HUMAN DESIGN SYSTEM How Your Human Design Affects Your Health Part 1 By Chetan Parkyn Good health is not a guarantee for us, even though the human is an incredibly resilient and versatile specie. Our bodies can survive and prosper in all kinds of diverse environments, eat and digest an enormous spectrum of foods and liquids and yet, we can still be prone to disease. The implication of the word 'dis-ease' is that we are made to feel uncomfortable within our body when we allow certain anomalies to penetrate its working mechanism. Many older people, when asked what are the greatest qualities of life, will always say that health is the most important thing. Guarding and nourishing our health is of primary importance. This article is not written from a medical point of view, either from a Western perspective, which is a medical system that has evolved in large part from a military presence on battlefields, (the Surgeon General is still the top medical official in the USA), nor from an Eastern perspective, which has evolved from a meditative, empathic and more abstract viewpoint. It is written from a perspective of viewing the human being from Human Design. This is the first of a three-part article on Health in the New Millennium. Defined and Undefined In Human Design terms, there is an enormous difference between a Center that is defined and a Center that is undefined. When a Center is defined, it means that the function relating to that Center is turned on, reliable, and consistently available at all times. When a Center is undefined, it means that the function relating to that Center is inconsistent; it is NOT always available. The undefined Center only becomes

activated when another person (who has that Center defined in their own Design) comes into the presence of the person with the undefined Center, or when a transiting planet completes a definition. When this happens, the undefined center is temporarily defined.

As we look into a body graph, we can instantly see what part of the chart is defined, and what part is undefined. This is how we see which of the person's energetics is running consistently, and what part of the being is conditioned by the environment. All of us are subjected to "healthy" and "unhealthy" environments and we each respond to those environments according to our own personal makeup. When we have an undefined center in our Design, we are prone to taking on and absorbing the energies relating to that center. Usually this happens through the presence of other people in our lives who have those centers defined in their own Design. When we are in an environment that is "unhealthy" we need to be aware of the potentially "diseasing" effect of those around us. This is not to suggest that we should go through our lives keeping everyone at arm's length, but rather, it is to make clear that each of us has to take responsibility for our own being, our own wholeness. For instance, if we have undefined Mental Centers in our Human Design, there is absolutely no point in trying to rationalize our way through life, because we are surely processing other people's thoughts. The Heart

The human heart is an amazing organ. It provides our very pulse, and keeps the river of life flowing through us. Thus, it is one of the saddest statements in the world that, according to medical statistics, heart disease ranks highest on the list of diseases that affect humans. It seems a tragedy that this part of us should be so prone to disease. In Human Design, the Heart Center is the place within us from which we derive our willpower; it is the place within our makeup from which we draw the willingness to proceed and select what we 'want' to do within our lives. The Heart by Design If one looks at the Heart Center in the Human Design Body graph, it is apparent that there are only four channels that make an energetic connection to it.

There is the 40-37, the Community, Family channel which connects to the Emotional, Solar Plexus Center. Next, there is the 44-26, the Transmitter Channel, which connects to the Splenic, Immune Center. The third channel is the 51-25, the Initiation Channel which connects into the Self or the Liver Center. The last one is the 21-45, The Money Channel, which connects to the Throat or the Thyroid Center. Out of 36 potential channels in the Human Design Energetic makeup, only four give access to the Heart Center, our place of Willpower. If one considers this from a statistical point of view, there is a low possibility of anyone having a definition into their Heart Center. Most people in the world do not have a defined Heart Center. Most people do not have access consistently to their own source of willpower. The results of this fact are plain:

If you have a defined Heart Center, you can access your willpower, and, hopefully, apply it successfully within the context of the rest of your Design. I say 'hopefully,' because it is vital to consider your Type, your consistent means of accessing the world around you, and your Authority, your personal decision-making process, which we have discussed in previous articles. If you have an undefined Heart Center, you cannot consistently apply willpower into your world, and if you attempt to do so, you will doubtless end up straining your heart and the mechanisms related to it. With an undefined Heart Center, committing to something or someone becomes entirely relative to your environment. Your life presence here is one in which you do not have to prove anything to anyone, neither to yourself, to your parents, or your boss, or your family. There IS nothing to prove to anyone. I always tease people with an undefined Heart Center, telling them that if they should ever, for any apparent reason, feel the urge to go out and prove something, they would do far better to just find some Bach Flower remedies or homeopathic remedies that reduce their sense of willfulness; or make a cup of tea, have a good laugh and sit down... for they will immediately feel much better! The Solar Plexus, Emotional Center Emotions rule the world. Whoever gets the most upset, has the most power, since the rest of us will immediately try anything to calm them down, knowing that if we don't do something to defuse the situation, they will either blow a fuse or else injure someone, either physically or psychically. Babies learn very early on that if they require something, they merely have to throw a tantrum to get quick results. It is inevitable that we will all suffer some degree of emotional bruising during our lifetime; that is just a normal part of being human. The Emotional, Solar Plexus Center registers the highs and lows of life. It is where we get to experience the pleasures and disasters of life through food, relationships, sex and all kinds of thrills and spills. Life would be dull indeed without these

experiences, but we know that, in the end, none of these experiences bring lasting satisfaction, and yet, we still tend to pursue them! These days, we humans seem to be getting crazier than ever in our thirst to witness and indulge in extreme experiences.

A defined Emotional Center generates a wave pattern, touching between the highs and lows of life: the highs are the hopes, expectations and delights, and the lows are the pains, disasters and depressions. If you go up, you also go down. If you are 'attached' to going up, inevitably you are 'attached' to going down. If you go up without any attachment and expectation, you can be unattached on the downturn. This gives you the possibility of finding a place of clarity in your emotions, and emotional clarity opens a gateway to Spirit. An undefined Emotional Center picks up and amplifies the waves generated by people with defined Emotional Centers. If the emotional atmosphere created by people with defined Emotional Centers is high, up and excited, the person with an undefined Emotional Center will be ecstatic. However, when the emotional atmosphere falls, the person with the undefined Emotional Center crashes emotionally. If you have an undefined Emotional Center, it is essential to comprehend something: Yes, you can express emotions, but, no, you cannot necessarily stabilize and control them. If you have a defined Emotional Center, it is essential for you to understand that you are continually generating emotional waves, setting the tone of the emotional atmosphere around you. That is your nature. So, if you are in a good mood, you will see that everyone around you is in a good mood, but if you are feeling grumpy and upset, you will tend to emanate that wave of emotion around you. Sometimes you are excellent company to be around, and other times, you are not such good company. In the latter case, it does not imply that you need to go around shaking a little bell, calling out: "Unclean!" as lepers did in the dark ages. But it does imply that sometimes it is far healthier for everyone, and especially for you, if you take some space to yourself until the mood shifts, the wave rises and you feel like "joining in" again. People with defined Emotional Centers are here to process the highs and lows of life. This process requires time for reflection, and when given that time, it yields

the most profound view of life as a human. Clarity from an emotional perspective can lead to profound wisdom. However you live your life, if you try to ignore your emotions, you will end up getting sick. Some of the diseases related to the emotional center include: breathing and lung problems, stomach upsets, eating and digestive disorders, diabetes, bladder and sexual problems. Sooner rather than later, everyone will see how essential it is to relate intelligently to our wonderful emotional nature as humans. It is through our touch to the emotions that we can access Spirit. If we shut down our emotions or allow the center of our emotions to become diseased, we can become immune to Spirit and lose access to our highest potentials. The Root Center The Root Center in Human Design relates specifically to the Adrenal glands, which, among other things, supply the pressure that gets us into motion to provide for ourselves in this world. The adrenals connect us particularly to the deep underlying fear of whether we are going to "make it" in life or not. Does Existence remember us, or do we have to make a particular effort to be included in the scheme of things? The Root Center is the center of Stress! In the 21st century, particularly in America, and perhaps most places, stress seems to thrive! So, understanding the place of stress in the Human Design chart can be a valuable study.

If you have a defined Root Center, it implies that you are someone who is not only equipped to handle stress but who also can promote stress in people who have their Root Center undefined! This is neither a good nor a bad thing, because all of us from time to time need to access adrenaline energy, otherwise nothing would ever get started! It is just that a defined Root Center exerts the impetus for something to get launched, and if you have an undefined Root Center, you may well get set into motion unwittingly, living on someone else's deadline! I always tease people with an undefined Root Center, telling them that they are 'born procrastinators!' Within their own makeup they do not have consistent pressure to get things started and they need to be particularly careful about what deadlines they agree to meet. Committing to unrealistic deadlines causes uncalled-for stress that the person with an undefined Root Center is not equipped to handle.

Depending on which channel defines the Root Center, there will be a particular drive, either through the Emotional Center, where the emotions get stirred up, or through the Spleen Center, where physical energy is exerted, or through the Sacral, Sex Center, where the Life Force Energy is engaged. It is through the Sacral Center connections (the three channels called Format Channels in Design) that the shape of whatever we set in motion in our life is determined. These Format Channels determine the outcome of everything in our lives, from source. The way in which disease takes its course in our bodies is determined from the way in which it starts out in the Format Channels. All of us know perfectly well that if we succumb to stress we will most likely soon find ourselves getting sick! Your Design reading can really help An awareness of your Design shows you continuously where in your makeup you are vulnerable to disease and how to make simple adjustments in your life to avoid, counter and treat any disease. Of one thing every healer is assured and most agree: humor is the best medicine, thus, it is very important to not take oneself too seriously! Old Mrs. Grumblebum goes every day to visit her doctor. The doctor, a very patient man, humors her, listens quietly and sometimes gives her medicines. One day, Mrs. Grumblebum doesn't show up. The next day, the doctor asks, "Where were you yesterday? I missed you!" I'll tell you the truth," replies Mrs. Grumblebum, "I was sick!" Sickness is the body's way of cleansing. It is a natural process. Our great meditation in this life is to make sure that we catch the "right" sicknesses that cleanse our body in a "right" way. A comprehension of your Human Design shows you immediately where you are consistent in all aspects of your life and where you are potentially vulnerable and therefore susceptible to taking on things that can cause you dis-ease.

HUMAN DESIGN SYSTEM How Your Human Design Affects Your

Health Part 2 By Chetan Parkyn We have evolved within the human body over thousands of years, adjusting and shaping our bodies and their functions for countless and unknown experiences. Disease and illnesses have had their sway over the course of history, and always, to date, the human body has adapted. It is said in a study in Europe, that the descendants of those who recovered from Bubonic Plague in the Middle Ages have a greater immunity to the depleting disease of AIDS. No one in the Western world will deny that in these days we are being exposed to greater and greater changes in our lives. Our bodies and all aspects thereof are being exposed to greater levels of stress, pollution, ozone depletion, and genetically modified foods and medicines. Can we adapt successfully, and who will survive the coming ages? In this article, we examine the body's function and response from the viewpoint of Human Design in three areas: The Sacral Center (The Sex Center), The Spleen (The immune system), and the Self Center (The Liver). We also look at the Design of legendary Jimi Hendrix to see some of the correlations between Design and health.

The Sacral Powerhouse The Sacral Center gives us access to Life Force energy. It provides us with the power to fertilize, impregnate, and nurture others and ourselves, and also to forge our way through life. It is the center in Design we call the "Generator" Center because of its apparently ceaseless supply of living energy. People who have this center defined in

their chart can "keep on keeping on" when the rest of us tire. They can appear to be one-paced and do not appreciate, on any level, being interrupted while "in the middle of something." Many of the world's great athletes who involve themselves in "repetitive movements" in their sport, for example tennis players, have a defined Sacral Center.

In general, the great thing that people with defined Sacral Centers must establish for themselves is to what activities and to which people, they are going to give their "Life Force" energy. The recognition comes through responding from their Sacral Center, allowing the affirmation of Life Force energy to present its own wisdom in relation to any commitments, rather than, for example, trying to rationalize a situation from the mind, or feel forced through the pressures of stress to commit. In physical terms, if the access to or supply of Life Force energy is interrupted or misdirected there can be a breakdown in that person's health and well-being, leading to exhaustion and depletion. The Spleen, "Feel-good" Center The Spleen Center relates to our Immune System and is always looking out for our physical health and well-being. It embodies the senses of Taste, Smell and Intuition, senses that, moment by moment, guide us into situations that are healthy for us, and away from situations which are hazardous for us. There are many expressions in language which emphasize the Spleen's capacity to engage with our environment and alert us to our circumstances: "It leaves a strange taste!" "I smell a rat!" "Something tells me.....!" People with a defined Spleen Center in their Design usually feel good about themselves and often have the capacity to make everyone else feel good about themselves as well.

However, there are limits for people with defined Spleen Centers. If the person with a defined Spleen Center takes on too much in their life, disregarding their Intuition, taste or Instinct, their Spleen Center may become overloaded and fail, causing them to become very, very sick. People with undefined Spleen Centers characteristically get sick often as children, but, provided they rest and recover completely from an illness, their immune system adjusts. As the person gets older, they become stronger and stronger in health. Typically, in times of sickness, a defined Spleen Center can process drugs, particularly Allopathic Chemical remedies, whereas, undefined Spleens cannot consistently process drugs. Undefined Spleen Centers, being highly sensitive, can adjust and heal through lightweight dosages of lightweight medicines, for example, homeopathic and "gentle" herbal remedies. The Self, Liver Center In Human Design, the Self Center gives us access to our sense of direction, purpose, and love in life. The eight gates which make up the Self Center in the body graph connect into the twelve signs of the zodiac and, when the sun passes through them, align with the eight seasonal high points of the year, including the solstices, equinoxes and other festivals marking the middles of the seasons.

People who have defined Self Centers typically know where they are going and how they fit into the scheme of events in their life, more obviously so than those with undefined Self Centers. Defined Self Centers are consistently connected into the ways of the world. They appear to routinely fulfill a sense of purpose, either through their life direction or through their sense of belonging and love connections with others. People with undefined Self Centers constantly push the boundaries of life as though they have no limits at all. It appears sometimes that there is no consistency in what they do, where they go, or with whom they are affiliated. When someone with an undefined Self Center brings all their friends together, those friends will be really puzzled in trying to see common ground among everyone present. There can be an experience for someone with an undefined Self Center that occasionally they are "lost in space," and disconnected from the run of life around them. The most important key for them is to connect with the "right" people; people who recognize and appreciate them, so that they connect into a healthy personal direction in life. Some examples of people with defined and undefined Self Centers are Sir Winston Churchill and Amelia Earhart.

Since the Self Center is associated with the Liver, the influence of alcohol can blur the sense of direction and the appropriateness of relationships. Typically, people with defined Self Centers can process alcohol easier than those with undefined Self Centers. The Design of Jimi Hendrix

Jimi was born on November 7, 1942 in Seattle, Washington. In his Design chart he has a defined Throat (Expression) Center connected to a defined Self (Liver) Center. He has a defined Sacral (Sex, Life Force) Center connected to a defined Emotional (Solar Plexus) Center connected to a defined Root (Stress) Center. Defined Centers are continuously and consistently available energetically. He also has an undefined Spleen (Immune) Center and an Undefined Ajna (Mental awareness) Center. Undefined Centers turn on and off, energetically, depending on who else is present in the aura. Jimi has open Heart (Willpower) and Crown (Inspirational) Centers. Open centers have no gates colored in on them in the Design. With an open center in a design, the person is not necessarily attuned to the nature of that center in the same way as if they had some gates colored in. Thus, Jimi, with his open Willpower Center, can be oblivious to the competitive nature of the world, or can, from time to time, be completely overwhelmed and consumed by it. Also, with an open Crown Center, he can be a pure conduit for inspiration, or he can be beset by doubts, confusions and mental pressures, which are a part of other people's realities and which he cannot easily assimilate into his own life. By Design, Jimi expresses himself as a natural leader with an incredible power of direction in his voice. He relates in such an intensely intimate way that he cannot be ignored by anyone. He is also deeply provocative, spirited, moody, romantic, melancholic and potentially depressive. He is an Emotional Generator, which means he is designed to respond to life from a place of being clear, emotionally. Rushing into things is always a source of problems and frustrations for him. Open hearted, it is always hard for Jimi to know what it is he wants until he is involved in it, and he is not designed in any way to be competitive. Open-minded, he has the capacity for far reaching thoughts and to be inspired by things that might appear ordinary and everyday to others, until Jimi brings his own particularly powerful expression to them. With an undefined Spleen Center, Jimi does not always necessarily feel good about himself. With his extensive (natural) swings in mood, to the highest and lowest extremes through his adrenalized and emotional nature, he easily gets drawn towards mood-enhancing drugs, which his undefined Spleen has great difficulty in processing.

Jimi's very survival depends on his being able to decline commitments to people and things about which he does not have emotional clarity. His downfall comes through mixing alcohol (which his defined Self/Liver Center can handle) with drugs (which his undefined Spleen Center cannot handle) in an attempt to align his moods to the world around him. Jimi might still be with us today if he had found the clarity to align his world to his moods.

HUMAN DESIGN SYSTEM How Your Human Design Affects Your Health Part 3 By Chetan Parkyn Life is not a success story, nor is it a tragedy story, either. It is a journey during which there are many instances of potential delight and many of seeming calamity. How we view our life depends entirely on our point of view and our perspective. Every discussion has at least two outlooks, every debate at least two sides. At this time in our evolution we have arrived at a point in the post-information age where we can no longer hold onto and assimilate all the facts and information available to us. We are blinded by comparisons, countless details, factoids and halftruths until we can barely function outside of a state of overwhelming mental exhaustion. The indication is that we are over-using our minds in a vain attempt to make the right decisions for ourselves in our lives. Mind was never designed as a place for decision making -how can you ever find clarity in a device which is split neatly into two halves, each containing its own perfect viewpoint? In this article, we examine the mind, and ways in which we express it in the light of Human Design, and see how healthy it is for us to say and do the things we think we think.

In closing, we shall examine the Design of Fredrich Nietzsche, a great philosopher and thinker, whose works, adopted by the German Nazi party, affected the world for all time. The Crown Center, our source of questioning In Design terms, the Crown Center is our place of inspiration. It provides a pressure for us to attempt to assimilate information which is apparently sourced outside of ourselves into explanations which we can absorb and equate within us. The Crown Center can be in a state of constant puzzlement, puzzling through what it is that we perceive to be going on here in life. It is always goading us to make sense, to understand and "know" what life is. Within the late Douglas Adams' stories related to the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, there is a sequence of references in which all the computing powers of the Universe are programmed and focused to work out the answer to the "Meaning of Life." After thousands upon thousands of years of untold gazillions of computer calculations, the answer arrives: 42. Of course, the answer is 42, as much as it might be anything else! In his days of enlightenment and teaching, a story is told of Gautama the Buddha, who was almost constantly surrounded by his many followers, but who, one day, was walking through a forest accompanied only by his cousin, Ananda. Ananda realizes his moment of having the great mystic to himself, and asks the Buddha if he has told them everything that can be told, or is he, perhaps, holding out on something? In response, Buddha reached down and picked up a handful of leaves. Waving the leaves in front of Ananda, Buddha indicated that these leaves represent whatever it is that can be told; that he, the Buddha, had told through his sutras and stories that which the human mind could grasp. And then he waves his hands, indicating the forest floor. "And do you see all the other leaves here in the forest?" Asks Buddha. "This represents what cannot be told because it is quite beyond the grasp of the human mind." The Crown Center and its connections to solutions at the Ajna Center Unlike any of the other centers in the Human Design chart, the Crown Center, (the Pineal Gland), the in-spiration center, connects only to one other center, the Ajna Center, (the Pituitary Glands) the place of cognition, mental awareness and analysis. The Crown Center has only three gates within it which interpret the pressure to explain our presence here in living form. These gates operate through the dimensions of doubts, confusions and an inner sense of balance.

Doubts relate almost exclusively to our projecting into the future, confusions relate to our connections with the past, and "balance" or "imbalance" relates to our perception of knowing our place in the scheme of life. If any one of these gates becomes overly energized, it is easy for the person to get distracted and unbalanced in their life, trying to resolve or equate something which cannot be explained. Many of us walk around with a dense furrow on our brow because we think we think we can think our way through life. In essence, what we are indicating with these furrows is that we are over-energizing our doubt that Existence still remembers us, and has a perfect plan for us... if only we can stop thinking about our concerns long enough to regain our access to the plan. In a Design chart, if the Crown Center is colored in yellow, it is defined, implying that there is always a pressure available to be thinking. If the Crown Center is colored in white, it implies that the pressure to think only happens when someone else energizes that pressure because they themselves have the Crown Center defined in their own Design.

It can be seen in the Designs of Pablo Picasso and Walt Disney, two of the great recognized creative geniuses of the twentieth century, that they both have completely different ways of accessing their creativity. The common ground for their expression is not the Crown Center and the place of inspiration, but rather, their defined Self Centers, their personal sense of "connectedness" in life and the appreciation given to them, from the world around the, for who they are and what they relate. The Ajna Center, the "solution" center Has it ever been said that women generally don't look for solutions, but rather, would like an opportunity to express their concerns? Somehow they know that life itself is a mystery and not a problem, and any good mystery is only really good when even its outcome baffles us. I am not deriding the power of the mind and the incredible "solutions" for which it must, in part, take credit, but I am saying it is a greatly over-rated bio-computer. Instead of the mind being allowed to operate on auto-pilot, running the many functions which our lives require of it, it has become the focal point of our attentions, the boss. It has taken over. In the past 10 years, most people in the world have been exposed to the computer, which in simple terms is a machine reflecting our mind, the binary flip-flop process between left hemisphere and right hemisphere. And most of us have a certain dread of this apparatus which is quietly overtaking our lives, whether it be through the 2.4 million surveillance cameras located throughout the UK, many of which can scan any person walking down the street and, through particular software, identify them, or the computerized box which sits under our desk, essential, expensive and apparently capable of wonders, but remaining unbelievably frustrating in its stupidity and inability to please us. Mind never satisfies. The Ajna Center operates through the senses of sight through light, and inner knowing, coming through the dimension of sound. It attunes from the Pituitary glands, the Doors of Perception, through the eyes and the inner ear to the inspirations, which enter through the Pineal gland. It rationalizes, cogitates, ruminates and projects its findings to the Throat Center where we exchange our perceptions with those around us through speech. Constantly the Ajna is trying to get things to "fit" within the realm of what it perceives around it, because when things seem to "fit," there is a good chance someone else will be able to relate to it, somehow. The collective enjoys having things fit. Here inn America, for instance, we see the good sense in everyone driving on the right, an apparently perfect twodimensional solution to a three-dimensional situation. Does having a defined (continuously active ) Ajna Center imply one is clever? Well, in some ways it is possible, but being really clever involves being able to master your mind and relegate it again to the information-handling device it so perfectly is. If you have an undefined mind, it gives you the possibility of a lifetime in which you can watch the machinations of the mind.

The Throat Center, Expression In Design, the Throat Center relates to the Thyroid and Parathyroid glands, which control the making of thyroid hormones, which in turn regulate the body's metabolism. In the first few days after conception, the Throat Center is the energetic foundation for the fetus, and ultimately affects the formation and operation of all the other centers, throughout the body's lifetime. The Throat Center is our place of articulation, expression and manifestation. It is the most complex of all the centers in the body graph and, particularly in these days, it handles intense pressures. We use it to describe our world; to explain who we are, what we do, how we live and, beyond that, it is the center from which we create in the world through manifestation.

There are at least 11 different voices in the Throat Center which we use to express ourselves; our great challenge in life is to identify the voices which most closely represent our truth and use them in a right way. Having one of the voice gates activated in a Design gives you access to that particular form of expression, but in order to use that voice on your terms, you need to wait your turn, until you get your cue. For instance, if you are a Generator in Design, you can only speak or engage your energy in response. A Projector needs to wait for invitation. Using the voice, or attempting to manifest in any circumstances, ultimately leads to the thyroid gland being strained energetically, which in turn leads to the whole metabolism being affected.

One has to realize that the age old adage of "putting your money where your mouth is," or "walking your talk," may not be possible for many people in terms of their Design. To engage in something just because you hear yourself talking about it might not be in your best interests at all. Certain words are bandied about which have a very deleterious effect on our lives: words like, "should," "could," "would," "must," "might," constrain us into actions which have nothing to do with our makeup. The Design of Fredrich Nietzsche, one of the world's great thinkers

In his Design, Fredrich Nietzsche is an Emotional Manfestor with a Manifesting Generator aspect and a defined mind. He is a feeling, thinking, doing person, whose whole life journey relates to providing a description for everything that happens here on earth. He observes the processes of growth and change and relates them to what he sees as universal underlying principles at work in our Universe.

He is a feeling man with a great "lust for life" that drives him into a myriad of experiences with all kinds of people who encourage his deeply held feelings for dramatic change. He has a push within him to take on any project which appears interesting to him, sometimes completing things in a hurry and dispelling his companions so that he can get started with the next project before he has established a sense of inner, emotional clarity about that next project. He is obsessed with correction, particularly with correcting what he sees as illogical in his world and especially within himself. He allows his logical mind, which is defined unconsciously to his Throat Center - meaning that he never knows what he is going to think or say next - to rule his world, despite the fact that his mind largely disagrees with his feelings and his way of doing things. In other words, with an undefined Self Center, Fredrich never clearly knows who he is at any given moment in time, allowing his unconscious mind to take over and juggle with many identities. An undefined Heart Center makes him prone to seeking companionship with whoever appears supportive. There is no question that Nietzsche brings into form some amazing and profound thoughts, and thought-provoking insights. His undoing is in the placement of the planet Uranus in the 25 gate, where he continually gives way from his deeper clarity in what is right for him, and passes off his startling thoughts for an expression of truth. In conclusion The mind is an incredible tool, but it is just a part of our being, having the ability to assimilate and process many sources of information for us. The Throat has been our source of communication and manifesting, but if ever there was a time to be clear in these areas of our lives, that time is now. Communication has become a burden to the psyche with hundreds of TV channels of "talking heads" talking endless nonsense. Manifesting has brought about a non-stop-shop-til-you-drop culture. Our Spirit calls out for quality in life and this can only be found when we find ourself, complete and perfect and accepted in all our dimensions.
