Welcome to the Lifestyle,
Relationship and Career Human Design series on Insight Timer,
Where we use human design to help you be on purpose so you can fulfill your potential in
All areas of life.
I'm Vanessa Najda and I am so excited to share this incredible system with you.
It's always a good idea to have your human design chart when listening.
You can get yours by doing an internet search for free human design chart.
Hi,
Welcome to episode 29 of the podcast,
Where we will be discussing and going into an overview
Of the human design profiles.
Your profile is a very significant part of who you are,
And it's actually one of the fundamental basics of human design.
We've already covered type and
Strategy and your authority,
Which is how you make decisions,
Really most important parts
And most practical parts.
And now we're going into profile,
Which is
Another huge part of who you are.
Your human design profile
Tells you a lot about how you will fulfill your purpose in life.
This is the role that you play,
And it gives you a lot of information about really important aspects of your learning style,
Your relationship style,
Interactions with other people,
And potentially impactful life cycles.
Profile is another level of differentiation,
Which makes you so different from other people.
So even if you have the same type and the same authority or decision-making style as someone
Else,
Having a different profile is going to make you very unique just based on that alone.
And if you have the same profile as somebody else,
You're going to understand that person,
And they're going to understand you on a very unique level.
So let's talk a little bit about where profile comes from and where you can find it on your chart.
On most charts,
There's going to be a little information section.
This tells you your type,
Your strategy,
Your authority.
Usually there will be a listing for profile.
The profile is listed as two numbers.
It's a fraction.
So it could be like 1-3,
2-4,
5-1.
There are 12 different possibilities.
And sometimes it'll say the fraction,
The number,
And your type and strategy,
Or your type and authority.
So in my case,
For instance,
I'm a 5-1 emotional manifesting generator.
So on a lot of charts,
That's how it's going to
Show up at the very top.
You can also look at your body graph.
And on the right and left side,
You see the astrological glyphs,
The planetary placements.
We went into detail about this in
Last week's episode.
And the very top ones on the right side,
Your conscious sun,
It's going to
Look like a circle,
Usually with a dot in it,
Followed by a number between 1 and 64,
A decimal
Point,
And then another number between 1 and 6.
So that number after the decimal point between 1
And 6,
That's the first part of your profile.
And on the left side of the chart,
Same glyph.
This is your unconscious sun.
Again,
A number between 1 and 64,
Decimal point,
A number between
1 and 6.
That is the second part of your profile.
The way that these numbers,
They come from the
Chinese I Ching.
And I went into detail about this in last week's episode,
Episode 28.
So if you want
To really dive deep into that,
And you haven't listened to that episode,
I highly recommend it.
And I'll just give a little overview here.
The I Ching hexagrams,
They're made up of six
Different lines.
So 1,
2,
3,
4,
5,
6.
And depending on which of those lines was highlighted
In your birth chart,
In your conscious and unconscious sun,
That is what makes up your
Profile.
It is a huge part of who you are.
In BG5,
We call these profile lines qualities.
BG5 is the business application of human design.
And every one of the planetary placements in your
Chart is going to have one of these lines,
Which is going to add an additional nuance or quality
To how that aspect plays out in your life.
And again,
The profile ones are the most important
And significant ones.
Now,
Each number,
This is really an archetype.
Each number has also a key
Note that's attached to it.
And I will go over which ones they are shortly.
That really gives
You some insight into what this means about you.
We do have two numbers,
Two parts of our profile.
For example,
Like I said before,
I'm a 5'1".
The first number in your profile is going to be
The conscious part of your profile.
And again,
We talked about conscious and unconscious
Two weeks ago in episode 27.
You may want to review that episode as well.
The conscious part
Of your design.
In human design,
We often talk about this as the personality side,
The conscious side.
And this is going to be an aspect that you probably know about yourself.
When you hear about this profile line,
You're going to likely think,
Oh yeah,
I really identify
With that.
The second number is the unconscious side.
And we'll refer to this in human design
Often as the design or the body side.
And you may not feel as identified with that.
Remember,
It's unconscious.
Other people in your life will probably,
You know,
If you tell them
What this is,
They'll be like,
Oh yeah,
I knew this about you.
This is really obvious about you.
And if you've done a lot of personal development work,
A lot of introspection,
You may also
Be aware of this already.
If you're in later stages of life,
You probably also identify with this.
So the human design profile lines,
Big aspect of who you are.
They're numbers one through six.
There is a possible 12 different combinations of these.
And again,
They are,
They come from
The hexagrams of the E chain.
There are the first three lines,
So numbers one,
Two,
And three.
And these are more introspective personal aspects of who you are.
Most people are going to have
One of these in their profile,
With the exception of the four,
Six profile.
Most people are going
To have one,
Two,
Or three somewhere on the conscious or unconscious side of the profile.
The numbers four,
Five,
And six,
These are more transpersonal,
More outward facing lines.
And
Again,
Most people are going to have one of these in their profile,
Unless you are a one,
Three profile.
So we have a combination,
Most of us,
Of these inward facing and outward facing
Aspects.
And as most things in human design,
It's a binary.
We have these two different aspects,
And they are often,
You know,
We talk about duality,
They're often very different.
And these are aspects of our design that we want to bring into wholeness.
They may have very
Different ways of expressing themselves.
They can,
You know,
Be a little bit at odds with each other.
And that is part of our process through life,
Is to really bring these two parts of us together.
And remember,
Your profile is a big part of how you live out your life purpose.
And you will,
Once you really learn and understand this about yourself,
You will,
You will notice this playing out in many different areas of your life.
We're going to talk about a little overview of those six lines in today's episode,
And I'm going
To dive deeper into each line in the next six weeks,
And then going deeper into the profiles as
Well.
So the first line,
In traditional human design,
This is known as the investigator.
And in BG5,
We call this the authority.
The first line is the foundation.
They like to build a
Really solid foundation.
They like to go deep into the foundation of things,
And they tend to really
Like to investigate,
To research,
To study.
Because first lines operate on a basis of insecurity,
And they are looking to build that secure foundation,
And they do so through a lot of
Information and knowledge.
First lines in BG5,
Known as the authorities,
Through all the studying,
The investigating,
The research that they do,
They can become real authorities on their particular
Interests that they are then meant to share with others.
This is one of the bottom three numbers,
So this does tend to be more introspective.
They like to be in their own space,
Studying,
Doing their research,
Kind of being left alone when they do that studying.
And then eventually,
They are meant to share that,
Depending on the other line in the profile,
In some way.
The second line,
And I will give a little caveat,
The traditional human design language,
It's not
Very literal necessarily,
And it's not always very empowering.
So you can take the traditional name
At face value.
The second line is known as the hermit in traditional human design,
And as the
Natural in BG5.
Second lines,
They tend to be naturally gifted and naturally talented at things.
However,
They can also be a little bit naive about it,
Like they don't necessarily see
Their gifts or their natural talents as anything special,
And they might assume everybody is good
At this.
And the second lines also don't necessarily know how they do what they do,
They just do it.
They do like to spend time alone in their own process,
Engaging with their natural
Talents.
And,
You know,
Sometimes you don't like other people coming into their space.
However,
They are meant to be called out eventually to share their natural talents with other people.
Their natural talents are a gift that isn't meant to be shared.
If you have a second line in your
Profile,
Pay attention to the things people tell you that you're really good at.
Because if it's
Something that you love,
That really lights you up,
This might be something that you are really
Meant to share with others.
And that is part of how you fulfill your purpose.
The third line is known as the martyr in traditional human design.
And again,
I don't
Love that name for it.
In BG5,
We refer to this as the pioneer.
I also like to think of this as
The explorer.
The third line is the most adaptive and resilient of the lines.
They learn through
Trial and error.
They really have to do in order to learn.
And they also learn through the school
Of hard knocks a little bit.
Third lines are meant to find out what doesn't work.
So they get
To the point of what does work.
And then they're meant to share their lessons,
Their learnings with
The rest of us so that we can kind of skip some of their trial and error process.
If you have a
Third line in your profile,
It is really important for you to understand that there is no such thing
As failure.
There's no such thing as making a mistake.
Whenever you do something and it doesn't
Turn out the way that you had hoped or wanted,
You're basically just learning what doesn't work
So that you can eventually find out what does work.
Very resilient,
Very adaptable,
And having a sense of humor can be really,
Really beneficial.
So when you do run into those things
That don't work,
You can just laugh about it.
Laugh it off.
You might fall on your face.
Get up
Again.
Keep trying until you uncover what does work so you can share it with the rest of us.
The fourth line in traditional human design is the opportunist.
Again,
Not a very empowering name.
We call this the influencer in BG5.
I like to think of this also as the networker.
Fourth lines,
And again,
We're now moving into the upper part of the line.
So this is more of an outward-facing
Line.
The fourth lines are natural networkers.
They are naturally influential with people that
They know.
And people with fourth lines usually really value their friendships and their
Relationships.
And many of the good things in life tend to come to them through people that they
Already know.
And depending what else they have in their design and what their other profile line is,
They're often meant to support their networks,
The people that they know,
Through what they are meant
To share with them.
So it's a really beautiful line.
They tend to be just friendly,
Loving,
Wonderful people.
I have a lot of fourth lines in my life,
And they are such a joy.
Then we come to the fifth line.
In traditional human design,
This is known as the heretic.
And in BG5,
We call this the messenger.
This line,
The fifth lines,
Which I do happen to be one,
We are natural,
Practical problem solvers for other people.
And we tend to solve problems
With out-of-the-box solutions,
Which makes this a little bit the line of the heretics.
So we might
Not provide people with what they think they want or expect.
It's usually an out-of-the-box solution.
The fifth line has a seductive quality to it,
And we'll tend to draw people in that
Want something that they think the fifth line has to offer.
There is a projection field around the
Fifth line.
So people will see that fifth line and be like,
Oh,
They have a solution that I want.
And sometimes that is true.
And if the fifth line does deliver that solution,
The fifth line is going to be really good for their reputation.
If,
However,
The fifth line does not deliver,
Their reputation is going to suffer.
And this
Is a significant part of who they are.
Fifth lines,
It's kind of a veiled quality.
I think
This is by far the most complicated of the lines,
And we will go into detail about this
On the episode on the fifth line.
And then we have the sixth line.
In traditional human design,
This is known as the role model.
In BG5,
We call this the leader.
And the sixth line,
They live their life in a three-part process.
The first 30 years or so,
They are living like
A third line and even more extremely like a third line.
They are learning through trial and error.
They are learning through the hard knocks.
They can be very experimental,
As the third line can
Also be very experimental,
As they move through life.
Around the age of 30 and going all the way
Through around the age of 50,
They go into what's called the roof phase of their life.
During this period,
They kind of step back.
They integrate what they've learned in the first 30
Years or so.
And they take more of a bird's eye view of what's going on around them.
They may watch
Other people,
Situations.
And this can be a really interesting time for the sixth line profile.
I have
A lot of sixth lines in my life.
And I remember when this,
Right around that age of 30,
And this
Is before I knew about human design,
They changed.
They seemed to be very different.
And if you have
A sixth line and you're in what's called the roof phase right now,
You might wonder like,
Oh my god,
I used to be so outgoing and I was so different.
What happened?
This is a natural part of your
Process,
Of your learning,
Of your integrating.
And usually around the age of 50,
The sixth line,
Which is extremely wise,
Steps out as the role model.
And they really model for other people
What it is to live an authentic life as themselves.
Really beautiful energy.
And if you're a sixth
Line and you're not past 50,
Don't worry.
You can still be a role model.
You can really share
Your brilliant,
Wise wisdom with other people.
People will come to you for this.
And there are
Plenty of sixth lines that are not off the roof yet that are just brilliant,
Beautiful leaders
And guides.
And remember,
It doesn't matter what your profile is.
If you might not have a sixth
Line and you're still an amazing leader,
Or you might not have,
In your profile,
You might not
Have a first line and you still love to investigate and go deep.
Each of the 26 planetary placements
Does have a line attached to it.
And it's going to influence how that part of your life plays out.
It's just your profile is really the most significant part.
And you're going to see this
Playing out in different areas of your life.
So those are the six lines of the profiles,
An overview of the profile.
We're going to go deep into each line in the next six weeks and
Also deeper into each of the profiles.
That is it for today.
Thank you so much for listening.
That's it for today's episode.
I know your time is important and I'm so grateful you chose to
Spend it with me.
It would mean the world to me if you rate this episode and include a review on
What landed for you.
You can also include any questions you have or what else you'd like to
Learn about.
And the absolute best compliment is if you share with someone you think will benefit.
It really helps me spread the message.
Love and blessings to you.
