Hello friends and welcome back. Today we are gonna go through some of the centers in the human design chart. So I'm gonna go through the defined and the undefined or open centers and talk a little bit about each, so that we can get to know all of the energies of the chart, that all the bigger components that people wanna know most about that are going to affect your understanding of your own chart.

Okay, so let's start. The head center. So the head center is the triangle at the top of the chart. It's usually yellow in color, but when I mention colors in the chart, keep in mind that every chart is populated with a different color system anymore. So what is traditional isn't always the color that you'll see in your chart, so you're just looking for the triangle at the very top of the chart.

If that is colored in in any color other than white, it means that it's defined. If it is white, it means that it's open or undefined. So let's talk about open and undefined real quick. If it is open, it means that it is completely white and there are no gates, the little numbers around the edges colored in at all.

If it's undefined, it means that the triangle or the the center will be white, and that some of those. Gates, the numbers around the edges will have color to them, which means that those are hanging gates. They're not a full channel and connected to anything else. So there is some consistent energy in the gate, but the center is undefined.

Okay, so let's take a look at the open or undefined head center. This is roughly 70% of the population

okay, so this center is concerned with inspiration. It's also a pressure center. It's where pressure comes into the chart. And it's important for somebody with this center open or undefined to really follow their inner authority. They're going to feel the pressure to feel, like they need to be inspirational or to say inspiring things or do inspiring things.

And they're going to be affected by the people around them who have defined head centers. So there'll be lots of ideas that will come through their. Heads, and it's important to kind of like a child laying on their back, watching the clouds pass through the sky, to watch those ideas kind of float by and, and consider like, is there something here for me is, you know, as a, a generator or a manifesting generator, is there something for me to respond to external to me and this idea I'm having?

Or coming up with? Or am I being invited to it if I am a projector? You know, is there something to respond to? Or am I just trying to follow all of these ideas I see floating by? It's really important to not try and take them all on because they're not all for you. You know, sometimes these ideas are just things that you are, conscious of and they come up in a conversation for you to pass along to somebody else.

If you tried to create from all of the ideas that you had every day, it would be overwhelming. So you need to learn to trust your inner authority and get to know it really well so that you know which ideas are for you, versus what are just merely interesting to watch and see where maybe they show up and they manifest in the world around you.

Somebody else may pick them up and do something with them because. They were invited or there was a, something for them to respond to that let them know that that idea was for them. So you also need to learn to not let the pressure to know overwhelm you. Sometimes you'll just have those ideas. It'll be, you know, the what, the why, the how you're gonna ask those questions.

And those questions are seeding the, universe. For potential to answer those questions for you, and now you're just waiting for an answer to show up. You know, ask those questions, get curious, but don't take action until you know that it's actually for you. Okay? So if you have a defined head center, you're roughly 30% of the population and you will have a connection to.

The divine that is filled with ideas. You will constantly have ideas in your mind. You'll be coming up with things all the time. But again, like the undefined head center, they're not all for you. Sometimes they are meant to be given as a gift to somebody else. Sometimes, you know, they are for you, but you need to wait for something external to respond to, or you need to wait for that invitation.

So it can be. Overwhelming at times to have so many ideas and want to follow them. This is what I kind of call shiny object syndrome. I have a defined head center and there can be times where I just see ideas all the time and I think, oh, this would be a great idea. Oh, that'd be a great idea. But until I've been invited to really dive into these things, I can busy myself.

I can do things on my own as a projector, but is it really a good use of my energy? Is there something here for me or am I just. Busying myself with busy work for the sake of something to do. You know, considering as a projector, I don't have a defined sacral, I need to be wise about where I put my energy.

So it's important that I wait for emotional clarity. I wait for an invitation to, do something with these ideas. And in the meantime, I tend to have a little notebook that I put ideas in. I would recommend you do the same if you are somebody with a defined head center, you can just write down these ideas and somebody will come along and ask you, Hey, do you know anything about this?

Or Do you have any ideas about this or that? And you can pull out your book and say, oh yeah, I actually had this idea the other day, and give it to them because maybe that was the person it was meant for. And they're not all gonna be for you. There's no way in this world that you could manifest all these ideas you're going to have.

So, Just be mindful that they're not all for you either, and you are a great source of inspiration. sometimes being around somebody with a defined head center can be inspiring for you. So if you are somebody with an open or undefined head center, if that's the case, you know, you may find that you have a hard time finding inspiring ideas.

and so going to a coffee shop or somewhere where there are a lot of people, You're likely to come in contact with somebody who has either a defined head center or multiple people who through their relationship connections create definition of the head center, or perhaps even in combination with your, chart configuration and you feel more inspired and you tap into that energy and do the work while you're there.

And then you go home and you know, it feels different, but you have a focus now. So you can use that intentionally if you are aware of your chart configuration and how it works for you.
