The Human Design Atlas

Human Design, One Entry At A Time

The whole system in one place. Start with the Foundations, which explain what Human Design is, the BodyGraph and the wheel it is calculated from, and the traditions it draws on. Then every Type, Strategy, Signature, Authority, Profile, Center, Line, Channel, Circuit, Gate, Incarnation Cross, Planet and Variable, one page each. Each page shows where its subject sits in the BodyGraph and links to everything it is mechanically connected to, so you can start anywhere and follow the thread.

24 entries

Foundations

What the system is, where it comes from and what its words mean.

9 entries

Centers

The nine hubs of the BodyGraph and what each one means defined, undefined or open.

36 entries

Channels

The 36 connections between gates that define your centers and give you consistent energy.

7 entries

Circuits

How the 36 channels group into six circuits and three families, and what your mix says about how you connect.

64 entries

Gates

The 64 energies of the BodyGraph, each with its center, its channels and its six lines.

123456

6 entries

Lines

The six roles of the hexagram that combine into every Profile.

13 entries

Planets

The thirteen bodies in your activation columns, and what each one does to the gate it sits in.

48 entries

Variables

The four arrows on your chart, decoded value by value.

A Way In

Start With Your Own Chart

Human Design is easiest to learn from the inside. Your chart names your Type, Strategy, Authority, Profile and Incarnation Cross, and colours in your centers, channels and gates. Every one of those is a page here. Read the ones you carry first, then follow the links outward to the people you live and work with.

If you already know a number, search for it. Typing 34 takes you to Gate 34 and the channels it forms; typing a center or a cross does the same. Nothing lives only behind the search box, so browsing works just as well.
