Koen’s Ra quote of the day -
"One of the first things to do, in order to be able to map your life cycle, is that you take a Human Design wheel and highlight the hexagrams that are the harmonics to your activated gates.
In other words those gates that are sticking out in no-man’s-land. Looking for something on the other side.
Chart what's on the other side.
Map those gates as you go around the wheel. And what you have then is a ‘trigger map’.
You have a map of triggers that are going to impact on you.
And it’s going to be a lot easier for you – particularly if you're new in the knowledge – to recognise what's taking place.
You lay out your map and all you have to do is look at the Ephemeris and when you see those hexagrams come up, you know “Ok. Let’s see what this is doing”.
In the beginning, the process is: look ahead and see what's coming.
In the end, it’s: look behind and see how funny it is!
Because that’s the process. First you have to see it for yourself and you have to learn how to sense these conditioning elements.
So you have to be prepared. You have to know when to put up the umbrella. You have to know what's coming so you can sense it.
[I’m not entirely sure I agree with this ’being prepared’ idea, though I have considered a workbook at times. But it feels like it can set the stage for a heck of a lot of confirmation bias and general Mind involvement. Can get stuck in the weeds trying to see all the things all at once. Hindsight sure. - A]
Remember it’s not easy to notice one gate. Please understand that, how confusing it is in a room like this. Everything’s active.
The world’s like that. You go home to your families and there's multiple auras that you're dealing with.
Remember my little story at the beginning. I was all alone. I didn’t have any interference field around me. It was much easier for me within that context to really see at some level of purity what my relationship was specifically to the Program.
I'm not suggesting, by the way, that you go and live in nature for a while. But what I am saying is that you have to realise that only in the beginning by focusing on what those activations are going to be, can you actually have the attention to recognise them when they're taking place.
It’s not easy; we’re so dead.
The magical senses, our real sensitivity, it’s not there.
And recognise something about all gates, channels and centers – this is your place of deepest sensitivity.
There's so many things that you can just read, that we call ‘mystical’. But they're not. We are deeply sensitive creatures; we can take it in.
But after living the not-self forever you deaden all of that.
You don’t get to really see the nuance and you don’t see how all of that is really working in you.
So the moment that you're following the Program and you can see your own map, you can see the triggers, and you can begin this process of focusing your attention on what that is.
How does this work? How does this feel?
And it’s nothing more than beginning the role of being a passenger.
It’s what I like about the Ephemeris.
As you begin to explore the Ephemeris, you begin to depersonalise. It’s one of the first things that happens.
‘Depersonalise’ in the sense that you become much more an observer of events. The Program says to you ‘You're a 39 and the 55’s coming’.
So you look at that and you say ‘Well, what does that mean?”. It means that there's this emotional energy that’s there. There's this melancholy.
Wait and see that.
How it impacts on you. What it feels like. Where it takes you.
Often you'll forget, because that’s the way it works. And then the next day suddenly you'll have this “Oh yes. That’s what happened”. You begin to see it. You begin to recognise it.
And remember, it’s not like there's only one planet that's going to be impacting you in your design; you’ve got many, in different places.
That’s what I mean about recognising that you cannot, in any way, conquer this through knowing it.
You can experience it by being yourself, and in that you're going to have a pure ride. But you can't conquer it intellectually, it’s just too much.
But you'll begin to see, by becoming familiar with your design, your vulnerabilities.
For me, I have four open centres but the emotions that really mess me up, here's my first focus.
And once I understood how I interacted with those connections of my emotions, there were other places to go.
I could look at what happened to me when my Root Centre would be activated and how much pressure that put on me. I began to explore what happened to me in the Sacral Center. I eventually began to see what happened to me in my open Head Center.
[This makes way more sense to me - Center awareness - so valuable - and Gates as they draw our attention. That’s been what’s suited me - only you can know what suits you. There is no rush though, eh? - A]
And when I was done looking at the centers, I got lost in looking at gates and channels.
To see all of the conditioning elements and just watch them. Not do anything. This is not knowledge in which when you see, you can alter.
That’s not what this is about. It’s about that when you finally see what's really there, that is it a Program, you can let go. You can let go.
In the beginning I thought it would be very easy. I really did. It was so obvious to me that I figured it would be obvious for everyone. It’s just so easy.
And then you come up with such easy mechanics. Not only easy mechanics, but they get verified by science – there are only four types, four mechanical ways to operate in a vehicle. You would think that everybody would wake up.
Human beings that are conditioned, it’s a real journey. You have to see you're helpless. You have to see the truth of that.
And you have to recognise that in that helplessness there is something magical and perfect – you! And that ‘you’ emerges.
And it emerges the moment you give up being in control of your life.
It’s the moment that you watch as a passenger how you're made this way and that way, and move this way and that way, and it’s just a Program.
I always wondered why I would be in a funky mood in the heart of winter. I found out! It wasn’t winter. I spent most of my life looking for the sun.
I thought I needed to get rid of winter because winter made me emotional and angry. It’s the damn planets.
What I like about the Sun/Earth Program is that it really gives value to that old expression about ‘This too shall pass’. It’s what I learned.
The planets just keep moving around the wheel. These things do pass. And all those moments of blackness for somebody who’s a 6 and is hit by the 59 or somebody who’s a 39 and has to deal with the 55, this too shall pass.
So watch it; don’t let it hook you. It doesn’t have to hook you. It doesn’t have to become the decision you make.
This is the magic of decision-making. Decision-making keeps you honest.
You make decisions as yourself and it doesn’t matter what the energy is. It makes no difference.
You're going to operate correctly and you're going to be able to take advantage of whatever is there.
The Nodes of the Moon.
In the same way that the movement of the Sun/Earth through a gate, which is 6 days, when you're looking at the Nodes of the Moon they're basically ‘seasons’.
If you look at the index in the back in terms of the timing, you'll see that they stay approximately 106 days.
So, basically, you're looking at something that’s about on average 3½ months. Every 3½ months we have a seasonal change on an 18½ year cycle.
And Node cycles are very profound.
And remember that because the Nodes are a position and not an object, that these nodal cycles are trans-cellular cycles. They're much greater cycles, they link us to the larger life.
They're also very deceptive; they're sneaky. They go right in there and they get you!
And they stay long enough for you to think that this will not pass!
Tomorrow’s another day – it really is so.
When you look at the Earth and Sun changing lines, you really get something different each day. Yesterday, with all of its 3rd line nonsense, it passes.
But the Nodes, it doesn’t. It hangs in there.
And you begin to think that something is changing you. That something has suddenly happened to you.
And because of the way our brains work – our mind system is all about making up reasons – the moment that it happens, you have a reason for it.
If it’s coincidental to the interaction with another, you will just put that on them. ‘It’s because of that conversation, that moment, that problem …. that I have this now’.
Or ‘Because I read that book last night I woke up this morning enlightened’.
Because, because, because, because …"

@Carizma22 3/5 splenic P, has said yes to sharing this 😍
I love it when I get to be privy to an ‘experiment progress report’ from one of our Locals members.
Wanna celebrate with me? 🥳🤩🙌🏽
This next one is a tale of Carole’s undefined solar plexus adventures, originally posted in a Projector fb group.
Cool witnessing Carole! 🤗
Thread gist in comments (screenshots) and a somewhat messy screen grab video of the video recommended in one of the OP comments she received included below (above?🤓)
And there’s a short video of @BeyondBeautiful and me first talking about “avoiding confront and truth” which includes a story I often have told about John and the very first real time glimpse I saw this undefined solar plexus dealie irl. Can find.
Blew my mind.
I know there are several splenic Authority folks in here, maybe you have stories to share too?
"Some ideas take decades"
This is pretty inspiring. She reckons she's finally finished her apprenticeship at 70 💜
Fun add-on HD irl example - this was shared in Vanessa's group on FB, The Art of Being You by another appreciative group member (thank you Kathrin 🤗), and I first watched it a few hours ago.
I immediately thought what a great share it would be in here 🤩 but it landed pretty quickly on my 'roundtooit list.
Maybe to get shared here, maybe not. Tbh, the hold up was that I didn't really want to share a FB link in here, so I was looking (investigating) around to see if it was on another platform.
Hadn't found it yet.
Then it turns out that @NaimR wasn't able to view it from Canada (someone is blocking it for Canada ? wha?) and she said as much on the thread in Vanessa's group.
And you know what kicks in?
My Design (19/49 and Markets internal in particular), which had me heading this way anyway - at some point ... maybe... but I always get a little boost of focus from ...
There were three roller coasters 🎢 we had on or radar for the last hour before the rides closed.
Wasn’t to be, but we did find this nice place to sit and wait out the deluge that started right after we grabbed a great smoked BBQ supper.
And ooh it cooled everything off perfectly. And gave us some rest before we found our way back to the car (which was parked on the very first row of priority parking 🥳)
Ahhhh nothing to do, so much nothing to do 🥳🥰🍿
This is a post and audio from @BeyondBeautiful - Valerie Montgomery, Self Projected Projector
"I wanted to make this breakfast and found myself rushing.
Now, you might be interested to know I have Alternating Determination, which means I need to do things “One Thing At A Time,” which turns out to be the title of the song I made up to shift the energy of starting to make this breakfast.
I also have an Undefined Root, so it always feels like I need to get rid of the pressure. Also known as feeling rushed to do things.
It would have been lovely to have my cat fix my breakfast, and I had the time, so..
Also being Self Projected my authority comes out through my speaking, or in this case, singing."
Great awareness and share, thank you Valerie! 💜Not sure that's the right title for this, but it's what came out so I'm rolling with it.
This story began in a FB group. Where many of my stories do.
I can't actually remember the thread or how we ended up in messenger, but the reason we did was because 5/1 Projector with Gate 1 on an undefined G center ... had music of hers to share but hasn't been able to share it so far.
Am still waiting to see if the rest of the story gets shared with me.
So she asked me what sort of music I liked and did I want something more abstract (I think it was) or a vocal cover. I chose vocal cover and she picked this one.
I felt it to my core.
Not sure if part of that was related to some of what she'd already (not intentionally) told me ... 5th line folks can take a lot of patience to draw out - that's been my experience so far anyway.
Some feel interesting enough to spend the energy on :) That's true here.
A kind of sidenote to this is that both my Uranus Opposition (40ish yo) and Chiron (50ish yo) charts carry a 3/5 and it feels like, though I'm not a 5th line - I do sort of get ...

"There is one big key to understanding Projectors, and it can only be found by looking at the bigger picture.
We know that statistically, Projectors make up 21% of the population. That means that for every five people, more or less, there is one Projector.
Those are interesting numbers, especially when they are considered within the context of how Gene Pools operate.
There is a mysterious circuit within the Bodygraph that is curiously known as the WA. The WA holds the secret to the choreography of all human gene pools.
One day, when these aspects of Human Design are explored in more depth, we will be able to see how groupings of individual designs come together in the same way as cells bind together to create the organs within our bodies.
For those who baulk at the idea that we have no choice, this is frightening stuff.
The WA shows how different human designs are collectively organised and herded together to perform certain functions within the greater body of humanity.
Imagine then, that humanity is a body like your own body. There are only 4 types of cells, each with their own sub-programming.
At one extreme, you have a small amount of ‘rogue’ cells, independent bodies that are designed to operate outside the loop of the mainframe programming. Ironically however, these manifestor cells are just as dependent upon the whole as any other type. They are simply programmed to appear independent.
At the other extreme, you have a tiny percentage of early-warning cells – these unusual cells have no programming of their own but are designed to take accurate readings of any cellular environment they move through.
In every sub-culture you will find a few of these cells reflecting the health of the local environment. Their role is to warn the overall intelligence of the body of any potential disruptions to the organism. They are called reflector cells.
The bulk of the cellular life of the body (91%) is made up of the two most common kinds of cell – generator cells and projector cells.
These 2 types are designed to interlock with each other. The generator cells collectively create the life of the organism. They are pure energy cells buzzing day and night, maintaining and building the whole.
Projector cells are unique. They have no propulsion of their own, so they drift around on the endless energy currents created by the generator cells.
You might imagine how easy it would be for a projector cell to feel that it had no purpose within the body.
However, each projector cell actually has a very specific purpose (some have more than one), but that purpose can only be realised when certain energy cells (generators) dock in with the projector cell to receive instructions.
Since the projector has no propulsion, it is powerless to initiate this process, but has to allow the generator cells to recognise them and dock in within their own timing. This recognition process takes place through a coded lock and key programme built into these 2 types at birth.
In other words, every projector holds multiple keys that fit an enormous array of locks. When a key does not fit a lock it is very obvious!
Through the knowledge of the WA, we know that the basic genetic unit is 5. These human groupings of mainly generators and projectors are also known as ‘Pentas’.
The nuclear family is a family of five.
Statistically, that is four generators and one projector. As an archetype, the role of this fifth projector is to maintain the stability of the 4 generators.
Right, this next part is where it gets spooky, so hang on to your seats and try and stay with me!…
Just as this fifth projector draws together the 4 generators to form a penta, this penta then takes on a life of its own. It also seeks something greater to dock into, and this is known as an OC16.
Pentas (groups of 5 human beings) seek out another projector, known as an alpha. Alpha projectors naturally dock together with three pentas, making 16 people (including the alpha).
The moment you have 16 people together, you actually have the foundation of an entire gene pool, which then continues to grow exponentially.
Right. I am going to stop there. Whether you were able to follow any of that or not, I am trying to make a point – which is that if you are a projector, you are genetically coded to have others (specifically generators) recognise you and approach you.
This is the foundation of the success of humanity as a species. The projector’s role is pivotal for life to be coherently organised.
But there is a great irony to it all for the projector – which is that there is nothing for them to do until they are recognised.
Every projector knows when the key fits. Every cell in their body lights up.
They also know when it only ‘sort of’ fits.
Those are the critical moments for projectors. If the fit is not perfect, they have to smile sweetly and turn away.
So how long does a projector have to wait? Well, forever.
There is a deep secret for projectors going through their deconditioning – that is, waiting itself transforms the cells.
The relief of not trying to make keys fit when they do not want to fit, releases a huge pressure from the projector’s life.
But it is also clear from my own experience of observing projectors that they are not always able to immediately throw away keys that do not fit.
Sometimes those keys may provide their livelihood, and they have to hold on to them until they find the correct keys to replace them. That takes courage – to wait knowing something is wrong and you are powerless to change it.
I have a vast admiration for any projector going through their deconditioning, and I have also learned that I can never move forward in life without the presence of projectors in key roles around me.
Projectors, if you cannot be patient, there is no hope for any of us…"
This is a little outside of my 'care' zone, but can see the things we've trusted faltering.
I think Human Design is here to offer people awareness to be able to weather what would otherwise feel like impossibly stormy times.
Lucky us 🤗
Also, what a cool picture Chaitanya found 😍

"The knowledge was given so that human beings could be equipped to live in an age in which there was nothing they could trust.
This is what the Cross of Planning has brought us. It’s brought us an age of, within reason, trust.
That the trains will run on time, that the electricity will be there, that all of those things will work, that our children will have teachers in their schools, that the garbage will be picked up and on and on and on.
All the things that the Cross of Planning has brought us, the institutionalization of science and the spreading of all kinds of technologies that enhance the potential for the increase in human population, the increase in the potential of the gene pool, the increase in the potential for the unusual, the mutative.
Human Design is not about the time of the Cross of Planning. Human Design knows the plan. It’s not about that at all. It's about bringing the possibility of the richness of life to the next generation.
If the stellar family teaches us anything it’s that even the gods, even the remotest forces in the stream are concerned about the generations and the movement of information.
There are certain stars in the sky that could not exist until other stars had died. The fact that human beings and certain brain functions, elements in our brain, that can only exist after the death of stars, we are so deeply connected to them. We live very close to one. That is our shelter and our light."
