ARIES  I Am

 
Naomi Wildman was the first child aboard Voyager.  She was born while being lost in the Delta quadrant and Voyager is the only home she's ever known.  Because of this Naomi has dreams of doing great things and being as heroic and important as Seven of Nine or the Captain. She tends to follow rules but she's still a child and she often acts without thinking in an effort to do the right thing. Yet she's not afraid when trouble does arrive and is known as a brave and honorable Captain's assistant and friend.

TAURUS  I Have
 
Harry Kim is fresh out of Starfleet. He is most comfortable when he is carrying out Captain Janeway's orders- giving it all of his magnificent hand-clasped Starfleet fighting skills, courage and gift for battlefield improvisation. He is not all that comfortable when the mantle of leadership is placed over his broad shoulders. He is reluctant to assume authority until it is clear that he has no choice but to lead. However, he is resolute, fair and courageous beyond reproach. He is unstinting in his preparedness so that his "people" will be as protected as possible.

GEMINI  I Think
 
Neelix is a Talaxian born on Rinax who became a part of USS Voyager's crew, serving as chef, morale officer, ambassador, navigator, and holder of many other odd-jobs.  He is known for his cheerful optimism and many stories of his personal explorations as a Delta quadrant native.

CANCER  I Feel

Lieutenant Tom Paris is a romantic at heart, known for being the playboy of the ship until his heart gets taken by the fiery Klingon B'elanna.  He loves B'elanna but may also be frightened of ever breaking up with a Klingon woman.  Tom also has a love of the seas, saying he had read Jules Verne's ''Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea'' at least twenty thousand times.  As a child he was obsessed about stories of the ocean and sailing and he had planned to join the Fedartion Naval Patrol after high school.  However, his father had other ideas and as far as he was concerned, the only ship Tom was ever going to serve on had to have Starfleet insignia on it.

LEO  I Will


B'elanna is a former member of the Maquis and became the Chief Engineer of Voyager despite her Klingon temper.  As part of the Maquis she was acting as engineer in Chakotay's crew in the fight against the the Cardassian Empire and her determination to exterminate them led her to pursue them across the Badlands, where her ship was drawn into the Delta quadrant.  It took quite a while to accept herself as part of a Starfleet crew but she relishes in the challenge.

VIRGO  I Analyze
 
Icheb was rescued from the Borg and is in the process of being rehabilitated and discovering what it is to be an individual. Outwardly cool and calm, this analytical, rational and ever perceptive young man is proving himself to be nearly indispensable with his abilities to ascertain data, compile statistics and process information mathematically.

LIBRA  I Balance

Leader of the Maquis, Chakotay, makes the transition to First Officer of Voyager very smoothly, to say the least.  He effectively inserts his own Maquis crew into the Voyager hierarchy as well as any peacemaker can.  Chakotay is easy-going and he has an unfailing optimism and good humor that make him extremely diplomatic along with the ability to see the various perspectives of any situation. He combines courage with the willingness to sacrifice himself for his friends and the sake of his mission.

SCORPIO  I Desire

Tuvok starts out aboard the Maquis fighting vessel as part of Chakotay's crew, unknown to everyone aboard he is secretly a Starfleet spy.  As a teenager, he rebelled against the Vulcan ideal of logic and reasoning when he fell in love with a Terrelian girl named Jara, the daughter of an ambassador to Vulcan.  Tuvok was willing to violate every tenet of Vulcan philosophy simply to be near her; unfortunately, Jara did not return Tuvok's feelings, and Tuvok chose to leave her.  He later spent several months in isolation studying with a Vulcan master, where he learned to subdue his emotions and desires.

SAGITTARIUS  I Aim

The Emergency Medical Hologram, known simply as the Doctor, is the only medical crewman that Voyager has aboard when the Caretaker strands them in the Delta quadrant.  Being left on for more than 6 years running he has certainly exceeded his original programming in many ways; from being an Opera star on planet Quomar to being able to travel to the Alpha quadrant in a communications wormhole (several times) to creating a penis for himself and winning the hearts of several alien women (even having a child on the weird planet displaced in time).  While at first he wasn't known for his bedside manner, he later becomes very close with all the crew, because, in his own words,
 "In the beginning, there is darkness – the emptiness of a matrix waiting for the light. Then a single photon flares into existence. Then another. Soon, thousands more. Optronic pathways connect, subroutines emerge from the chaos and a holographic consciousness is born."

CAPRICORN  I Build

Captain Janeway uses her skills as a scientist and explorer to lead the starship Voyager and, if necessary, to fight; all while never breaking the Prime Directive. A model "head of the family" type, she can be immensely kind and her compassion extends to all that lives.  Still, she will battle unceasingly to protect the weak and defend what she and Starfleet stand for. Captain Janeway knows that it will be decades before reaching home in the Alpha quadrant and shoulders the responsibility seemingly effortlessly.  She will finish what was started by the Caretaker and bring her crew safely home with their Starfleet values intact.

AQUARIUS  I Know

Of all the crew of Voyager, Seven of Nine's method of operation is most characterized by the cold, brutal efficiency one would expect of a partially mechanical being. Brought up by the Borg from a very young age and then ''rescued'' by the crew of the Voyager, she is learning what it is to be an individual and all that it entails.  She enters every situation not with the emotions of her comrades, but with a scientist's approach to solving a problem. She thinks of Voyager as her new collective and hers is a struggle between focusing on the needs of her new collective and learning to have interpersonal relationships.

PISCES  I Believe

Kes is an Ocampa who joined the USS Voyager after it came to the Delta Quadrant by the Caretaker's Array.  For over 3 years she was a valuable member of the crew and in love with Neelix.  She started out working with Neelix in the kitchen but her compassion brought her in the Sick Bay where she learned to be the Doctor's assistant.  She learned to be a field medic and also was in charge of the airponics bay, helping the plants grow.  She eventually left Voyager in order to explore her increasingly powerful psychic abilities.

HD: Notes On The Pulse Mechanism

The great, wonderful, informative site HumanDesign.Com has been taken down. Big sad face : (

I'm trying to go through my notes and see what I saved. I am praying that Gennaro Brooks-Church decides to do something with all the wonderful files from that site!
_____________________________________________________________

Note on the Pulse Mechanism

The format energy of this channel has a frequency that is a pulse (On-Off-On-Off), and the mutation actually takes place in between the pulse. It occurs in the unknown moment, in between the fingers, in between the notes.

Imagine if we cast a giant strobe on the earth as it hurdles through space. When the strobe is turned on, the earth is illuminated but when the strobe is off there is nothing but black space. As the earth moves 107,300 km/h (or 67,062 miles/hr) it actually looks stationary when the strobe freezes it in time. Yet each time the earth is lit up it is in a different place. This is because it mutates during the blackness.

This is how the Knowing circuit group works. Mutation changes without notice. Since all of the Format channels are an accentuation of their circuit group's main themes, this pulse mutation is especially strong in the Format channel 3-60.

HD: Living Your Design

I began taking the Living Your Design (LYD) course last week and now I understand why it's recommended for beginners.  Truly, if you are interested in HD and you have a million questions, it's best to start learning it from the beginning.  It seems obvious, but I know it took me long enough to get started on formally taking the courses.

At first, I suppose the price kept me away.  I've found that if you write to Human Design America, or wherever you decide to take these beginner courses, and let them know your financial situation, they will work with you.  Just ask and you can receive.  That's what I did and after a 6 year wait, now I'm taking the course.  It's a shame too that I waited so long to just ask about payments, because if you are under 30, there's a discount.  So, I missed out on that by 2 years, lol.  (Also, there's a discount if you are a Projector, no matter the age)

There is so much to learn about our unique designs and the designs of those we interact with everyday and Human Design is set up so that we can all enjoy what it offers!

What Is Human Design?

by Ra Uru Hu, founder of The Human Design System

"The Human Design System is not a belief system. It does not require that you believe in anything. It does not require that you believe in me. It is not stories. It is not philosophy. It is a concrete map to the nature of being. It is a logical way in which we can see ourselves.

With Human Design, just knowing the simple mechanics of your design is enough to make a vast difference in your life. The irony of what it is to be a human being is that we're caught at the surface of understanding and accepting our nature and the cosmos around us. We are just at the surface. It doesn't matter how intelligent we are. It doesn't matter the labels that we attach to that intelligence - whether we call it "enlightened" or whether we call it "genius". There is a vast underlying ignorance of how our bodies operate.
The Human Design System is a reading of your genetic code. This ability to be able to detail the mechanics of our nature in such depth is obviously profound because it reveals our complete nature in all its subtleties. However, it is not necessary for you to know Human Design in great depth. That is the job of the professional analyst.

What this work aspires to communicate is simply the surface mechanics of your nature. That will give you grounding in your life that is immediately going to bring a difference to your life process.

These essential truths are simple because they are mechanical. The way in which our genes operate is purely mechanical, and the moment we try to interfere with their operation we descend into a life of confusion, chaos, and pain. In the end, our genes will have their way.

We are passengers in these bodies. We are passenger consciousness experiencing life going by. Buddha taught that the body is not yours. It is not. Yet at the same time, we are totally dependent on it. This is the tragedy of a sick body. We are totally dependent on our vehicles. To learn how to operate them properly immediately brings benefits. This is not complex and it will not be in complex language. It is very straightforward and very logical. It is accessible to anyone of any age. It is knowledge for the world.

In my teaching of Human Design and the training of Human Design analysts, students of mine have ranged from fourteen years old to being well into their eighties. There is no limitation and there is no barrier denying anyone from grasping these essential truths about themselves. This is not simply about saying, "Aha, I'm this or I'm that". This is not just another profiling system. It is about having the opportunity to do something with the knowledge. It is about being able to be able to act on it and experiment with its logic. This brings the remarkable experience of finding and ultimately living one's true life.

Glossary Of Human Design Terms

HD: Emotional Solar-Plexus Center Waves

The way Gate 6 is described, it doesn't sound like a WAVE. He describes it as a motor that idles or stalls. That isn't a WAVE, that's mechanics. Does anyone get this metaphor? Is there anything anyone can share with me about this Gate? My sun is there and my earth is in 36, 36 is a WAVE...a wave's wave, really. And I get that....but Gate 6 is simply a motor that's on or off, do I have that right?

_________________________________________________________

A Wave
 

The emotional center goes up and down in a biochemical wave. This wave can be a few seconds long or several years. A defined solar plexus will have millions of waves intertwined. Each circuit has a distinct wave style. The three streams are the tribal, individual and collective, with the keynotes Need/Passion/Desire respectively. Furthermore, each channel has minor emotional keynotes:

Tribal:
59/6 IDLE/STALL
19/49 NEED
49/37 RACHET/SNAP

Individual:
12/22 PASSION
55/39 SPIKE/LOCK

Collective:
30/36 DESIRE
30/36 CRASH/EXPLODE

                                  





Tribal

The tribal wave slowly builds and crashes quickly . Imagine a family that works hard to build a good life. Things are going good, life is getting better. And then one day somebody is hit by a car. From one moment to the next the emotions crash. 

The tribal emotional keynote is Need. The most basic theme underlying need is sensitivity (19-49). These are the most most sensitive or insensitive or oversensitive beings beings on the planet. Their sensitivity builds slowly, but can plummet very quickly and they become insensitive to your needs, for example. 

The (49/37) is the ratchet/snap wave. Ratcheting is two steps forward and one step back. Like a car stuck in snow or ditch, rocking back and forth to build momentum to get out of the spot. If you say something they feel is insensitive you may not get a reaction in the moment. It takes time to build, to ratchet up to a point of snapping. They take it in and sit with it but inside it is building up, and then with no real event of consequence, maybe a slight transgression or look, they snap. Their emotions explode.

The 59/6, although tribal, is an exception. It works as an idle/stall stall energy. In this case the crash is a stall. For example, since this is the channel of intimacy, stalling creates the pleasure of orgasm. It is the reopening and the returning on of the motor that floods the being with pleasure after a slow build up to climax. This channel is an exception becuase the 6th gate actually embodies all three of the other wave energies.

Individual

The individual (55/22) passion is vastly different from need. Need is need in the basic sense. If you want to see what human being really need in this life then go to the source of need (19) and you’ll see the need for proper resources, shelter, god, food, and partner is all there. If you do not have this it immediately creates problems in the tribe. 

But passion is not about need. Passion is rubbing two sticks together and building a fire that’s so hot, it cracks the rocks underneath. Passion does not burn like an immediate fire like desire. Passion often starts very cool. This is a channel of emoting and putting the emotion out. The 39-55 is born theatrics like Marlon Brando. It is about getting the emotions out.

The wave of the individual is spike/lock. It is difficult to read the emotional quality of the individual. Almost all are operating in a lock state. The nature of where that lock is goes back to the very beginning of their process in this life. Individuals don’t really wave, they spike and when they spike, they lock. 

If a 39-55 child has a traumatic experience when they are young they can end up with a locked frequency at a certain level and may stay slightly below or above this level that is considered a norm and it is very hard to read them. 

The passion and its connection to the lock are at the very mystery of romantic love. The passion can build to such a point that one is locked into that passion. This is where you have the tradition of unrequited love. You spend a lifetime enthralled and adoring somebody you can never have and yet not feeling unfulfilled. 

When you are dealing with individuality and mutation, there is a deep potential for depression. This is a deeply creative process leading up to the 12th gate. It is possible for individuals to be locked into deep spikes and never recover. There are many examples of creative beings who get locked into deep melancholies and depressions.

Collective

Desire (30/36) is not passion and doesn’t have a chance to grow. Desire must never be confused with need. It is one of the mysteries of the human experiential way that beneath the motor there is no consciousness. It is just a motor and part of the magnificence of the choicelessness of being. 

The collective way shows us that we have no choice but to go from inexperience to experience, driven by desire. There is no choice at all. What is so dynamic in the nature of desire is that this is the crash and explode wave. There is nothing like the explosion at the end of a crash wave. 

Not all of this has to be so dramatic. Many emotional beings regardless of their level of awareness begin to recognize the impact of their emotional field one way or the other. Many of these beings feel guilty for being emotional. The solar plexus center is one of the great binaries. It has horror and the absolute of the pleasure that it can bring. Unfortunately there is so much not-self emotional, no truth in the now blundering on the planet and we all have to live with the aftermath of it. 

The process of desire is never about satisfaction. It can never be satisfied. Satisfaction is logical. It’s in the 18-58. You can never be satisfied if you are ruled by desire. It can only bring you more desire. Without it we would still be hunter/gathers. The desire drives us forward at a great pace.

HD: Superhero Profiling by Genoa

After 6 years of being a Human Design enthusiast, I finally got my chart interpreted!  It's so rare that I get a reading for myself....in fact, I've never gotten a professional astrology reading, I just became an astrologer.  And so, here is an excerpt from my reading with Genoa Bliven, head of Human Design America.

I can respond to have intimate relations to go through emotional clarification so that I can be in the flow and succeed in going through crisis and transition with other people, that that's all part of the creative flow.  I can respond and engage with other people and emotionally evaluate that response to see whether I can discover how to be in the flow in this rhythm with other people in order to succeed and going through catharsis and make progress through crisis.  I keep growing and keep developing and this is what people get when they connect with me.

Split Conditioning: 35, 22, 7, 8

Who is open?  Look to see who is open as opposed to me being the one who is open (22).  I can become the expert on who is open.  I can become the expert on who can make progress through the crisis (35).  I have the influence and curiosity about who can succeed and be a leader, I'm the kingmaker.  I can lend my success and influence to this person (7).  These splits are where I can exercise my authority.  I will help this leader (7) to succeed, I will help this person represent creativity in the world (8), I will help this person be more open than they are (22), because I can feel the potential of their openness.  I will help this person make progress (35), I will get to make progress with them.  It's all about partnership and relationship.

All I need to do is be in the flow, know that I'm here to succeed and be intimate, and wait until people ask me...then I'm hard to get, that's my strategy.  Got nothing to prove, don't need to be in a hurry in a manner that provokes people, because I bonded with them before I was ready.  I don't need to make spontaneous decisions.

I'm not here to be the one who helps everyone make progress with their crisis, I have my own crisis (36).  I need someone who can see that and be aware of my crisis and lend a hand with the progress to be made (35--BoB).  And I'll help them succeed beyond their wildest expectations.  I am super curious about all of that.

I make decisions about the open areas of my chart.  I make decisions about those things from my Sacral, this is the first step, and the Solar-Plexus as the second step in the process.  Depth, taking a lot of time, then I can be that teacher, then I can be the person who has been sufficiently cautious in order to teach them, in order to be the Prophetess and the High Priestess to help them make a leap.  To succeed at making a leap.  I can be the coach, the teacher of the leader.  I would be coach and the teacher of the person who will help us make progress through the crisis.  And I get success at making progress through the crisis through being able to teach them.

I can realize Eden by realizing who is calling me?  Am I willing, am I able to respond to them?  Can I teach them?  Are they promising material?  Are they asking me in a way that seems authentic?  Do they understand emotional process and what going through things emotionally is all about?  In that case, yes, I can be in the flow, I can succeed with this person.
