If I understand it correctly, the thing that programs humans in Human Design is neutrinos coming from our Sun and hitting our bodies. But if that's the case, why does Human Design use tropical charts for personal bodygraphs instead of true sidereal, if neutrinos are what actually program us?

Something that is interesting to understand about human design is that who you think you are has absolutely zero relation to the business of actually engaging with the material plane. Every function of your body and everything your body needs to do, where it needs to go, who it needs to be with, this is a part of an entirely separate process that you have no access to. The prime design crystal in your ajna center is solely responsible for administering the process by which your form evolves on this plane. The personality crystal that you identify with is completely uninvolved. When you can let go of attempting to interfere with this process, you see that the body truly does drive itself. Everything ‘you’ do is part of a specific path that you don’t need to lift a finger to be involved with. All you have to ‘do’ is watch.

There is an incredible freedom and relief to slowly metabolizing this truth over the process of deconditioning. Of being able to really see what is happening rather than being broken on the wheel of something you are truly not even supposed to be doing. If you really want to make it to this point, that means relying on your strategy and authority. Not just for little things, for big things. In the mystical process, this is referred to as ‘the leap’. Only by willing to cross to the other side with no necessary guarantee of what you will get will this freedom ever be yours.

I don’t think it was Ra’s place to get down to the nitty gritty, to tell people that they needed to change their behavior. It would have conflicted with his purpose of getting the message heard by as many people as possible. But the beauty of the heretic is there are no end to heresies, something can be rebelled against and then the rebellion will be rebelled against later on. My heresy for you is that it’s your own fault you’re in this mess and you can only get out of it by changing yourself. You have to be willing to confront your weakness and surpass it. It’s the only way to something else. That is the personality consciousness process. Not material success. Existential awakening.

‘So, you end up with a NotSelf Projector, you end up with a being that's always looking for the sweet; always, always. Always looking for the sweet leads to all kinds of addictions: drug addictions, alcohol addictions, sex addictions, you name it! All kinds of things… to find the sweet; they're always looking for that sweet! When they don't get it – because it's all relative – for the NotSelf it is, you know… they're never, never, never, never satisfying! They can't be, because there is no sweet for the bitter
Projector until they are correct; it's just not there. The illusions of sweet are delusions in their lives… I mean, I would rather deal with a morose Projector than deal with one that's caught in the illusion of sweetness! Because it's an illusion… when Projectors stop hunting for the sweet, they will find themselves. It's the great trap of the NotSelf Projector! It is the thing that nails the NotSelf Projector to the wall: it means that everything that they do in this life, every relationship they have, every
career, direction, you name it, all of it is looking for that one thing: to get away from the bitter! to get the sweet reward! And it's the mind that's making those decisions, it's the mind that is making this decision based on whatever the NotSelf happens to be; whatever its framework happens to be. So, the first thing to keep in mind is this whole looking for the escape from bitterness. Every Projector, every Projector, deep within them, this is the deepest theme of their NotSelf mind 'I have to escape
bitterness!' 'I have to find the sweet!'’
-Ra Uru Hu.

So this is sort of a two part question:

1. What are your thoughts on using HD to quickly get to know someone you just met but might want to become closer with?

2. How do you like to intentionally introduce/bring up HD with people, especially people you don't know all that well?

I'm still learning HD and I'm trying to connect some dots here and there. My digestion is cold thirst and I've been experimenting with it for 2-3 weeks already. It seems like my digestion is improved. Surprisingly, I get a bit cold when I sit and work even during hearwave, but recently it wasn't the case, I've felt normal for the first time in years.

There's also one thing that I could never figure out - I get extremely hot at night and I wonder if that's somehow connected to the cold thirst, aka my body getting super hot?

Did any of you with cold thirst have similar experience?

I am a choirister and am soon competing in an international competition next weekend. My choir has been ramping up the intensity and frequency of our rehearsals in preparation, and I attended every single one.

Separately, I sang in an open mic last Friday and it was AMAZING. I never sang pop music in this capacity before, it was a first getting to hype people up.

But these in combination must have really tired my voice out AND I BARELY NOTICED.

I am the sort of the person with NO self control, I WILL sing as loud and dramatically as I can during rehearsals and performances 😂 I realised I was ignoring the warning signs cuz yesterday I was singing for a gathering too just in a super low register as the middle-high register was already worn out😂😂😂

Today its just completely gone. My voice is NOT working and when I speak its creaky and really high or low. For some reason my throat is NOT sore or painful its just the sound that is completely lost on me. I have never had this kind of experience before really but now I may not even recover in time for next week 💔💔💔 whatever happens happens though im not all that tossed up about it.

It IS a genuinely frustrating experience to not be able to talk properly though. Holy fuck.

Coincidentally today is my 19th birthday!! Which is incredibly funny timing for such an issue lol

Anyone else had such an experience? I have the intuition its due to my undefined throats notself pushing it past what it is capable but idk. Maybr its just my brain trying to make this HD-related.😂😂😂

I've had a thought over the years that maybe the lines are expressed differently not only depending on the individuals overall characteristics but also the cultural environment they come from.

The rave i'ching descriptions were filtered through Ra and may make sense to some and not to others or one might make their own version.

For those familiar, do you find the line descriptions universal or does how you experience those parts of your design (ie. you read a line that you can clearly see yourself acting out) differ due the cultural environment and if so, do any of them spring to mind? How do you interpret, translate, explain them so they feel like yours (not to mention they're kind of generalised since there's an added nuance of substructure which I'm, at that level blissfully ignorant of)?

Good day.

How do you know if there is something better out there?

I’m a 4/6 projector 34 years old. Splenic, split definition.

3 years ago I sold all my belongings and I moved to another country. I felt joy and was very happy and excited. 

While living there, in a new place, my life took off there and we had fun living here. But my joy went away slowly. Year after year, and now I’m depleted.

The community has given me a lot of stress, I was excited to meet people and it turned out to be a very excluding community, a lot happened and the people drained me. Now they accept me being there but long story, it’s not my community. And I don’t want to be in it or around these people. So I’m going the odd on out, the loner to them.  I distanced myself and I do my own thing. 

it’s small here. I feel I can’t escape. They also observe me, follow what i do with my life (for some reason they do want to know everything about me)

I can be alone, so it’s not a bad thing in that case. But more how it feels as a human to be treated like this and i don’t like them in my aura.

Sometimes I want to pack all my things and move and start fresh.  Leave all this behind. It has marked this place in a negative energy instead of how i felt when I lived here the first year. 

But, I bought my home here, I like my home and I love this area. But lately it is something keeping me busy. I don’t feel what I want?

I sometimes think about moving again, but That would be a big change since I live abroad.

Is it truly important for an projector to live in the home and area you want OR in the best community? What is more important? And how can I be guided to the right thing to do now?

Any projectors out here who have felt something stirring up and have any advice how to feel what I should do?

I feel like change is happening inside me, but don’t have the answers and it has been a while.

I’m new in learning so bear with me but I’m on a thought mission right now. I’m curious about what gates might correspond with narcissistic tendencies, and how the unconscious might play a larger role in narcissism since it is more of a repressive defense mechanism. I’m an emotional projector 6/2- and have experienced SO many relationships with covert narcissists and I’d like to understand more :) thanks!

How do you do it? I only saw 11 clients this week and I feel DEMOLISHED. I probably say less than the average therapist. I am comfortably uncomfortable in some silence. I try to practice waiting for the invitation in session, but how does this work practically? Any other tips?

I’m a 4/6 projector and I have a bit of trouble with one aspect of my life. I have posted about this before and it keeps coming back. It makes me depressed. And I feel lonely. 

I see everyone having (groups) of friends, having fun this summer, going to places together, doing fun shit. So I’m triggered by what I see, again.

All my life it just doesn’t happen. I have had connections, here and there. But they also seem to forget me, and do the fun stuff with other groups and they forget about me. But also it almost never gets to the point of being included like I belong or friends with someone further than just superficial. 

A lot of groups also are already there, its hard to enter. But they have? They have entered at some point? I feel there a so few projectors here, i can see and feel most of them are energy types. 

I have had best friends, but not now since i moved to a new place a couple of years ago. I know a lot of people. But no friends.

It is starting to feel like I am suppose to live a lonely life without any friends. 

Is this the projector life?

besides this, I am also very tired and occupied. So i search for true connection not just anyone, and also I notice others connect so different. I feel like an alien, an alien who isnt fun and casual fun chatty and crazy enough to be fun to be around. I just want fun AND connect for real. I just don’t get that social part, i can’t do it even if I wish i could. It draines me. I’m also more selective. But it feels everyone does have this.  

Ok.. well I guess I wanted to ask projectors… especially above 30 years old. Do you have this too? 

Is this our purpose? To be alone forever? 

Hi! I'm on a deep dive into HD with the Lynda Bunnell and Ra Uru Hu book and it's been an amazing resource for starting out. I'm looking to dive deeper into the other aspects of the charts.

Can anyone share resources on where to learn about Motivation, Environment, Sense, Trajectory, View Perspective, etc?

Thank you!!

So, if at 88 days before your birth (design date), your geographic location was different, how does this affect your profile? Am I correct in thinking that they are separate designs so it wouldn't?

I just did a friend’s chart and all his channels are in the nodes. From my research, the nodes are all about what you ‘see’ and aren’t really innate traits of the being. Plus also the whole south node north node thing so in one half of someone’s life, someone doesn’t have access to the other gate of the channel that defines their type and/or authority. How does that work? If my emotional authority is defined by 37/40 nodal configuration can I still even have a wave? If I can only see in others one half of the channel for half my life? Do you understand what I’m trying to ask?

Is it a common projector experience that people absolutely shut down if you (as a projector) share about yourself without being asked? People always seem soo comfortable to talk about themselves to me, and I'm a good listener and question-asker, but anytime I share bout myself unprompted, it feels like I'm throwing the energy off.

I know about the wait for the invitation thing, but I also want to feel free to share about myself, too. But I really often feel this energetic shift where people are put off/almost ignore what I have to say unless they actually care. Fascinating!

any other projectors had problems with their lymph system? I’ve been having an unexplained lymph flair in my knees for 8 months. doctors can’t figure out what it is so I eventually turned to human design to see if I could get some answers. found a few references to backed up lymph system for projectors but there’s not a lot out there.

anyone else experience this? what have you done to approach it?

I’ve tested a few things with good results but wondering if anyone else can explain why or share their experience.

Did any of you paid a reader to interpret your human design chart and got amazing insight? How much are those readings?

With the solar eclipse coming up (in two days here in Europe), the question came up as to its "meaning" in HD.

I'm much more of a sceptic in regard to this. Sun and Moon conjunction happens every month (that's the new moon), so they activate the same gate for about half a day. Nothing to fuss about in my opinion. Not because the eclipse is rare does it mean anything special.

I can't remember Ra saying anything special about eclipses, but I'm far from having read/heard everything. So if you have quotes, will you share them?

Hi friends! I’d love to hear from those of you who have undefined or open Solar Plexus’s. How is your experience around defined SPs? I have a defined Sacral, so I can’t speak to the experience of those who are undefined, and there’s already a lot of info out there regarding those dynamics, so I’m wondering if the SP is another arena where burnout can take place. For context, I do also use astrology to make sense of some of this. Astrologically, I have a Pisces stellium (moon, mercury, Venus) and I find defined Solar Plexus energy particularly intense. I love my emotional authorities, and genuinely love their expression, but I find myself much more burned out after extended contact with them. I haven’t seen a lot out there on this, so I’m wondering if I’m misunderstanding what I’m actually feeling, and what I can do to navigate this in the most healthy way, particularly with my Emo Generator daughter, who is still really little and in my field the majority of the time.
