Understanding Open Centers Within Human Design

When I first delved into the realms of human design, there were certain aspects that eluded my comprehension. The significance of my open centers and the true essence of authority and strategy remained enigmatic to me. Determined to unravel these mysteries, I dedicated months to immersing myself in study and analyzing the charts of diverse individuals. Initially, it felt overwhelming, but with time, a profound realization dawned upon me – the sheer magnificence of our unique creations.

As I deepened my understanding of human design and its intricacies, I discovered that it holds the key to unlocking a Chinese Medicine diagnosis. Armed with this knowledge, I embarked on an emotional journey, employing transformative techniques to guide others towards embracing their authentic selves and surmounting emotional setbacks that hindered their progress. In my relentless pursuit of clarity, I’m gratified to observe how all the pieces harmoniously align, allowing me to articulate the intricate tapestry of human design.

Human Design is a fascinating system that combines aspects of astrology, Kabbalah, and Quantum Physics to provide insights and guidance on how to live our lives in alignment with our true nature. One of the core elements of Human Design is the concept of centers, which represent different aspects of our being. There are nine centers in total, divided into open and closed portals. In this blog post, we’re going to focus on the open centers and what they mean.

The Influence of Open Centers on Decision-Making

Open centers within your body are one of the centers open to external conditioning. They represent the location of the reception of outside influences, which are closely related to the neutrino streams. These open centers influence the mind, and decision-making process, and can lead us away from our true desires and needs. Knowing about these open centers can help us make decisions based on conditioned strategies instead of on desires and needs.

The Not-Self: Recognizing Conditioning in Open Centers

These centers are known as the not-self in human design, and they represent a state where we are conditioned to think, feel, and act in a way that is not authentic to our true nature. We learn these conditioned behaviors from the outside world, which can lead to feelings of frustration, bitterness, and a lack of fulfillment. The not-self is a way to refer to this state of being, and it’s important to recognize when we are operating from a place of conditioning rather than our true selves.

The concept of the Not-Self and recognizing conditioning in open centers is an important aspect of Human Design. Open centers refer to the energy centers in the Human Design chart that are not defined or colored in, indicating a vulnerability to outside influence and conditioning.

Conditioning occurs when we adopt behaviors, beliefs, and patterns of thinking that are not aligned with our true nature. It is the result of societal expectations, cultural norms, and personal experiences that shape our behavior. The not-self is the state of being when we are operating from this conditioned mindset.

Recognizing conditioning in open centers is essential for self-awareness and living in alignment with our true selves. By observing our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, we can identify patterns that are not authentic to our individual design. This awareness allows us to reclaim our power and make decisions that align with our true nature.

It’s important to note that each open center has its own unique expression of conditioning. For example, the undefined G-center may lead to feelings of self-doubt or a search for true purpose in life. The undefined mind center can manifest as excessive thinking or shouldering oneself with expectations.

By understanding and acknowledging these patterns, we can begin the process of deconditioning and aligning with our authentic self. This involves letting go of societal expectations, releasing limiting beliefs, and embracing our unique qualities and gifts.

 

Understanding Authority and Strategy in Human Design

In Human Design, authority and strategy are vital concepts that guide decision-making and ensure effective alignment with our true nature.

Authority: Authority refers to the decision-making process within Human Design. It is based on specific centers that are defined in an individual’s chart. Each person has a unique authority center that serves as their reliable source of guidance when making decisions. By following our authority, we tap into our innate wisdom and align with our true self.

Strategy: Strategy complements authority by guiding us on how to best navigate and utilize our authority in making decisions. It ensures that we are using our authority in the most effective way possible. Strategy takes into account our unique design and provides a framework for interacting with the world around us. It helps us understand how to navigate relationships, opportunities, and challenges in a way that supports our decision-making process.

Open Centers and Decision-Making: When we have open centers in our Human Design chart, it can be more challenging to make decisions based solely on our authority. Open centers indicate areas where we are vulnerable to outside influences and conditioning. These external factors can cloud our judgment and lead us astray from our true nature.

Understanding our open centers allows us to become aware of the potential impact of external conditioning on our decision-making process. By recognizing these areas of vulnerability, we can take steps to minimize their influence and make decisions that are aligned with our true nature.

By integrating the concepts of authority, strategy, and open centers, we gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and how to make decisions that honor our authenticity. This self-awareness empowers us to navigate life with clarity, confidence, and alignment with our true nature.

Decoding Authority

It’s also essential to understand the concept of authority and strategy in Human Design. Authority refers to decision-making, and it’s based on specific centers that are defined in an individual’s chart. When we make decisions based on our authority, we are aligned with our true nature’s decision-making process. Strategy, on the other hand, makes sure that the authority is played out in the most effective way possible.

When we have open centers, it can be challenging to make decisions based on our authority. We may be more susceptible to outside influences and conditioning, which can lead us away from our true nature. Understanding our open centers can help us identify areas where we may need to be more aware of these outside influences and work to align ourselves with our true nature’s decision-making process.

Human Design is a powerful tool for understanding our true nature and living in alignment with it. Understanding open centers within our bodies is essential for recognizing areas where we may be conditioned and making decisions based on our authentic selves. By recognizing the not-self and operating from a place of authority and strategy, we can lead more fulfilling, authentic lives.
