Did you ever set with a box of little puzzle pieces, trying to figure out how the whole picture will look like? Our marriages are just like these puzzles within the bigger puzzle called humanity. We are just the little puzzle pieces in the big picture, trying to find our place in the larger picture of life.
Fitting the puzzle pieces together is not a big deal when you know how the whole picture looks like, but imagine you’ve got the puzzle without a its original box. How long would it take for you to figure out a 100 pieces puzzle? A 500 pieces puzzle? A 1000 pieces puzzle?
Figuring out where we belong is one of our major occupations. Looking for people that feel right, or work that feels interesting in the right communities is like building our own life puzzle with pieces that fit perfectly with each other. When it happens, we feel happy. When the pieces we put together fall out of place or do not fit together (maybe relationships with your spouse, or a child, or a parent) the whole puzzle looks distorted.
There are two main principles that we usually apply while creating any even most complex puzzles: the colors and the shapes. There are many different combinations of colors, but only a few shapes that we need to fit together. The combination of both shapes and colors makes it sometimes difficult for us to orient ourselves.
What if you would know that there are only 5 different shapes in your puzzle? Would it help you to know a simple strategy to help you find a perfect fit between these 5 shapes? Would it make your work feel like a play if all you needed to do was to find the right shape and then to color it and fit it into your life puzzle?
There are many different systems that teach you how to understand the each other by applying a certain template of personality traits. There are many tests that help you categorize and assemble groups of people according to character qualities, occupations, social status, races, financial accomplishments, etc. Trying to perfectly fit within some of these systems is not that easy. For example, you may find yourself correctly positioned within your occupation and failing miserably in your personal life.
Our personal Genetic Code is a complex system of connections within that dictates our connections with the puzzle of life. Magically, within this complicated maze, there are only 5 different human templates, 5 distinct shapes of the human puzzle that can give you a simple precision and a particular strategy of how you can build your personal human puzzle successfully.
Human Genetic Types
According to Human Design, here are five Genetic types within the Human Puzzle: Manifestor, Generator, Manifesting Generator, Projector and Reflector. Each of these types has a strategy for living in a flow, effortlessly. Your type’s genetic strategy reveals the most optimal and effective way for you to operate in the world without tension. It reduces the amount of struggle you may experience in your relationships, health care, or work. If you encounter resistance, feel rejected or misunderstood, following your strategy will help you understand and accept yourself. This acceptance will alleviate the pressure you experience and minimize the experience of conflict in your life. It will empower you to live your life according to your true nature, values and inner knowing.
Manifestors are the only people that are designed to act without waiting. Their energy is so influential, that doing something without letting other members of your family know what is about to happen may create a lot of anger and resentment in response to your most beautiful intention. You are a powerful Being of action and can lead an amazing, deeply fulfilling life if you learn to inform others about your actions.
Generators are an expression of pure energy! If you are a Generator, your best strategy is to wait for action, instead of initiating it. Feeling stuck is a natural part of your process, but you can reduce or eliminate your frustration by acting only when you feel a deep “yes” as a response to your life challenges. When you wait for clarity and only then act on your gut feeling, you are greatly rewarded for your efforts by love and appreciation of everyone in your family.
Manifesting Generators are considered part of the generators family. Their energy is very swift and they often skip the non-essential steps in order to get through the essential steps faster. If you are a Manifesting Generator, you may experience anger and frustration within yourself and with others for not being efficient enough. Learn the magic of balancing between acting and waiting for a clear strong gut response, so you can be a powerhouse of efficiency and an deeply appreciated member of your marriage puzzle.
Projectors are natural net-workers and managers. They have a talent to know, feel and manage the energy of others. At the same time, Projectors often feel rejected, unappreciated and bitter while sharing their most exquisite qualities and delivering their services. If you are a Projector, you have the magical chemistry that has to be recognized before you are invited into someone’s business, friendship or a life long relationship. Waiting to be acknowledged for who you are and responding only to the invitations into relationships that feel right to you will deliver many great opportunities into your life including a perfect mate and loving nurturing family life.
Reflectors are the rarest of all types. I am a reflector and I can really attest that with all my extra sensitive energy centers I can really “read” my environment and be very attuned to what is happening with each of my clients or in a crowd at the Expo where I sometimes give a talk. This “openness” can be expressed as flexibility and an easy going nature or can make you vulnerable to the influences of others. You need to learn to really surf the energy and thought fields without being attached to any one particular perspective or situation. This will help you become a true barometer of human experience and a unique mirror of authenticity. Your ability to clearly reflect the best in others without losing your authentic self will win you love and admiration.
Follow Your Truth
If you are a Manifestor, you may be beginning to remember the fire that burns deep within you – the fire that you have probably allowed so many people to dampen.
If you are a Generator or a Manifesting Generator, you may feel completely liberated to learn what you have always suspected about yourself – that you are not designed to be a doer all the time, and as you relax, things happen more smoothly.
If you are a Projector, you may feel a sense of relief that you do not have to ‘do’ anything in order to get the recognition that you know you deserve – that you have only to wait and your invitation will come.
If you are a Reflector, you may have finally understood why you feel so different from everyone around you and you may well be excited to learn more about your extraordinary Design.
Your uniqueness, your special place within the human interactions is the key to your success. Seeing your place in a bigger Human Puzzle that is specific to your Genetic Code helps you release the judgment that is often just a conditioned respond to a need to be someone you are not. Living according to your true color and shape allows you to find a perfect fit within your family, fulfill your deepest dreams and express your creativity and most unusual talents.
