In recent months, I have noticed an uptick in social media videos about Human Design. People are showing an elevated interested in better understanding themselves and each other and are willing to learn new ways of becoming more self-aware.
This renewed intrigue reminded me of an article I wrote about this topic. The information I discovered was pivotal in my journey of self-discovery, so I wanted to share it in hopes that it can be helpful to you, too.

When it comes to human beings, there are many possibilities for the type of person each individual can turn out to be. Personalities and perspectives are unique, and each person has their own special way of moving through life.
There is one groundbreaking way to help you understand your genetic nature and where energy flows within your body. It’s called Human Design.
What is Human Design?
Human Design was created about 35 years ago by a Canadian man named Ra Uru Hu.
Its teachings are based on elements of various ancient systems like Western astrology, quantum physics, chakra systems, Kabbalah, and I Ching.
It is based around neutrinos, particles with a mass equivalent to zero, enabling them to be fast-moving. They are the foundation of the Human Design System, dictating how energy moves through us and influences our interactions.

Like mapping your astrology birth chart, the human design chart is calculated with your birthday, birth time, and place of birth.
Those details are used to create a snapshot of the cosmos at the very moment you entered the world, as well as three months prior to your birth when your brain was still developing in your mother’s womb.
These two snapshots are layers together to give you an energetic blueprint. From there, you can develop a mindset that fits your energy type.
In human design, there are 9 centers represented by geometric shapes in a BodyGraph. These hubs, like chakras, receive and transform energy that circulates throughout our bodies.
Those 9 centers are:
- the head (pressure, inspiration)
- Ajna (awareness, conceptualization)
- throat (manifesting, speaking, doing)
- “G” (self, love, direction)
- heart (motor skills, ego, willpower)
- spleen (immunity, intuition, awareness)
- solar plexus (emotions)
- root (adrenaline, stress)
- and sacral (life force, sexuality)
How To Determine Your Human Design Type
To get your human design type, go to the calculator at the Jovian Archive or use the one at My Human Design. As explained earlier, you will need your birth date, exact time of birth, and location of birth to calculate your chart.
Once calculated, you will find many elements in addition to your Human Design type.
Your “strategy” is the way your energy connects with the flow of life. If you align with it, you will attract opportunities and environments that help you to be who you truly are and fulfill you life’s purpose.
The “not-self theme” gives insight into the way you feel when you are not honoring your true design and trying to be something you are not.
The “inner authority” tells you how you make major life decisions that are right for you. It tells you how you empower yourself to take authority over your own life.
Your “profile” consists of two numbers called lines. The first is something you are conscious of, while the second is something you are likely unconscious of. There are 12 profiles:

The “definition” is the way our defined human design centers interact with each other. Yours can be set up in one of five ways:
- No definition: This has no defined centers and is specific to the Reflector human design type.
- Single definition: This means that all of your defined centers and channels are interconnected and flow together like a continuous circuit.
- Split definition: Also known as a simple split, this indicates two separate unconnected circuits with defined centers.
- Triple-split definition: This is three separate circuits that are not connected but have defined centers.
- Quadruple-split definition: This is four separate circuits that are not connected but have defined centers.
Finally, the “incarnation cross” is what defines your ultimate reason for being here. It uses positions of the Sun and Earth at our time of birth to define our life’s purpose. There are 192 possibilities.
