Its been quite a while since I last posted in this thread and have since gone through the office that I occaisionally work in and done charts for almost everyone. The one person that has invited 2 of the projectors was one of the few I didn't get a chart done for. The fellow (president) that hired me is a generator with emotional authority, 7 defined centers, split definition.

What I find finally makes some sense now is how I have sat in on meetings with him and always been amazed at how he summarizes what has been covered and establishes a direction for subsequent work that I would never have arrived at - he has channel 64-47 defined, along with gate 24 and channel 43-23. While I also have channel 43-23 defined, I have gate 4 defined so I can see now that he has an individual abstract mind rather than my individual logical mind. Interesting similarities and interesting differences. Also his profile is 4/1 Opportunistic Investigator with incarnation cross of Juxtaposition Cross of Strategy - no wonder we see things so differently :!:

I am also drawn to the interactions between people. I nearly always look to see what kinds of composites are formed between the couples I know and the friends I know. I recently reconnected with a former classmate from Massage Therapy classes and told her about my current preoccupation with Human Design and she said that she wanted to learn more about it and we exchanged email addresses. I didn't expect anything to come of it - too many past disappointments from unrealistiic expectations - so was pleasantly surprised when she did contact me by email. Since then we have met a couple of times for tea - and the questions were endless! She is also a projector but with head-ajna 63-4 and throat-G 31-7 + 33-13 definitions - so a split definition.

She has more friends than I do - and I can see why now as nearly all of the split definition people I encounter have lots of people in their lives. And we form an 8-1 composite :D - as I did with my ex-wife and do with my current best friend.

It takes me a while to get the mental pressure to subside after being with her - I keep on having a conversation with her in my head for a couple of hours. She also referred one of her massage clients to me to find out about Human Design. Her client was very interesting indeed - only head-ajna defined through 63-4 with lots of gates pointing out of her throat center - and I talked to her for 3+ hours and again kept talking to her in my head for hours after we met!

As Ed said in the reading he gave me, people can really crank up my throat! And when they do, I wind up with all of this mental activity and am learning to do lots of walking to unwind.

I am new to Human Design (started learning about it in February) and have become somewhat obsessed about learning the mechanics. So far I have talked to about a dozen coworkers where I work about Human Design and have done charts for those people I have spoken to. I have been very surprised to find that the split is about 50-50 between projectors and generators. So far everyone has found it interesting and I have been 'invited' to do a noon hour workshop on it (after I had thought about offering to give a workshop). In talking to all of these other projectors, I found another mental projector (with head, Ajna, and Throat defined - I have only Ajna and Throat defined) with the same 4/6 profile as me. About a week after I talked to him about his design and how similar our designs are, I had the idea of getting to know him a bit better to see what his experience has been so far - he is around 25 years old.

In attempting to stick to my strategy, I was at a loss as to who makes the first invitation. I finally invited him to get together for coffee and found he was also interested in getting together to find out more about Human Design and my experiences. I am still curious as to whether or not I now need to wait for him to make a reciprocal invitation in order to develop a friendship. I suspect, based on my current basic and possibly naive understanding of relationships from the Human Design perspective, that there is not all that much grounds for friendship as together we only further define the spleen and solar plexus centers. This is in contrast to my current best friend who has solar plexus, sacral, spleen, and throat defined and (time of birth is not quite certain) possibly root center who together we define G, heart, and root centers. Also my about-to-be former wife is a projector with only root and solar plexus centers defined who together with me defined sacral, spleen, heart, and G centers with single definition. The experience of becoming friends/lovers with her was quite comical in retrospect but incredibly awkward at the time as neither of us were comfortable with initiating the relationship but at the same time there was this inexplicable (at the time) attraction.

While I haven't truly been through a 3.5 year deconditioning process of following my strategy, I was invited to work where I currently work and the only friend I spend significant amounts of time with invited me to be friends after we worked at the same company a several years ago. Until last year there were no other people that I spent any significant amount of time with. Then I was assigned an office mate and unknowingly became subject to his definition and he to mine. By around April, I went on a buying spree and while I acknowledged that this behaviour was uncharacteristic compared to what my sister and my psychologist had known before, my psychologist acknowledged that I may actually be allowing my true self to emerge. Now that I have a new office mate and have experienced another person's definition in close quarters for a couple of months and have begun learning about Human Design, I can start to make sense of the experiences I have had over the past year or so. While my former office mate was also a projector but with Throat, Heart, Spleen, and G defined, my current office mate has everything but root defined. I do not spend any time in my office as a result now - I am sensitive to her emotional solar plexus and dislike the effects that I experience when I am around her.

As an interesting side note, as far as I know, at least 3 other projectors besides myself were invited to work where I currently work.

Thanks for the outlet and any comments.

Hi proyector guest,
My experience is that I must wait for everything. HD help my to understand that is natural and every day is a little step to accept, relax, and enjoy while I ‘m waiting.

I agree with you about the liberation that we feel when we know that we are 20% of the population, very different from 70% of generators. We feel statistically legitimated to relax, wait and see. :-)

:wink: Nice to meet you Joanne

I am emotional projector, and throughout my life I have undergone the impotence and the frustration to want and not to be able, to try and not to reach, to look for and not to find, with the amount of effort and energy wasted associated. My better memories are what it was so easy, that did not cost anything to me, because they invited to me. Without a doubt, it is worth the trouble to wait for the invitation. But so that delay not is heavy load, so that you forget that you are waiting for, you must do something, (that is not to persecute the invitation or that tries to shorten the time of delay), something that you like, to spend the short while, "to live" for example, to walk, to eat, to work, to make love, to study…

Soy proyector, y durante todo mi vida he sufrido la impotencia y la frustración de querer y no poder, avancar y no alcanzar, buscar y no encontrar, con la cantidad de esfuerzo y desgate asociado. Mis mejores recuerdos son de aquello que resultó tan fácil, que no me costó nada, porque me invitaron. Sin duda, merece la pena esperar la invitación. Pero para que la espera no sea una pesada carga, para que te olvides de que estás esperando tienes que hacer algo, (que no sea perseguir la invitación o que intente acortar el tiempo de espera), algo que te guste, para pasar el rato, "vivir" por ejemplo, pasear, comer, trabajar, hacer el amor, estudiar...
