The magic in blending the Left and Right

“There is a magic in this blending of the left and the right.

I mentioned that I'm three parts left. I'm one part right [View, bottom black arrow].

And that one part right for me is an enormously beautiful thing. It adds richness to my process.

It affects the way I look at the world.

So I don't have this strategic way of perceiving things. I have this right open process. And I can see how I can take the advantage of that rightness and the nature of my leftness and make them work together. And it changes the way in which we can deal with each other.

Look, the first thing that design does when you enter into your strategy and authority, what you really do is you open up the possibility that for the first time in your life you can be an honest creature. Honest. Honest.

We are a devious lying lot. We are. You know, we're sneaky creatures. We're full of all kinds of bullshit. We have it at every single level. All the politics, the gossip, the this, the that.

It goes on and on and on and on and on. You know, one of the things to recognize about what we are is that we are here to truthfully commune with the other.

And you can only even begin to do that if your mind isn't in charge of the decision-making trip. And you can imagine if you're right-minded and you're giving your mind authority to initiate decisions.

Wow, you're crazy.

Because you're going to be a loser in that movie. You really are. Because you're not built for it.

You're not. See, one of the things that I understand about the nine-centered being, I even had an illustration. I didn't put it up.

Blabbing away. Think about being a nine-centered being. We have what no other creature has ever had.

We have been given an opportunity to be able to live as a bioform without fear of survival. That's what it is to be a nine-centered being. Everything about the seven-centered being was fear. Fear-driven.

Everything about it. Fear-driven. Now, fear is useful. You know, out of fear we develop intelligence. That's what strategy is based on. But you see, the nine-centered being isn't like them.

First of all, the nine-centered being is fundamentally receptive, which means that we have a way of integrating on the material plane that no other creature before us had. That's why strategy and authority is such an incredible thing.

It's not about the psychological, spiritual advantages. It's about understanding the advantage in navigating on this plane. We are not here to suffer on the material plane. We are not here to spend our lives concerned about the material plane. We're not. We're not.

We're here to be able to operate out of an inner authority that is deeply, deeply, deeply attuned to the material world.

My spleen knows how to navigate on this plane. And it opens up an opportunity for my mind to be able to express itself without guile, to be able to do so honestly.

See, it's the whole thing about communion. I was having a conversation with somebody yesterday. And they were talking about the fact that they liked to argue. They enjoyed arguing. And I was thinking about that.

This is the whole left thing. You say this and the other person strategically challenges it. I mean, this is what it's all about.

And this is the way that it works. And you know, I mean, I had that as a kid. My father loved to play devil's advocate.

You know, horrible game, really, if you don't know how to play. You know, you say something no matter what it is, and he says the opposite. And he was really good at it.

He loved playing the game. I mean, I was smart enough to understand that I was being manipulated. And I would experiment with manipulating back.

Once I really shocked him because I said something and said the exact opposite. It was really insane what he said.

And I said, “wow, you're right”.

You know, this is the strategic. You know, this is the way that it works. We are not like this. I mean, this is not what our minds are for. It's not about arguing. It isn't about agreeing. You don't have to agree with the other person.

It's not about that.

This whole idea that everybody's got to agree with everybody and blah, blah, blah.

I live in a differentiated potential. In a differentiated potential, everybody's got a unique this or that. Everybody's got a unique perspective. There are many people that teach here who say things that I don't necessarily agree with. Why should I?

I have to agree with things. It isn't the point. And it's really something to understand. It's not the point. The point is outer authority. The point is the respect for the other.

The point is the interest that arises out of communion in which the communion is not rooted in strategic one-upmanship.

“My God's better than your God. My philosophy is better than your philosophy.”

I mean, please, you know, it isn't about any of that. If we're ever going to be able to truly commune with each other as beings, it's not about whether we're communing because we want people to agree with us or not, or like us or not. It's not about that.

It's just about releasing your outer authority. I don't give a damn if people don't understand, agree with whatever it is that I say.

So it is. I'm sure there's billions out there that would find it really uncomfortable what I say. I don't care. It's not the point.

And it doesn't upset me, you know. It's really something important for us to understand.

We're never going to be able to reach out to each other if we're caught up in all this strategic bullshit that you're trying to figure out what you think you should say before you say it, that you're concerned about the consequences of, you know, what you're going to say, the consequences of the decision-making, all these kinds of things, it's nonsense.

And it always goes back to the same thing.

It goes back to the kinds of relationships we have. You know, do you enter into a relationship correctly?

And do you enter into that relationship as yourself? If you're a right being, you have nothing to offer. You know, this is the thing I like about the right. The strategic always has to do its thing. Always. The right is just waiting.

I mean, this is their perfection.

And of course, if you don't have those forces around you that are going to tap into what that resource is, this is an enormous waste.

I mean, you know, there used to be this cliche about, you know, how horrible it is to waste the potential of a mind.

Well, the potential of the right is beyond our understanding and we're not tapping into it at all.

And this is what our future is going to demand.”

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."
