Human Design: The 5 Energy Types
What’s your energy type?
how are you meant to exchange energy with the world?
The 5 Energy Types + Strategies:
Manifestors- The initiators. When you think of something you want to call in, or do, you don’t have to wait to move yourself into action. You have an exceptional ability to bring in world whatever it is you envision. You often feel pressure to get things started and to create impact. Creation is the key to fulfilling your purpose. Your strategy is to inform anyone who will be impacted by your manifestations. Inform after you have made the decision, but before you act on it. When you inform, you lower the energetic resistance so that you can manifest in peace.
Generators & Manifesting Generators - The energy creators. Generator types are here to do meaningful work— the meaningful part is key. Doing the work you love gives you the feeling of complete satisfaction. The correct work will transform your life! Your strategy is to respond. Life must show you something first, you respond either “yes, that lights me up” or “no, that doesn’t” from your gut, and only then take action. Without the responding, the Generator does not know if what is ahead of them is truly an energetic fit and will likely lead to misalignment and frustration. Responding before taking action lets the Universe know “all green lights, here. Let the good times (and the right relationship, house, experiences) roll!”
Projectors- The seers. You are here to lead us, but the key is they must be asked to guide. Projectors have the gift of insight and see deeply into others but often struggle to fully see themselves. With your unique vision, you are here on earth to help the other types use their energy in the best way. Your strategy is to wait for the invitation. Your process may seem a bit slower than those around you, but that does not mean that you are “lazy.” A Projector waiting for the invitation to share or engage is completely in their power. When you wait for the opportunities to invite you in, you will be recognized for your wisdom + strengths. On the flip side, if you try to force it, you will likely meet challenges and resistance.
Reflectors- The mirrors. Unusually sensitive to the world around you, you pick up on the energies of everyone within your community. Your sense of well-being is like a temperature check of the community at the large. You naturally navigate change well but require time to make decisions. Reflectors are lunar beings. Your strategy is to wait a lunar cycle (28 days) before making a big decision. When you allow yourself to experience the ebbs and flows the lunar cycle, you can come to a decision that reflects the real you.
Understanding your energy type is just the beginning of what you can learn about yourself through Human Design. Human Design reveals how you uniquely make decisions, where you are open to external conditioning, and everything you need to live an optimal, aligned-AF-life, even down to how you digest food!
