Coaching by Design - Master Your Not-Self

Are you a coach or consultant who wants to use Human Design in your practice? Do you know just enough to be dangerous? Maybe you took a weekend crash course, or started official training and you’re chomping at the bit to use it! This video addresses the most potent and powerful concept to master in working with a Human Design chart.

The Most Common Mistake You Can Make in Human Design

Many people nowadays are looking for truth, find human design, maybe take a weekend course and start reading charts. While we certainly appreciate how simple tools like Type, Strategy, and Authority can be powerful and easy to talk about, applying the information is a different story across the billions alive today. Check out this video for the most common mistake newcomers to Human Design make.

Which Human Design Gates cause Thyroid Issues?

The Biology of the Throat Center, our communication and action function, is the Thyroid which controls out metabolism functions. Read this article on the Throat Center first if you are new to Human Design.

I am designed to share with you my findings to help change your Fate as this is my life's work (3/5 Cross of Contagion 1). I find it highly interesting that Ra claims any throat gate used improperly can cause Thyroid damage; 20 million Americans have Thyroid issues. So, a quote from Ra:

"When throat gates do not operate according to the person's definition and type and authority, they're always going to result in problems in the thyroid system and the thyroid system, it affects all our metamorphic processes in the body.

So, it's very important to see this knowledge of where your voice is, where it is you, where it is not, is the first lesson in human design about the throat.

Like me, if I keep on saying, I believe, every time I try to use that aspect of my throat, that does not belong to me. I do damage to my physical throat.

I do damage to my thyroid system and I do damage to the way in which metamorphosis takes place in me because I'm trying to do something that has nothing to do with me and I'm trying to use something that is not designed to work for me.

The 33 is under pressure to express itself but to express itself under the right conditions, and that goes back to you living your design and entering into things properly, How often I repeat this." Ra Uru Hu

So, which gates can cause Thyroid issues? According to Ra, any Throat gates used incorrectly. However, the energy connected to the Throat is more likely to cause dysfunction when used incorrectly.

I have the 33 in Saturn, my Judge, and Discipline. It is where I get punished when not obeying my Jupitarian law 23.5 of "Assimilation: the practical acceptance of the values of another path." Both are throat gates... I would like to share my values, learning, and discovery with you if you'd like to hear what I know about this experiential Human Design path? First, a video on loving the shit out of your not-self:

My Uranus Opposition brings in the 45.5 Mercury, giving me an ego learning program about the Channel of Money, a design of Materialism. A 21.3 does not do well with a boss, under the control of someone else with decisions made over their head. Do you know that feeling of helplessness (“there is nothing I can do about this”, “my hands are tied”) or of not being in control of your work situation? I do. 

Here is a private video where I share my experiences as a Gate 21 in the 3rd line thanks to my conscious Venus (values and relating) right before I was diagnosed with Hashimotos. 

Thankfully, I was grateful to discover these symptoms I’m experiencing are considered to be the healing phase, according to German New Medicine.

In German New Medicine, Hashimotos is considered a "hanging healing" and in a right-handed female like me, due to repeated trauma of a powerlessness conflict. So I asked on my FB wall to see if anyone else with the 21 or 45 could relate. Can you post there if you do, too? 

I also have the 8th gate twice in an unconsciously defined channel, thanks to Earth and Jupiter. As you can see from my Uranus Opposition (our typical “mid-life crisis” or as I like to call it, Maturing Cycle of your 40’s) I also have SIX additional throat gate activations I am learning from in this current life experience.

This body can feel a lot of energy is moving while time seems to alternately stand still when I’m in so much physical pain… and speed up randomly as the year swiftly passes…. Surrendering to witnessing the madness of the conditioned mind both within and without, I sink further into self-care and care of my students as best I can in this chaotic world.

Replies to this post:

Thank you for writing and speaking about the connection between HD and the thyroid. I have Hashimoto's, and my P. Sun is at gate 21.3. I'm a female 3/6 Emotional Generator, Rax of Tension 1.  I have a completely open Throat and Head, plus undefined Ajna, G, Ego, and Spleen. My thyroid is too destroyed to heal because I've had Hashimoto's since 2002.

I always thought there was something wrong with me for resenting the control of supervisors at work, but I recently read Ra's description of the 21.3 and finally understood. The powerless feeling and anger started in childhood from not being allowed to explore and make my own decisions, just as Ra described. 

“I've got 62, 56, 35, 31, 8, 33, and 45, with 45 doubled by Uranus. 21 doesn't connect it. But it's interesting to me that my maternal grandfather died of throat cancer and my Mom's thyroid got radiated when she was in her late 30's early 40's (due, I suspect, to her amazing single-definition/manifesting generator/undefined emotional center power to blow us all out of the water with her emotions). I feel she fried her thyroid after going through many years of bi-polarity.

I come to an appreciation of the throat as the fifth chakra, will or willingess, via metaphysical and spiritual studies, and can easily recognize its effects on my metabolism through my emotions. I'm a 5/2 Projector, Left Angle Cross of the Clarion, and the only channel that's going on in my throat center is the 8/1 - with conscious Saturn 31.6 and unconscious Mercury 7.3.”

My mom has a thyroid issue and her gate 45 is activated.

“I have 21-45 & I had thyroid surgery 23 years ago. My diagnosis was hyperactive thyroid glands.” 

My sister and I both have Hashimotos diagnosis for many years. I looked at both our charts just now.

  • My Throat is undefined. Her Throat is defined.

  • My Ego is defined. Her Ego is undefined.

  • I'm a Projector. She's a Generator.

  • We both have defined Gate 21. Undefined Gate 45.

  • In those 2 centers, the only other common defined Gate is 40.

  • Both right handed (since you mentioned it)

  • Early childhood powerlessness conditioning "children should be seen and not heard" mentality from father - that programming is still pretty reactive when I am stressed. I can only guess that she also has issues with this due to conversations I had with her many years ago.

I Survived the Coronavirus (Covid-19) here's my Personal Experience

Update of blog posting is 5/8/2020. This is a journal of my journey through the last couple of months of Coronavirus Quarantine which hit my household really hard, with a huge hospital bill, lost wages, lost clients, and lost opportunity. Yet hey! I’m still alive to tell the tale. My chest still aches, and the cough lingers, though it doesn’t hurt to breathe anymore, it hurts to talk too much but I’m finally able to be teaching and do what I love again. Here’s my experience interspersed with the lessons I learned.

A personal perspective on the Coronavirus

March 16th, 2020
When something hits me close to home, I am designed to share my experiences to help empower and advise when things do not work. My job for others is to universalize what's practical through empowering a new direction through my living example of walking the path and sharing how I feel along the journey. It's part of how I experience being a Cross of Contagion - an innocent Instrument of Fate who can step in and change the fate of others through learning, experience and discovery.

For the science-minded people, this is helpful to know - up to the minute data on our current coronavirus crisis.

Ra said our global human immune system is failing. As a 3/5 myself who has experienced the pain of things being broken, I have practical information to share with you so that hopefully, we can be more prepared and take this seriously.

On Mondays, I teach my Living Your Projector Design Success Secrets series. As a public service, I co-created a special presentation with a fellow professional Fran Hale on the Splenic Center, our bodygraph’s function for health, safety, security, physical awareness, and well-being. Here is the recording.

Remember to use your Authority to navigate this crisis. Because this COVID-19 is not something to sneeze at.

Unfortunately, I’ve been sneezing and it sucks. It is rare to have a cold or flu make it so you cannot breathe. With this virus: it’s common. That is potentially life-threatening and this is very serious for certain populations.

My husband has not been sick enough to go to the doctor for 15 years, because he is obsessed with health, eats a diet that is appropriate to keep himself strong, lean and fit, never touches sugars, alcohol or drugs, and takes immunity boosters. It was shocking to me to see him in a crisis of being unable to breathe, with crushing chest pain, asking me to take him to the hospital. We thought he was dying; I have never seen him in so much pain, and he has a high pain tolerance.

Even though he might have been exposed due to travel to California and travelers here from overseas, they didn’t test him for the virus because they couldn’t.

Again, the most important thing I advise is to self-quarantine. Unless you’re in an emergency medical situation like my husband was a few days ago, because you can’t breathe.

My daughter fell feverishly-ill at the beginning of March, (later addition: I thought this was a relapse, I found out later that the new Montessori school I’d put her in Sedona had children in China in January so likely that’s where she got it) relapsing from whatever she had in San Diego where they didn’t test her, only gave her antibiotic eye drops. I have been fighting whatever it is without being able to teach since the 17th. Never had a flu fever with a dry cough without a resulting runny nose before.

I share this because people need to know, our nurse strongly advised having enough emergency food on hand to last our family for two months.

I was shocked. I asked her why. The things I’d read said two weeks. She said China is in its third month of this.

Nobody is experienced with this new strain. Avoidance is our best chance at slowing this down so we don't overwhelm our doctors. There’s still no treatment other than ride it out.

***If you feel you cannot breathe: Go to the hospital IMMEDIATELY***

Because we live in an affluent retirement and vacation area where people have money to prepare: our stores got quickly near wiped out of certain things. Meats. Paper goods. Canned goods. Dry goods. Frozen food. Everyone stocked up... and now imagine even a handful of people rushed to the hospital because they cannot breathe.

I did that with my husband. We live in a beautiful community where the median age is 58, approximately 57% higher than the Arizona average of 37. Millions of tourists flock here yearly from around the world. Yet West Sedona is such a tiny town we have one ER with 2 beds, and the other one, when we went in, was already taken. How many ventilators are going to be available? Not nearly enough if we don’t stop spreading it!
People have a right to know that just because there are little to no reported cases does not mean we don't have exposure. We need to be as safe as we can.

And though my husband does everything possible for his health, things the average population doesn't, he got sick and developed bilateral pneumonia. He’s still weak but doing better now; so is my daughter. I thank my lucky stars I'm still breathing easily, and that my students understand when I had to postpone a class yesterday to rest.

I calmly advise everyone to please take this seriously. Please be responsible and do everything possible to help us be safer.

Love Yourself,

Laveena

My Coronavirus Experience Update: March 23, 2020

My husband Ohryn is recovering well after an emergency hospital visit on March 13th for sudden crushing chest pains. After all kinds of scans and tests (they were unable to test for coronavirus) he was diagnosed with the development of bilateral pneumonia. In talking over the phone with our Doctor, she says in her professional opinion it is definitely Coronavirus.

Three weeks later, I've had to cancel all of my classes and sessions my fight to heal.

Here is the chart for when the Coronavirus first began.

Coronavirus inception Human Design Chart

Coronavirus inception Human Design Chart

See the Splenic Center (brown triangle) connected to the Heart (small red triangle? That's the Channel of Surrender, a design of a Transmitter. It is a channel that is birds, reptiles, and fish have (trans-species between us and them).

Ohryn and I have the 44-26 together (my cool 44's .2 & .5 in both Uranus and his hot 26 in Personality Earth in the 5th line). The air here in Sedona is very dry, which makes our lungs more susceptible to the coronavirus.

We have been isolating at home with our family since my husband was in the hospital - my symptoms suddenly got worse a week later, Thursday morning due to chest pains and shortness of breath. I cried in pain every day except this morning and have been resting and sleeping a lot.

At JovianArchive, we put out a lot of helpful information this week to help everyone understand what is going on from a Human Design Perspective. I'm sharing the videos and links to Ra's take on the Bird Flu epidemic and videos that are normally for sale on the site.

Don't miss the audio/transcription where Ra is talking about the 44-26 and its relationship to trans-special diseases. No time to read/listen? Read on:

Attention all 4th line profiles and any Gate 44's especially, a heads up, even if you feel healthy please use your Authority and pay special attention....

You are highly likely to transmit the disease if you have it; you are designed to be carriers to your network. It takes 5-6 days for the symptoms to develop after you've been infected, by then you could have gotten many people sick, which floods our hospitals with people who need to be helped and overwhelms the system, increasing the likelihood that people will die unnecessarily.

Remember to use your Authority to navigate this crisis.

I noticed that the age group most likely to die are those who were born in 1935. So I created a chart to see what gate Pluto was in then. Gate 62, which is in Opposition to the 61, where we have had Pluto sitting lately along with Jupiter and Saturn.

Being that the average Pluto Opposition is 130 years, it is very rare for someone to live past that cycle. Pluto has been moving very fast lately as it is on a big elliptical orbit as compared to other planets, so the Gate 62 Pluto generation is experiencing their Plutonic Opposition and it makes sense that many would leave this plane in the last transformation of the form - death.

My message to everyone is: please follow your Authority and if correct, stay home to help flatten the curve as millions of lives are at stake. ISOLATE unless you are having trouble breathing like my husband was. I have never seen him in so much pain, and he is a very strong and normally healthy person. Our men are more likely to die from this; it has been theorized the gender difference in death percentages is because they are more likely to smoke, so smokers please take note to be extra careful.

In Human Design, we have something called Primary Health System (PHS link to an article that helps explain what that is). I hope my personal experience and perspective shared with these Ra materials help you understand how very serious this can be.

Love Yourself,

Laveena

My Coronavirus Experience Update: March 27, 2020

I have been fighting this illness with everything I can think of, but I developed pneumonia this week. Sleeping ALOT, the malaise is really bad. I thought I was getting better but the fever came back today. Someone gave me a video from Martin Grassinger and he said to eat egg yolks and bovine colostrum. I have been drawn to the yolks a lot lately and I added colostrum in. Staying away from EMFs as much as possible since I have a Right Brain Variable.

My Coronavirus Experience Update: March 29, 2020

My acupuncturist is positive we have coronavirus. She is sick and in quarantine too and treating us remotely. We have 5 confirmed cases in our little valley
(reply to a text from a friend)

My Coronavirus Experience Update: April 2nd, 2020

I have cried twice this morning, in so much chest pain. The headache is massive. My brain is not thinking clearly and when I try to talk I’m not using the right words. I’m doing my best not to panic, so scared, and really bummed out. We just got my husband’s hospital bill and I’m doing my best to stay out of there.

I’ve taken so much vitamin C my kidneys hurt. I have fever, delirium, and chills again today. It feels like my chest and back have slices in it.

(reply to a text from a friend)

My Coronavirus Experience Update: April 4th, 2020

My husband says from his pattern of the illness it looks like I’m getting better because I’m coughing more, which is very painful, rattles the chest so hard yet brings up nothing. I still get winded getting out of bed. The headache from lack of oxygen is near-constant, the lymph nodes are swollen but I haven’t had a Fever in the last two days. Last week I had some pretty bad kidney pains (I was hospitalized for several days with Nephritis in 2011 and they told me my kidneys would never be the same because of it) but thankfully that pain is gone now.

I feel very touched and moved to have all of your support and understanding. I got so very scared last week, crying a lot especially when my defined Splenic husband was not around. Yesterday I contemplated going to the hospital a few towns away to get tested because they still can’t here but I’m not having a hard time breathing where I’m needing that kind of help and I don’t want to pass this on. I don’t wish this kind of pain on anyone. I’m crying in gratitude now. Thank You

(message to my Cartography class)

*The availability of tests has been a problem throughout the course of the pandemic in Arizona. People with symptoms have consistently complained that they are unable to get tested, and the number of positive cases in the state is likely an undercount for that reason.

My Coronavirus Experience Update: April 7, 2020

I’m at the coughing up blood stage today. :-( Still not expectorating any mucus from my lungs. My right lung pain is worse, but I’m not fevered with chills for the second day in a row now. My husband says I’m getting better because he also went through the deep coughing before he got better. I’m whining more about the pain instead of crying or just sleeping/laying listlessly.

It’s horrific not being able to do anything. The coughing is so bad now it sounds like I should be in the hospital, but I don’t want to get others sick unless it is life-threatening and so far I can still breathe. The lungs burn though.

My Coronavirus Experience Update: April 9th, 2020

First some Inspiration, then some Contagion (my Cross) of what is most empowering and practical as I've discovered something that definitely doesn't work, which you'll really want to know in these coming days. You are more likely to develop pneumonia when you do get this illness if you do not heed my warning of what does not work.

Ah, Contagion. The word may bring up fearful images or scary feelings as our world battles with COVID-19.

Coronavirus timeline:
January 19: 100 cases
January 24: 1,000 cases
February 12: 50,000 cases
March 6: 100,000 cases (my daughter and husband fell sick)
March 18: 200,000 cases (here's where I succumbed)
March 26: 500,000 cases
April 2: 1,000,000 cases
April 8: 1,500,000 cases

CORONAVIRUS-image-COVID-19.png

I know this despair personally, the fear and pain of this illness, and the "inconvenience" of being sick dragging on into weeks without teaching my beloved Human Design students.

Three weeks ago, the chest pains and shortness of breath began, so suddenly, I missed conducting a coaching session. The fever and chills raged, then came off and on. It felt like sharp knives were lodged in my chest.

Breathing was so painful right up until today, where now, it's the coughing that really, really, REALLY hurts. This cough is deep and more painful than I've ever experienced (and I had pneumonia as a teen). On Monday, I could taste and smell the blood when I'd cough, but it's still unproductive. Thankfully, no fever today, hence being able to write to you. I still can’t talk long enough without coughing to teach.

When you are ill, you can increase your suffering significantly by railing against what is, and by getting mentally depressed by failing to change what is.

OR, you can look around and see yourself and your life from a new perspective. What is the most important thing?

My mind tried to tell me it was teaching. "I have to warn everyone and help others as soon as possible." Ha! And my husband, my team, my students, kindly kept inviting me to rest, with my body having the final say. Hey Gate 27, care for yourself first! 😉

Impatience with my illness, "I don't have time to be sick!" had to transform into patience. I had no choice. We can turn this impatience weakness into strength, the strength to accept what is. Teaching the acceptance of what is, is my Dharma. Leading you to be successful in the paradox of accepting the Fates while changing your Fate is part of my life's work as a Cross of Contagion.

The awakening of our consciousness through a realignment to the real resonance of our being is at hand.

When you are sick, can you feel that your body is providing a valuable learning experience?

Can you sense it delivering the messages of these symptoms that, as a global pandemic, can put us in touch with the greater whole of our human existence?

This direction we are going in is a terrifying Shock. The end of humanity as we know it is shocking, as our bodies break down, mutate, and transform to prepare for something new to emerge from our specie.

The grief is palpable, can you feel it?

As my body was wracked with fever, I could feel in the morphogenetic connection we all have, that deep panic and the fear. It was so, so scary. My mind raced with what-ifs and anytime my 5/1 Projector husband was not around, I was miserable without his defined splenic comfort and jokes to help me see and know the lighter side of things.

The transits right now bring fear of tomorrow which can ground our shock and help us mutate.

Is it right for you to transform the shock into courage?

Our bodies instinctively adapt on our path of awakening, rooted in fear of what tomorrow will bring, which leads us to listen to our bodies to know what to do.

Pluto and Jupiter are conjunct in 61.5, deeply transforming us from within, teaching us to know our own personal, inner Truth, bringing messages of individuality and empowerment we can no longer ignore.

Despair can turn into strength, resistance can transform into success. The crisis of this illness has become the vehicle for profound worldwide transformation and deep healing from within our own bodies, which survive or make the ultimate transformation of death.

The body of Mother Earth is experiencing a virus that kills the weak and has stilled our population enough to begin healing herself.

When you are correct, you get the illness you need for your personal transformation. These last few weeks, though painful, have been a profound reset for me, as I had to let go of control and surrender to the body's deep need for personal downtime and spaciousness to just space.

My need to share with you about what I've learned living under this Coronavirus pandemic has overcome my body's aversion to being around electronics. The fears, the pain, the helplessness has finally lifted enough for me to write and make a video to quickly share what is most practical.

I highly recommend a simple breathing technique I wish someone had told us weeks ago. It might have saved my husband and me weeks of being sick and a huge hospital bill due to pneumonia.

As I'm designed to, I learned something the hard way, and have to explain in my own emotional way. But if you skipped all that and are looking for the gem, please pay attention now: If you're being struck hard by the virus like we are, here's the most practical advice I can give you:

***DO NOT LAY ONLY ON YOUR BACK.***

See video below for a doctor's explanation. (Video has since been removed from YouTube.)


My mind keeps planning on being able to work the next day I wake up. And I watched as the headache from lack of oxygen hits me, or the coughing grips me in so much pain that I cry, I laugh inside at the ridiculousness of believing my mind's story.

Oh yeah, and that most important thing? For me, it's Loving What Is, this movie of Life. Thank you for Being along on this journey to share with, my dear friends in Human Design.

With so much appreciation and Love,

Laveena

My Coronavirus Experience Update: April 18, 2020

Hey my dear friends, the good news is I’m finally starting to feel better instead of worse. I’m still coughing to where teaching is probably not a good idea as stuff just started to come out of my chest this morning, yuck! The super deep lung vibrating and horribly painful coughing is subsiding, thank goodness. The fever and chills are gone for several days, hopefully for good. What felt like knives in my lungs are dull and aching now instead of sharp and hot, and although I’m still bedridden, for the most part I can get to the bathroom without exhaustion. Headache comes and goes instead of constant. Kidney pains still coming and going. Talking and Laughing makes me cough but at least I can now and the malaise is subsided, yay!

I hope everyone is staying safe and well.
(from a message to my Cartography students)

My Coronavirus Experience Update: April 21, 2020

I have been getting up on my feet finally, there are better and worse days where I can't do much. Because when I try to do things I get worse. After teaching in bed Sunday the 18th which was hard with the constant pressure, I had a really bad day of recovering and more coughing than usual, probably because all that talking pressure loosened stuff in my chest, and the pain has spread to different areas I hadn't felt before, still makes me cry but not every day. The fatigue is so bad I use a wheeled cart to lean on like an old lady and get around slowly when really weak. Any normal exertion brings on the shortness of breath and headaches, but they are not constant and way less thank goodness! I’m so very glad I was finally able to start teaching again for the BG5 Business Institute after a month of being sick.

(from an email reply to a friend)

My Coronavirus Experience Update: April 25, 2020

Today I'm happy to say it is the first day I don't have any new terrible sharp knives in my chest, I just feel general pressure, dull and achy and I can finally talk without too much pain or uncontrollable coughing. I really feel I'm finally getting better, thank goodness! OMG, it was SO scary. My mind really thought I might die at a few points, the struggle to survive caused no energy, then physical and mental depression. My body cried so much, but the last time was Thursday, and it was minor compared to the week before. I haven't had the capacity to do much of anything but self-care with help. I'm so happy to have gotten to the place where I want to do stuff! I am doing my best to be patient and go easy when my mind says go. I have finally the energy to do more than just lay there breathing and wishing to be better, yay!

My Coronavirus Experience Update: April 28, 2020

(was able to participate in the BG5 Live episode where I shared some of the most important things I learned about how to cope with this experience)

My Coronavirus Experience Update: May 2, 2020

I’m publishing this blog entry in totality today, it’s the first since January. I went through so much - my ex-husband was in the hospital, my daughter moved in with us, and we all got sick, my husband was in the hospital, I almost had a lease on an office space in West Sedona, but that fell through because of the coronavirus closures too.


The most interesting thing to me as a Human Design Professional would be to share with you a note on my Human Design Experiment with PHS aka Primary Health System: I am a “cold thirst” Determination person. I’ve experimented with eating and drinking cold since Jan 2013. This virus makes me HATE the cold. So I’ve been using hot water bottles, the sun, hot crystal mats, hot liquids outside AND in - not piping hot, but warm to my chest, which is the only thing that soothed the intense pain. My thinking had gotten fuzzy and the wrong words came out of my mouth when it was really bad. I don’t know if its the virus causing the confusion or my cognition is affected because of me deviating from my PHS.

However, I also notice there’s been a transformation of awareness in me. Is it the removal of psychological blocks because Pluto in Gate 61 that has been going back and forth over my Natal Moon since Jan of last year? Was it the coronavirus experience I had? Whatever the case may be, I feel much more compassionate, humble, generous and at ease with accepting life as it is. Perhaps because, when faced with such deeply profound helplessness of the body, when it was the most painful, I could so clearly see/feel/experience that surrender to the form is the only option, no matter what the mind thought it could, couldn’t or wanted to do. I could see how someday I would want to pass away from the form, have the body let go of me so that it could take its final rest. The moment of breathing, that aching sigh of breath, be it in relief or pain, had to be trusted, embraced, and loved, for exactly what it was.

Life.

Remember to love yourself, first.
Namaste, beloveds.

Your Life's Work - Playing the Starring Role in Your "Movie"

Laveena B Archers

Laveena B Archers

Do you like movies?

I do. Love ‘em. I’m one of those people who can be so totally absorbed in watching, that in my body, when I watch it feels as if what I’m seeing is actually happening to me. This is thanks in part to the Channel 41-30, focused recognition of feelings, the strength of Imagination.

Naturally for my design with its sensitivity to sound, I avoid certain kinds of movies. Like horror! I remember watching a horror movie with my sister’s family and screaming at the bloody murder in front of me! This is thanks to the Channel 1-8, being the demonstrative voice of the group. I never lived it down.

Everyone you see in this life has a very special part to play in their own life movie. Everyone deserves a starring role in their own life movie.

So how do you discover your role?

There are three vital and critical aspects to know about how you are here to fulfill your life’s purpose.

Would you like to know yours?

In the Human Design System:

  1. Your Character is your Profile.

  1. Your Role is your Cross.

  1. Your Characteristics are your Design.

In BG5 (the career and business application of the Human Design System) we call this your “Life Work.”

Human Design for Work BG5 Certification

Let’s hear Ra tell the story:

“It’s the movie. I’m a great believer in the movies. I love the movie - life. And in that analogy of the movie is the parts in the play. It’s something to understand about being a human being…. 

You have Character, and you have Role, and you have Characteristics.

I’m an Ego-Manifestor. That’s my Characteristic. I’m a 5/1, I’m a Heretic Investigator. That’s my Character. And I came in on the Cross of the Clarion. That’s my role.

So I’m a Heretical Investigator, that tells everybody the news and I do it by being a very powerful manifesting ego-being. That’s my place in the movie.

Now think about what that’s like when you come into the movie and you’re coming into the auditions and they give you characteristics but they don’t give you a Character and a Role. 

We call them Extras.” Ra Uru Hu

I remember being an extra on the tv shows Baywatch and Wind Over Water as an actress in my late teens in Hawaii. 

Being an extra back then paid $100 a day. There’s no spoken parts when you are an extra, you’re a part of the scene. You are expendable, replaceable, almost unnoticeable to the audience and totally ignored by the stars. In the movies, as an extra, you’re a background part of what’s happening. Even though I took Bo Derek on a scuba diving trip… in the filming, she ignored me. Because I was an extra. 

Ra continues...

“‘Okay we’re gonna have an Emotional Generator in the back of this scene.’ 

"Bzzzzzzz bzzzzzz" imitates Ra of the Sacral being’s energy. “They don’t even get on the credits at the end of the movie, eh? No billing, nothing, they’re not even Johnny at the end of the second…” yes it’s true. You won’t find me in the credits of Baywatch.

Ra jokingly calls that being “Furniture.” Why?

He tells a story about how he’d been a Magazine Publisher in his early adult days in Canada and had hired a photographer to do a shoot for him. And the Photographer, very agitated, barked at his assistant, “Get me some furniture!” Ra, thinking she was going to bring back sofas and chairs, was stunned to see the assistant bring back three girls to place in the background of the shot.

“You give me a full stadium, I’ll give you a furniture showroom.” He joked after teaching Human Design for over a decade. 

“The furniture is everywhere - it’s everywhere. This is the 'not-self'. Characteristics without any Character and Role, ‘cause you don’t get to live out your Cross and you don’t get to live out your Profile until you’re living out your nature. You don’t.

“The not-self doesn’t get you there, the not-self is an extra in the movie homogenized in the background. Get a life. There’s no life in that. None whatsoever. None. You’re not living out your design, you’re just furniture. That’s the way it is, I mean, we live in a furniture world. 

We live in a world of extras.”

Don’t be an extra. You have so much more human depth and divinity than being background furniture.

A NASA video of
The Tilts and Spins of the Planets

Most astrologers know that Uranus "rolls around the Sun", I.e. its North Pole is almost horizontal. But to see each of the planets (except Pluto) rotate and tilt is very informative.

NASA has created this lovely YouTube video of this motion, showing tilt, direction, and speed of rotation, which you can watch

Emotional Authority - Defined Solar Plexus - Why to Wait for Clarity

Human Design Emotional Authority people have a Defined Solar Plexus

Transcript:

So we're gonna start with the most

Common “waiting for clarity” these people

Need to feel their feelings and all of

You who are emotional as a definition

That is the key. Feel your feelings don't

Be afraid to feel your feelings. But what

Happens when you have an adult in your

Life who is not emotional they don't

Feel comfortable with your feelings they

Suppress you if they drug you they make

You bad and wrong for being up and down

This is a real-life experience that I've

Seen countless times for emotional

People who have up and downs and then

Until it gets you can't it's like a

Pressure cooker you can't pressurize

Yourself for so long it explodes at some

Point yeah you get angry you explode

Something happens that it doesn't feel

Good and then you're really embarrassed

And then you try to put the lid on even

Tighter next time okay so if you feel an

Exaggerated urgency or pressure to act

When you are emotional and you're

Nervous and you're not sure and you just

Gotta get rid of this pressure let me do it

That's not your authority when you're

Really really happy or really really sad

That's not the time to make a choice

It's usually coming from the mind not

From clarity when you feel anxious and

Nervous and uncomfortable and your mind

Is going into all these hypotheses and

Telling you don't wait you can't afford

To wait because the operative term here

Is patience is its own reward patience

Gives you clarity you never ever ever

Make a choice when you're dysregulated

Crying upset never you you cancel that

Engagement whatever it is get get okay

With you if you have an important

Meeting and you're all over the map

That's a sign your body does not want to

Go into that meeting and then people go

Well I have to I promised I must I

Should know cuz you might have an

Important meeting and you just had

People die or whatever it happens to be

And you need some time time is what is

Really healing and time is what is

Needed for people when their

Dysregulated to off-gas the emotions

However or to express to feel whatever

Those emotions need to do that's not the

Time for important decision-making hi is

Worse than low because when you're high

Happy happy everything's great

You're gonna make a yes choice that

You're going to regret later

Because you didn't see all the downs the

Downs give us important information

About the big picture wait for pressure

To subside wait to be able to feel when

The timings right

This means no nervousness you are

Jittery you are anxious you are nervous

You can't swallow coz a lump in your

Throat wait wait make excuses healthy

Excuses you know let me get back to you

Let me sleep on it can I have some time

To process this this is a lot to take in

Right now I need some time yeah can I

Get back to you when do I need to get

Back to you when do you need to know bye

Push it off the further you push off a

Decision the healthier it is for you if

You are nervous so once you've been

Recognized and invited as an advisor

Never make the choice point on happy

Happy happy or low make it somewhere in the middle

Where you've already been up and down on

That particular experience sleep on it

At least sleep on it because you wake up

In a totally different mood than you

Were when you were down when you are

Going to sleep so give yourself the time

Don't get tossed around by the waves of

Emotion because it's like the difference

Between you and having rose-colored

Glasses on when you're happy and really

Foggy thick glasses of not being able to

See blinders it's like having blinders

On when you're sad cuz you're only

Attuned to what is going on in front of

You that resonates to how you feel

Remember we're all resonant creatures

We're vibrating on a frequency when

You're happy you can't remember the last

Time you were so devastated felt like

Life was falling apart

Not really you don't have access to that

Energy so wait for calm confidence

Clarity not excitement you know that

Common what is it law of attraction

Thing follow your highest excitement

That's not true for emotional people not

Spontaneously okay I hope I make that

Clear so we cannot make choices up here

Or down here I have left relationships

Down here and regretted it for the rest

Of my life don't make my mistake wait

Out your wave make decisions from calm

And clarity because what happens is we

Have emotions that go up and down there

Is a choice point somebody asks and then

You have to wait for time because time

Gives you perspective okay time gives

You perspective on whether or not to

Support your tribe with this bargain or

That whether or not to empower or to be

Social to be with that other person

Because or do that thing because you're

Passionate about it because you love it

Like nothing else in this universe when

Time gives you the availability to know

Whether you should share your emotions

With others or

Actually engage in that experience with

Them time is the only truth with

Emotionally intelligent people. Time is

Your friend

Your mind is not.”
