Reflectors are very rare. I only known one. They pick up on everything and are radically receptive to the world around them and the energies they take on. They are sort of like walking blank canvases. They “try on” different energies throughout the day depending on who they are around or the environment they are in. This has an effect on their energy levels. They are the ultimate human chameleons.
Taking on what is around them is not something they intend to do or something they can turn off. It’s just a mechanical function of their energetic bodies. The lesson here for Reflectors is to allow their radical openness to be a superpower by following the vibe of their soul to wherever they need to go that day. The alternative is letting their conditioning dictate how to be, think and feel.
Reflectors are mirrors that show the rest of us who we really are. That is their soul purpose - to reflect our true essences back to us. Sometimes, if we are hiding ourselves around a Reflector, or in life generally, the Reflector will reflect back to us our own projections. This is a very valuable tool for humanity. Of course, as with any mirror, the reflection is only as clear as the mirror - to become crystal clear, a Reflector must learn to become free and unattached from needing to be a certain way. This requires a lot of work deconditioning societal programming.
Reflectors energy ebbs and flows. Nothing about them is mean to be consistent. Reflectors need to be very discerning with their environments and limit time in places and around people that are draining to them. Success stems from a commitment to leave places where they don’t fee good and brining in more environments and people where they do.
A Reflector’s Strategy is called Being Carried - just following the nudges from the Universe moving them toward where they are meant to be. They will know it is the right direction for them because they will receive many nudges from the Universe. Reflectors are associated with the lunar cycle because they need to make sure something feels right to them in all of their different phases of being. They should resist the urge to act on the first nudge. Let the situation play out over time before making any move. When things keep repeating, that’s when they know they are ready to take action. Waiting is very powerful for Reflectors. Waiting until the right time allows everything to fall into place for them.
When Reflectors are in alignment with their design, in the Self, they will feel surprise. Reflectors want nothing more than to be delighted by life. They accomplish this by being very curious and open to what the world can show them. When they are in their Not Self they will feel disappointment. That can look like feeling down, or limited/restricted, comparing themselves to others and deciding others have a better life; and being disappointed in humans and life altogether. This can also be expressed as a need to go overboard, trying to cram as much into their lives as they can. As with the other energy types, Reflectors should use this feeling of disappointment as a cue that they are out of alignment or something is off.
Reflectors don’t have any defined centers (the shapes in their Human Design chart are all white) and, therefore, don’t have an Authority. What they do follow is what we call Lunar Authority, or No Authority. Their intuition comes from outside of them. They are designed to wait for the Universe to give them direction. This can take anywhere from a couple weeks go a month to receive all of the nudges from the Universe and to consider decisions in all of their moods and facets of their personalities. This can take a few days to a few weeks. Reflectors should not rush any decisions.
We covered a lot of ground with these five energy types. Next we will take a look at how this information is helpful to you in your everyday life - not just your own type, but knowing other people’s as well.

Human Design - Generators
To recap from last week, we all have an energy type in our Human Design blueprint and the energy type shows us the best way for us to operate in the world. In my school of thought, it is made up of a few different elements. I combine these elements, like Strategy and Authority, because they go hand in hand with our energy type and to see the whole pic…
Human Design - Projectors
The next energy type we have are the Projectors. Projectors have the gift of seeing things in a way that others can’t. They are here to tweak and improve and make things more efficient in the unique ways only they are able to do. Whatever their niche or area of obsession is, that’s how they are meant to express their gift. Projectors have a bird’s e…
Human Design - Manifestors
If your chart says you are a Manifestor, it does not mean you are better at manifesting, or that you are even good at it. It has nothing to do with that. So, what does it mean to be a Manifestor in Human Design, then?
Manifesting Generators
Manifesting Generators and Generators have a lot in common. Everything that applies to Generators also applies to Manifesting Generators. But, there are a few things that ManGens don’t share with Generators and that is what I will focus on today.
Human Design
I love Human Design. It’s a system that tells us who we are, what we came here to do and what our highest potential looks like. It is somewhat complicated to learn. It isn’t as mainstream (yet) as astrology. It incorporates astrology and iching systems. My focus is on the parts of the system where your understanding can lead to the biggest changes i…
