‘The more respect we give to the 3rd line process, the more successful all of us are going to be.’
“1/3s by their very nature are heavy people. They are the heaviest of all profiles.
It’s lower trigram, it’s only lower trigram. And in saying heavy, this is not a moral negative judgment. It's about weight.
They’re heavier.
They’re more serious.
They’re more pessimistic than anybody else.
They have been more wounded than anybody else.
They bang themselves more often than anybody else. They’re so distrustful.
You say to a 1/3 profile “Good morning,” to get them to smile as a response—“well, I don't know if it's really going to be a good morning. I can remember days where I said 'Good morning' with a smile and then things went wrong.”
What’s this “Good morning?” What do you know about good mornings? I want to tell you how many lousy mornings I have.
[hilarious personal validation of this - I had a contentious relationship with my stepfather and it all began every day with his being offended that I didn’t return his ‘good morning’ 😄. Now with my own 1/3 son, I maybe say good morning and get silence, a rumble if I’m lucky and it makes giggle 🤭]
It’s all in the psychology. It’s all there. They’re heavy, they’re serious.
You say to them “Wow,” and they go “Yeah.”
They’re great for force-feeding them something to see whether it kills them or not, because they're great judges of those things.
I’m a very unusual employer. I have people who directly work for me. I am their employer. I provide their salary and their livelihood. I have two people on my payroll who are 1/3s. They’ve caused me a lot of problems, no joke. I used to have three, but one of them is dead.
They caused me a lot of problems. They’ve caused me enormous delays—everybody waiting for the free rave chart service.
They have their problems.
However, I have learned, because I understand them, if you give them enough time, if you treat them with respect through their failures, what you end up is incredible competency. This is the magic of the 3.
Ultimately, the 3rd line way is just another way of efficiency. If things don’t work, eventually the solution is a way in which things are made more efficient. It’s the way in which we work.
The more respect we give to the 3rd line process, the more successful all of us are going to be.”

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 🥳🥰🍿
FB prompts a reel, so I make a reel 🤷🏻♀️
One thing I got to really see again -
(discovered this a couple years back when I was doing dot mandala art and attempted a 24x24” canvas - it’s still not done 🤓)
With Emotional Authority, the whole “no truth in the Now” is so undeniable when it comes to making art.
And the longer it takes the more obvious it is.
Example - the first version in this reel, … I was actually feeling pretty great about it right after it was filled in and drying. But as you can see - it’s barely anything (and taking a picture of it helps cut through the wave I think - it’s easier to see more objectively somehow).
The second layer goes on and I’m like - omg - that’s different, maybe a hair better, but …. Nah. 😅
Then (there were hours and days between these steps) … I started just playing with it, I mean, nothing to lose, right?
I did reference a few of the pieces I’d done back during Zentangle season, was so so helpful to have those saved in ...
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 ...
“When you’re looking at your design and you’re looking at these gates, just because they don’t reach out to the other end, just because they’re not colored in, doesn’t mean that they aren’t very, very important for you in your life—they are.
And there is also something else, that the moment that you begin to understand this activation, the moment you begin to understand what happens to you when that particular theme of yours goes to work, is the moment you’re going to be able to recognize every single time that you’re conditioned.
Think about how important that is. One of the easiest tools for us to use in protecting ourselves against conditioning, is to understand what happens to our dormant gates.
Understanding what happens to these themes that become the active theme, the active focus, of the way in which we experience a center. Imagine that you have an open ajna center and you have the 17th gate, which is the gate of Opinions, which is where the Sun is today. And we ...
I have this full channel defined in black (conscious; I’m very familiar with it).
The right eye piece is interesting and makes me think about how much AI imagery really screws with my understanding of what I’m looking at. Could be that 62 being it’s reliable, consistent, rigid self. 🤔
Interesting.
“Gate 17 - The Gate of Opinions…. Following, Acceptance.
This gate is part of the Collective Understanding Circuit… it is rooted in Logic, and in this instance logic is trying to organize a solution from doubt (the Channel 63-4 is the source of this continued process of finding a solution).
Logic needs to be tested and verified, otherwise it is just an opinion… “proof is in the pudding”
The Harmonic Gate, the 62, on the other side is the Gate of Details, which are based in fact, not conjecture.
Therefore, a hanging Gate 17, is often struggling to find the details, which are really not its thing, so to speak… these people are here to give their opinion, but can get lost in the search for facts… ...
“Each of these nine Gates literally represents an addiction. We all have our relative addictions, and we all have addictions to the Sacral Center to varying degrees.
The addiction of the Projector to the Sacral is perhaps the most profound of all.
Imagine what it's like to be a Projector. If you look at the way in which you’re designed, look at the easiest way that you can connect to the Sacral and that’s your addiction.
If you've got a few of them, it gets more complex, because it really is.
And it’s not just simply that that’s a bridging Gate that is going to allow you to be able to energetically involve yourself in whatever, the reality is that it really is an addiction. It is something that you depend on.
If you look at your undefined Sacral Center, there are those of you that will have an undefined Sacral Center with a certain number of hanging Gates, either conscious or unconscious.
Or you’re going to have the Centers that connect to it—the G Center, the Spleen, the ...

"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."
