Planets in your Human Design Chart

Each Chart has a total of 26 “activations” made by the 13 planets. Although there are 64 possibilities of gates that a person can express, they will have 26 activations. There can be overlap where a person has the same gate in multiple planets - this is an indicator that they should focus on this gift and theme. Your soul chose your chart in order to be the person and accomplish what you are here to do in this lifetime.

 The black right side of the chart depicts the planets position at the moment of your birth and the red left side of the chart depicts the planets positions approximately three months prior to birth. 

Each planet has an archetype / theme & provides a lens to view each gate and profile line through.

Sun

  • What you are here to share with the world

  • Your main life force energy - Where you shine in the world. What you’re here to give the world: Your personality, creative talent and power.

  • The first impression that others have of you.

  • According to Ra, most of the neutrinos that create the design/personality come from the Sun. Hence - Your profile is determined by the lines associated with sun gates, and why the incarnation cross is determined by which gate the conscious Sun lives in. 

  • Yang energy - go out and do / what others see in you

Earth

  • What you’re mean to be grounded in

  • Yin energy to the yang of Sun.

  • What you need in order to be stable and grounded to accomplish your sun’s purpose.

  • Through your Earth gates, you bring to form the gifts and lessons of the Sun.

  • It’s all about receiving the lessons from the Earth gates in order to bring balance and heal.

  • Energies we get from the Sun and the Earth are always operating together - can’t have one without the other.

North Node

  • North Node is opposite to the South Node. It shows the new territory you’re treading & where you are moving towards in this lifetime.

  • Mercury in Mind column (black): what you need to communicate in this life

  • Design/Body (red): may be unsure of what you have to communicate but still has something to say. This is where you may find yourself sharing something but we’re not really sure why. 

  • The Gates in our Mercury gives insight into what you are here to share and how you think.

  • With this awareness, choose which channels and ways to communicate is best for you (i.e. how you are designed to share) - instagram, lives, linkedin, youtube, podcasts, newsletters, blogs, mail.

  • What energy are you to emulate / talk about when you are using these channels

  • Your values, ideals, aesthetic standards, relationship wants/needs

  • Morals, ethics, beliefs, self-worth, relationship to material/money, natural partner (attraction), love

  • Less personal, more collective

  • Renewal, and rebirth

  • It represents endings and new beginnings, as well as spiritual growth and rebirth

  • More generational energies than personal but each will experience and embody the energy differently

Look to each gate and the planet it is activated by. It will give greater meaning, depth, nuance and applicability to your life. For example, you have gate 47 in your conscious mercury - you are here to communicate and share those realisations that come to you. Or you have gate 46 in your earth - you need to ensure you are feeling balanced and healthy in your mind, body and soul in order to be able to show up and express your sun gifts.

Just play with this all. We dive so much deeper and apply it directly to your life in the Certification or in a Reading. Sending love! xx
