Human Design: Discover the Person You Were Born to Be

by Chetan Parkyn

Your word is your bond and you wish to live in a community called Trust and Fairness, viewing the world as a large family.

As you seek purpose in life, you need like-minded allies who support your goals.

You need to know you can trust the people around you.

Your life can sometimes feel like a great tragedy or a great joy — and all the roles are delivered with passion.

The sooner you accept that life is going to be profound, the easier it will become. Honor your emotions. Make them your friend.

half-colored channels are not defined but the colored gate is activated and has the potential to connect with the gate at the other end of the channel in someone else’s design.

well as showing our individual distinguishing marks, life charts can illustrate what differentiates us from others and what connects us.

you have singled out the messages contained within your gates, you can set about discovering the gates of truth within your nearest and dearest, or potential love interests, to discover the common ground, the dynamics, and compatibilities in any relationship or association.

shared gates provide the essential glue that holds a relationship or friendship together when the going gets tough.

You are someone whose nature has the knack of right timing — if you exercise patience.

A routine leads you to keep in step with the natural rhythms that maintain your momentum.

Commitment becomes a gift when you say “yes” to the right things, but a potential curse when engaged without clarity. Remember, you are searching for a “yes” that is in genuine alignment with your nature.

The Clinging Fire, this gate relates to the desires burning within you, the longing to engage with life and experience all its offerings.

let go of any expectations before entering into a relationship, pursuit, or experience, because attachment to an outcome leads to disappointment, whereas being receptive and open to what you feel and what an experience teaches you leads to fulfillment.

You will know that life can be lived out in two ways: one, where you get the sense that something might be worth doing but are not sure if it is “allowed,” so you tiptoe into it and get trapped in never really having the experience; or, two, where you find your clarity, follow your feelings, and dive deeply into the totality of an experience, coming out of the other side with a “Wow! That was impressive!”

There is a strong sense of the family about you. Sitting around a table breaking bread with those you love can make up some of your favorite moments — and also explains your fondness for food!

Family is everything to you, the solid foundation of your life.

you are a mountain, containing the same core strength and carrying a silent stillness that others admire.

remember that from the Mountain you have an unparalleled view of things and can bring an unrivaled perspective.

you can sometimes be immovable and obstinate, but your clarity is what counts.

You trust in life and this becomes contagious, a natural spark capable of igniting everyone around you. You make a difference to the world with a natural exuberance that trusts in the challenges and windfalls that come your way.

your lesson is to continue to see the joy in everything but to commit to that which resonates.

first lines bring a foundational quality to a gate. With these lines, you seek sturdy foundations to work from. You need to understand and feel secure.

they can bring an inherent discipline to embrace an aspect of life completely. They can make certain traits also appear hard and assertive, with a deep introspection attached.

second lines bring a natural effortless and carefree quality to a gate. There is little self-awareness and much self-consciousness here,

shyness often belies a fierce passion, but when that passion is harnessed and recognized, second lines add a dash of innovation and an easygoing attitude.

third lines bring a touch of innovation and flair to a gate, but there is something noncommittal, evasive, indecisive, and quite impersonal about the third-line influence.

Fourth lines bring a heartfelt, selfless, all-inclusive element to a gate, carried by an “all for one and one for all” attitude.

fifth line brings the influence of a teacher or guide, instilling leadership and management qualities. It adds an educational,

sixth line adds a compassionate, humanitarian element to a gate. It represents the uppermost level of a gate.

The difficulty here is maintaining interest because, due to your lofty position, your head can be in the clouds.

You are witnessing life through your senses, no one else’s, respecting your perspective, no one else’s.

This profile is almost a portrait of your primary way of being and orientation in life. It is the third key to unlocking a fundamental part of your inner nature, following the other two important keys to remember: type and authority.

profiling is a widely used evaluation tool indicating a person’s typical behavior, temperament, communication style, and attitude.

You are a restless soul,

you’ll be off in pursuit of the next stimulation, in an endless search for stability and steady ground in a changeable world.

you are, quite literally, a natural-born role model whose wisdom, perception, and vision can be both a gift and a stabilizing force in your world.

You are just one of those people who can see what needs to happen and how to bring all the missing pieces together to form a bigger, more coherent picture.

You are here to be a role model and are known as someone with high ideals, high s...

you’re constantly absorbing information on an insatiable quest for knowledge and new interests.

you might not readily appreciate is an unconscious reticence to use your abilities to the fullest.

You personally prize your precious time and energy, so a commitment really has to be worth your while if it is to be fulfilling.

your wisdom and inspiration need air and appreciation, which require you to put them out there.

When you are engaged with a person or project, there can be a tendency to juggle too many plates or try to conquer the world.

you need a place of solitude in which to recharge and take stock.

What 6/2s really seek, whether expressed or not, is someone who can climb mountains with them and keep expanding mutual horizons. Show 6/2s a new place, or surprise them with something novel, and their natures will coo.

Ultimately, our life’s quest is to be the person we were born to be.

self-realization first requires acceptance, allowing, awakening, and authenticity:

Accepting the realities of your true nature, overcoming conditioning, and...

Allowing yourself to fall back with confidence on the potential within, revealing your true expression
