Gates 19, 39, 41 - I got all three on a defined center (ie. always “on”) … š¤
"The Root Center is a center of mysteries.
As the Head Center, the other Pressure Center in the Rave BodyGraph, conditions the framework of how we mentally perceive the Maya; the Root Center, conditions how we in fact live our physical lives.
Consider the pressure forces in the Root pointed at the Solar Plexus Center, the emotional system.
19 Approach, 39 Obstruction and the 41 Decrease are pressure Gates which can have inordinate impact on our lives.
Firstly, there is the basic circuitry difference between the three. Approach (19) is at the Root of the emotional Tribal process rooted in specific needs. Tribal circuitry thematically is about support.
Decrease (41) is at the Root of the emotional Collective process rooted in expectation driven wanting. Collective circuitry thematically is about sharing.
Finally, Obstruction (39) is at the Root of the emotional Individual process rooted in fickleness. Individual circuitry thematically is about empowerment.
The Root Center is a powerful motor and the fuel of need; wanting or sheer uncertainty can be a Center is a powerful motor. And the fuel of need, wanting or sheer uncertainty can be a determining force in someoneās life. These are also terms that in the context of Human Design are very specific.
Yet the tendency is to confuse needs and wants and falsely equate fickleness with the emotional wave.
The needs of the 19th Gate are foundations of community. They are necessities for life, the need of Food and Shelter. The need of a secure pair bond based on just principles and the need of territory and community for protection. There is also the need of spirituality.
The 41st Gate is the Root of the Human experiential way. The carrot of progress is expectation. This is the root of desire and the only limit to the wanting is the imagination. The desire for someone or something is not the same as the need for food and a mate.
Need is communal.
Wanting is impersonal.
Fickleness is deeply personal.
The individual is designed to be mutative. They operate in a repetitive pulse until mutation and change take place. In that sense they have no control over the perceived timing of a commitment. They will need and not need as a matter of mood, no choice including the impact of the emotional wave that they can meet.
They will want and not want and suffer in indecisiveness the lonely writers of love songs until mutation and knowing happen or not.
It is also something to consider that since none of the channels above the Throat Center are part of Tribal circuitry that the mind is not equipped to guide us in our needs but is great at desire and fickleness.
There are two things as basics to be garnered from all this; one is the importance of language.
To recognize in your own language the confusion between what you express as needs and wants; the other is acceptance of self.
If you are tribally defined then neediness is not a fault or a problem but your truth.
If you are individual and fickle accept your mechanics and donāt punish yourself over perceived indecisiveness.
And if you are defined in the abstract Collective, then accept desire as your way and not as a price you are forced to pay."
