”Your Human Design is your key to understanding your energy, your Life Purpose, your Life Path and your Soul’s journey in this lifetime. You are a once-in-a-lifetime cosmic event and the fulfillment of your potential and purpose is the greatest gift you can give the world.”—Karen Curry Parker

In case you don’t know your type and don’t have a chart, here’s one chart generator that’s free & reliable. I recommend you print it out so you can follow along more easily.
The features colored in green are me and I am a Self-Projected Classic Projector so if you are a Projector too, you can use the green ones as general guidance but keep in mind that many of your other features probably won’t correspond to mine.
To read about your type and to understand your different features, click on the arrow (toggle) at the beginning of a row to expand it.
You will find your Type, Strategy, Authority, Profile, & Emotional Themes displayed on your chart (again, here’s a free & reliable chart generator) so you don’t really have to go deep on those yourself. The rest of your chart contains a TON of info gold but that’s beyond the basics so I won’t be going into it here.

<aside> 🔑 Your Strategy gives you key information about how you operate your Human vehicle in the world, how to make the right choices with less resistance and how to recognize when you are on the right path or out of alignment with your Truth. If you want to live out the fullest expression of your unique Design, following your Strategy according to your Type is the way.
Following your Strategy will help you to more naturally align with your Life Purpose, minimize the resistance you experience, make strong and healthy decisions that will feel good, more meaningful and joyful to you and you will truly fulfill your Personal Destiny.
*** *At the bottom of this page you will find a more elaborate view of the emotional themes for each type and how they impact our communication. ****

<aside> 🦉 Although decision-making is tied directly to your Strategy, your Authority flavors the way you use your Strategy. (…) With cognitive awareness of old patterns, you begin to heal and transform these energies into deep sources of wisdom, the more you clear your old energy patterns, the more effectively your natural decision-making skills (your Authority) can function. You can then begin to use your Authority along with your Strategy to help you make better decisions for your life. It's very important to note that Authority does not override your Strategy, it just shifts the way you use your Strategy so that your decisions and choices are even more in alignment with the overall energy in your Design.
Calibrators (Reflectors) are the only type that has no true Authority other than their Calibrator Strategy, which is to wait a full Lunar cycle (because they have no Centers defined in their Design, have no true Authority).
</aside>
<aside> ⭐ Each Center carries and manages a certain frequency of energy and relates to specific themes in our lives. Most of us have both defined and open/undefined centers and it’s important to understand what all of them mean.
Defined Centers
If a Center is colored, then it is called Defined. A Defined Center has a consistent way of operating and is part of the energy you consistently express. This is the energy that you radiate out into the world.
It operates the same way energetically and thematically. These are the aspects of your personality that are true all the time, independent of any other factors in your environment.
Your definition will stay the same throughout your lifetime.
The beauty of our Defined and Undefined Centers is that individually we are all puzzle pieces—parts of a greater whole. We all become completely Defined when we are all together.
We each bring pieces that energetically unify us all and offer us the opportunity to express all of the Human experience.
We all have ALL of the Chart, it’s just that what is Defined in your Chart is what you consistently experience, radiate and express all the time no matter where you are, who you’re with are where the planets are transiting.
Open / Undefined Centers
If a Center is white, then it is called Undefined or Open.
Undefined/Open Centers are where we take in energy and information from the world around us. We not only absorb energies in our openness, but we also AMPLIFY them.
In our openness, we experience other people’s energies and because of this, we have the potential for great wisdom, but also the potential for pain and confusion. It’s in our openness that we have been deeply conditioned, by family, friends and society.⠀
These Undefined or Open areas represent aspects of your personality that are inconsistent because it changes depending on who you’re around. This can also feel more intense than defined energy because it’s always changing and you're amplifying it.
It’s easy to think the energy in your Open or Undefined Centers is yours, and sometimes you will try to “fix” an aspect of your personality or wonder “what’s wrong with me?”, not realizing that you’re behaving according to outside factors that aren’t even really you!
Your openness is where you have the potential for the most pain until you understand how your energy works; until you learn what’s you/yours and what’s not you/yours.
When you learn what energy is yours and what isn’t yours is when your openness starts to become the place for your greatest wisdom. You learn that you’re only experiencing this energy and it’s not what defines you. You’re then able to experience the energy and let it go.
Are you aware of the areas you’ve been conditioned? Having this awareness starts the seven-year deconditioning process.

<aside> 👼 There are 12 profiles in Human Design and each is a combination of “lines”. You can find your profile in the information section of your body graph, expressed as a fraction.
Your profile ****illuminates the personality style you bring to your role in life.
The first number of your profile shows your dominant conscious personality trait. It is the one you’re always aware of and that you can use deliberately whenever you choose.
The second number shows your dominant unconscious trait, which you are often unaware of and are not able to intentionally leverage. However, this unconscious trait does express through you and the people in your life are often more aware of it than you are.
There isn’t really anything to “do” with your profile except become aware of it. And in your awareness, let go of any ways you may have been conditioned to think there is something wrong with you for the way you were meant to naturally exist in the world.
Here, we will explore each line separately.
