Markets environment and the social dilemma (w/Cave references)

Dropping this in here unedited for format (maybe I’ll come back to do that 🤷🏻‍♀️) finally did it Nov 2024 😄.

"The external [Markets environment], as you can see, is something that fundamentally is really the way in which our whole material world has been built.

And there is a real dilemma that comes with this kind of environment; the dilemma is that the being has a much closer connection socially to the people that they work with than to their own families, whether it is their biological families, or whether it’s the families they create with a partner.

It’s something that we see over and over and over again in rela- tionships in every part of the world, particularly amongst males because it so happens to be the prevailing archetype,
this in essence having their whole social life geared to wherever it is they do business and having problems in their home life and having a lot of jealously and competitiveness, and so forth and so on.

These are people that end up with falling in love with bosses or employees or colleagues.

They say the level of affairs that takes place in the corporate world in the standard office building with thousands and thousands of people is enormous and a lot of that is rooted here.

And it is rooted in that external because there is a dilemma with the depth of the connection to the family.

You can see this moving out the cave is a movement that is sort of gradual.

First it’s, well, the cave in the back and the business in the front [Markets- Internal]. But it’s still connected to the family.

There is this opening up; and of course, the meeting of the others that are coming to the cave.

But the moment you move into the external you really move into this shift; it’s a real shift.

So you end up with people who have a dominance of relationships that are rooted in the business life.

Now, obviously this can be very helpful for somebody who is young, because in essence it points to the right direction for them—marry somebody who they’re going to have as a business partner. Somebody who is going to work with them, whatever the case may be.

This is somebody that needs to see that their outside work life is where they’re going to have their profoundest relationships.

So, one way of dealing with that is to have a partner that is part of that world.

Of course, in most cases we’re not going to be able to dispense that information, we’re dealing with adults who are deeply condi-
tioned and not necessarily involved in truly living out their strategy. And of course, there are all kinds of problems that come with that.

So we have two very different things here, but they bring with it a social consequence.

It’s the same thing with the cave people.

There is a social consequence of not wanting to mingle with the outsiders, this is social consequence.

Social consequence is that it can be much more difficult for these beings to make a living. It just can.

Again, and I’m speaking of that within the context of the way the not-self operates, to begin to see these things in the social dynamic.

It’s the most important thing that we’re looking at here. No one in the history of sociology has ever been able to see the evolution of the environmental patterns that transform the way in which human beings relate to others.

It’s very, very special. I want you to just have a sense of that.

So, your view here has to be as much sociological in perspective as it is in terms of the personal.

In terms of the personal it’s not very complex. It’s always that case with Design that you have simple surfaces.

In terms of the personal you look at this and you see somebody who has markets and they have internal and you know what you can say to them.

You know that environments in which it is going to be healthy for them, environments where they’re going to meet the least resistance are environments where they combine their living space and their working life; a combination of working space and business life in which their material life brings interaction. That’s it.

We have a lot of that now. In many ways the 2nd tone internal is becoming a very powerful force.

I live an example of it, in the sense that I live and work at home.

This is something that’s there in the program. I happen to be upper color nodally, I’m a 6th color shore, so it isn’t significant for me and it’s not a conditioning factor in the general sense of the word.

But it’s just interesting to note, again, that the 1st and 2nd colors bring these very basic constructs to the way in which we operate and particularly the way in which we operate or not on the material plane.

Again, with the external [markets], it’s the same basic presentation.

In other words, you have an advantage. Here you can say you have to see that your family, in a sense, is always going to be secondary in terms of the quality of your relationships to your business associations.

And not to be guilty about that, because the fact of the matter is by developing those deep relationships in the outside world, you’re enhancing not only your material potential, but you’re enhancing your own longevity.

Obviously, it says something about the relationship that they’re going to have with family. But remember, again we’re only seeing an aspect of a holistic view.

We’re seeing, in essence, one quarter of what the picture is. We’re not looking at the design internal, we’re not looking at the personality internal, and we’re not looking at the personality external.

We have four fundamental elements that ultimately synthesize as a holistic being.

So obviously this is a significant element that is there. And again, it’s something to think about in terms of the body and the body’s relationship to the maia.

In other words, for the cave people this enclosed environment is something that is so healthy for their physical body.

These are the kind of people that should never go outside if they don’t feel right.

Stay inside, stay within the shelter, stay within the closed environment because this is where there is the least resistance, this is where you can be the healthiest.

You know that when you’re dealing with market beings, the
external beings particularly, you know that for their bodies
they need to go out, they need those other specific hardscape environments.

And by the way, they end up going into cave like things, but they go in and they come out, just like the internal that has a cave that has a door that is open to the outside and allows them to come in. The vehicle is comfortable in these environments.

I want you to see that there is a real difference here, this foundation, this 1-2 [Environment Colors], is our world.

It’s the two most important environments in the world. It is the very basis of the quality of life.

It is the very basis of our social interactions and it is all here in these first two nodal colors.

But in approaching it—this is so huge, because I see it in another dimension.

For me, the nodal PHS [environment variable] is as revolutionary to the understanding of social humanity and the social evolution of humanity as the internal is to understanding differentiated brain function.

In other words, it is in a sense its own really extraordinary revolution in understanding the way in which we are designed as beings, as a species, the way we were designed to interact and to understand that we are designed to interact within environments, specific environments.

In other words, the way in which true relationships, deep relationships are intended to function, the way in which we evolve to deal with the other goes step-by-step through these very, very basic environments.

Your home, you can see how important it is, home. And think about the way in which this flows in the genetic continuity of all things.

You’re going to have 1st colors in your design, they’re going to be in different places, and you may have it nodally.

But it’s something to understand that for all of us there is a special connection to this concept. And it is a special connection because it is a physical thing for us, an essential physical [environment] ingredient.

There are very few human beings who can truly live without one.

And then you get to understand that we were designed to develop strong relationships with our blood, our kin. That’s the beginning.

And then the next step was to develop strong relationships with those that you could work with.

This is the story.

And the methodology for both: to develop a relationship with your family, lock them all into a house, and to develop a relationship with the other, create a material circumstance that forces them to work with and ultimately respect and appreciate each other. Ah, it’s beautiful. It’s just beautiful.

Then you see all those basic relationships that all human beings have. We all have this love/hate, close or not relationships with our families. We all have that.

They’re the ones that know us the best in a sense. We’re the ones that know them so well.

We all have these things we can say about our children, our parents, whatever, this knowing that comes from the cave.

Then there are these relationships that we have developed outside of the cave, and relationships that have arisen out of our pathway through the material world beginning with school. These are our bonds.

As we move upwards [color numbers] we’re going to see that these basic bonds, the foundation of society in civilization, that there is a progression that takes place, that there is a transition and an evolution in this process until we finally get to the 6 and we see what it looks like at the end of this particular cycle of evolution.

So whenever you’re looking at the 1-2 environments remember that you’re looking at something that is very rigid, in the same way that you look at the internal 1-2 [Determination], the rigid 1-2, the caveman/cavewoman diet and the very, very rigid repetitive menu of the 2, you have to see that this is just as rigid and primitive in its own way.

So it’s going to be very, very important for people in that sense to align themselves through their process to these environments that are healthy for them.

And for us to be able to prepare them for what that brings to them, because there are consequences obviously.

It’s not like they’re children and they’re naturally going to be raised in a way in which they’re going to be aligned correctly to what is the right nodal [environment] perspective for them.

The not-self is such a mess.

It’s why we always need to go back to the basics and make sure that people are really following that strategy so they can get the advantage of the cognition and begin to align on the nodal plane.

Because in the end it’s a beautiful thing, just as it is to know what it is to live by your authority, it is a beautiful thing to see that your vehicle, because it’s a signpost that you all need to watch, that your vehicle, when it’s correct, will naturally move to the environment that is correct for it. You just will.

That’s the magic. And then it’s [about] what the personality will do.

Will the personality be able to take advantage of it?

Will the personality be able to take advantage of the potential of the relationships with the other, all of those things, because, of course, the great dilemma is the personality.

And remember that the moment that the notself steps into this game we lose the cognition, it’s all gone, you can forget about it. We just do [lose it].

And these people are off in the wrong place, they just are. And they get exactly what they deserve because this becomes the obverse.

You go into the wrong place; the not-self leads you to the wrong place so that you can have that perfect wrong place not-self slap. That’s what you get."

Carole’s Undefined SP Adventures

@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 ...

The rain that cooled off the end of our day.

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 🥳🥰🍿

Color 1 Determination: Appetite - a song for Alternating/Consecutive PHS folks

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!  💜

Make You Feel My Love - A Gate 1 Melancholy & mundane Emotional Wave Story

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 ...

THE ISSUE OF PROJECTORS - HOW LONG WILL I HAVE TO WAIT?

by Richard Rudd

"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…"

Human Design knows the plan

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 😍

- A


"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."
