For anyone new (or even not so new) to Human Design - sometimes I speak in HD geek, been all up in it for a few years.
Am trying to be more intentional about leaving the foundation breadcrumbs here as I post, but sometimes I can't even see what's maybe missing, so please totally feel free to ask for clarification about whatever in the comments.
It helps me to know what direction to go in for sure.
Today it seems a good moment to include the basics of what's being referred to when you hear anyone talking about Strategy & Authority - or S&A for short.
I think it'll help when reading the Ra piece I've included below.
So here we go :)
First of all there are 4 Aura Types (don't get confused if anyone ever says there's 5, they're incorrect)
The 4 Types and their general % of the population (ie. # out of every 100 people on average) are -
1% Reflector
8% Manifestor
21% Projector
70% Generator/Manifesting Generator (split about 1/2 and 1/2)
And each Aura Type has a general 'rule for least resistance with others' Strategy.
Reflectors - to be initiated
Manifestor - inform (of movement, plans, projects, etc)
Projectors - wait for invitations with recognition
Generators - wait to respond to the life that is always coming to you
And each chart has a personal Inner Authority that's indicated on it - there are 7 possibilities - and some that are cross-Type possible.
Emotional (roughly 50% of the world)
Sacral
Splenic
Ego Manifested or Projected
Self Projected
Environmental (sometimes called 'none' - that's not true)
Lunar
Each have their own flavors and ways of being described. Of course, even within these possibilities there can be variation (example - there are 3 different types/patterns of emotional waves)
But anyway - that's a basic overview. Your Human Design chart has these details that are particular to your combination
I just wanted to make sure you have the info to understand what's being spoken of whenever Strategy (type specific) and Authority (sometimes type specific) - are mentioned.
'Cause they get mentioned a lot :)
And not without good reason.
If you don't already have an extended chart, and you'd like one - let's make that happen, k?
You can let me know your interest in the comments below :)
Now, here's one of the Ra passages I spotted today -
"There's something to grasp about why we're here.
We are not here to suffer.
This old seven centered story of "the Earth is the planet of suffering". Jesus... (pardon me, but..)
Give us all a break. I am not here to suffer. You're not here to suffer.
Are you crazy? This is madness.
The whole thing about being a nine centered being is that we're here to have a good time.
Honestly, we're here to have a good time. Even when we're in the middle of the ugliest shit - we're here to have a good time.
Because we're not going to be lost in this shit "oh, it's my fault! it's their fault! Reward me, punish them! Reward them, punish me!" who the hell knows...
Human beings are so messed up.
And you see, you're serious, and you caught up in all that stuff, because that's what your mind does to you. And then you miss the beauty.
You know, the first sign that the somebody is on the road to well being is that they laugh at themselves.
When they see the madness of their own mind.
When they see what it did to their life, - instead of moaning and weeping - to [be able to] get the joke.
See, we are here to be far beyond all that. We really are.
And you can't get there if your mind has got it's foot on the break all the time.
So you enter into the strategy and authority and what it does to you is it aligns you to your correct geometry ... that doesn't really mean that you know what the hell is going on.
You don't suddenly have an enlightened grasp of reality.
You're deeply conditioned creature that's beginning to correct themselves, slowly.
And one of the beautiful things about operating correctly is that you begin to embrace those things that are indeed correct for you, what you do, who you're with, all of that."

@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 ...
My 16.5 (in detriment 🤓) is ‘nodding’ over here 🤭
Ironically also in my P Venus (conscious ‘values’) …. seriously not wired for the “love and light” and “be kind” conditioning 😅
It’s interesting to read here that Ra ties it all to personal talent. I suppose it’s true (hahahaha not meaning to model it but, ya know - no choice) … but also, the general sharing of enthusiasm, or rather the ability to excuse myself from it and give others a heads up that that’s what’s up - has been a great addition to my life (I say with as much enthusiasm as possible 😂).
TBH, this is one of my most appreciated emojis 🥳 … and when I use it, I really mean it 🙂

It's the Right Angle that opens up the possibilities of what it can be to be human.

And the Left Angle is marketing and everything about the nature of what it is to be a species.
Everything about the nature of being able to transform what takes place at the right angle and turn it into a mutation that affects all of humanity is dependent on the depth and quality of the Right Angle beings that we have on this plane.
If you get to somebody like me who is a Left Angle. I'm a 5/1, my job is to spread the mutation.
But the mutation arises out of the human experience.
It arises out of that ...

"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."
