when we can distinguish our internal direction from external pressures.
 
The Trusted Advisor plays a crucial role here: the Human Design Specialist’s responsibility is to guide clients toward their true selves. By building on the complexities and influences mentioned earlier, the Specialist engages in conversations that help clients reconnect with their own insights. This guidance enables clients to identify what is meaningful to them and to recognize the unique gifts they contribute to the collective.
 
Human Design offers valuable insights into our identities, but it does not determine our talents or career paths. This important knowledge stems from what we bring to our charts—our desires, experiences, and self-awareness. It emphasizes that self-discovery is essential for living in alignment with our design.
 
For instance, in the Incarnation Cross of the Sphinx 4, the Conscious Sun is located in Gate 1. The combination of the Sun and Gate 1 creates a powerful influence for self-expression, motivating individuals to discover their life mission. However, it does not explicitly define that mission for them. Identifying what inspires us to express ourselves unfolds through our experiences, helping us reveal our unique gifts, the areas we wish to explore, and, on the flip side, what we prefer to avoid. We can further deepen our understanding of our purpose through reflection and conversations with others. It is clear to me that our purpose is where we feel most at home with life.

HUMAN DESIGN: SAME CHART, DIFFERENT SOULS, PART III

In Part I (HUMAN DESIGN: SAME CHART, DIFFERENT SOULS, PART I), I offered my working reflections on how the same Human Design chart can express itself so differently in two different people. I examined the various aspects that different souls bring to their human design, including their soul trajectory, unique dharmas, karmas, and life purpose.

In Part II (HUMAN DESIGN: SAME CHART, DIFFERENT SOULS, PART II), I considered how different expressions can arise from the same definition.

In Part III below, I demonstrate how the twins’ design charts reveal their soul or life purpose, which is central to understanding why identical Human Design charts express themselves differently. Soul purpose and life purpose are, for my purposes, interchangeable. Human incarnation serves as a vehicle for the soul’s purpose, highlighting that the Human Design chart is not the soul itself.  

The Chart is not the Soul. Your Human Design is not your Soul.

To illustrate the main argument, it is crucial to understand that the chart is not the Soul: each Soul is fundamentally unique. While twin charts may share the same Human Design themes, those themes will always express differently, owing to each individual’s unique foundation and multiple influences such as psychology, astrology, numerology, and upbringing. Some of these influences are shared, but the soul remains the differentiating factor.

We each have a unique soul trajectory.

More importantly, our unique soul trajectory encompasses our history, experiences, and the impact we have on others, for good or ill. Dharma and karma come into play in this context.

Our soul history affects the purpose and direction of our current lives. In other words, dharma—defined here as your soul’s goals and purpose for this life that you incarnated to express and expand on—and karma—defined as what you came to resolve or restore based on prior actions—both influence each lifetime. The agreements we’ve made also direct our path and our purpose. All of these are part of what I refer to as the soul contract: the overall focus for our lives and a list of experiences and accomplishments we intend to achieve in this incarnation.

Human Design charts have flexibility in how they express

Even with identical charts, Human Design themes express differently because the soul’s intentions guide expression. Free will and personal sovereignty shape how gifts are used. The main argument is that the chart’s highest expression aligns with and supports the unique purpose determined by the soul.

Each part of the chart has themes that create a particular focus. The Soul chose these specific themes to guide them on their path and to fulfill their purpose. Therefore, our Design naturally guides us to seek out particular experiences and also helps us to express our unique desires and interests.

When searching for Life Purpose, the first thing to consider is your Human Design Type.

When searching for a life purpose, the first thing to consider is your Human Design Type. Each type has a different way of being in the world because the highest expression of a Type’s energy is directly tied to the strategy of that Type. In Human Design, strategy refers to the approach we use to make a decision that is correct for our Type. Strategy circumvents second-guessing oneself. (Second-guessing is to be avoided at all costs!) The twins in these essays are Generators, so we know that they have an overarching life purpose of finding the right work and mastering it. Family will also be very important. Generators are born to respond and see their right work in the context of connection with others. They are builders who contribute to the advancement of human civilization through their right work. Because they have sustainable energy, they are relied on to be actively engaged in working towards maintaining and building the infrastructures that support the well-being of humanity. However, the work that Generators engage in must honor their special interests and talents. They need to love their work and then dedicate themselves to fulfilling their calling. In this way, they derive deep personal satisfaction from their chosen vocation or from creating products, services, and information that others need and value.

We also look at the Profile for an indication of purpose.

We also look at the Profile for an indication of purpose. In Human Design, the Profile represents a combination of two numbers that describe a person’s character and life approach. The twins’ Profile is 2/4, known as the Hermit Opportunist. The primary focus of this Profile is balancing periods of connection with others and time for solitude. It describes a person who is drawn to working in groups but also requires alone time to recharge. This Profile is characterized by a natural talent that often requires others to recognize and acknowledge it. While there can be shyness or unawareness of their gifts (from the Hermit, line 2), line 4 (the Opportunist) requires close connections with friends or trusted associates. It is through these close personal networks that the 2/4 Profile finds its work opportunities and relationships. Ultimately, their purpose is to engage with the world by contributing to a specific, familiar community.

The Incarnation Cross is a significant indicator of life or soul purpose.
The name of the Incarnation Cross is not available on the chart image; however, it is the Right Angle Cross of Planning (4), one of the variations that this Cross expresses, depending on the quarter of the year. The Right Angle Cross of Planning is here to work with its correct community to support the needs of that community. This Cross can see the details that must be addressed (and not overlooked) to create a successful outcome with a particular project. To understand the focus of any Incarnation Cross, we look at the gate placements of its four points: the conscious and unconscious Sun, and the conscious and unconscious Earth. Respectively, these placements are in gates 9, 40, 16, and 37. The 40-37 is a channel focused on establishing sustainable agreements for the peaceful management of resources and energy. Gate 9 teaches us to prioritize our energy so we can stay focused and on task. At the same time, Gate 16 gives us enthusiasm for life and teaches us to hone that enthusiasm through preparation and study so that our creations can be successful.

The Moon, Chiron, and Neptune are also important indicators of life or soul purpose.

To gain a greater understanding of the life purpose, we also especially consider the gates the Moon is in, as well as the gate placements of Chiron and Neptune. In the twins’ charts, we see that the Moon is in gates 44 and 49. In gate 44, we can identify patterns that aren’t working and learn how to transform them so that our patterns align with our purpose. Our awareness of what’s possible shifts when we break free from the old patterns or paradigms that have kept us stuck in our thinking. In gate 49, there is a tendency to hold on too long to situations that don’t honor us, and at the same time, the gift of this gate is knowing when to let go. In letting go of what does not honor us, we recognize and honor our value, and make commitments that value who we are. The Moon in these charts refines the life purpose of working in community settings by enhancing the level of well-being within that community through identifying commitments to projects that directly support it.

Chiron in these charts is in gates 38 and 54. In gate 38, we can identify what’s worth committing to and fighting for. At gate 54, we serve as a conduit for divine inspiration, learning to wait for the right timing before taking action. Neptune is in gate 19, which enables the ability to sense the emotional needs of others and the community. We can see from the placements of Chiron that the overarching life purpose of working in a supportive and leadership capacity within a community is enhanced by the awareness of making the right commitments at the right time. Gate 19’s heightened sensitivity to the feelings and needs of others ensures that the community will receive the right kind of support for its continued sustainability.

Different professions for the twins

Despite identical charts, twins often tend toward different professions due to their unique personalities, inclinations, and soul histories. This diversity strongly supports the main argument: souls come with pre-existing talents, interests, and backgrounds that determine how a chart’s themes and purpose are expressed. Each twin’s evolving path affirms the Human Design chart’s flexibility while upholding its foundational themes.

What we can deduce about the life purpose of the twins is that they will want to be involved with specific communities —communities that feel like home to them and recognize their unique gifts —where they will find fulfillment and meaning in the work they do. This is where they can contribute their unique skills and talents in ways that demonstrably raise the capacity of their communities to experience well-being and sustainability.

In summary, to identify the life or soul purpose in the chart, we examine the Type, Profile, and the Incarnation Cross. We give special consideration to the gates the Moon is in, as well as the gates for Chiron and Neptune. To be sure, every planet in its gate also influences the purpose of a particular Design, but I’ve touched on the most important markers for life purpose.

A reading of life or soul purpose would include all attributes of the Human Design Chart, including the open places. While definition focuses us, those places that lack definition invite us to experience a range of expression or what’s possible for that gate, channel, or center. Also, a thorough review of the chart requires consideration of an individual’s unique talents and interests. Our purpose unfolds when we fully utilize the gifts that we were given, applying those according to the Type and Strategy of our Human Design, and also incorporating the themes of the chart to refine and focus our purpose.

Again, the bottom line in how any Human Design chart will express has everything to do with the Soul that took it on for that lifetime. Souls come in with different agendas. We have specific goals (dharmas) and obligations (karmas). The more we become aware of what we came here to do, the greater access we have to the wisdom and gifts of our Design.

IN THESE TIMES

We are all of us living through catastrophic changes. *

Although there is much that is uncertain and terrifying, we also have the opportunity to reflect on what is truly important and listen to what our hearts are telling us.

In this time of great uncertainty, significant change, and enormous challenge, we can still create a new life with new habits and remain open to new possibilities. Now is the time to express the truth in our hearts and begin to organize our lives around bringing in what is most needed and desired. What we most need and desire. This is a good time to imagine new dreams about where you want to be and what you want to do. Our job is to actively and fearlessly dream.

Not everything is yours to do or belongs to you. You are designed for certain things, and you came into this world with a specific agenda and purpose (dharma) for your life. It is this dharma that will help you identify what you are here to do and give, even now, as we shift. Even if we didn’t see this coming, and didn’t plan for it. Here’s some good news: how you live your life and fulfill your dharma is very flexible and adaptable.

No one would deny that the shift we’re in is gigantic. We are being drawn towards the Solar Plexus Mutation of 2027, when the Human Design bodygraph will be reconfigured, establishing a new energetic platform. This new platform lays a much-needed foundation for the advancement of human civilization, offering new opportunities to draw upon the values, vision, and strategies that will support life going forward.

2020 is deeply distinguished by the Capricorn Council of Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto, of which the Saturn-Pluto conjunction, a celestial phenomenon that happens every 35 to 38 years, but only once every 500 years in Capricorn, has come together not just once, but multiple times. Each time a conjunction repeats, the energy it brings to the material plane becomes increasingly grounded, adding nuance and increasing the likelihood of a positive outcome.

The key to navigating this transition is to recognize that aspects of what we are undergoing are part of a larger natural cycle and to surrender to it. The unnatural part, which was created through ignorance and neglect, can be healed when we turn away from separation and have compassion for our great mistakes. We are in new and scary territory, but having crossed that threshold, we must leave behind and renounce what does not serve or belong to us. It is not easy, but it can be done. We already have the map and the compass to guide us.

All transitions come with an ending, and the endings we are living are supra-normal and overwhelming. During this time of disorientation and despair, a new beginning will emerge. That is inevitable. What that looks like depends on us. Let us be patient and kind to one another.   We cannot force the outcome, and we do not know the outcome, but we do know this: the shape of the outcome will be determined by what we choose and how we choose it.

These many endings are fraught with grief and confusion. Despite the many things we’ve had to let go of and the many deaths we’ve experienced, both symbolically and literally, we can still hold onto this truth: with every ending, there is a new beginning.    

With every new beginning, an opportunity follows. Hints of the new direction may not be immediately apparent. They are often subtle and initially come with only an inner knowing. Nevertheless, it is essential to understand what is emerging within and flow with it until we know what is required of us.

Many of us feel powerless to effect much change. Very few of us came into this world with an agenda to be a world leader, with a powerful platform to create change. What is essential is to mind our relationship with the global community and to work locally from our base.   We can bloom where we are planted by minding our soul contract.

Your ability to be and do what is needed is inherent in your soul contract. No matter the disappointment or the terrible, unexpected events that force us to throw out our routines and re-invent ourselves, we still have important cards to play. We still have access to our very own super-powers. They are the contents of our soul contract.

I want to remind everyone that our soul contract is the most sacred thing we possess. It houses the blueprint of our talents and our yearnings. Our yearnings will inevitably lead us to our right experiences, places, and people. Your soul contract contains the precious seeds of who you can become.

These words are not intended to make you believe that things are not as bad as they are. These words are to remind you that you were created for particular experiences and a purpose that has many layers, some of which are mysterious.  You also have access to a great deal of creativity; there is more than one way to express what you carry in your soul.

This is where your power is! The more you allow the rich content of your contract to express, the more passion you will feel for creating your life. Your soul contract completely supports your Design. And if you work with your Design, you will be supported to develop your most fulfilling life.

Your job for these times, according to your Human Design Type:

Manifesting Generators, we need you to apply your tireless reserves of energy and creativity to find the solutions that will save humanity, and to identify the shortcuts that will speed up the process for finding our best outcomes; Generators, we need your devotion to life force, and we need your tireless reserves of energy and creativity to build the new safe spaces;  Manifestors, we need you to show us how to stretch the boundaries of what’s possible for the human story through your courageous initiating; Projectors, we need you to hold the energy template of what needs to be created and to clear the vibration of collective fear, and Reflectors, we need you to identify those habits and practices that no longer support the advancement of humanity, and transmute them so that you can reflect what is possible when we come from a higher consciousness.

Have patience and trust your process. Let the process lead you. Be guided by your feelings, by your intuition, and by the synchronicities that magically appear to show you the way. Do not commit to projects that do not appeal to you. Embrace what feels right for you and shun what feels like an obligation. This is not the time to feel obligated or guilty. This is the time to take your gifts and expand them to the levels where they can meet the needs of these times. Walk without fear and bring your friends, your sense of adventure and curiosity, and most especially, your love for life and all things living, with you.

*In 2025, the changes we are living through are much beyond what most of us foresaw or expected. Here, the unexpected has assumed a role that is incomprehensible in its magnitude and impact. Catastrophic events are overwhelming, yet we must still attend to the tasks we have been given and will continue to receive. We are responsible for taking care of what is ours to care for. Stay open and curious for the information and connections that will revitalize you. Bravery is called for in these times. Stay anchored to the truth, and be honest about the actions that are correct for you to take. Identify what is yours and yours to do, and remember to stay in your lane.

  1. RESILIENCY IN TOUGH TIMES: BREAKING THROUGH DESPAIR

JUNE SOLSTICE 2020 AND THE RING OF FIRE SOLAR ECLIPSE THROUGH THE LENS OF ASTROLOGY AND HUMAN DESIGN: THE GREAT RESET

What makes it June Solstice? The June solstice—occurring this year on the 20th—marks the day when the Sun is at its northernmost or southernmost arc along the celestial equator. The June solstice is the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere and the winter solstice in the Southern Hemisphere. The sun is directly above the Tropic of Cancer in the North and makes the longest day of the year.  In the Southern Hemisphere, it is midwinter—the shortest day and longest night. 

The Astrology of Summer (June) Solstice 2020

On June 20, 2020, the Sun entered 0 degrees Cancer at 5:43 PM Eastern Daylight Time.  I am using the location of Washington, D.C., as it is the capital of the United States, and as such represents this country’s collective experience.  Let’s take a look at the symbolism of this hour of the day.  At 5:43 PM Eastern Time, the Sun and Venus were in the third quadrant (houses 7, 8, and 9). The Sun is in the third quadrant between noon and sunset.  At this time of day there isn’t as much enthusiasm to get things done as there was in the morning.  It becomes harder to concentrate on being productive.  We need a change of pace.

The symbolism of the setting sun.  The Sun is no longer at its zenith, and there is an urge to re-evaluate agreements that were made from a different state of mind in different conditions where it seemed reasonable to go about business as usual.  There is also an ‘energy’ of restlessness urging us to shake things up and take a break from business as usual.  We may not feel as committed or driven to “get it done.”  Sometimes we seek change for the sake of change, but radical philosophies and insights that question prevailing norms can also be born inside of this energy.  A good way to  expand our thinking and inspire solutions that are off the beaten path is to give ourselves permission to play with ideas that push social and intellectual boundaries. While we may not agree with everything about the devil’s advocate stance we’re trying on, it can be mind-opening to do so.  This role-playing can be helpful for getting clear on who you are and what you want, regardless of what others think. 

The Astrology of the ‘Ring of  Fire’ Annual Solar Eclipse 2020

This year, a rare event takes place — an Annual Solar Eclipse occurs at 2:41 AM EDT, just 9 hours after the Solstice.  A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun, blocking sunlight on Earth. This solar eclipse won’t be total; instead, a magnificent annular ‘ring of fire’ will be visible around the Moon. (“Annulus” means “little ring” in Latin.)  An annular solar eclipse that falls on the summer solstice won’t happen again until June 21, 2039.  The last time was in the summer of 1982.  This year the Sun will line up perfectly with the Moon’s orbit and the Eclipse will last for around 3 hours, 20 minutes.  

I am again using the location of Washington, D.C. to create the horoscope for this Solar Eclipse.  At 2:41 AM EDT, the Sun is between midnight and sunrise.  This is a time when the village is dark and most of the world is asleep. There is a special social atmosphere surrounding the sleeper.  How safe do they feel?  How secure?  If they are a child, they need to feel protected from the monsters of the night.  If they are an adult, they need to be able to turn off their conscious mind, forget their problems, and trust.  Whether child or adult, they cannot be worried about burglars.  To sleep well, they must feel safe in their physical and psychological surroundings.  They must feel they are among people they trust who will not harm them while they sleep.

The symbolism is about creating safe communities that are insulated from the dangers of the night.  Consider also the significance that the Solstice and Eclipse Sun is in the sign of Cancer, the sign of home, roots, and community. Our sense of community includes a belief that we are cared for by a benevolent consciousness, a Mother-Father-God who ensures the safety and well-being of her children.  To feel healthy, whole, strong and complete, a community must embrace a mythos — a lofty idea or high ideal.  This ideal is also often represented by a deity or religion. The ideal is always larger than each individual life, yet everyone can relate to it. Despite the diversity inside each community, everyone can get behind the same idea because the mythos holds and represents everyone’s highest ideals.  As an example, let’s look at a mythos of the United States.  Here, the population is widely diverse in creed, culture, and national origin; still, the mythos of ‘land of the free, land of equal opportunity’ is an ideal that millions can embrace.  We are still striving to bring that mythos into manifestation.

There are strong tribal impulses that create community — a belief in an over-lighting consciousness that holds the stories of humanity’s past and humanity’s dreams for the future.  The community must also work together if they are to create their dream for a sustainable way of life.  Life must be sustainable for everyone, or as history and recent events have shown, it is sustainable for no one.  There is calm, sanity, and truth in this acknowledgment. When the mythos finally becomes a universal reality, there will be nothing to rebel against as everyone is looked out for and their needs are met.   

The Annular Solar Eclipse Sun is conjunct the June Solstice Sun.  Solstice events are harbingers of what we can look forward to for the next quarter of the year, and the influence of an eclipse is said to begin six months before they occur, and six months after.  But this influence can begin earlier and last much longer! An eclipse is powerful because it catalyzes change, and keeps it going.  A solstice that takes place in tandem with an eclipse is given additional power and range of influence, and is also flavored by the nature of the eclipse.

These charts have noteworthy astrological conditions in common. In both the Solstice and Eclipse charts, Mercury and Neptune are stationary.  What this means is that each one of these planets is within a day or two of changing direction, with both Mercury and Neptune stationing to go retrograde.

A stationary planet has a somewhat different meaning than a retrograde planet. During a retrograde, a planet is symbolically reviewing and remaking territory that it has passed over and that it will pass over again as its motion turns direct.  When the motion to turn retrograde or direct is at its slowest velocity, the planet is said to be stationary, or stopped, in its motion.  The symbolism of a stationary planet is that of a silent witness who has stopped its journey with the express purpose of watching a particular person being born,  and for the rest of that person’s life, the planet takes a Godfather-like interest in them.  Something new is being born in our world culture, and we ourselves are bearing witness to it.

Stationary Neptune is about the mythos that an entire collective has in common — it could be local, it could be regional, and it could be national, or worldwide.  Stationary Neptune is about the need to belong to a collective where everyone shares a core ideology which connects and sustains everyone.  Stationery Neptune also represents the ability to speak a universal language that everyone understands.  Stationary Mercury does not have the shrewdness or fiery ambition of Mercury; the stationary is a more accommodating and diplomatic version. Communication with transparent agendas that take everyone into account is supported.

The Human Design Charts for June Solstice 2020 and the June 2020 Ring of Fire Solar Eclipse

This year the Human Design type for the June Solstice is a Manifestor.  Recall that the astrology for the Solstice is about expanding our thinking to initiate new ways of how we do things.  It has an energy of breaking away from conventional thought to bring in another perspective, one that can see beyond tradition.  Thus, the Manifestor type is the perfect archetypal representation of initiating a new way of behaving which can lead to breakthroughs.  The internal, non-verbal creativity of the Manifestor is directly connected to divine inspiration.  The influence of the Manifestor in the chart of this celestial event is to pioneer the way that breaks free of old patterns and takes down paradigms that do not support the nurture and advancement of human beings and human civilization.

The Human Design type for the June Annular Solar Eclipse is a Projector.  The astrological theme for the Eclipse centers on creating community and connection.  This theme is repeated in its Projector chart.  Projectors are here to guide and direct others and to serve in a leadership capacity. Because of their ability to read energy, they have unique insights and wisdom regarding how to best manage the flow of energy so that everyone benefits. It is the Projector’s undefined Sacral that gives them the capacity to read the energy of others, in addition to the unique penetrative capacity of their aura.  But because they do not have a defined Sacral, the Projector does not have continuous access to energy.  However, this does not mean that Projectors are not energetically available to Life!  On the contrary, they need to be with the right people — those who value and honor their gifts — and their energy will flow and they can guide with vitality.  Again, the astrology for the Eclipse is about community and connection. 

Both the Solstice and Eclipse charts have the Channel of Awakening.  This Channel can organize people around ideas and concepts that are rooted in the energies of self-love and self-empowerment.  It can speak words that inspire the imagination to see what is possible when we change existing narratives, and teach us that it is possible to write a new narrative!  New words with new ideas can change the direction of people’s lives and the communities they belong to.  In its high expression, this Channel has the power to lift us to a higher awareness and expression of self-love. Self-love powers courage, confidence, and vitality.  It empowers us to be more than what we have been, and to bring our best efforts and ideas to strengthen our communities. However, as we have often seen, in its unbalanced expression, this Channel can become “The Verbal Gunslinger,” where language is used to disempower and hurt others.

Both the Solstice and Eclipse charts have the Cross of the Vessel of Love. Each Human Design chart has an Incarnation Cross, made up of the Personality (Conscious) Earth and Sun, and the Design (Unconscious) Earth and Sun.  Each of these four planetary points occupies a gate and a line. The unique configuration of the Conscious and Unconscious Sun and Earth placements creates a specific cross.  The Cross of the Vessel of Love is about the power of love to transform — everything. 

The four gates of Cross of the Vessel of Love are the 46, the 25, the 15, and the 10.   In the 46 we have the love and appreciation of being in a human body so that we can give our spiritual purpose form and manifestation; in the 25 we remember that the reason we do anything is because of our reverence for, and gratitude to, Source; in the 15, we remember our need for connection to community, and in the 10, we remember to love ourselves.  The effect of these celestial events will be long-term, thus we continue to work on creating community.  Human beings will flourish when all communities are built on love. 

What is being empowered with the conjunction of the events of this Solstice and Eclipse?  The Solstice energy brings a restlessness to change things up and to question the way things have always been done.  There is a desire for new thinking, born from the awareness that the traditions and structures and philosophies that keep those in place are no longer adequate.  And they are not just inadequate, but created from the belief that some people are better than others and this gives them a right to more resources and opportunities.  We are currently riding the eruption of a volatile and fiery drive to restructure ingrained perceptions to expand the parameters of what it really means to be a community.  A community looks out for each of its members, and everyone needs to be looked after!  The need to belong and to be part of something greater than oneself seeks to be reformed in thought, word, and deed.  The need to create a truly inclusive community is supported and represented in these celestial events.   A new mythos is being born, and the first clue to its coming manifestation is the great resetting heralded by this Solstice Eclipse.

GETTING BACK YOUR MOJO

Have you lost your mojo, your energy, passion, and sense of purpose in life? This feeling of emptiness and lack of excitement that you may be experiencing is often a sign of burnout—a state that touches every aspect of our being. Many of us face periods when nothing seems enjoyable, rewarding, or worthwhile. If you’re feeling stuck or disconnected, you’re not alone.

No mojo means you’re burned out. Burnout has multiple origins and affects every aspect of our being: we become physically tired, emotionally exhausted, unfocused, and spiritually depleted. When burned out, nothing appeals, and questioning your purpose is easy. Disconnection from meaning, purpose, and oneself can leave you feeling cut off from life.
Burnout can last for a brief period or persist for years. It can block your ability to see alternatives and find solutions to reclaim your life. This mindset convinces you there’s no way to turn things around, so why try?
Now that we’ve identified what burnout can look and feel like, let’s examine what might be behind it.

Causes of burnout:

      • Investing your energy in unfulfilling projects.
      • Committing to things without genuine interest or out of obligation.
      • Chasing a dream that may not be your dream.
      • Overdoing it and not enough rest.
      • Losing a loved one, including pets.
      • Did you move somewhere you didn’t want to be?
      • Did someone betray you?
      • Did you lose your job?
      • Do you secretly feel not good, talented, or smart enough?
      • Or not attractive enough?
      • Do you hide your feelings of inferiority with extra effort?
      • Is your food nourishing you?
      • Have circumstances changed suddenly and unexpectedly?
      • Have you forgiven yourself?
      • Have you forgiven?
      • When was the last time you saw beauty?
      • Have all the things you tried to get unstuck yielded zero results?
      • Have you given up on getting meaningful change?

Recognizing possible causes is the first step. Let’s talk about how you can move forward.

Take time to do some serious resting. Take a break from expectations about who you should be or what you should have accomplished. Pushing yourself now will only worsen burnout. Without clarity or focus, seeking solutions will exhaust you further and may seem pointless.

The dark seduction of burnout is believing there’s no hope or solution. Review your track record—remember when your talents benefited others. Much of what we think is important is superficial or untrue. Identify where these myths trap you. Free yourself. Walk away.  

Focus on rest. Nurture yourself with what brings you joy—nature, pets, music, poetry, or art. Tend to your basic needs and release pressure to feel better immediately. Patience is key; your desire for change is the crucial first step.

Commit to reclaiming your life. Despite difficulties, you remain in control and have the power to advocate for yourself. You are valuable as you are, and every decision should serve your best interests. Write yourself into a new story.

You can tune into your desires for the future. Let your choices serve the life you want, the way you want to look and feel, the people and experiences you seek. Be patient and kind to yourself. Many who survived the holocaust found comfort in memories and dreams of a better future.

Beyond rest, there are practical steps to help reignite your enthusiasm:

      • Put on music. Dance. Get your energy flowing again.  
      • There is something you’re passionate about. Reconnect with it!  
      • Believe in yourself. Choosing to do so will create your own personal movement.
      • Trust your intuition. Don’t second-guess yourself.
      • Focus on what is working, focus on your strengths. Focus on what makes you feel happy.
      • It’s okay not to know the outcome, the answers, or how you will get from here to there. Let your creativity unfold and lead the way.
      • Surround yourself with beauty. Yes, there is still beauty! Create beauty.
      • Could you write your story the way you want it to be?
      • Treat yourself with love and respect.
      • Get out of your head. Stop overthinking and second-guessing yourself.
      • Create rhythm and consistency in your life.
      • Enjoy being YOU.

You can reawaken your mojo by moving toward what calls you and taking small steps to feel alive again. Life holds enormous possibilities. While you are here, there is much to explore and enjoy. But first: rest, let go of demands and expectations, and surrender to life’s flow. There is another vision for you. When ready, take action and live as yourself.

After taking steps to recover your energy, go deeper: identify your core essential truth. It is indefatigable and primal, helping to get you moving.
Something endures at your core, unchanged by time or place. This is revealed when everything else is stripped away. Your life anchors in this truth—it is steadfast. Stay connected, and it will sustain you.  

What do you need to do to release, heal, and align to reconnect with your core essential truth?

It’s human to experience isolation, depression, and loss of hope or focus. This can happen when we ignore our needs or what’s around us. We often fall to rock bottom and must find a way back up. Many have fallen and recovered. Don’t see what happened as permanent. Every event is just a point in your life’s journey. As long as you say yes to life, more follows.

Even if your original plans fail, don’t give up. Your soul still finds ways to realize its agenda, even if the helpers and timing have changed. Because you have a purpose, the force behind it persists. Despite obstacles, your soul strives to create the experiences intended for you.

As long as you are alive, change will happen, and new opportunities will arise. Keep your heart open, and when a hand reaches out to pull you up, take it. Say YES to life!

YOUR POWER COMES FROM WHAT YOU WERE GIVEN

One of the most significant challenges with any system, including Human Design, is the vocabulary and jargon used to describe its components. Often, this leads to important aspects being overlooked, and it is then up to the students of the system to ask questions that foster deeper reflection and greater honesty from the system.

Many Human Design students often feel disempowered and inferior based on the description of their type. In our society, the “doers”—comprising the energy types (Manifesting Generators, Generators, and Manifestors)—are often viewed as more important and powerful than the “be-ers,” or non-energy types, the Reflectors and Projectors. This perception, where tangible results of action are valued more highly than the invisible processes of insight, compassion, and imagination, can make Reflectors and Projectors feel like outcasts. However, it’s important to note that the belief in productivity being more valuable than process originates from broader societal views rather than the Human Design system itself.

Your Human Design type explains how your energy flows and interacts with others and the world around you. It represents your aura and the characteristics that arise from this energy flow. However, your Human Design does not encompass the entirety of who you are. It is just one perspective, one way to understand your psychological, physical, and even spiritual profile. We are made up of many different attributes, and no single system can fully describe us, as we draw from various sources. We are complex beings with multiple layers of complexity. When we refer to ourselves as a Reflector, Projector, or Generator, we are specifically talking about how our energy operates and what it requires to help us thrive.

To uncover the gifts you were born with, you need to explore your personal Human Design chart more deeply. It’s essential to remember that our Human Design chart does not solely define us; we possess many attributes that various systems can reveal.

Here’s a fascinating truth: who we are is our core consciousness, and that is our Soul. Our Soul is not part of any system or modality that we use to understand ourselves; instead, it utilizes those systems to help us know who we are and to keep us on our path — our life purpose, or our dharma. Our choice of Human Design type, astrology, and psychological profile, among others, orients us to behave in specific ways and to be interested in certain things. These attributes and profiles also equip us with the talents and aptitudes necessary to fulfill our purpose, guiding us in specific directions to achieve our goal.

Please don’t feel limited by your Type. Who you are meant to be and what you should focus on is guided by your Purpose, with your Type playing a supportive role. Your true power, like that of every Type, originates from your Soul—your core consciousness. You already have everything you need, including your Human Design, to create the life that is right for you. If any of us holds power, it is in fully utilizing all the tools and resources we have been given.

SPRING EQUINOX 2020 THROUGH THE LENS OF ASTROLOGY AND HUMAN DESIGN: EMBRACING LIFE AND OUR ENORMOUS CAPACITY TO CREATE WHAT WE NEED

What makes it Spring Equinox?  It’s the astronomical moment when the Sun crosses the celestial equator, moving from south to north.  Technically speaking, the equinox occurs when the sun is directly in line with the equator.  For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, it marks the beginning of spring, with daylight hours continuing to lengthen until the summer solstice in June.  For those south of the equator, it’s the beginning of autumn.

Spring Equinox is about new beginnings.  It is about new life.  It is a time to grow the dreams we planted as seeds at the Winter Solstice.  It is a time to not just remember, but to recapture the magic of life and being alive.  It is time to embrace the possibilities that only being alive can offer.  In this space of rich opportunity, we are called to be creative, and to create.  And at this time in our history, we are called to be innovative and patient.  We are being asked to let go of routine and normalcy.  Now we have the opportunity to permanently smash the old icons and paradigms that weren’t working anyway — those assumptions about how life should look, how it should be lived, not just individually, but collectively, as a society. As a world.

Our way of life has instructed us to be concerned with only ourselves and our loved ones.  We are supposed to take personal responsibility for lives, right?  But what is really going on here?  Could it be the insidious and silent inoperative myth of rugged individualism?  The individualism that says all you need to do to succeed is pull yourself up by your bootstraps and suck it up.

This thinking is deeply woven into the psyche of our civilization.  It is seductive because it presents itself as universal truth.  It insists that each individual is wholly responsible for his or her circumstances, good or bad. If misfortune befalls — if you lose your job, if you become ill, or some other life-disrupting misfortune occurs — it is up to you to bail yourself out.  You probably created it in the first place, so you need to take care of it without complaining or asking for help.  This is a culture that essentially says when you are facing a challenge, you’re on your own.  If you don’t have reserves or resources, it’s your fault.

This is the dark psychology that informs our social norms and that weaves itself into our waking lives.   There is the pervasive threat of punishment should we fail to keep our act together.  Loss of resources through unemployment, illness, or other ravages are all failures of own your making.

As a result of this pandemic that has come to us all we actually have a unique opportunity to look deeper at the structure of our society and acknowledge that the foundation this country has long stood on is that those that have will keep most of it and eventually take the rest, and those that don’t have, will get less and less.  We have a system that empowers those already in power, and those who do not have power (financial or political) have virtually no voice to make their needs and ideologies heard.  This was supposed to be a civilization where everyone had equal access to those things that ensure everyone thrives and can become their best selves, with talents maximized and contributions to others likewise enhanced.

But we know that’s not the case.  Maybe we haven’t wanted to believe it.  Maybe we can still point to enough examples of those who “made it” to convince ourselves to keep subscribing to the myth that opportunity and equal access (to: education, health care, financial well-being, right career, etc.) is universal.  But when millions of people and generations continue to flounder, we have to consider that our structures just might be woefully inadequate, and really don’t support equal opportunity, and do not actually meet the needs of the many.  How many homeless live among us?  How many have been unemployed for how long?  How many have no health care?  How many have no access to the education that could make a difference in their destiny?

It is time to get on with the business of re-building our civilization.  But how are we going to do this?

The Astrology of Spring Equinox 2020

On March 19, 2020, the Sun entered 0 degrees Aries at 11:50 PM Eastern Daylight Time.  I am using the location of Washington, D.C., as it is the capital of the United States, and as such represents this country’s collective experience.  Let’s take a look at the symbolism of this hour of the day.  At 11:50 PM Eastern Time, the Sun and Venus were in the second quadrant (houses 4,5, and 6). The Sun is in the second quadrant between sunset and midnight.  The symbolism of this time of day is that the official work day is done, and now your time is your own to do with as you please.  During this time, most people are with their families, or they’re out with their friends, or they’re playing music, reading a book, sitting around a campfire, or studying the stars.  It is a time when people are doing things that they like to do, that they want to do.  These are usually activities that bring them closer to their loved ones, things that make them laugh and weep, or give them a sense of wonder.

Because we are staying in place and practicing social distancing we may not be spending as much time with others.  But the energy of this time is about focusing on your creativity, on doing what lifts you up, on what engages your imagination and speaks to who you are.  The astrology of Spring Equinox 2020 tells us that this is the time to cultivate our gardens.  What do you want to grow?  What do you want your garden to look like?  This is the time to plant what we wish to harvest later this year.  What is that for you? What have you been wanting to make, to get your hands into?  There is time now to do many of the things that have been calling to you, that you’ve had to put off because of the endless routine of commitments that consensus workaday life demands of us.

The astrology of this Equinox also says this is a good time to focus, to practice a discipline and to quietly master a craft. It is time for quiet thinking and remembering who you are.  Now is a great time to process not just the current experience, but to allow other experiences that have been held back because of no time to reflect, to float up into your consciousness.  There are aspects of your life that have opportunity to be resolved now, without hurry.

Reflect on your history.  How did you get to where you are now? Where do you think you might want to go, now that things are different? The Equinox astrology also points to a desire to live more simply and to reconnect with self and with nature.  Now we can recover the many lost pieces of ourselves by taking the time to connect all aspects of our consciousness, from the physical to the emotional to the mental to the spiritual.

Through quietly rebuilding ourselves, we begin to rebuild civilization.  We have seen that we cannot rely on our elected leaders to include the needs of the collective in ways that are actually meaningful and that make a difference.  It is up to us to create new systems that subscribe to a different understanding, a new myth that says who our parents are doesn’t matter; that how much money we don’t have doesn’t matter; that our ancestry and genealogy don’t matter; that the country our people come from doesn’t matter; that the language we speak doesn’t matter; that the color of our skin doesn’t matter; that our gender preferences don’t matter; that how much education we have doesn’t matter; that our age doesn’t matter; that our looks don’t matter; that our religion doesn’t matter…that what matters is that we recognize we all come under the same exact inheritance. The Law of One applies to all.  Rebuilding who we are is clearly not an overnight process, but we have plenty of time to begin revisioning what we want our new civilization to look like.  And we have plenty of time to experiment, to practice, and to dream of what is possible, and to turn the old myths upside down.  It is time to demonstrate that an evolved civilization includes the needs and desires of the many.

The Human Design Chart for Spring Equinox 2020

This year the Human Design type for the Spring Equinox is a Generator with a 2/5 Profile and the Incarnation Cross of the Vessel of Love.  What do we know about the Generator? Generators are the people who provide continual power and life-force energy to the world.  These are the people with staying power. The Sacral Center in their body is the key to their power.  It creates the vital life-force energy required for action, for living life, and creating.

Generators have the capacity to persevere and work hard.  They have the life force energy and the psychology to hang in there and do it over until they reach mastery. True, they can get frustrated when they don’t see progress, but they have the innate ability to get back to it and hang in and not give up.  They enjoy committing long-term sustained effort to the right projects.  It is clear that Generator energy is what we need to keep us going and to get us through difficult times.

We are being gifted with the Generator capacity to dig in and find solutions to our current situation.  Life as we knew it is turned upside down, and we know that sustained effort will be required to find our way through this.  We will need to be creative and patient.  And it will take time to rid ourselves of the old ways of thinking about how to do things.  We will find our way through innovation, experimentation, and imagination.  Like the Generator, we need to learn to trust our gut and not override our actual response to a situation.  Our body has wisdom that our minds don’t.  And we will be successful when we understand that we all arrive at our destination together, or we don’t arrive at all.

The 2/5 Profile.  We all need to have time for quiet isolation, for that is where we experience our deepest peace.  Inside relaxation and silence, we can explore, without interruption, our creativity and musings.  We can re-connect to ourselves. The Profile for the Spring Equinox chart is the 2/5, the Hermit Heretic. This profile is about the need to retreat to aloneness to find one’s inner guidance, and to integrate what we have gathered.  There is a need in the 2/5 profile to intentionally build in alone time, for that is where regeneration occurs.  This is a time of going inward and gaining insight and coming back together to share our discoveries.

The Cross of the Vessel of Love. Each Human Design chart has an Incarnation Cross, made up of the Personality (Conscious) Earth and Sun, and the Design (Unconscious) Earth and Sun.  Each of these four planets occupies a gate and a line. The unique configuration of the Conscious and Unconscious Sun and Earth placements creates a specific cross, a cross that speaks to your purpose. This Spring Equinox has the Incarnation Cross of the Vessel of Love. This Cross is about the power of love to shatter what does not support life, to heal what is broken, and to restore balance in all the places that need them.  Spring Equinox 2020 is a big opportunity to remember that we are in this together.  Most of us are feeling this reality very deeply.  The flip side of this is that we can continue to live as though we are separate beings, taking what we need at the expense of letting others go without.

***********

The Solar Plexus Mutation is Upon Us

We are always inside of global cycles, and cycles within cycles, all the way to the cycles that impact each one of us personally.  We are living the astrology of our times.  We have had some powerful celestial events this year that include a Full Moon lunar eclipse on January 10, and on January 12, a Saturn-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn.  This last conjunction in Capricorn took place about 500 years ago.  Saturn and Pluto make a conjunction approximately every  34 years.  Saturn has a 29.5-year cycle, and Pluto takes 248 years to make one revolution around the Sun.

The Full Moon lunar eclipse took place at 20 degrees of Capricorn, with Sun and Mercury at 20 degrees Capricorn, and Saturn and Pluto at 22 degrees of Capricorn, within minutes of exact contact.  On January 12, Saturn and Pluto were exactly conjunct at 22 degrees of Capricorn, and the Sun was also at 22 degrees, with Mercury at 23 degrees. The Sun calls for new leadership and Mercury for transparent communication.

When Saturn and Pluto travel together, their influence challenges the prevailing paradigms around all structures generally, of our notion of norms and morés, of government, statehood, styles, and customs. There is always a breakdown (destruction) which is eventually followed by the creation of systems and structures that are in alignment with what is needed for civilization to thrive, as we understand it in those times.

These two planets, Pluto and Saturn, are karmic — when they show up, it is to address imbalance and injustice.  Their influence is inescapable and will be felt.

• In 1517, Martin Luther writes the Ninety-Five Theses challenging Roman Catholic clergy practices: Saturn and Pluto quickly coming to a conjunction in Capricorn

• World War I: Saturn and Pluto conjunct in Cancer

• World War II: Saturn square Pluto (Taurus-Leo)

We are currently under the influence of a powerful Saturn-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn. Structures and systems are breaking down. They have not been of universal service to all people, and now we see the myth of the rugged individualist exposed for what it is: a lie. You can pull yourself by all the straps and boots you want, but if you have no job, shelter, or opportunity for same, it doesn’t matter how many pairs of bootstraps you own. The truth is, bootstraps (synonym for available resources) are also a fiction.

How does the Human Design solar plexus mutation of 2027 fit into this conversation?  The Human Design chart of the mutation will have the Incarnation Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix.  We will have entered a new cycle of 400 years.  We are pulling out of the Cross of Planning where the concerns of humanity were very tribal and not as concerned with the needs of the collective.  The new gates for this Cross are 34, 20, 55, and 59. We are redefining power with Gate 34; we are changing the way we create, organizing around making and sharing sustainable resources with Gate 59; we are doing the work of compassion with Gate 55, seeing others as part of our extended family because we understand that we are all from the same Source; and in Gate 20 we acknowledge that each person has value and a unique contribution to make.

The new energetic platform is already here.  What is that platform?  It is about a new shift in consciousness, a shift that will open our awareness to our connection to each other, and to this planet and all its beings.   We have the possibility of creating a civilization that will support all life.  We can create a society where everyone’s needs are met.  As we know, meeting basic human needs is paramount to establishing justice.  Meeting basic human needs is paramount to creating peace as well as joy.  We must understand that it is imbalance that creates war, crime, and misery for all living beings.

Personal creativity and global problem-solving can increase by leaps and bounds if we open our hearts and recognize that we are not separate.  It is the belief that we have no responsibility for each other because we are separate and different that has created untold eons of grief and cruelties that never needed to happen.  The truth is that Universal Consciousness recognizes that we only exist in relation to others, and that others are part of our existence.  When we actively work from this truth, we will manifest our highest potential as human beings.   We have the opportunity now to do this.  To actually get started.   It will not be easy.  We will fumble and we will struggle to find the correct solutions, but we are not doing it alone.  We must not give up or pass over this opportunity.  It is time to run our best race ever!

THE QUEST FOR RIGHT VOCATION

Instead of struggling to identify a specific vocation, focus on what matters to you. What did you love to do as a child? You can look there for clues. What excites you? What feels adventurous? What makes you eager to start your day? These are hints to your vocation. Activities and topics you feel drawn to can highlight your next career. Follow your instincts, and your most fulfilling way of engaging with the world vocationally will follow.

•    What do you love to do? You want to enjoy your work, so think about activities that make you lose track of time.

•  Which specific activities or situations make you feel so happy and engaged that you lose track of your problems and time?

• What did you once love to do, but have essentially forgotten about or given up on because it didn’t work out at the time or simply made no sense? Or did you not receive much support for it? Revisit it. Re-engage it. These things, whatever they are, are yours. These are your gifts. They are to be used in service to others and for your own continuing development.

• What are you really good at? Again, what you’re good at is also what is fun and meaningful for you.

• What are you really passionate about? Where do your yearnings lead you? Your passion will get you over humps, writer’s block, self-doubt, waiting for an invitation, pretty much anything that rears its ugly little head and tries to talk you out of embracing your natural design. Or, put another way, your inclinations and your yearnings.

• What are you passionate about sharing or teaching others? If you don’t think these points point to your vocation, think again.

• What have you acquired much knowledge in just because you enjoyed going there? In other words, what have you really been training for all your life?

• What are you really good at? Take stock here. What you’re good at is more than a hint of where you should put your time, energy, and attention. What vocations does this translate to?

Having said the above things, consider whether your passions and yearnings best express themselves through a single vocation. Or even as a standard, conventional vocation.

We have been enculturated to believe that one’s talents and passions can best be expressed — or only expressed — through a particular vocation. That may not be the case for you. You may not be here to do “normal” or conventional work or specialize in just one area. Maybe you are here to explore, experiment, and do many things! Your passions and talents will likely connect naturally to several types of vocations or careers. Still, it is best to steer clear of thinking that what is out there in the ordinary workaday world will necessarily be your perfect match. What is important is that you put your attention and energy into what calls you. Follow that, and you will make the ‘career’ connections you need. In other words, you can find the right path for your gifts.

Understand that it is not uncommon that what you do for a living does not always require or ask for the highest expression of your gifts. Your official job may not be as fulfilling for you as a “hobby” in which you find a lot of joy, and where others also benefit. Our way of thinking is that what we do for a living should align with what brings us the most joy and where we have the most significant impact. This is actually not true; in real life, such jobs are not always easy to obtain, although it may work out that way. What is important is that you create the space to use your gifts, even if you are also working a regular job. In this way, you continue to cultivate your unique presence in the world, and most importantly, be your most effective self. You will also have the peace that comes with knowing you are being and doing all you can.

WINTER SOLSTICE 2019 THROUGH THE LENS OF ASTROLOGY AND HUMAN DESIGN: HONOR WHO YOU WERE AND WHO YOU ARE BECOMING

What Makes it Winter Solstice?

What is the magic that creates the Winter Solstice? It’s the astronomical moment when the Sun enters the Tropic of Capricorn. In the Northern Hemisphere, this is the moment in the year when we have the shortest day and the longest night. The Solstice marks the official start of winter. Because of the angle of the earth’s tilt, the Sun appears to stand completely still during the Winter Solstice. The word “solstice” comes from two Latin words: sol, meaning “sun,” and sistere, meaning “to stand still.” Winter is the season of standing still, of going within.

The Winter Solstice is a time for contemplation. It is time to get quiet and go within. It is time to enter the silence and be still. It is time to enter, both metaphorically and literally, the darkness that nurtures deep and restful sleep. In this space of silence and stillness you can dream. What do you truly care about, what calls to you? What do you want your life to look like? What is the work that you are to be about? Allow the answers to unfold in their own time, without expectations or demands.

The Winter Solstice is an excellent time to review the year. Giving yourself the space to reflect, without judgment, leads to energetic re-balancing and renewal. It is from this space of quiet that we can release what has made us tired and worn us down, and what is no longer ours to do. At this time we do well to allow the quiet gathering of all the pieces that will bring in new life to come. Now we review what needs to be released, healed, aligned, and brought to our attention, so that we can deliver our purpose to our right places and right people.

How long do we remain in quiet contemplation? On December 25th, the Sun appears to start moving again, symbolizing that letting go and re-visioning is a process begun in stillness, and one that evolves over time, in the same way that light begins its return. This re-visioning and evolution is unique to you, to your internal timing. The light of insight and ideas increases gradually as the days increase in length, as the Sun takes up more and more of day. As the balance of dark and light tips, we move towards new life, increasing warmth, and the coming of Spring. If we are truly taking advantage of the meaning and symbolism of the Winter Solstice, we are also moving into a deeper understanding of our purpose, a purpose that we will nurture through the time of growing light.

The Astrology of Winter Solstice 2019: the Significance of the Time of Day

Time of Day. The Sun entered 0 degrees Capricorn at 11:20 PM Eastern Time. I am using as the location Washington, D.C., as it is the capital of the United States, and as such represents this country’s collective experience. Let’s take a look at the symbolism of this hour of the day. At 11:20 PM, Eastern Time, the Sun and Venus were in the second quadrant (houses 4,5, and 6). The Sun is in the second quadrant between sunset and midnight. During this time, most people are with their families, or they’re out with their friends, or they’re playing music, reading a book, sitting around a campfire, or studying the stars. It is a time when people are doing things that they like to do, that they want to do. These are usually activities that bring them closer to their loved ones, things that make them laugh and weep, or give them a sense of wonder.

The second quadrant is about feelings and freedom. That doesn’t mean there is no sense of responsibility or duty – because there is – but the domain of interest has shifted. The sense of duty is no longer to the world; it is to the heart. The question is no longer, “What can I do to be rich and successful?” but “What can I do to be happy?”

The second quadrant is about being true to yourself It’s about trusting your inner voice, allowing yourself to play, to see God in other people, in the rocks and trees, in all of nature — and in yourself. It’s about breaking free of convention and following your bliss. It’s about joy and inspiration.

The essence of this energy is about simplicity. It’s about living a simple life and having a circle of friends that accept you. It’s about being true to your real feelings, your passions, and your calling.  Often this means veering off the main road and seeking your destiny on the road less traveled. Again, this is the time to release what is not yours to do or be, but to allow what is yours to make itself known. Let go of all those identities that are not you! From this space of newness and new beginnings, we can hear the heart speak. Your heart will set you on your right path.

The Human Design Chart for Winter Solstice 2019

This year the Human Design type for the Winter Solstice is Projector with a 2/5 Profile and the Incarnation Cross of the Vessel of Love. This Profile and Cross also showed up in the chart of the Fall Equinox.  We are being given additional opportunity and time to integrate what these energies offer us!

What do we know about the Projector archetype? Projectors are here to guide and direct others, and to serve in a leadership capacity. Because of their ability to read energy, they have unique insights and wisdom regarding how to best manage the flow of energy so that everyone benefits. It is the Projector’s undefined Sacral that gives them the capacity to read the others’ energy, in addition to the unique configuration of their penetrating aura. But because they do not have a defined Sacral, the Projector does not have continuous access to energy. However, this does not mean that Projectors are not energetically available to life. On the contrary. They need to be with the right people — those who value and honor their gifts — and their energy will flow. Projectors are here to allow energy to move through them in service to their purpose.

The Quantum Purpose of the Projector (per Karen Curry Parker) is to hold the energy template of what’s to come and to clear the vibration of the collective consciousness. Projectors are constantly cleaning the energy of the planet, and holding the subtle body template of the planet together. The Projector continually scrubs the planetary grid to help its energy to flow unimpeded.

The 2/5 Profile. We all need to have time for quiet isolation, for that is where we experience our deepest peace. Inside relaxation and silence, we can explore, without interruption, our creativity and musings. We can re-connect to ourselves. The Profile for the Winter Solstice 2019 chart is the 2/5, the Hermit Heretic. This profile is about the need to retreat to aloneness to find one’s inner guidance, and to integrate what we have gathered. There is a need in the 2/5 profile to intentionally build in alone time, for that is where regeneration occurs.

The Cross of the Vessel of Love. Each Human Design chart has an Incarnation Cross, made up of the Personality (Conscious) Earth and Sun, and the Design (Unconscious) Earth and Sun. Each of these four planets occupy a gate and a line. The unique configuration of the Conscious and Unconscious Sun and Earth placements creates a specific cross, a cross that speaks to your purpose. This Winter Solstice has the Incarnation Cross of the Vessel of Love. 

Putting it All Together

This Winter Solstice is a big opportunity to reconnect with who we are, who we need, and what we need to be happy, all of which connects us to our purpose. The stillness of the Solstice brings us closer to our center. It is here that we can get an intimate look at what we value, what we believe, and what we believe in. This Winter’s Solstice was born in the time between sunset and midnight, placing it in the second quadrant. The second quadrant is about being true to yourself. It’s about trusting your inner voice and following your bliss. This Winter’s Solstice moment of ingress into Capricorn also gives us the human design type of Projector. The Projector’s unique abilities to read and recognize energy allows her to orchestrate its flow so that it can be articulated into specific form. This is your opportunity to get your energy flowing in your right direction. The Projector has the sacred task of keeping the subtle body template of the planet aligned, anchoring it to the physical, making sure it’s strong enough to hold whatever is coming next. When you are anchored by your truth, you have the resiliency to handle the unexpected. The 2/5 profile gives us the space of stillness and quiet, so that we can connect to our deeper truths.

This season we have special access to the power of love via the Incarnation Cross. It is my wish that you avail yourself of the highest expression of this healing energy, and that it continues to unfold in your life throughout this next year.

WHAT IS IN YOUR SOUL CONTRACT?

There is nothing more important than carrying out your soul contract because in doing so, everyone benefits. Your gifts are meant to be shared. They are part of an intricately interwoven matrix where each one’s gifts and callings are interconnected. Each time someone agrees to do what they came here to do, all of life is lifted up, and the healing and evolution that happens for everyone, including the Cosmos, is beyond measure.

Your life centers on fulfilling your purpose. Your agenda, or soul intentions, reside in your soul contract. You agreed to complete many tasks, both large and small. Each soul contract contains your primary mission—your dharma—and unresolved matters seeking balance, known as karma. How do you discover them?

Review where you have invested your time, energy, and attention. What have you been driven to pursue? These actions reveal your soul’s true interests. Your actions, shaped by your desires, point to your dharma and karma—what you are here to work on. How you pursue your desires also highlights your gifts and where to serve.

The most straightforward way to uncover your soul contract is to follow your strongest motivations. Early in life, we may not know our purpose, but we can learn about it. Each of us has natural gifts the world needs. Your talent may be humor, connection, cooking, handling complex ideas, organizing, or supporting others. Everyone has significant gifts—often many—and they are meant to be used in the service of your life’s purpose, bringing deep fulfillment.

So, how can you truly know what your soul contract contains?

Imagine God and your Higher Self helped design your life, then sent you to enact your soul contract. What would they point you toward?

      • Would it be about embodying kindness and goodness?
      • Would it be pursuing a specific career path or developing a particular talent?
      • Would it be reaching the top of your profession?
      • Would it be about becoming famous?
      • Would it be giving back through generosity and service?
      • Would it be creating art to inspire the world?
      • Would it be helping others using your abilities?
      • Would it be a peacemaker?
      • Would it be a civil rights activist?
      • Would it be to solve humanity’s problems with innovation?
      • Would it be animal rights?
      • Would it be teaching and inspiring others to have confidence and courage?
      • Would it be healing of the mind, body, or spirit?
      • Would it be to create communities that meet the needs of their members and, in turn, serve the greater good?
      • Would it be about becoming a visionary leader?
      • Would it be amassing as much money as you could so you could buy nice things?

You were put here for a reason; your task is to discover and fulfill it. You possess a range of skills and interests that can lead to numerous further opportunities. When you engage directly with your soul contract, you’ll find contentment and a deeper understanding of your life.

Your soul contract is meant to bring you joy. When you feel joy with certain things or experiences, you’ve found clues to your soul contract.
The most important thing is to fulfill your purpose. Are you listening to your soul contract? Are you answering its call?

Carrying out your soul contract is paramount. Sharing your gifts uplifts everyone and connects us all. When someone fulfills their purpose, all life rises and healing spreads throughout existence, even the Cosmos.

P.S. It doesn’t matter how old you are, or if you feel that you haven’t made much headway. If you are alive, now is the time to act. Today, take at least one step, no matter how small, toward fulfilling your soul contract.

FALL EQUINOX 2019 THROUGH THE LENS OF ASTROLOGY AND HUMAN DESIGN: A TIME TO REMEMBER AND TO COMMIT

Fall is a season of remembering. We are reminded that life is always moving forward, that everything changes, and that we cannot hold on to anything forever. Our memories of what once was are now especially poignant. If it is nothing else, Fall is the time to remember that we cannot take anything for granted.

When I think of Fall, I picture brilliant golds and reds, falling leaves, and orange pumpkins. I reflect on my progress, what I’ve lost, let go of, and what I now welcome.

In the Northern hemisphere, we are harvesting what we’ve sown, both recently and long ago. Some yields are good, while others are not.
Fall is a season of remembering. We’re reminded that life moves forward, everything changes, and nothing lasts forever. Memories are especially poignant now. Above all, Fall reminds us not to take things for granted. What we cherish will eventually leave us, so we must often show love and appreciation for what and who matters most.

This is the season when we cross into the darkening light. The symbolism is about deepening; we move into a more profound aspect of our psychospiritual selves. Fall invites reflection on our values and dreams that have been set aside. Even delayed, these dreams still exist—perhaps now is their time.

Having explored the deeper meanings and emotional invitations of Fall, we now turn to the astrological context of this season.

The Astrology of Fall Equinox 2019: the Significance of the Time of Day, the Moon, and Saturn

Time of Day. Fall began as the Sun entered Libra at 1:51 AM Mountain Time. Let’s explore the symbolism of this hour. The village is dark; most are asleep, surrounded by family. It’s about loyalty, devotion, and protecting our communities from the dangers of the night. It’s also a time to set aside our problems and trust in something bigger. This mystical hour invites us to connect with Spirit, longing, and dreams. It’s a time for dreaming and nurturing those dreams.

The Moon. At 1:51 AM Mountain Time (adjusted for other time zones), the Moon occupies a sector that supports its core qualities. Its placement in the 1st sector of the 4th quadrant (the 12th house) emphasizes romance, connection, and companionship. There is a longing to return to simplicity. This is a time to release what no longer serves us, both in tangible and emotional ways.

We are more vulnerable and sensitive now. The Moon amplifies these emotions. It’s a chance to open our hearts, let go, and accept what is—even if it hurts. This season offers deeper self-awareness, mission recall, and stronger connections. Dark emotions surface and can be healed. It’s also a time to deepen intimacy by releasing what isn’t true for us.

Saturn. As we end the main astrological factors for the season, note that the Fall Equinox Saturn is stationary—moving between 0.008 and -0.008 degrees per day. A stationary planet has stopped to witness a unique moment. There’s a mystical, parental nature. With Saturn, the focus is responsibility.

Saturn has 128 confirmed moons, a testament to its immense capacity for responsibility. Here, responsibility extends beyond paying bills or working hard. Saturn wants you to care for what’s truly yours. If you pay rent but neglect family or commitments, you dishonor Saturn and societal agreements. When Saturn is stationary, responsibility broadens; it’s about living the spirit, not just the letter, of the law.

The Human Design Chart for Fall Equinox 2019
This Fall Equinox features the chart of a Reflector, the rarest of the Human Design Types. Reflectors thrive in the right community and environment. When thriving, Reflectors express their skills and benefit the village. If not, their struggles mirror an unbalanced community. If the village pays attention, it can address this imbalance.

I’ve described the link between Reflector and the community in abstract terms, but it is illustrated by Greta Thunberg’s powerful speech at the U.N. on September 23, 2019.

The Reflector’s central needs align with this year’s Fall. Between midnight and sunrise, we sleep and dream, surrounded by our people for warmth and safety. This gathering fosters a sense of safety, identity, and a strong sense of belonging. Fall’s needs mirror those of the Reflector: a right community, connection, intimacy, and a sense of place. Shoring up these structures sustains our sense of self and purpose.

The 2/5 Profile. Many prefer solitude for deep peace. In silence, creativity and musings flourish. The Fall Equinox 2019 chart has the 2/5—Hermit Heretic—profile. This profile values solitude for inner guidance and the integration of knowledge. Alone time fosters regeneration and centering.

But there is a flip side. Both Line 2 and Line 5 like to hide. The community calls out line 2 because it needs to share privately gained knowledge, often unconsciously. Line 5 is noticed for its inherent magnetism; it promises to meet others’ needs, usually a projection. Line 5 also projects, engaging in an obscure process. Line 5 transforms known information, synthesizing it for the greater good. This Fall is rich with such alchemical energy and the chance to return with new stories.

The theme of retreating to dream and reconnect with ourselves is echoed in the 2/5 profile for this Fall. Personal integration comes through quiet deepening, allowing dreams to become practical. We also realize a more profound need to sustain connections—not just for socializing, but for the well-being of families, communities, and humanity.

The Cross of the Vessel of Love. Each Human Design chart has an Incarnation Cross, created by the Sun and Earth placements in both conscious and unconscious lines. This configuration reveals your purpose. This Fall Equinox features the Incarnation Cross of the Vessel of Love.

As such, a specific purpose of this Fall season, as revealed in its 2019 Human Design, is to express love. The four gates of the Cross of the Vessel of Love are the 46, the 25, the 15, and the 10. In the 46 we have the love and appreciation of being in a human body so that we can give our spiritual purpose viable form and manifestation; in the 25 we remember that the reason we do anything is because of our reverence for, and gratitude to, Source; in the 15, we remember our need for connection to community, and in the 10, we remember to love ourselves, so that we are always empowered to bring through our highest spiritual expression through our actions, and how we live our lives each day.

A summary of this Incarnation Cross: Since this season provides us with special access to the energy of love, we can be its messengers and activists. This season, we are especially empowered to wield the power of love to shatter what does not support life, to heal, and to restore balance in all the places that need them. We begin, of course, with tending first to our wounds, and to what needs to be loved in us by us.

This Fall, we seek to deepen our connection and companionship and to bring our dreams into reality. We continue to dream and to reach for what’s possible for us. We will review, revise, and invent the infrastructures that will ensure sustainability and thriving for our communities. We do these things because we are in touch with our deeper feelings and our deeper truths. We do these things because we remember that we are here only for a time, and so everything is that much more precious. We are open to the novel and the unexpected in solutions. We do what we do because we care and because we believe in the power of love for one another.
