What Is Human Design? A Deep Dive Into the Human Design System
High-Level Overview of Human Design
Human Design is a system that overlays the I-Ching on the Astrological Wheel, and the Kabbalah Tree of Life on the Hindu Chakras, then connects it all together with Quantum Mechanics. This system creates a unique and individualized map of a person's energetic makeup. It shows the mechanics of how our unique energy operates within the endless changing moments of time and the interactions therein. This information allows us to gain better self-awareness, make better decisions, improve relationships, and facilitate personal growth.
Human Design uses the time of birth to determine the imprint of the conscious mind. Human Design also looks at the imprint of the unconscious body by calculating 88 days prior to your birth. It then merges the conscious and unconscious together in the bodygraph. It shows what type of aura you have, how your aura best functions with other auras, and how to make decisions with your body, not your mind.
The calculation of your human design bodygraph comes from your birthday, time, and location. Your birthtime is most likely on your birth certificate, but if you don’t have access to your time, we can narrow down the birth range in a clarity call.
Running your bodygraph is the first step in human design…

Human Design In Detail
Disbelief
First of all, I want to start with a quote by Ra Uru Hu, founder of Human Design:
“Human design is not a belief system. It does not require that you believe in anything. It’s neither stories nor philosophy. It’s a concrete map to the nature of being and your genetic code. This ability to detail the mechanics of our nature in such depth is profound because it reveals our complete nature in all its subtleties. Human Design opens the door to the potential of self-love, a love of life, and the love of others through understanding.”
You can learn about this system, but it doesn’t matter until you experience it. You can live a totally normal, healthy, happy life without Human Design. I never pressure anyone to believe this, and can have normal conversations without talking about it, in case you’re worried if I’m “weird”. I am weird, but you don’t have to be.
That said… buckle up because what I’m about to say is incredibly weird. Enjoy!
The Program
Life force is an all-knowing non-dual energy.
During the Big Bang, Life split into duality to experience and create itself in an infinite creation loop.
This duality forms the illusion of reality, known as The Program or Maia.
The Program is an intelligent environment filled with patterns of duality interpreted through systems like Human Design.
Duality is inherently creative, but the duality of creativity is homogenization—a force of conditioning that restricts diversity and creativity.
Conditioning is present in societies, traditions, and even cosmic transits, influencing how we innovate or resist constraints.
Though often restrictive, conditioning also serves as a creative catalyst, driving Life to evolve.
Aligned conditioning fosters harmony, while misaligned conditioning sparks innovation.
Conditioning challenges us to rediscover our true selves by learning who we are Not. This is where the concept of Not Self arises.
Neutrinos
The splitting from wholeness into separateness is infinite. The smallest version of this separateness is a form of mass called Neutrinos.
Neutrinos have about one-millionth the weight of one proton, and there are more neutrinos in the universe than any other form of mass.
Mass allows neutrinos to carry information, yet Neutrinos are small enough to pass through any atomic barrier without resistance.
Stars (including our sun) create neutrinos.
Our sun produces about 70 percent of all the neutrinos that travel through our solar system. The remaining 30 percent are emitted by other stars in our Milky Way Galaxy, and a small percentage are from Jupiter.
We are surrounded by an enormous star field with neutrino frequencies that carry information.
These neutrinos are constantly penetrating and informing any mass that they pass through. When a neutrino hits a mass, an exchange occurs between the frequency and the mass.
Neutrinos are penetrating us with bits of information all the time. We are living in the breath of stars.
The Mandala
Neutrino frequencies can be interpreted in many ways. They have historically been interpreted in the twelve astrological signs but they go much further than that.
To help further our understanding of these frequencies, Human Design incorporates the 64 hexagrams of the I-Ching into traditional astrology.
The original twelve astrological signs are expressed as 6 to 7 different hexagrams each, for a total of 64 frequency fields that match up to the I-Ching hexagrams.
The 64 hexagrams of the IChing are also synced to the 64 codons of our DNA. This makes the IChing the translation device between the stars and our bodies.
These 64 frequencies are called gates in Human Design.
Each gate is broken down further by the 6 lines of each hexagram, multiplying the neutrino frequencies up to 384. These are called lines.
The 64 gates are mapped into the Mandala and grouped together in the Bodygraph.

Torrus Fields
Human design is a system that mostly illustrates duality, which is unified as non-dual energy.
This unification happens via quantum mechanics, which describes the behavior of the smallest objects, like neutrinos and atoms, which create our reality.
Quantum is seen in toroidal fields, which are circular-shaped energy fields that compress matter to create our reality. We can see these fields in the ozone layer, tornados, and every living being.
Torroidial fields also create our aura, containing all our energy as one, compressed into the duality of our physical unconscious body and conscious mind.
The line in the middle of the torus field where particles are held together is called the axis of rotation. Human Design calls that line the Magnetic Monopole.
The aura holds the body and mind in quantum via the Magnetic Monopole in the G center.
Aura is the field that creates the form principle to allow consciousness to know itself. In other words, the aura is the field that enables the entity of ourselves to have self-reflected consciousness.
The aura 'drives' the body via the Magnetic Monopole 'wheel.
IF the torus field of the aura is holding the body and mind in quantum, AND the aura is generated from our heart, via the magnetic monopole, AND the magnetic monopole is connected to Source, THEN the aura can be considered our Higher Self.

Planets
We experience these frequencies through our solar system.
Our solar system is an ecosystem, and all the elements in our solar systems share information as we swirl around together through space.
As our solar system moves around the universe, information is constantly exchanged between the planets and the neutrino fields.
Since Earth is in the solar system, and humans are part of the Earth’s ecosystem, we are impacted by this exchange.
The planets are our teachers, and the star fields are our classes.
Here’s what the planets teach:
-
Sun: Personality expression and primary life force
-
Earth: Our grounding balance
- Note: The sun and earth are two imprints that are read as one. Learn more here.
-
Moon: Our driving force
-
South Node: Past direction (First Book of Life)
-
North Node: Future direction (Second Book of Life)
-
Mercury: Communication and thinking
-
Venus: Values and sociology
-
Mars: Immaturity and energy dynamics
-
Jupiter: Law and protection
-
Saturn: Discipline and restraint
-
Uranus: Chaos and science
-
Neptune: Illusion and spirituality
-
Pluto: Truth and transformation
No other objects in our solar system can activate the bodygraph. Other objects filter the neutrino stream and add quality, but do not activate the bodygraph.
Crystals
The potential of life force can be visualized as crystals. During the Big Bang, an infinite number of crystals were created, and these crystals are present in all life, down to the tiniest grain of sand.
The information from the planetary transits gets downloaded through crystals.
Humans carry two types of crystals, one that contains our conscious mind called the Personality Crystal, and one that contains our unconscious body called the Design Crystal.
When we are born, these crystals are imprinted with a snapshot of our solar system and star fields at that precise moment of birth for the rest of our lives. That imprinting is captured in our BodyGraph, which is called our definition.
Approximately 88 days before birth, our Design Crystal was imprinted to create our unconscious energetic body.
The planets in these gates are colored in red on the mandala and in the bodygraph.
The Design Crystal is how the birds know where to migrate, the flowers know when to bloom, and our bodies know what feels good to us or not.
The Design Crystal is where the information for our purpose and soul contracts are kept for this particular lifetime.
When we are separated from our mother's body, our Personality Crystal is imprinted, which shapes how our conscious mind will observe this life.
The planets in these gates are colored in black on the mandala and bodygraph.
We don’t have conscious access to the information stored in the Design Crystal, because our consciousness resides with the Personality Crystal, our mind.
Our mind is designed to observe the body, making decisions based on what the body is revealing.
As this happens, the secrets of the Design Crystal are slowly revealed to us over time, and we start to become aware of who we are designed to be in this incarnation.

Centers
We can visualize how all this information comes together through the Mandala and the Bodygraph.
The neutrino frequencies, as understood by the 64 frequencies of the IChing and the 64 codons of our DNA, are grouped by the Centers of the Bodygraph.
Centers show how the energetic layers of our aura are functioning. Centers also show how the various organs of our bodies are operating.
Centers can be compared to the Hindu chakra system, the difference being that the energies of 7 chakras are further divided into 9 centers.
These 9 centers govern our energetic composition for humans in our current state of evolution.
The 9 centers are:
Head - How we gain inspiration
Ajna - How we formulate our thoughts
Throat - How we express, communicate, and manifest
“G” Identity - How we view ourselves and others, how we are led in life
Ego - How we are driven and experience our self-worth
Sacral - Where the life force of humanity is generated
Solar Plexus - How emotions are experienced
Spleen - How our intuition and immune system functions
Root - How we handle the mundane pressures of life
The centers can be defined or undefined, and are activated via the gates and channels (explained next).
Defined centers give humans a constant expression of that center, transmitting information from the body/mind like a radar, conditioning others. This is our “nature”.
Undefined centers do not have a constant expression of that energy except when other people or transits influence that center to activate. Undefined centers act like a vortex or mirror, bringing in the energy around them and amplifying it. This is how we are conditioned, our “nurture”.
Gates
Each center has 3 to 11 “expression valves” called gates.
Gates dictate how the energetic layers of our aura are expressed.
There are 64 gates, synced with the 64 neutrino stream frequencies and the 64 codons of our DNA.
When a planet is located in a neutrino stream at the time of birth, it imprints the corresponding gate in the bodygraph and activates it.
You can think of these gates as valves in a machine that are turned “on” when a planet is imprinted in a gate at birth, becoming activated life force energy in the human.
With 13 potential imprinting possibilities (sun, earth, moon, nodes, and planets) on both conscious and unconscious, only 26 potential gates can be activated in a human bodygraph.
The remaining gates that are dormant (at least 38 unimprinted gates) are experienced as conditioning from the environment (living entities in the human’s aura or transits).
Humans experience all the gates as life force energy or conditioning to learn from.
Channels
The centers are designed to work together via 36 circuits called Channels.
Channels can be compared to the Tree of Life. They can also be viewed as conductors and connectors on a circuit board.
Each channel is connected to two centers, one on either side of the channel. When a channel is activated, both centers that it connects will become Defined.
This is how a channel is activated:
- There is one gate on either side of each channel.
- A planet imprint will activate a gate.
- The activated gate activates one side of the channel.
- When both gates on each side of the channel are activated, the entire channel is activated.
- When both gates in a channel are activated, the energies of the gates are brought together in quantum.
- This Defines the channel, and the channel becomes a consistent life force expression.
- When the channel is defined, the two cooresponding centers that are connected to the channel will also be defined.
If only a gate is activated (not the full channel) the human will looks for ways to connect to the gate on the other side of the channel. This is how we learn from others and become conditioned.
Strategies
How the centers are defined and how they are connected via the channels determines the human’s aura type.
There are 4 aura types and one subtype. Each aura type has an ideal way of interacting with its environment (people, places, situations, ideas). This is called your Strategy.
Overview of each Aura Type and Strategy:
-
Generator - When the sacral center is defined, the human is generating energy from within the body, and the aura type is called Generator. When the sacral center is connected to the throat center by any means of circuitry, the Generator aura changes into a variation called Manifesting Generator. 70% of humanity is either a Generator or a Manifesting Generator. The rest of the aura types do not have a sacral definition. The Generator/MG aura is magnetic, always pulling information from its environment. Sometimes their aura will react and move them towards or away from their environment. This is called a response. The Generator strategy is to wait for that response before taking action. The strategy is to wait for their body to tell them what to do, and then they can act.
-
Manifestor - When a motor (solar plexus, ego, or root center) is connected to the throat center, but the sacral center is NOT activated, the human is a Manifestor. 8% of humanity is a Manifestor. Their aura is intense and holds density so that it will push against other auras. The density of their aura resists being influenced by others and will move other auras out of the way if necessary. When they get inspired to take action, it will impact others. Therefore, their strategy is to inform who will be impacted by their actions, to reduce resistance to their frequency.
-
Projector - When no motors are connected to the throat center, and the sacral is not defined, but there are other activated channels in the chart, the human is a Projector. 20% of humanity is a Projector. Their aura penetrates other people's auras, and can connect the soul of another person. This allows the Projector to see and read the information in other auras to provide guidance. The clarity of the guidance is determined by how clear and deconditioned the Projector’s energy is. This deep soul connection needs to be invited by the other person, otherwise if the Projector has not been asked by the other to connect and guide them, the Projector’s aura can feel intrusive. Therefore, their strategy is to wait for the invitation from the other person before connecting and guiding.
-
Reflector - When no activated channels or centers exist, the human is a Reflector. Less than 2% of humanity is a Reflector. Their aura acts like a mirror for society, similar to how the moon reflects the sunlight. Their auras will brush up against other auras to experience them, and others can see themselves in the Reflector. Reflectors are highly sensitive to the forces in their environment, especially planetary transits. Because of this sensitivity, they need time to determine what is them, and what is their environment. For this reason, their strategy is to wait for a lunar cycle (28 days) before making decisions.

Each of the 4 auras including the subtype work together in the universal creation lifecycle.
Let’s compare the function of each aura to the plant kingdom:
-
Manifestors are the soil of creation, receiving the “seed” downloads from Source.
-
Projectors are the roots, pulling in the resources and creating systems.
-
Manifesting Generators are the sprouts, bringing creation into reality
-
Generators are the plants, building with persistent energy over its lifespan
-
Reflectors are the fruit that Source tastes to determine which new creations are sent for download
Authorities
Authority is wisdom and knowledge from your body: not your mind, others, or the environment. The wisdom inside of you enables you to make the best decisions for your life.
There are 7 authority types, and some have no inner authority.
Emotional - While there are many inner authority types, half of the planet has emotional authority due to an activated solar plexus center. The solar plexus is a motor experienced as an emotional wave of lows and highs. The human body creates the emotional wave via a mechanic pumping chemicals in a pattern that can be measured and tracked. These emotions create snapshots in time that provide different perspectives of your relationships and situations in life. Tracking your emotions and giving yourself time to process them fully provides more clarity about who you are and what you want.
All the other non-emotional authorities are receptive to other people's emotions - this is somatic empathy. If the undefined solar plexus identifies with those emotions (thinking those emotions they are feeling are their own), their ability to make decisions can also be impacted.
Regardless of whether the solar plexus is active or dormant, it’s important for all types to feel their emotions, not resist them, and release them.
Sacral - Generators (sacral activated) that do not have the solar plexus activated are considered Sacral Generators. Their aura is the authority for their body response, having a gut instinct of yes or no.
Splenic - If you have the spleen center defined but none of the above, you’re either a splenic projector or manifestor. The body picks up on the frequency of safety or not, and gives subtle signals that are sent out only once.
Ego, Self-Projected, Environmental, Lunar, or No Inner Authority are rare authorities with specialized gifts.
Incarnation Map
The bodygraph shows our incarnation map: who we are and what we’ve come to learn.
Our bodygraph reveals to us our aura type, strategy, and authority. This is how we get realigned back to the essence of who we are - through the form, not the mind.
Every person has a potentially perfect frequency, but we live in a world of illusion where we make decisions from conditioning.
Making decisions with our conscious mind by first considering the information we receive from our unconscious body is how we decondition.
When we understand our strategy and authority and start listening to our form to move through the world and make decisions, our personality slowly starts getting attuned to the perfect frequency of our human design.

Experimenting
To truly resonate with your strategy and authority in your being, you need to experiment with it.
As Ra would say: Don’t believe me. Test it out.
All experiments are valid, and sometimes breaking the advice is the best way to learn its truth for you, or not. Failed experiments can add a greater understanding overall. So fuck around and find out!
My questions to you:
- What happens when you follow your strategy and authority?
- How about just your strategy and NOT your authority?
- What happens when you purposefully follow neither?
- How are you testing it?
- How are you tracking it?
- What are you finding?
