What It’s Like Being a Projector
In my last post, I said *stop* - don’t just be a “type.” But now I’m here to tell you:
If you have any access to Human Design information - You now have to live your type.
If you have looked up your Design and known that you’re a Projector let me be clear - Being a Projector is a real radical experiment.
A few weeks ago, I went to a MeetUp about why Human Design is something they might want to bring into a company to help it with governance. Someone asked, why this? Why Human Design and not some other type of structural understanding (Spiral Dynamics, Astrology, Enneagram, etc.)?
So I went right to the root of Source: Human Design matters for the evolution of the structures of contemporary organizations Because the Projector type came about in 1776 - during the French and American revolutions, during the Birth of Democracy.
To know what does a “Projector” means, we have to unravel the meaning of the word itself. It is not just about “doing projects” or “projecting” in the psychological sense.
To be a projector means, pulling out the images from inside, and placing them on the wall of Plato’s cave in order to reveal the reality that exits beyond all illusions of homogenized reality.
And what do we spend most of our time doing in contemporary day contexts? Looking at images, projected on the wall!
If your a Projector - understand that our aura type that “projects” itself into the other through the force of the G-Center (The Spiritual Heart). That can feel like a powerful thing! When someone “pierces” into the heart of who you really are!
Now, other types also might have channels of projection, and do this too, but the Projector type has a unique role to play in that we don’t have any connection to the motor center, that means our energy is not controlled by the want of money, nor sex, nor food.
(Not that we don’t use those things, we might actually be really conditioned by them, and by noticing it, we can better fulfill our role as non-sacral types. It’s a bit transcendent - almost monk-like - in the nature of it’s design.)
.
We are the ones left in charge of the next cycle of the development and evolution of democracy.
You may hear early in the experiment of the Projector that : “We are not here to work.”
Actually, we are here to work, and I hope most of you Projectors are in a job or role where you feel Success (in terms of *feeling* success - not just some arbitrary monetary or societal value status).
.
It just won’t come in a way that was known in the past - to you, or anyone else.
A projector might have a 9-5 job, or desk job, but in that job, they shouldn’t be the person tasked with “producing the widgets” so to speak.
They will be directing, guiding, and influencing others on a subtle level. The power behind the thrown.
The one be speaking up during the meeting saying the thing that no one else is ready to say, because you can take it without worry of losing money, power, sex, or status. Seriously!
We need to remember how this culturally might impact us. Human Design is not something for collectives - it’s for the individual to try out and experiment - for at least 7 years. Why do I say this? I’m sitting here in France in a very *collective* socialist culture - it’s not easy to break out as an individual and go against the crowd. People are not raised to be that way.
In many ways, that’s great! Many basic needs are met by government, and I’m thankful for that. In another way, it sucks! To stand out as individual or to have drive and desire means leaving the collective and *base level* mentality, that can sometimes operate from a lowest common denominator, and not move into necessary *mutations* needed to advance the structure of society.
.
That’s why I’m not sure how well it would work to “implement” Human Design at a company, unless everyone at your company is willing and able to go and do the experiment, and do the work to recondition for 7 years. (But Wow. How cool would that be if a company could support that.)
.
Let’s say you can’t do that. For now, it can help you notice patterns in your regular work.
.
I worked at an elementary school with a guy from Colombia. His first day on the job he watched the young, American teachers came in with piles of worksheets. “These kids are gonna be the best and develop and grow and reach all their reading levels!” Not because we care deeply for the students as teachers. No, behind that action it is implied that we will be better than you because we work and plan and toil so much harder.”
.
His reply - ‘Why are we doing all this work and not just drinking a cafe and talking?”
.
That’s not meant to be seen as a stereotype - that’s how his culture evolved to have community and the value of ‘doing less’ in order to embrace the beauty of doing more! If we ranked things on “happiness” rather than “growth” we can see success means remaining simply happy and free.
.
I don’t know if he was a Projector type, but he very well could have been. A Projector can offer this type insight in a company, and still feel widely productive and successful.
.
If not followed correctly, burn out can be a symptom of a Projector not living correctly by design. I’ll just give you some examples of famous Projectors to get an idea: Kanye West, Freddie Mercury, Taylor Swift, Barack Obama. So only enter into projects “by invitation” in order to keep your cool.
.
The Colombian teacher and I we worked well together - despite not wanting to print out millions of worksheets and make more little generators. We really took the time to focus on the needs of the individual students. That is what the Projector is here to do.
.
And Projectors can learn best from other Projectors (who have lived out their experiment.) So let’s be together in solidarity to support each other’s unique, individual, flourishing.
.
Learn more about this superpower and use it!

Somewhere along the way Your power was taken from you. Whether it was your childhood, Whether it was a specific event, Whether it was conditioned, Whether it was daily actions, Your power was taken. Someone else started controlling your narrative. And you're not alone. It happened to me too. I gave away my power so many times - To people around me, To "friends," To strangers on the internet. I ended up living in fear, Whether it was from my ex husband, my parents, or the wom3n who doxxed me, And I decided it was time to take that power back. It was time to take back all of MY stories. My narratives. When we're in control of the narratives of our own stories, We're in control of ourselves. We have confidence. And we have self trust. So, at what point will you actually take control of YOUR narrative? 💜 . . . . #manifestingmagic #lifeofaprojector #findingyourfearless #lifeonpurpose #humandesignprojector #knowyoursoul #consciousexpansion #mindsetcoachingforwomen #consciousbusinesscoach #ownyourpower #awakenyoursoul #savybusinessowner #intuitivecoach #projectorlife #highestgood (at Annapolis, Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUvYvwipmIU/?utm_medium=tumblr

The organic rhythm of the Self
When I am in impatience, I am being in dishonor with the natural rhythm of my physical body.
I am missing out the exquisiteness of the Self transforming itself.
Slowing myself to meet with this rhythm actually causes fastness, because of the deep breaths that come through Stillness.
I judge myself because I compare myself.
I am perfect because I am in everything.
I am not the body, but I am the Tender of the Body.
