Being a projector I always forget myself when I have a close relationship. So when the breakup comes I feel liberated. I think that projectors should spend some hours of the day completely alone to get the energy of others off of them. There's nothing better than coming home after work to an empty house to relax and recharge.
Yes Seven Stars that is so true. Getting out of the energy auras and coming back to the peace confines of your own abode. Never forget that spending time with other Projectors can also be very helpful, they won't wind you up energetic the way Sacrals will and they WILL recognise you in many areas.
Totally agree. 😊 I have been living alone for some time now, outside my family's home, and more recently completely alone (no friends, no roommates etc). And sometimes I think I might not be able to live with other people again, in the sense of living at their pace, doing what they do, and having people around all the time. For example, it's difficult to me when I visit my family for many days straight to do daily life things at their pace and in the same way they do. One or two days I might be ok, but if I'm there for a long time, I just can't. One day, if I live together with someone again (family member, friend, lover etc), I will still need my own spaces and they will have to understand my timings and needs. I don't think I can live 24/7 following other people's timings and sharing some spaces again.
I live alone too. I had to move out of living together with my partner because I couldn't deal with the energy bombardment and feeling like I was inside someone elses territory. Having my own apartment does calm me but it increases financial strain and therefore I now work more than I should. Also, I can't seem to get a grip on doing chores alone. I am still together with my partner. Now I feel that doing things together is a double chore, and a waste since we each buy our own food and stock our own apartments. Now I feel like my energy is split! How do I find the right balance?
Oh yes! After 30 yrs with one man still I ask myself if he's the right person for me! If i think of seperating... I think oh wow... how wonderful is that! But i dont want to hurt him... after such long time it s like cheating... silly me!
As a projector, I sometimes find myself waiting for the UN-invitation. I have a tendency to remain steadfast regardless of how I am treated. Being disrespected is (to some degree) tolerated because I see the big picture. So a person literally has to say "I am done with you! Go away!" And oftentimes I am relieved.
@@humandesigninfo You did? That's interesting! It didn't occur to me until today. I was questioning... why it is so difficult for me to disengage with toxic people who don't respect me. I have all open centers except the ajna. Thank you, Richard! Ra speaks!
Thats not fair. I am a projector and i have had expririenced a lot of rejections in the last couple of years (due to different reasons) and it broke my heart. Now it is so painful to be rejected again.
@@BubaAnika Doesn't feel fair but that's the way it is. In the long run, it's a good thing. We should stop giving our energy away when there are signs that the relationship has reached an impasse.
The first part of the video when you mentioned how exhausted and bitter projectors can be almost made me cry bc that's totally me recently. I'm a single mom with a full-time job that feels out of alignment.Thankfully, my only child is also a projector (and fellow pisces), so at least we really get each other.
Thank you. I treat most of my day as wind down time. I do a partial chore here take a rest then a partial chore there...eventually it all gets done without pushing, forcing or stress.
This video is so valuable to me, Richard. I’m 59 years old. I’ve been a superslave since I was a child. Since my early 40’s I’ve just survived - with a severe burnout. Recently discovering Human Design has given me hope, healing/deconditioning and direction. Thank you deeply🎉
Oh how I needed to hear this..Just found out I was a Projector yesterday. At age 54 Im tuning in and this so makes sense..Ill watch the other video. Thanks again. Have good life too 💙🌈💙
Thank you Richard for remembering, being a Projector is not easy and sometimes mistakes happen due to energy, and I feel bad, but they don't understand what I saw and felt and there's no way to explain it. And yes, for a long time I thought I was lazy and it's nothing like that. Thank you for remembering bedtime, lately I've been stretching the rope and it really gets tired. And I'm 5.1 Projector and a triple split definition!
Yes Cozinha, the ache that comes from being over-tired is not sometimes to be endured. But hey, in taking more care of yourself, as a 5/1 it's also likely that you can find a smart way to guide others to do the same and then they will reward you for your practical advice. Being a Triple Split (about 11.5%) is not an easy thing to balance, but when you do you'll find you can exceed many people's understanding. I wish you well. You have your S & A it will get you where you want to be. :)
@@humandesigninfo Thank you very much for your advice. I really like the clear and calm way the HD explains. And I try, since I discovered the HD I've understood many things that happened to me, it's been 60 years to decondition. And yes, and being Triple Split and I understand now that I just need to leave the house and go to the cafe or just walk down the street to charge my batteries. Grateful - Olides
Yes Cozinha. Follow the part of you that can get you out the door when you need to realign internally. You will eventually come to recognise it and an effortlessly dance with you and The Other opens the magic of being a Triple Split.
Sleep window, wow! Yes! And I’ve always known this. I blamed it on a lack of discipline but really, I know us Projectors just love to be awake doing things to our hearts content. But we rob Peter to pay Paul and the next day is excruciatingly difficult. As if a Projector has the energy to go without sleep.. it’s not possible. I think this is such a huge issue for us. Thank you for mentioning it and I will start taking my bedtime routine more seriously.
As a 3/6 splenic projector, I forget that I don’t make my own energy and that I amplify others energies. Also, being around generators I mistake their energy as mine and overwork myself. I do too much and resist rest but when I rest so many good things come to me. I also attract people that steal my work and present it as their own.
I am a projector and I always felt I was having a very different experience from others and often didn’t know how to explain really what I was experiencing in the moment I just knew I was always so drained and needed alone time to recharge. But this makes so much sense! Thank you so much for sharing!
So grateful for this video and others! I am feasting on them as I learn to navigate community (I've moved to Osho Leela!) and take care of myself as a 2/5 Projector... I am listening with a cuppa chai and resting and soaking it all up. It's absolutely imperative that I have my own space and I am starting to tap into my own needs every few hours... so good as a recovering hard worker and people pleaser. Goddess bless you! x
You are absolutely right ☺️!. It took me a lifetime to realise it. Now I am in a new path and function according to my design. I feel much happier even if the others don't understand me.
Hello, Richard and thank you for sharing your experience and advice on Projectors. Thank you also for encouraging commentaries and discussions. I'd say Secondary Strategy for Projectors is really important. That is once formally invited, once into a relationship, in order for a Projector to be able to navigate and deal with all the conditioning that the relationship brings is to be asked. To be asked for just about anything. To be asked especially whether they are available for (doing) something, and not being told or commanded, since they may simply not have the kind or amount of energy required at the time. Also, being regularly asked, would allow them to use their Authority to make the decisions in that relationship.
@@humandesigninfo No, I meant that it is important for Projectors to insist on being asked by the Energy types who invited them in the first place. So that from that point on the Projectors can have a way of dealing with the conditioning in the relationship (since they are a non-Sacral beings and would not like to be told what to do ). In other words - not to allow to be commanded by the Energy types.
Yes Sanray, letting others know by your answer that you do not appreciate being commanded should surely get the message across. It may have to be repeated though :)
Thanks for your advice...it reeally does help. I am a projector with tonnes and tonnes of physical and mental energy; the real frustration for me is the amount of time one waits for recognition, its just not enough to afford a basic decent life...I am a management consulant and I do excellent work, but getting enough work or a job is extremely ....I guess I do do and do and do and do....timing and openess...very true
Thank you Richard for this information. I am on a journey to recognize where in my life the exhaustion started. Human Design is a great help because it mentions the characterics of each type. For me as a projector it takes away the guilt. Instead of that I can learn to take responsibility for myself and my energy levels.
I wish I had this advice--navigating relational dynamics and basic gentle self care--ironed into me instead of the mindsets and habits I picked up. Then again, would I have listened? Spot on about struggling to know when enough is enough. Even if I know with my conscious mind, something unconscious is driving the ship, and I'm still figuring out what to do about it.
I worked somewhere for 8 years and every now and then when I saw gaps and issues that was preventing us from moving forward, I always took it upon myself to tell the Boss, and I noticed it was only me seeing these things but I was always turned down. Now it seems like my 8 years was wasted but then, the skills and relationships I made still stay with me so that's something to hold on to at least. But it's really sad whenever I look back, why don't people listen? Why?!!
Thank you for your comment which resonates with me. People do not listen because listening is not a natural state, each person is immersed in their own thoughts, doubts and conflicts..... This I have discovered after years of working with people, listening is an extraordinary state, not ordinary..... Let's make peace with others then, they do what they can too....
I am shocked about the comment on a sleep window. I've always considered myself a night owl. I've said for years that its like clockwork, 10pm each night i get a second wind. I've always accepted that as just how it is. Living on a regular 12-2am bedtime, feeling like complete sh*t waking up in the morning. I've now been debating if i try to force myself into an early bedtime, or if i create a life with a later morning start time. I've been doing well sleeping 2-10am. But the world is so not set up for that time frame. Just to get my son to school i have to be up at 7am. I'm not sure what to do!
I do understand what you say... Do you have a special guide for people who are projectors with a line 3? (my profil 1/3), emotional authority, split definition, and most of my centers are defined (not the sacral of course) but ajna and crown centers defined. It's really exhausting. Thank you for your video. 😊
I’m married to a single definition generator who for the most part has absolutely no interest in any input from me whatsoever I can even feel the physical resistance of his aura when I am sharing things that are interesting to me and it’s absolutely spiritually draining. I am a 5.1 projector with all motors defined except g, sacral, root, but I have some hanging gates in my root.. I feel devastated to come to terms with this. For years I’m struggling with burn out and wondering if the marriage is at the root of it but it’s hard to reconcile that understanding the mechanics of human design is making me question my marriage and I keep wanting to figure out how to shift my own being and my own use of my energy and what I am here to offer the world..
Would you be able to make a video about how best to ask a generator/manifesting generator for help as a projector? I find that asking for help is so exhausting and I am met with so much resistance that I rather not deal with resistance and just act alone. But then I am faced with financial solitude and having to overwork to survive. It feels like a complete catch 22. Is the best life for a projector in solitude in the middle of nowhere? It seems that in order to be seen and recognized, a projector must live in an urban environment, but urban environments are the most expensive. If I am exhausted does it mean I have to get rid of all my existing relationships? Do I need invitations in order to leave situations too? I love my partner but my energy is completely depleted in every interaction. What is a projector to do in this endless loop of catch 22s?
Such good questions here. Learning as much as I can about the projector to help navigate my 17 year old son into his senior year and life beyond. It’s such a different entity from his 5 year older brother who went to the military in the Coast Guard and is a self sufficient (Manifestor) I feel so grateful to have discovered HD almost a year ago so I can be the best mom to my boys based on their HD. My 17 year old is a musician, artist, skater, surfer, snowboarder, high vibing spiritual being and I realized following in his bro’s footsteps is going completely against his HD. So that’s understood and out of the question. Can you imagine a projector in boot camp? He’d never come out the same. I often wonder if we, his generator parents are supposed to just continue to fund and fuel his endeavors into adulthood? To ensure his highest quality of life? Maybe organically something will come along that will bring him joy and income? It’s all very interesting. I feel like kids would have a better go in life if parents knew how to navigate through HD. Your part about living in an urban area but how do you fund that lifestyle if you don’t have the work motivation of a generator was brilliant. He would thrive in the so-cal beach area. He’s the most grounded near the ocean and low desert where we live 2 hours inland. Thanks for letting me piggy back on your incredible questions.
As projector I know the feeling of Frustration... I just Was finished because didnt know to come free from a situaion. I wasnt able o see this conscously ... I was unsatisfied with all.
I am ready to have my life now I spent my whole life taking people into my home and taking care of them I think almost every person I’ve ever met since I was a teenager with my own apartment lived with me including my family and then my husbands family and I waited on hand. I love to cook so of course I made everything from scratch and invited people over to eat didn’t want any help I’d stay up all night cleaning my house up and I clean my house up before they came, now at 68 years old I am ready to have my own life I have three adult children and I live alone and the rest of my life is going to be my born-again life the one where I think about me for a change but I always will be there to help if they ask me but now if I don’t feel like talking on the phone I don’t answer it that comes with my years of helping everybody and I was always for the underdog of course, and people would use me but I let them I knew what they were doing I mean I would literally give him the shirt off my back, I had to learn to stop it before I ended up homeless again because when I was homeless everybody disappeared so now I know better I finally have self-confidence too bad I didn’t know that I was beautiful when I was younger everybody said I still am beautiful, I had such low self-esteem growing up but that was because of that family I grew up in, I learn to forgive everybody and finally I’m here in a good place in my mind my heart now I need to work on getting well I tore my body up quite a bit helping too many people thank you so much
I heard of human design back in the 70s or 80s I am a baby boomer, and I always wondered why astrologers well certain ones would act like people with the zodiac sign of cancer were cry babies in week anyway the Leo king says that, I think astrology and your birth chart and human design all go together to understand more about you. Anyway people always thought I was psychic, and I am wise and always have been very wise I never have had a problem with waiting for people to come to me cause they knew who to come to for the answers people always wanted to be around me because I would always keep the peace, the strange thing is I could get along with boys better than I could girls I would keep them from fighting they would listen to what I had to say it’s the women I had trouble with and the guys told me they were jealous of me but I didn’t have very good self-esteem so I didn’t believe them. Anyway I don’t have problems with other people because I don’t give advice even though I have a lot of knowledge on health a lot and people will call me to ask me my advice when they get sick they wanna wait till they’re already real sick and I don’t wanna hear about the things I tell them they should take they just wanna know what they should get, that does irritate me, I guess life has taught me to wait because I mean my life was crazy not in a bad way it’s just I couldn’t understand why people wanted to be around me all the time asking me all these questions growing up. The ones I have problems with are my three children I have three adult children a daughter 48 a daughter 45 and a son 32, my oldest is a generator I don’t know what my other two are yet I forgot all about human design tell my daughter that lives in New York my oldest mentioned it her husband is a projector like me and She is a generator, I’m not too sure what that 3/5 means I just found you today I think I need to find out about the other personalities not just myself because I know myself pretty well I just turned 68 July 10, 2022 side had a lot of experiences already and people always tell me how intelligent I am and how wise I am but when I try to give them advice I don’t wanna hear it so it’s obvious I’m not around projectors thank you so much I’m going to study them all and I do have a problem with sleep you’re right i’ve always had trouble sleeping and I felt like it was a waste of time because I felt like I had so much to do and so much to learn, I am working on my circadian rhythm because it is way off I ended up getting covet and I’m on oxygen and I’ve been homebound for four years now it has been very difficult and then I’m a perfectionist but I have a broken right arm and I’m right handed but that doesn’t stop me I’m sure you already know this OK well thank you so much in my text messages are always long I don’t know how to do small ones I’ve been trying 👋
Dear LaDonna, may your delving into Human Design help you to find out about who is really in your life and be able to navigate better with them, in a way that is successful for you and them. :)
Damn, once again, as always, the projector is being described through rest and lack 😆 it's like the projector is a shell of a person until someone validates them and gives their life meaning. Is there a conspiracy against projectors to feel like sh*t about their energy type? 😆
Hi Tairitam, Your words, not mine. I don't regard any Projectors as "a shell of a person'" they count as some of my dearest friends and closet advisors. They sit on the High table and many are successful across the board. Why compare them to Sacral beings? We are what we are. Energy IS a premium for Projectors, that's one of the reasons they can achieve so much without doing the slog. :)
I completely agree with your comment and im hoping more and more people begin to question the role of a projector because every single piece of media describes it as a dependent spiritual secretary type who lives for others and not himself
@@hoooyea163 you described it so well. we’re not supposed to work but we’re supposed to guide others, we can’t guide until we’re invited, but if we can’t manifest or generate on our own, what are we supposed to do until then???
It seems to me that projectors probably tend to compare themselves to sacral energy people. That’s the predominant normal in our world. We shouldn’t do that. Ours is a wonderland to frolic in as we please, but we have to align ourselves with our true purpose, and then our energy reserves can match up to that purpose.
Do we know if it will be possible to calculate the Charts of people born after 2027 in the same way we calculate them now? And will their charts have differences (when compared to our charts now)?
Projectors are here to have success. I know the stage when you feel like you are just here for the generators but you are not. Your actually not here to work in the traditional sens at all not even in behave of the generators. You are here with the incredible gift of being able to see things that others can’t and to share that but to the right people at the right time that are ready to receive your insight and also appreciate you. The thing that is often most difficult is our lack of sacral energy, that we are raised as if we have it consistently and are expected to creat our life like the generators when that’s not how we have success.
Hey Richard, I love your content, and especially love what you said about Projectors spending time with other Projectors. I’m thinking about creating an in-person event where Projectors get to meet other projectors to create synergy, and a furthering of everyone’s goals. Is this something that you might be interested in participating in? At any level, it doesn’t matter. Please DM me. 🙏🏾
Thank you for sharing your wisdom, Richard. Particularly the last point about missing your window to fall asleep. It is very subtle, and I have often slipped into the second wind and experienced a rough night's sleep and waking up exhausted the next day. Working on this and improving every day.
The part of meeting resistance and spending our energy trying to "help" others when it isn't the right timing resonated a lot. And the part of needing lots of rest and a relaxed life in general. Projectors are the "lazy ones". haha We have to accept that we just can't do as much (in terms of spending energy) as Generators or Manifestors, for example. We can do a lot while we are living off their energy, but then we feel so tired afterwards when we are alone.
As a projector I have often felt that I am absorbing energy and information from others, like a sponge, and that is why I know so much about them and also the reason I feel I need alone time to get all those energies off me. I didn’t think it as a “penetration” into somebody else’s aura 🤔 so then projectors get tired because of all the focused energy on everybody else?
Projectors get tired because they don't know when enough is enough Diana. They are drawn to the Life Force like a moth to the flames and it burns them up. See, wait for the invitation to guide, get rewarded for that and leave. Check in but do not linger. Enjoy but know your limits. Spend time with your own Type. Bring the possibilities of how to have a life, but do not get that life through plodding or working too much. generally speaking part-time or consultancy work is best.
@@humandesigninfo thank you for your answer 🙏🏻 I am guessing that the fact that we live a rewarding and beautiful life attracts “invitations”. Your video gives great insight 💫
Yes, absolutely Diana. But also know that your aura will communicate your openness to the correct invitation. A smile can be an invitation if it resonates with your Inner Authority. Those who have yet to come to their own selfworth can be scared of their own beauty and sometimes those who move in such a life. Your penetrating aura is your initial contact point to the Other. Do not think it is for you to do more than just live your life.
@@humandesigninfo Yes I can definitely relate to the feeling of being ashamed of calling too much attention or "shine" too much. I'm slowly getting used to the idea that I am supposed to and that it is part of my design 😅
@@humandesigninfo I knew you were gonna say that, I’m not exactly new to human design I think it was back in the 70s or 80s that I first started learning about it in astrology not too much on tarot cards too many fake people especially on RU-vid anyway I think somehow astrology and human design go together because I’m not a typical cancerian born July 10, 1954, I never could understand the way they talked about cancers being whiny and crybabies I’m far from that believe me I’ve been through so many different things in my mind and my body and I made it out of all of them including homelessness with three children OK I’m gonna stop there I’m working on this part I could write you a whole book right now
Thank you for your wisdom, thank you for sharing much needed information; I recently discovered human design & it’s so validating and refreshing to know I am heading in the right direction. Crying tears of joy. Thank you again.
Ah Myesha, finding our way back home heals us with every step, with every correct decision, no matter how painful it may be at the time. There are stages on the way. Each stage brings a level of lightness, gratitude and depth of experience. Simply put: it gets easier, stay with your Strategy and Authority and you will emerge more and more fully.
Hi Richard! Thank you for this video. I wanted to know if you have a video on how projectors work with other projectors? I haven’t seen or read a lot on that subject
Hi and thanks for the videos. I’ve been told it’s a good thing for Projectors to sleep alone so as not to pick up on the energies of others while asleep, including animals. Is there anything to this? My wife and I are both projectors. Does that make a difference do you think? We slept apart as an experiment for a few days but i didn’t notice any difference in fact I think that on the first night I picked up on difficult energies in the spare bedroom from others who had been sleeping there. Maybe that’s not how things work but that thought came to me while in meditation. Thanks in advance.
As a projector can you feel someone’s aura if you are not physically present with them (eg a close friend or family member)? Or does that type of awareness come from a particular gate/channel?
Emotional projector 6/2 .Why i have energy to workout??? Maby because i have defind root center???? And nobody talk about projectors and working out. Like ....nobody
It's not about having energy to workout, it's the energy you consume and goes to your energetic field. I have seen some projectors talking about working out, I have my heart center defined and it helps me to do intense workout. Knowing your variables is also helpful for that.
Thank you, Richard!! I was so happy to find your newest videos (I am an old fan of your work). Happy to see you! I am 6/2 SPP and I recognized myself in many of the situations you described. I will experiment with trying to check if I am losing energy. Thank you! However I dont know how to put it but, I personally enjoy doing stuff, mostly physical because my job is using a computer. Somehow I enjoy being engaged in things and being productive... it can be just the energy coming from the generators or it might be just me living my own life? Not least, if possible can you talk about transpersonal destiny and how this affects our life as projectors? Thanks so much and good luck with everything
Yes, I do the same. People keep telling me to do something about my poor sleeping habits, but they can't relate to the amount of time it takes for me to clear myself off other people's energy.
I am Emotional Projector 6/2 with Triple Split... I truly appreciate the way that you touch upon the essence of some of the aspects of that in your videos. Human Design indeed gives me some tools to understand myself that no other system ever did. I have been diving into it since a while already and still discovering and rediscovering other depths and nuances of my complicated situation:)... seems like there is no end! Thank you for sharing, waiting for more:)
Richard, THANK YOU, after 10 of studying and working on my Type (Emotional Projector 5/1) this video of yours is definitely the cherry on the cake, ILLUMINATING.... Gorgeous Clear and Real
