Can you feel it? The world is buzzing with a new energy. It's on fire, and it's not just climate change. It's like the universe is having a mid-life crisis, and we're caught in the crossfire. We're witnessing a seismic shift, a cosmic upheaval that's shaking the very foundations of our reality. Amidst the chaos, beauty emerges, always.
We must have faith in the process. Everything we're currently experiencing as a collective, as well as in our own personal lives, is intentional and necessary for us to move forward to create a world based more in authenticity and compassion.
The Age of Pisces has shaped the world for the last 2000+ years, symbolized by the two fish swimming in opposite directions, reflecting to us duality and the struggle between the physical and spiritual worlds. We are now headed into The Age of Aquarius, shifting us into a more progressive, inclusive, and authentic world. It's an incredible time to be on Earth to witness and contribute to this change.
As we navigate this wild, unfamiliar ride, it's time to upgrade our connection skills. We are not designed to be lone wolves. We must honor and acknowledge the impact of vulnerability and accept that we must be brave enough to show up in this way.
To live a life that truly lights us up, it's extremely helpful to understand our unique Human Design. It's like a cosmic cheat code that unlocks our hidden potential. So, let's dive into the five design types.
1. Manifestors (about 9-10% of the population):
Manifestors are the initiators and creators. They are here to get things started and often have a strong, impactful presence. Manifestors are meant to act independently and bring new ideas or movements into the world. They are typically driven, focused, and can operate without needing permission from others.
2. Generators (about 70% of the population, including Pure Generators and Manifesting Generators):
Pure Generators (about 35-37%): Generators are the life force of society, providing the energy to build, sustain, and maintain the world. They are meant to find work and activities that light them up, which in turn energizes them and those around them. Generators respond to life and are most effective when they wait to respond to opportunities rather than initiating action.
3. Manifesting Generators (about 33-35%): A subtype of Generators, Manifesting Generators are multitaskers and often have the ability to initiate like Manifestors but still need to wait to respond. They are highly energetic and can move quickly through life, handling multiple tasks at once.
4. Projectors (about 20% of the population):
Projectors are the guides, advisors, and leaders. They are here to understand and manage energy, guiding others in the most efficient use of their energy. Projectors often see things from a different perspective and are skilled at directing and leading, but they need to be invited into situations to share their insights effectively.
5. Reflectors (about 1% of the population): Reflectors are the rarest type and are known as the mirrors of society. They have the ability to reflect the health and well-being of their community or environment. Reflectors have a unique capacity to sense the energy of their surroundings and can be wise observers, offering deep insights into the state of things. They are highly sensitive and need time to process decisions, typically following the lunar cycle.

By understanding these differences and working together, we can create a powerful synergy that benefits both individuals and society as a whole.
Projectors are here to lead and guide us into a new era. However, our leadership style is different from the traditional top-down approach. We focus on guiding and showing the way, fostering collaboration rather than hierarchy.
We have unique abilities that allow us to see deeply into others. We can spot potential issues and understand the systems and processes needed to achieve the best possible outcome. Each of us has a specific area of expertise where our knowledge and guidance can benefit humanity.
Deconditioning ourselves is a complex yet necessary journey that each projector must embark upon.
Here are some tips that have helped me personally.
Tips for Projectors:
Become comfortable with the idea that you are DIFFERENT. Your life is not going to look like the majority of people around you. Embracing your uniqueness can feel challenging and extremely vulnerable. Though doing the opposite usually has much harsher consequences.
Learn to rest—create an inspiring list of ways you can rest and recharge.
At least 1 hour a day in nature, alone, without technology.
Connect to your inner child. Intentionally do activities that you loved doing as a child.
Learn how to play again—play just for PLAY. Can you learn how to do something just for fun, rather than doing something to achieve an outcome? (This has been so much fun for me. Recently I have been going to the playground, flying fox and trampoline, and I bought a scooter for myself. Best idea everrr!)
Learn about your specific human design, embody your strategy and authority, and say NO to doing anything any other way!
Learn your needs, figure out how to meet these needs yourself, then share them with people who are close to you so they are informed and can learn how to support you in ways that work better for YOU. You are more than worthy of asking these things from people who love you, I promise.
Learn your own unique body cues alerting you that you are in burnout. We are very prone to burnout and didn't come equipped with the ability to know when we have had enough. I have had to learn and understand my body's subtle cues. For example, there is a spot on my forehead that gets sore when I have pushed myself too far. I will notice my mind chatter increases, and I start to feel bitter/negative.
Sleep alone! I cannot recommend this enough. We are constantly absorbing the energies of those around us. Sleep is an important time for us to be in our own energy and recharge. If you can, try to sleep alone at least 3 nights a week. Start to become aware of how you feel waking up when you sleep alone vs. when you don't.
Tips for Supporting Your Projector Loved One:
Invite them! Even if you think it goes without saying, we need you to say it!
Share with them what you notice about them, how they impact your life and the world around them. Often.
Ask them for advice. A simple question like, "What did you notice there?" can really make a Projector feel valued for their insights.
Give them credit if they have given you advice and you have used it. A common feeling for Projectors is to feel overlooked or forgotten for sharing their guidance after you have achieved your desired outcome.
Honor their need for rest. If you want to go one step further, encourage them to and create opportunities for them to rest. Now that's what I call love!
Encourage activities in nature. Nature is incredibly soothing to our systems. It has specific energies we can absorb that help recharge and cleanse our aura.
Human Design has profoundly transformed my life over the past four years, guiding me
toward a deeper understanding of myself and my purpose. I firmly believe that true change begins with the journey of uncovering and embracing our authentic selves. As we peel away the layers of conditioning and false identities, we move closer to living our truth and fulfilling our unique roles in this world. This process of self-discovery not only empowers us but also fosters greater kindness, grace, and love in our interactions with others.

As we enter the Age of Aquarius - a time that calls for deeper connection and greater understanding - embracing our true nature through tools like Human Design becomes even more essential. For Projectors, who are natural guides in this new era, aligning with their design can lead to profound personal and collective transformation. Together, by living authentically and honoring each other's unique paths, we can co-create a future filled with compassion and unity.
