Gate

The Gates in a Human Design bodygraph chart are represented by the numbers (1 – 64) that are located in the Energy Centers. These are the gifts, talents, motivations, energetics or drives that are consistently available to us. If a gate is not activated or colored, it doesn’t mean that person never has access to that energy. It just means that this gift is not a reliable or constant energy in their life. There are a total 64 Gates in a bodygraph chart and each gate has a theme that is related to the 64 I Ching hexagrams.

Gene Keys

A system developed by Richard Rudd that articulates the high, low and enlightened frequencies of each of the 64 gates in the hexagram or Human Design.

Generator

One of 5 Energy Types in the Human Design system. Generators are the most common energy type. They are designed to move through life by following the things in life that “light them up” and spark their sacral energy center.

Hanging Gate

An activated gate that is alone in a channel and is located in either a defined (colored) or undefined (white) energy center. This gate is open to receiving energy from the corresponding gate via a transit or the aura of another person.

Hexagram

The hexagram consists of 6 lines from the I Ching divination system. The 6 lines are represented by a series of either broken or unbroken lines. Broken lines represent “yin” energy. Unbroken lines present “yang” energy”. The 64 gates in Human Design are derived from the 64 I Ching hexagrams.

Human Design

A system created by Ra Uru Hu in 1987 that draws from Astrology, the I Ching, the Chakra System and the Kabbalah Tree of Life. The Human Design system creates a map (bodygraph chart) that reveals an individual’s unique energetic blueprint. This system inspires us to expand our awareness of the self and shows us how to listen to our own inner guidance.

I-Ching

The I-Ching is one of the oldest written systems and it is often referred to as the “Oracle”. The “I-Ching” means “the Book of Changes” and it is composed of 64 hexagrams that are used for divination. These hexagrams provide guidance, advice, clarity and context. The 64 hexagrams are incorporated into the Human Design system as the 64 gates.

Incarnation Cross

The Incarnation Cross is your life theme and it is made up of the 4 most prominent gates in your bodygraph chart. This life theme is something that will slowly emerge over time as you live in alignment with your unique nature and it builds up into a full expression of your potential. The Incarnation Cross usually comes into play around your astrological “mid-life crisis” after you have planted a solid foundation and have a clear direction in life.

Individual Centering Circuit

This is a sub-circuit of the “Individual Knowing” circuit and the energy of this circuit is about being grounded within one’s own core individuality. It is NOT about “knowing” individuality, it is about BEING individual.

Individual Knowing Circuit

This circuit embodies the energy of evolutionarily new, unique and mutative qualities. Revolutionary thoughts, objectives and innovations are brought into the world through these gates and channels. Each gate within this circuit are focused on the unique empowerment of the individual.
