About me: Splenic Projector 2/4.


It is important to say that I was always trying to get information about myself and people around all my life. I tried Astrology, Numerology and other self awareness systems. All of them are good, but I was just receiving information and that was it. But when I got acquainted with the Human Design system, I was literally shocked and felt some kind of relief.


What differs Human Design from any other system is that you can apply the knowledge you receive about yourself, play with it and see how it works both for your body and mind. No one tells you to blindly trust it, you try it on yourself and see the results yourself.


Another important point is that it is a knowledge about energy and body. This is crucial.


What has changed in my life since I learned about Human Design and started applying the knowledge:


Improved Interaction with People

Before

I tried to help people with my knowledge but I would only receive resistance. I had no idea why. It would bring a lot of pain in my life.

Now

I learned that I am a Projector and I should first be recognized for my knowledge and then invited. Only then, when I share my knowledge with those people, I will be valued and appreciated. As a result, I will feel happy inside.


Raised Energy Level

Before

I always wanted to help everyone. I am very much people-oriented. I would end up spending tons of energy on people, listening to them and helping them when they did not even ask me to do so. This would not be valued and I would feel used.

Now

I started understanding that when people refuse and do not value my advises, it is not because my advises are bad, but because they did not ask me for that information. So, I stopped trying to help everyone.

I save a lot of energy now, sharing my knowledge only with those who really appreciate it. I understand when to contribute to people and when not.


Improved Self Worth

Before

I would not appreciate neither my knowledge, nor my time, trying to be good for everyone, helping people even when they did not ask, 'throwing' valuable expensive knowledge on everyone.

Now

Now I do not want to be sharing my knowledge with everyone. People need to deserve to get it from me. Plus, time is money. It became a game-changer for me.


Learned how to relieve stress

Before

When I would feel overwhelmed, I had no idea what to do, I would talk to someone I trust about my problems but that would give me even bigger headache.

Now

I know the importance of being on the nature to cleanse my aura from other people's energy and to recharge.

According to my Human Design chart, I should put a lot of work on my legs. Therefore, I realized why I always loved walking and cycling that much. Now I do that consciously and when I feel overwhelmed or stressed, I go for a walk or ride my bicycle.


Improved my sleep

Before

When sleeping with someone else in one room, I would always feel not rested as if I did not sleep that much at night. People that never tried sleeping in their own aura (alone in their room). The thing is that our auras continue interaction even when we are asleep, therefore people wake up not rested.

After

I enjoy every night, sleeping in my aura now. It is a completely different quality of sleep. It is hard to explain the feeling, but when you try it for at least 3-4 days in a row, you will notice a huge difference and I am sure you will love it.

Understood my Emotions

Before

I would always feel emotions of other people too much, even when they sit with the stone face. Some people would make my go crazy both in a good and bad ways with their emotions. I always thought that most of those emotions are mine and I would not understand why in a second I start feeling bad or good around some people. I was puzzles and never had stability in that area.

Now

I understand my design and that all emotions come to me from other people. What do I mean? I mean that when I am alone, I never have any strong emotions, but when I am around people, I easily get other people's emotions on me. But now I understand what is happening and I just leave the place if I do not like those emotions I feel inside, without the need to explain myself why I feel a certain way.


Realized that my Success comes not from the amount of work I do

Before

I would always try to be as much as possible and I would always drain myself. Working a lot would never give me any kind of satisfaction - on a contrary. I was never able to run that long marathon.

Now

I know that I am a Projector. Projectors are not energetic types, meaning that they have a limited amount of energy per day and their role in a society is not to work 24/7 but rather coordinate, guide other people. When it comes to work, for a Projector it is not about the quantity, but about the quality.


Started gaining more from being alone

Before

I was a social butterfly. I was trying to be a part of every discussion, every event. When I felt overwhelmed - I would try to be around people to ditract myself. At the end of the day I would become even more tired and sad.

Now

I enjoy being in my solitude. When I feel that I need to recharge - I stay alone. When I am ready - I interact with people as well, but I am never dependent on other people, which was quite an issue in the past.

I also realized why it has never been a problem for me to go anywhere on my own - I was subconsciously saving myself from the burn out.


And many more....
