It turns out, Thanksgiving is tomorrow šš
I kinda was in the loop thanks to Gabrielās turkey cookie creations. But not really lol.
Snuck right up on me :)
Then last night, as John and I were on our way back from Lowes (we were chasing the outlet for the stove thatās finally IN the kitchen), we started getting a clue that Thanksgiving was only 2 days away, which lead to talking about a big pot of mashed potatoes.
We both have undefined heads ā¦ conversation do wander š
(It was spurred on by a post or meme or something that weād both seen earlier from Aleda about epic mashed potatoes or something ā¦ wonder if I can find it again š¤ ā¦ ha! She had it to send over - took 30 seconds, itās below)
Anyway, the point is, the girls are busy (Aleda and Morgan - and partners - have Thanksgiving commitment conflicts most years) and Zane doesnāt really really like to go out amongstāem to go be in a group setting (so he doesnāt and no one tries to make him of course).
And most years since we moved to Florida (16 years ago), my Stepmother has taken charge of the meal planning and executing ā¦ and it was easy to let her, especially when the kids were younger.
But we hadnāt heard from her and it wouldāve been just me and John ā¦ then we got to dreaming about this big pot of mashed potatoes being the focus of our day on the day āŗļø
I LOVE potatoes.
So I said, āWell, Iām not sure how many potatoes we have, weād better get some on the way home.ā
We stop at the grocery store. And I hop out to grab this bag of potatoes.
Itās so busy that the fact that itās Tuesday before Thanksgiving Thursday really comes into full clarity and my shopping brain expands to hmm š¤, weāre about to have an actual full-size oven ā¦
(this endless-feeling kitchen construction project began when I took out the worn out wall oven and range top that I can only imagine were original to the [1960ās era] house - I think itās been two years since I did that)
ā¦ because remember, Johnās about to install the plug for the stove thatās been waiting in the Livingroom for quite awhile ā¦ and THAT means I can actually shop for things that can be cooked in it!
Well, not just going in for potatoes and then leaving had a funny side effect.
I didnāt over shop (okay I did buy 3 pies lol), but as I was considering what sort of (smallish) meat might pair well with our epic potatoes, I found myself looking at the frozen ducks ā¦
And while I was seeing how I felt about that ā¦ who should come up behind me?
My stepmother.
Who I rarely or never bump into.
With an invitation to Thanksgiving š¤¦š»āāļøš
I quickly put down the duck - almost like Iād been caught doing something I shouldnāt have been lol š
Navigated that conversation with āI donāt really know what weāre doing tbhā and āthe kids all have different plansā etcā¦
She seems pretty relaxed about it either way and says, āWell, itāll be around 5pm (at my stepbrotherās house) if you wanna come.ā
Who knows, we may still pop in (or I might if my Dad plans to, for instance - he also is a Projector and prefers short cameo appearances) ā¦ can leave that to Inner Authority and no promises.
But also, I did circle back and grab that duck Iād just about settled on before I was ācaught red handedā with it š
Have no idea how to cook duck ššš
All I know is I have an oven to play with (he got it plugged in last night - whoop whoop! šš¼) and a duck to do it with.
And so life unfolds.

@Carizma22 3/5 splenic P, has said yes to sharing this š
I love it when I get to be privy to an āexperiment progress reportā from one of our Locals members.
Wanna celebrate with me? š„³š¤©šš½
This next one is a tale of Caroleās undefined solar plexus adventures, originally posted in a Projector fb group.
Cool witnessing Carole! š¤
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?š¤)
And thereās a short video of @BeyondBeautiful and me first talking about āavoiding confront and truthā 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 š
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 š¤), and I first watched it a few hours ago.
I immediately thought what a great share it would be in here š¤© 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 š¢ we had on or radar for the last hour before the rides closed.
Wasnāt 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 š„³)
Ahhhh nothing to do, so much nothing to do š„³š„°šæ
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 āOne Thing At A Time,ā 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! šNot 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 ...

āAccept others ā thatās it!ā
Ra said, āAt the simplest level, one of the things that Human Design shows anyone is a need to accept the other because thereās nothing you can do about it. I think this is perhaps one of the deepest aspects of the knowledge, simply to be able to see the other as what they are.ā
This quote landed right on time.
Two people in my life did things this week that really triggered me [the OP].
My first thought was, Iād never do that. Their priorities are all wrong.
Then came the anger.
I knew saying anything wouldnāt change them, but would only create distance. So I had to process it quietly and notice what it stirred in me.
Acceptance doesnāt mean approval. Itās seeing others as they are while staying true to myself.
@everyone Iām curious,
š How do you handle it when someoneās behavior triggers you?
[this is a leading question and makes quite an assumption, thereās maybe ...
āSo on one side of this story we see that there is a need to have purpose. Nobody knows what their purpose is. Your purpose unfolds.
The only thing that you need to do is navigate correctly. Thatās all. You align yourself, your purpose unfolds. Itās just like that.
And itās not your mind trip that goes, āOh, yeah, I think my purpose is this.ā You don't know. It doesnāt matter. Itās just the way in which you screw yourself around because you don't see where you are because you think you should be going someplace else.
Itās a ride, I tell you; itās a ride. And it's a ride in a very primitive thing.
Bioforms are primitive. They are. And theyāre limited by all the demands of what it is to be genetic, the genetic imperative, reproduction, all this stuff, having to eat, on and on and on.
Weāre not even very far along the evolutionary ladder in terms of the vehicle. But we all know that the consciousness is so much more sophisticated. Itās so obvious.

"You donāt end up speaking who you are in your life process. You donāt. You donāt express yourself.
Your true essence doesnāt get across to the other person, because it doesnāt come in the words. Most people are not very good at being able to really communicate.
What we get from most people is what we get from their frequency, this is what we get. This is how we read them.
We donāt read them according to what they say. We read them according to the frequency.
Oh, people try so hard with the words, because they think itās the words that are going to make a difference, the way they phrase their request, the way they phrase their admonishment, the way they phrase this or that.
āI have to use the right languageā; āI have to say itāāall that stuff. But it isnāt.
Oh, yes, it carries importance, we know that. But how is it going to get in? How is it going to be received?
It is received through the quality of the frequency itself. When the frequency is distorted, the aura is ...

"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 ārogueā 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 ā 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 ā 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.Ā These human groupings of mainly generators and projectors are also known as āPentasā.
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!ā¦
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 ā 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 projectorās role is pivotal for life to be coherently organised.
But there is a great irony to it all for the projector ā 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 āsort ofā 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 ā 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 projectorās 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 ā 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 usā¦"
This is a little outside of my 'care' zone, but can see the things we've trusted faltering.Ā
I think Human Design is here to offer Ā people awareness to be able to weather what would otherwise feel like impossibly stormy times.
Lucky us š¤
Also, what a cool picture Chaitanya found š

"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. Itās brought us an age of, within reason, trust.Ā
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. Itās not about that at all. It's about bringing the possibility of the richness of life to the next generation.Ā
If the stellar family teaches us anything itās that even the gods, even the remotest forces in the stream are concerned about the generations and the movement of information.Ā
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."
