Experiencing this differentiation can bring great relief and understanding in this cosmic drama of life. There was instant recognition in my body of how really different the frequencies of the lines of the hexagram are and how their distinct roles are embodied. I know in my cells how deeply transformative diving into my profile has been in my Human Design journey and how refreshing it has been in understanding those closest in my life. Learning to allow and embrace the natural dance of my second line personality has brought a new flow and joy into my life.

Profile also impacts how we differentiate as unique beings: The same Profile will be expressed quite differently through a particular Type, that is a 2/ 5 Projector experiences and manifests their profile differently from a 2/5 Generator. Bringing awareness to your unconscious helps bridge the gap of the forced marriage of your holistic Human Design supporting you in your de-conditioning process. The personality is who you think you are and what you identify with, combined with your unconscious design calculation representing your physical body. The profile calculation is based on the position of your personality sun/earth and your design sun/earth in the bodygraph. Having a basic understanding of the lines gives you an opportunity to understand your gifts and those of people around you.

Each of the six lines of the hexagram brings with it a unique and powerful frequency that expresses itself differently based on the position in the profile. It actually feels nurturing to the physical body and brings a new sense of vibrancy to your being. Relaxing into your innate costume is a breath of fresh air. I was busy trying on the 1/3 and the 5/1 outfits and learned the hard way that some costumes just simply look better on other people. How often are we trying on roles and costumes that aren’t doing us justice? Does your current costume ‘fit’? Does it feel good on your physical body? Are you glowing or restricted? It was cutting off my circulation and this restriction felt really uncomfortable. This experience offered me reflection on how much time I wasted resisting my true nature, attempting to write and share while wearing a costume that simply didn’t fit.

I witnessed myself as the fears of my openness created strategies to cope with what I am not, instead of allowing what I am. While preparing for this article I experienced a very important lesson about the profiles when it comes to the not-self strategy.
