The G or Identity center is the seat of the soul in Human Design. There is probably no more empathetic or vulnerable part of the design then when this center is open or undefined. Someone who has the open G is influenced at birth forward by the identities of those around them. Early on they can be swayed, pressured and conditioned to be someone they are not. There openness, that white diamond at the center of the chart is like a portal. It can get clogged with their parents ideas of who they should be. It can be overly influenced to aspire to be just like an older sibling or maybe the opposite of what they represent. But the beauty of the open G is to be empathetic and recognize aspects of other individuality’s so what comes forth are the aspects that resonate on a deeper level.
The open G that finds their place and allows their soulful identity to shine through is a magical thing. To see that watch the video in an earlier post, click here, where Sarah Maclachlan releases her soul through the window of the Open G in her song Angel.
But like a window the Identity of an Open G can become smudged. Because of this the person with an open G needs to take care to shield and even coddle their openness. Comfort is a big factor. The size, the design and the layout of the rooms they spend time in are very important to the open G. They need to be comfortable in their surroundings. An open G that walks into a house or restaurant that is not deigned to their comfort will want to leave. They know right away whether it is right or not. This is an energetic thing that only they can know for themselves. If you are with an open G then it is important for you to respect that openness and help them comfort the G. Take the seat at the table that they shy away from, don’t force and open G to move into an apartment or house that they are having second thoughts about. If they are not comfortable there now they never will be.
This comfort that the open F seeks is also a barometer. When the open G finds its place of comfort then it is in the flow of humanity. Like the flow of the river, if they are comfortable then they will be in the right place, at the right time, to meet the right people and or have the right experience to move them forward on their path in life.
On Saturday, December 12, 2009 I hosted a show talking about human design at an introductory level. I was joined by my co-host who is also a Human Design Specialist, Rev. Ric from http://revric.webs.com/humandesign.htm.
To listen to the show Click HERE.
In the show we talked about these aspects of Human Design.
Here are some charts that we looked at during the show.
How do you make decisions in your life?
Are you methodical and analytic, scientific, emotional, spiritual or whimsical?
While we all may have a different way of going about decision making the thing we share in common is the impact they have on our daily life and the bigger decisions impact the path we travel on ours days here on earth.
So who you give authority for making those decisions is a BIG DEAL!
Those of us that make the logical, scientific decisions for the most part are giving our mind the authority.
For those who are ruled by a set of tribal or societal rules you could call it moral authority.
For those who make decisions in the moment it could be whimsical, emotional or just an awareness, depending on where your focus is or is not.
But for most of us we have come to this decision making by default, through trial and error or experience. If you look at your Human Design, you were designed with some inner guidance mechanisms that if you pay attention to will help you make better decisions. Here is a table and some charts that will help outline how you are best served depending on your authority.
|
Authority Hierarchy |
||
| Authority / Type |
Defined Centers |
Approach |
| Emotional Solar Plexus
Projector,Manifestor, Generator & Manifesting Generator |
Solar Plexus |
Ride your emotional wave and wait for clarity. Clarity only occurs over time. You need to wait for that clarity or redo the hasty decisions that do not serve you in the long run. |
| Splenic Awareness Generated
Generator & Manifesting Generator |
Spleen & Sacral |
You have an inner knowing in the moment powered by the Sacral. You can use the Sacral response* by engaging your sacral, |
| Sacral Expressed Generated
Generator & Manifesting Generator |
Sacral |
The sacral response* is your guide. |
| Splenic Awareness Projected
Projector |
Spleen |
You know in the moment the correct action for you. This is not the mind or following a set of rules it is a knowingness. As your energy is projected look for feedback from those around you to help tweak your decisions. |
| Splenic Awareness Manifested
Manifestor |
Spleen & Throat & (Root or Will) |
You know in the moment the correct action for you. Inform others as you make their way and measure the impact you create. |
| Ego Manifested
Manifestor |
Will & Throat |
Follow the drive to spark and initiate the new things that you do.Inform those that you impact like your friends and family before you act. |
| Self Projected
Projectors |
G/Identity |
Bounce your thoughts and ideas of your friends and family. Look at the reaction and reflection to adjust your path. |
| None (or outer Authority)
Projectors and Reflectors |
Head and/or Ajna and/or Throat or no centers | Clarity comes from action and interaction from your environment. |
| *Sacral Response – The sacral response is avaiable to all beings with a defined sacral center. By asking a series of questions to the sacral being and having them respond with an Uh-huh (for yes) and an Un-Uh (for no) you engage the sacral motor. If you keep the mind out of it an purely respond from the sacral you will get clear answers for the direction you should take.

Projectors in Human Design are here to guide, lead, manage and direct us. They are here to Project the way. They have an energy configuration that is very open so they can take in the energy from the world around them and project it out to help guide us all. Projectors make up about 20% of the population, so with 1 manager in every 5 people that’s a pretty good ratio, almost like somebody had a plan. 😉
However we are all not always open to being guided. Especially if that guidance is coming from our 6 year old child. So projectors can face an uphill battle find their place to do the guiding and leading they were designed at birth to do. The hierarchy of our schools and authoritarian institutions are not necessarily receptive to direction from junior members. A teacher does not always smile upon correction or direction from their students. When a projector child enters the work place world there again they may struggle as they will typically be give n a full course meal of listen, follow orders and don’t rock the boat.
This is one group of children and adults that thrive at alternative schools and businesses. The authoritarian model is non existant or less dominate giving the projectors more of an invitation to express their inner design.
So what is a projector to do? It is so simple. The projectors strategy is Wait to be invited. But the waiting can be hard and invitations do not always come so easily. So while the theory is simple it is not always so easy or painless to follow.
Why is this strategy important. Think about some group situations that you have been. Typically, in the cases where the leader is invited, like being elected or appointed by their peers, their is a more harmonious relationship between the group and the members. In our other experiences, where we are assigned a teacher, assigned a manager the road may have been less harmonious. In fact in a lot of the stereotypical work place situations the “I hate the boss” mentality prevails or is at least near 50%. Even in politics, in a close or hotly contested election, there is a large percentage of the population that holds some resentment because they did not invite that person to be President. In a lopsided victory there is less resentment because a clear majority feel they have invited this person to be president.
So with this knowledge I invite you to help yourself, help your friends and help your family. If you are a projector look for invitations in your reality. Not out on TV or the Internet but in your life, in spoken, written or physical form. They may originate out in the ethosphere but let someone say to you I think you should try that school or I think you should apply for that job, you would be good at that. If you are not a projector but have a projector friend. sister or child INVITE THEM! When your 6 year old starts telling you how you could save time preparing dinner, invite them to tell you all about it instead of ignoring them.
Invitations are a projectors key to empowerment. If you invite the projectors around you everybody wins.
A Human Design chart is fixed at the time of one’s birth with specific gate activations as shown by the red & black bars in the body graph. Those gate activations are determined by the positions of the Sun, Earth, Moon and other planets; however, as we all know the planets don’t stand still. They continue on their journey through the celestial heavens and continue to have an influence on our daily lives. 
Although they no longer have any permanent effect on the gates in our Designs, they nevertheless exert their particular form of expression on each gate they traverse. As they move from one gate to the next, they create different conditioning fields that affect our entire society as a human collective. These changing conditioning fields are known as the “Transits” and may have beneficial and/or devastating impacts on our lives. The purpose of the Weekly Gate Activations newsletter is to alert you to these potential impacts.
The good news is the conditioning of the Transits is only temporary. The bad news is the conditioning of the Transits is only temporary. Whatever effect they have, beneficial or not, that effect will change by the next day. It is important to understand that these impacts are only the energetic expression of that day and that tomorrow will bring a new expression. The best way to make sure you don’t get caught up in the fickleness of the Transits is to live out your Design by following your Strategy and Authority. Following your specific Strategy is like having an umbrella to protect your from the driving rain; honoring your Authority is like having a flashlight when the power goes out during the storm. Together, they’ll get you through any passing energetic “weather front” the Transits might whip up.

Manifestors are here to be the creative spark to the flame of creation. This is quick energy. It needs to embody that creative juice and flow. They strike and something happens, something is initiated, something is kindled.
But Manifestors don’t function in a vacuum. They get things started but they need Generators, Projectors and Reflectors to get the thing of the ground. If we are talking a high tech product or idea the Manifestor sparks it but the Generators come in and do the work guided, lead and managed by the projectors. The Reflectors lend reflection to give feedback on how things are going. At least that’s the way it should work if we are all living our design.
So to make things happen beyond the first spark Manifestors must inform. That is their strategy. If the Manifestor does not inform, the people around the Manifestor don’t know to come and pitch in to get the thing of the ground. There is a delicate balance for the Manifestor between informing and doing. When you stop what your doing to inform it slows things down. Part of the beauty of Manifestor energy is the quickness. That quickness is the spark of creation or initiation that leads to manifestation. Without the quickness there is not as much spark and without the spark, the thing or the project might not take flight.
In Human Design what makes a Manifestor and Manifestor is to have a defined Throat center that is connected to at least 1 of the following 3 motor centers; the Will, the Root, or the Solar Plexus. (There is a forth motor of course which is the Sacral but having this with a motorized Throat would make you a Manifesting Generator, not a Manifestor.)
There are so many aspects that make up design it can be misleading to stereotpye the different types of Manifestors, but I do so in order for you to get a sense of the flavor of this energy. What follows is a description of the underlying push of the energy for the three basic types of Manifestors.
Types of Manifestors
Ego or Willful Manifestor
A Manifestor whose Throat is powered by the Will is called an Ego Manifestor. The Ego Manifestor will typically display some of that pushy energy associated with will power. “I want it” or ” This is how I want it.” Ego Manifestors can be driven to be on their own trip. Remember this channel from the Will to the Throat is about hunting and gathering. This design is possibly all about collecting the toys or material goods. We need stuff to survive.
Emotional Manifestor Chart
The Emotional Manifestor may have will energy but they also have the emotional wave which will control their manifestation. They have less clarity in the moment as they need to ride their emotional wave. They not only have to maintain the balance of informing but they also have to maintain the balance of acting and waiting for clarity. With any emotional design clarity only comes over time from riding the emotional wave to the high and low points. The net result is that this type of Manifestor is not suited to always act quickly. In all they will probably have less true manifesting opportunities than a pure Ego or Splenic Manifestor. Here are two charts, one with the Will connected to the Throat and one with no Will connection to the Throat.
Splenic Aware Manifestor
The third type of Manifestor is called Splenic aware. In this case a motor center connects to the Throat thru the Spleen. The Splenic aware Manifestor is empowered with the knowingness in the now that the Spleen provides. This is probably the quickest acting Manifestor. Their action will generally be on a more global basis and less on the “its about me” basis. This is because the energy can flow directly from the Spleen to the Throat or Spleen through the G/Identity to the Throat. In this configuration it is not flavored by the “me” of the Will center. It is more likely to find the Splenic Aware Manifestor acting in a more altruistic way.
Backgroun info on what the class covered:
How many times have you made a decision only to find it was not the right decision for you? That your decision made your life more difficult not easier.
In this teleclass I will get you started on understanding your design and on the way to decisions which will make your life better and easier for you.
This Teleclass will cover the history and basics of human design and focus on the 5 types and how they are designed to interact. By living your design you can lower the resistance in your life and make it easier. By living your type and strategy it allows the universe to bring things to you instead of you having to do all the work.
Make life easier for yourself.

The past 7 days has been anything but an easy ride. Someone very close to my wife Nina and I went into the hospital last Tuesday and it has required a great deal of focus, effort and emotional support to help them. On Friday I came down with the flu and spent the next 72 hours moving from bed to couch to bed. Thank goodness I feel much better today! However, how we spent our last 7days is not at all what we had on our schedule.
Our plan was a two days of vacation and then focus on our businesses to roll out new offerings for the fall, but life had a different plan. In life things happen and we need to roll with the changes. In Human Design 50% of us are emotional and will in some form ride the waves of emotion. However another 40% of us create an emotional wave with the people we are in relationship with, close friends, roomates, family or coworkers.
What this means is that almost all of us are riding some sort of emotional wave. In Human Design if you are riding an emotional wave it means that you do not have clarity in the moment. Without clarity you can not consistently make the correct decision for you intantaneously. From the high joyful point we can wear rose colored glasses and all options may look good. As we take the emotional slide down to the midpoint or low point we get a different perspective and our decisions may change or become confused. It is only when we ride the wave for a while, like a surfer waiting for the right one, that we gain overall perspective and clarity.
We live in a land where the rhetoric is “stick by your decisions”. That is a good mantra because it helps build consistency. However since 90% will live emotionally at least some of the time, our decisions become clearer over time. When it comes to making decisions the early bird is not the best option for those 90%.
So while we bob on the emotional sea of life we can get pretty frustrated. We are not always ready for the next wave that may wash over our heads. But if we can roll with that and stay focused on our issue or challenge then we will receive clarity over time and at some point you will know from deep inside the change or the decision to make and you can turn some pages to move on until the next opportunity comes along.
Here is one of my favorite songs by Reo Speedwagon that inspired today’s post.

In this song Jewel epitomizes the gate 55 line 5. As you can see from her chart she carries this in her unconscious sun. Your sun and earth gates are the most influential in your design. Gate 55.5 is known to be the embodiment voice of Spirit or the voice of God. It carries the spirit which is the definition of gate 55 and in line 5 it is projected outward for the world to see. Listen to the song and see how it shines through.
In additon, Jewel voices the energy of the defined throat and the empathy for the open throat. In this song she sings, “Where there is a man who has no voice, I will go there singing.”.

This line from a Beatles song was going through my head as I awoke from a dream this morning. The dream had been about the 37-40 channel in Human design which involves community and aloneness. The 40 (gate 40) is about being a part of the family and community. Community has rules and to be part and parcel you follow the rules and do your part. The gate 37 is about being alone. You can do your own thing as there are no rules to follow. Being part of a family or community is a bargain where you give up certain freedoms and take on certain tasks to be a part of the community.
The story in the dream was about a person I recently encountered. They were very willful and often pushy about what they wanted to do or what they wanted to have. Most of the time they wanted it NOW! In Human Design this willful push comes from the gate 21 the Hunter Gatherer. When this is a push to manifest in a purely individual way supercedes the flow of the community or family and it can push the person out of the community into aloneness.
The message here is clear. Being part of community or family is all about going with the flow. We can still get what we want most of the time and still be part of our family, friends or community as long as we do it within the flow. The more we push to make things happen our way, on our schedule, the more we break the bonds that tie us to the groups that we want to be a part of, and the more we push ourselves toward aloneness. There is a high degree of aloneness in the world and I believe a lot of it is driven by instant gratification. Let me take care of me right now. But falling for the instant gratification is actually punishing us with aloneness down the road.
Compromise is the key. Don’t allow the ego control and the push for now, now, now. Make compromise and go with the flow and you will find yourslef part of the whole, your family, and or your group. Compromise, you’ll be glad you did!

In May of 2009 I gave a Free Teleclass talking about Human Design and the 5 types. Listen to the class to learn your about your type and your strategy.
I ran across this song yesterday, Seasons of Love from Rent the movie and musical. As I was listening to it I got chills and that energy surge from deep inside that can only be identified as my life source.
As I was thinking about the song I remembered I had the same experience with this song when I first saw the play years ago. I guess that is the beauty of an open Head and open Ajna as you can experience the same joys over an over again like they are fresh.
As I was driving along last night I was contemplating, “What is it about this song that sings to me?” The song is about a year in life. Minute to minute and day to day the joys, sorrows and the in between. And yes it’s about Love. That’s when it hit me. This song sings to my Human Design.
My cross is the vessel of Love. I have the gates of the love of humanity(gate 15) and the love of the body(gate 46), the physical experience we carry out here on earth. I have the love of the expression of the self(gate10) and the love of universal love(gate25). If you listen to the song and look at this aspect of my design which as the incarnation cross is a core piece of my design, how could I not be so moved?
Now I will admit that I have been blessed to have a design centered around love which may be lloked at as an easier design. But we all have a part in this grand play. We need crosses of Sphinx to give us direction, we need crosses of Laws and Rulership to guide us and give us boundaries, we need crosses of Tension and Confrontation to help keep us together and move through things so we aren’t stuck. I could go on but the point is that we are all hear to do our part.
Take a few minutes and think about, “What song or songs really move you deeply and energetically?” Examine what they are about either litterally or metaphorically. Once you figure that out you have an arrow directing you as to why you are here.
Enjoy.
We are born on to this earth in a vessel called the human body. It is a intertwining of our ethereal spirit with a mechanical and physical vehicle. From day one expectations are put on us. We are all expected to walk, talk, play and be social. But we are not all created equal. We are as unique as snowflakes and though we may look alike, we act and preform very differently from each other. Human Design is one method of exploring the differences and knowing the potential of what we are meant to be and what we are not.
Many of us go through life living what in Human Design is called the Not Self. We carry out lving up to those expectations that were placed on us or that influenced us when we are young. Some even believe we may carry these forward from past lives. Regardless of where they come from, your Human design has defined energies and ways of expression that you are designed to live. These are the colored in areas of your chart. This definition gives you a consistency of expression and behavior that you can carry throughout your life.
The Not Self is the areas of your chart that are white. When we are unduly influenced to live out characteristics in the Not Self we are destined to struggle eventually. The reason is simple. We do not have energy defined to do that. If we try to live the Not Self the energy is inconsistent. Since it draws on energy we don’t have it puts a strain on the parts of the body that those areas in the chart have a direct connection to. Over time we may end up burning out our body in certain parts.
Take for example the Heart/Will center. Our society expects a lot of people to use will power to get things done. Yet only 1/8 of the poulation has it. There are four major parts of the body connected to the will center. The heart muscle, the gall bladder, the kidneys/blood and the stomach. This reads like a laundry list of our societies top ailments. Perhaps the best Health care reform plan would be to give everyone their Human Design chart and have them live their Human Design. It sure would be a lot easier.
What got me on this topic was an aritcle I read in Sport Illustrated. The article was about a well known baseball player named Alex Rodriguez or nick named A-Rod. He is most notably known for his record contract, that he signed in 2001 for 10 years and 252 million dollars. Great expectations were placed on Alex for that amount of money. In fact so much so that despite the fact that he is a very good player he has not lived up to them all. If you look at his Human Design he is the cross of the unexpected. So what do you expect, not the expected, atleast not all the time. That doesn’t mean disaster but it does mean that he will have sudden unexpected things pop up in his life. That is his energy and his design. The opening day game after signing his big contract, he dropped a routine out, slipped on the grass and fell down and tripped on his shoe laces. Unexpected or not!;-)
One of the biggest expectations placed on Alex was for him to be a team builder and leader. There are two things in his chart that suggest that wasn’t going to happen. The first is that his energy for leadership, the gate 31 is more of a Socialist leader. While it could work if he was properly supported, like Obama, it is more likely that in an environment like professional sports is going to be more of an alpha leader with the gate 7. In addition, Alex doesn’t have the channel of community, (gates 37 & 40). In fact he only has the gate 40 which is the gate of being alone. A person with a gate 40 will choose to be alone if the personal freedoms that they loose as part of being in a community are not worth it. Alex has sometimes been labeled as an individual and not a team player but it really is not his fault. Alex is just living his design.
We are all born into a body that is wired to do many things but not all things. We would all be healthier and happier if we lived our Human Design. Are you living yours?

Karen Carpenter and her brother Richard together as the Carpenters clearly demonstrate the emotions of an undefined Solar Plexus. Neither of the 2 have a defined Solar Plexus the center tied directly to emotions. This is why although many of their songs were about being in love or “saying “Goodbye to Love”, they could put that out their with the same tone, intensity and a smile on their face.
It is almost as if the emotion is intellectualized in their songs. Whether they sing “Top of the World” or “Rainy days and Mondays”, while the words have emotional impact, and the instruments convey the mood, the emotions underlying their vocal expressions are almost neutral and not nearly conveying the joy or despair of the lyrics. Now contrast that with the pained expression by the band Nazareth in their sing “Love Hurts”.
The undefined Solar Plexus can empathize and experience the swings in emotions from sadness to despair and every flavor in between. This is what helped Karen and Richard write so many songs about Love and hardship but they couldn’t live and express that on stage consistently at the true level of those emotions.
Below is Karens chart and if you hover over the red circled areas you will learn more about her design and how it manifeted in her lifetime.
Sarah McLachlan is a beautiful singer and song writer. In this you tube she explains how she came to write the song Angel. The song expresses the empathy and extreme sensitivity of the open G/Identity center. She talks about life on the road and despite being surrounded by loved ones she needs something more, the arms of an angel to comfort the open G.
In addition, the song takes on the struggle of the gate 28, the struggle with meaning in life. For a musician the road can be endless. Despite a rewarding career it can beg the question, “What is this all about?”
Sarah explains how she came to write the song in 3 or 4 hours, demonstrating the power of the channel of abstraction, gates 64-47. While Sarah doesn’t have the gate 64 this is an example of her amplifying that energy around her, perhaps even from the writer of the Rolling Stones article she was reading when the inspiration hit her. Yes even writing is an energetic expression that you can amplify. From this inspiration she brought the pieces of the sensations and feelings of life on the road for all musicians and assembled them into this masterful expression of a song called Angel.
In much of her work, Sarah utilizes her open throat to bring a wide variety of sounds and expressions to life. Her songs often very on topic, pitch, rhythm and beat.
All of what I described is outlined in red in her chart below.
Follow the link below the chart to listen to her explanation of the song and then her beautiful rendition of the Ode to the open G.
A while ago I listened to a SmartLess podcast that featured George Clooney as the guest. SmartLess is a podcast hosted by Will Arnett, Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes. They typically interview a celebrity guest, in a free form style, about their career, family life and other topics that pop up. In this podcast, George […]
