Gate 13.3: The Opposite of Gossip Girl

If you've read any of my other posts, you'll be let in on something I've also been let in on while studying my Human Design. A big theme in my chart is gathering knowledge through lived experience and sharing that learning with a wider community. Catch up by learning more about my 3/5 Profile and Hanging Gate 11

 GATES ▷ gate 13 ▷ gate 51 
▶ LINES ▷ 3

 CENTERS ▷ g center ▷ heart center

 CHANNELS ▷ the channel of initiation

 PROFILES ▷ 3/5 the great experimenter 

With Gate 13, the interpretation I'm experiencing is to share this wisdom like gold. I've actually felt my Solar Plexus Center speaking to me in situations when I've shared the gold when I shouldn't have, and when I've shared the gold with someone who needed it more than I do. 

Research has suggested that humans are actually biologically prone to gossiping for various reasons. So, even though I've got a hanging Gate 13 (No Gate 33, which would form a channel from the G Center to the Throat Center, encouraging me to share the knowledge), I've still been caught up in gossip. Toward the end of 2023, I was summoned for Jury Duty. My friends and family begged me to tell them what the case was about, but I couldn't. My past experience with gossip led me to extreme anxiety over sharing something I should not have shared. Call it a Micro LAB, if you will, but I promised myself to not share anything from Jury Duty with anyone to avoid those bad feelings in my gut. And it worked! 

So, my mantra became: I gave up gossiping for 2023. It's wild how much less anxiety I have when I'm not sharing things that aren't meant to be shared. The reason? Because I'm raising my vibration and living in alignment and feeling that energy feeling!

Onto the opposite end: sharing the gold with people who need it more than I do. The reason I chose to explain my Gate 13 this way is because people share gold with me constantly. As a Gate 13, this is totally typical. I mean, strangers will start telling me their life story out of nowhere. This is also a very Taurus (which I am) thing. People just feel comforted by Taureans and share anything and everything with them. With Gate 13, I am delighted to listen to other people's problems. In fact, I even considered becoming some sort of therapist. But, I did not want to follow traditional systems. I actually started a Micro LAB (Remember, 3/5 = The Great Experimenter) called Anonymous BFF where I offered people a 1:1 chat with me (anonymously) about anything

When people share this 💫gold💫with me, it goes into some gold cave deep within and melts down with all the other gold. Then, when someone comes to me looking for advice, I pull from all the melted gold and share things I didn't even know I had processed from all the conversations and gold drops I've ever experienced in my life. The feeling in my Solar Plexus then is absolute alignment. The important thing to note here is that I feel so turned off by traditional systems like therapy as an outlet for my wisdom because I see it as fixed, LEARNED wisdom from specific text shared in a *methodical* way. What I'm striving for is open, EXPERIENCED wisdom, shared in an *emotional* way.

Out of all this came my freelance persona super BFF (like your BFF with added skills). I looked for a way to turn Anonymous BFF into something more tangible. A way to bring my skills and experiences to paying clients who need my exact wisdom. How do I find these clients? By initiating

See how it all comes together?

But this is not what the exaltation and detriment speak of for Line 3 with Gate 13. These ends of the energy spectrum are all about truth and pessimism. The way this shows up for me is as a sifter of the gold particles before they enter the cave. What is true about what a person told me and what is not? Can I believe them? What more do I need to know that they told the truth? This can and has led me down a dark path where I obsess over the information before allowing it into the cave to meld. If there's some silver mixed in with the gold, I can't allow it into the melding process. 

Don't fear, all those who have received advice from me in the past, this sifting is a natural process and even if some silver seeps in, it is filtered out during the sharing and then receiving process. <3

Gate 11: So Many Ideas So Little Time

Diving deeper into each of the Gates in my profile, I'm starting in numerical order with Gate 11. Gate 11 appears in both my Design and Personality calculations, each with a different line attached. Not only that, but Gate 11 is activated by the planet Uranus in both calculations. Here is what I will be discussing in this post. Go check out the resources to learn more about them for yourself!

DESIGN CALCULATION ▷ The Unconscious | Who I am (Others can likely see this more easily than I can)

▶ PERSONALITY CALCULATION ▷ The Conscious | Who I think I am (The illusion drawn from conditioning)

▶ PLANETS ▷ uranus

GATES ▷ 11 

▶ LINES ▷ ▷ 5 

SIGNATURE ▷ peace
 
AUTHORITY ▷ emotional solar plexus
 
STRATEGY ▷ to inform

So, what does it all mean in reference to my BodyGraph? I'd like to start with more traditional explanations of the elements, and then dive into my own interpretation.

Other Explanations 

Let's start with Uranus.

Whether Astrology or Human Design, the planet of Uranus is associated with basically the same concepts. Taking the definition from Cafe Astrology, we see: 

Uranus is associated with technology, innovation, discovery, and all that is progressive. 

On the upside, Uranus is associated with enlightenment, progressiveness, objectivity, novelty, and ingenuity. 

Negative expression of Uranus is rebelliousness without a cause and irresponsibility. 

— Cafe Astrology

Now, onto the Gate. 

In my Defined Gates Post, I linked out to various issues of The Daily View that explained what each gate and line combination meant. I'm relinking them below for easy access to better understand this post.

My Design Gate 11 is attached to Line 3 | Review the explanation of Gate 11 and Line 3 here before continuing 

My Personality Gate 11 is attached to Line 5. | Review the explanation of Line 5 here before continuing (the explanation of Gate 11 will be the same)

With Human Design we also see the Exaltation (or Positive) and Detriment (or Negative) for the various lines attached to a Gate. Although, most HD people today harken back to the original concept as put forth by Ra Uru Hu, that there is no real "negative" or "positive" to either. They're more so just different ends of the energy spectrum. 

My Interpretation

So, Gate 11 is the Gate of Ideas. 

For me it's a hanging gate (Not connected to the Gate at the other end of a possible channel, in this case gate 56. When both of these specific gates are defined, they connect to create The Channel of Curiosity).

Not only that but Gate 11 lives in the Ajna Center, which, for me, is open. I do not have anything connecting my Ajna to my Throat Center. 

Detriment
What I do have is a constant feeling of wanting to execute my ideas. When I don't have an outlet for them, I don't know how to relax and I feel like I am wasting my time on Earth. Since I am already constantly thinking, trying to find the answer, processing opinions, gaining insights, having ideas, being affected by other people's energy, and trying to help others find answers, process their ideas, gain insight, etc, or this overall awareness, my mind rarely stops. When it does, I feel useless. "Fiddling while Rome burns" and "Giving away ideas out of a sense of insecurity" as mentioned in The Daily View links in my intro couldn't be more true for me. Do I really need to be making another Instagram account at the top of my emotional wave when the real story I should be telling might be where the wave crashes to the shore? Am I writing this blog because I really want to remember all of this information for myself (and have an open Head Center that can't retain it all), or am I more caught up with needing other people to understand me? 

Conditioning
The biggest way this shows up for me in correlation to Gate 11 is the idea of rest. I feel guilt when I rest. I feel depression and anxiety when I rest. I believe rest is one of the most important things a Manifestor can do for themselves, but it feels impossible when you have bills to pay. Then I get mad. So, when all these ideas come to me, if I don't do anything with them, what value am I bringing to society?

Exaltation
In many explanations of Gate 11 online, little is touched the idea that Peace is associated with the Gate of Ideas. (Sidenote: Peace also aligns with the Manifestor type's Signature, which is... Peace! So as long as I am working in alignment with my Design, I should feel at Peace and that is my ultimate goal. More on this later.) According to ifate.com, Hexagram 11 of the I'Ching "in its most literal sense means heaven supporting the earth." 

The way I interpret this as tied to the meaning of the Gate of Ideas is this the concept of remembering and sharing knowledge with others at the right time. Throughout this blog you'll see how this theme comes back time and time again for me. As a 3/5 profile this meshes well. Basically what I learned about being a 3/5 profile is that I am supposed to share lived experiences with others, but only when the timing is right to do so. It's all very Celestine Prophecy.

If we take the concepts of "heaven" and "earth" and view them more as "spiritual" and "physical" (a step further would be "design" and "personality"), we could see a correlation between Gate 11's "ideas" and "sharing."  

I do think I'm on the right track. I think all of these experiments or Micro LABS are practice for the real thing. The thing that will matter. Although, it is true that I am burning myself out along the way which is typical of Manifestors who are not paying attention. What I really should be doing is not executing any of my Micro LABS until I know the timing is right. 

I am also writing a book. The act of writing a book is literally taking things you remember (or making them up) and sharing them as a reflection of the larger story of life. Reflection is what those with the Gate of Ideas and no connection to the Throat Center are asked to do until their Inner Authority tells them the time is right to share it. I often say that writing a book is my life's work. That all of my experiences, knowledge, lessons to be shared, etc will be in this book.


This shows up on a micro level every day in the following ways:
  • Being a juror and having to wait until the end of the trial to hear all of the evidence and then be able to share a verdict with the court.
  • Having an idea and waiting until my emotional wave passes to execute on it (still learning how to do this as my tendency is to go go go when I'm in the high of the emotional wave).
  • Hearing everything about my friends' love life before offering her a possible solution.
I just read this out loud to my boyfriend who replied:

"Sometimes I feel like you're one of those people in a movie whose trying to solve a case. You have the bulletin board up with the pushpins and all the photos and the red string connecting it all. That's how you talk sometimes." 

💕+lol



On a macro level, I feel this appears in a way that I've always understood but couldn't really put my finger on.
  • When I've really connected with a song .
  • All my FireFox bookmarks that I can't bring myself to clean up
  • My interest in archiving.
  • Being energized around new people, hearing their stories and sharing my own. Particularly when I make people laugh.
All of these bullets simply add up to an awareness of the beauty of life. So when am I supposed to share what I witnessed? Well, on a micro level I do so every day. On a macro level, it's still unclear and may be for a long time. As I said in my Manifesto, maybe I have already done it.

Strategy
If I follow my Strategy which is TO INFORM. I am supposed to meet less resistance. I think I abuse the INFORMING concept. Sometimes I will simply inform a friend that I'm starting a new Micro LAB and hope that's enough for me to go out and do it. Where I find resistance in those cases is within. I'll realize that the timing wasn't actually right because no one is receiving the information, which was my hope with it. Then, I get angry. There is a conundrum here, which I think is also impacted heavily by my Channel of Initiation and design need to be first.


From what I can gather, the way I can not abuse INFORMING is actually by following my Authority first, and my Strategy second. So far in life, I think I've done the opposite in a "do first, ask for permission (from myself lol) later" kind of scenario. 


Authority
Since I have an emotional authority, all I need to do is let the ideas be. Maybe I should have an idea journal where I put all of them (okay--I do, but I am not in a good habit of creating entries) and revisit them later, when my emotional wave has subsided and I am in a place of calm. Then, I will know when, or if, they should be revealed. 

Sidenote: Astrologically, along with all of my fellow Millennials, my Uranus is in Sagittarius. The best word to describe this placement? Rebellious. 

Questions for Myself & Those Like Me:
  • At what point do my ideas become the ignition for others' mission? Am I okay with allowing this to be so?
  • Am I okay with letting ideas never see the light of day? Or at least waiting until they're ready to?
  • How can I be more aware of the ideas that flow in and out of me, while not dedicating my entire well-being to them?
  • When I have an idea, how can I give it enough attention without giving it all of my attention?

My BodyGraph: The Defined Gates

Welcome to the defined gates represented in my BodyGraph. 

To learn more about Gates and Lines, click the links below or visit my resources. 

▶ GATES

▶ LINES

As mentioned throughout this blog, there are many many readers and resources online to gather interpretations of your own gates and lines. I enjoy reading archives of the IHDS's Daily View newsletter. 

According to their website (where you can also subscribe to receive live versions of the newsletter which I highly recommend and will talk about in an other post): 

The Daily View reflects the impact the Sun (70% of the neutrino influence) is having on humanity as it moves through the Gates and Lines of the Mandala. Transits are potentials that you can witness in others and the world around you, and, if correct for you, as you follow your individual Strategy and Authority, may become a part of your experience as well.

So although this newsletter discusses specific transits, it also gives evergreen explanations about the Gates and Lines through which the planets are moving. 

To find the archived newsletter pertaining to your Gate and Line, simply google "Gate _ Line _ The Daily View" and voila!

LABS & MICRO LABS: 3/5 Profile - The Great Experimenter - An Introduction ⚗️🔬🧫🧪👩‍🔬

FYI: Before you start reading you may want to familiarize yourself with some HD terminology. You can find a list of resources and more information about them in the navigation bar and below that will help explain the basics of these terms. Terms covered in this post include:
LINES ▷ 3rd5th

PROFILES3/5

CONDITIONING

I also create my own terms to help me better understand my chart. You can find those in the footer of the blog website.

Long before I ever knew I was a 3/5 profile, I was an experimenter. By the time I learned I was a 3/5 profile, I started to better understand why I had felt the need to experiment throughout my life. I actually only found out I was an experimenter around age 32. 

So how did I know what to do before that? 

With human design there are unconscious and conscious factors. Sometimes it's not until you shine a light on the unconscious that you even know it's there. This is the experience I had. I believe that many people are living out their design without actually being conscious of it. It's like when you experienced this weird feeling that you've been exactly where you are sometime before, but you're not sure when or where, then you explain your experience to someone at a sleepover, who happened to have an older sister, and they revealed to you that this is actually a popular phenomenon, and with a name to boot—like what happened to me in 7th grade with déjà vu.

As mentioned in my Manifesto, I grew up in an analog world and experimenting manifested as various hobbies in my childhood. Not only that, but I felt the experimentation happened in hyper speed. I was an only child until 8th grade, so most of my time was filled with trying to entertain myself. I would make up my own games, pretend I was an ice skater in socks on the carpeted floor, tight-rope walk on the vacuum cable, read encyclopedia CDs, retype the backs of VHS tape boxes, dress up my dog, create a magazine cover, pretend I was a barista, spy on my mother, and imagine my bicycle was a car—all in a day's work. I constantly had to be doing something.

In high school I worked at a bakery, a supermarket, and at the mall. I played two sports (lacrosse and field hockey) and was a member of the dance club and the yearbook club. I took sewing classes, an extra-curricular journalism course, volunteered around town, and had three blogs (a Myspace, a LiveJournal, and a Xanga). That's it? What am I forgetting?

Looking back, at that point, if anyone got in the way of my experiments, I would absolutely launch into my not-self theme of anger. If my mom told me it was time for bed, or the year book club president wanted to layout a page differently than me, or the lacrosse coach wanted me to do a drill I didn't feel like doing, I would become angry. The anger I felt as a child, teen, and into my adulthood was all the same anger. I was meeting resistance when I was simply trying to live as I was designed to.

As an adult this culminated in me holding several different career paths (though they were all somewhat related) in the span of 10 years. They are as follows:

a conditioned career lab | 2011-2018

💼 Ad Agency Intern
🥇Promoted to Social Engagement & Copywriter
🏃‍♀️Left with nothing lined up after months and months of anger building over literally anything and everything: colleagues, clients, boss, projects. I knew I had to move on but didn't know how or why. Eventually I came to a point where I could not stay another day.

Boss asked: Is there anything we can do to make you stay?
My answer: No.

💼 Newsletter Editor at a Magazine
🥇Promoted to Special Projects Manager
🏃‍♀️Left because I no longer believed in what the magazine stood for and became angrier and angrier every day at everyone around me. I knew I had to move on but didn't know how or why. Eventually I came to a point where I could not stay another day.

Boss asked: You really want to leave so you can be one of those people who annoys us every day?
My answer: Yes.

💼 Music Publicist
🏃‍♀️Left after a few months because the work did not fulfill me. I knew I had to move on but didn't know how or why. Eventually I came to a point where I could not stay another day.

Boss was bummed but understanding. 

💼Editorial Manager at a Music App
🥇Promoted to Editorial Director
🥇Promoted to Head of Artist Partnerships
🏃‍♀️Left because I no longer believed in what the app stood for and became angrier and angrier every day at everyone around me over literally anything and everything: colleagues, clients, boss, projects, and the work did not fulfill me. I knew I had to move on but didn't know how or why. Eventually I came to a point where I could not stay another day.

Boss asked: Is there anything we can do to make you stay and how long have you been feeling this way?
My answer: No. Since birth.

The above outlines what I look back on as a "a conditioned career lab" which lasted from 2011-2018. I knew nothing about conditioning, but unconsciously followed my emotional inner authority which led me in the right direction. Those feelings of anger and needing to leave were so overwhelming, it was like my soul was projecting me out of a chair and I couldn't control it if I had tried. Unfortunately, my physical body and conscious mind took all the hits. I was burnt out—a major theme for Manifestors—because I was living in a conditioned space, consciously trying to go against the grain with the types of jobs I landed, but subconsciously going with the grain by keeping a nine to five for the paycheck and benefits. 

That feeling of not knowing how to leave an experiment or why, but just knowing I have to, or feeling unfulfilled, or no longer aligning with a company mission (there was nothing wrong with their mission, it was just wrong for me) is a prime example of just that--not living in alignment.

During 2018, I began what I will call "a creative expression lab" which I believe I am still in. When I look back on the "conditioned career lab," I am supposed to see my mistakes and be able to use that learning in future experiments and experiences. When reading about 3/5 profiles you'll see that most readers talk about the "mistakes" of a 3/5 profile not being seen as mistakes. For me, it goes a step further where I don't even see what these mistakes are. I don't need to make a mistake, call it a mistake, then prevent the mistake in the future. For me the words "mistake" and "regret" are filtered out of my vocabulary. If I made the same mistake again and again during my conditioned career lab, I don't see what it is. What I see is my inner authority was screaming so loud that I couldn't ignore it. Maybe I could have listened to it sooner if I had known to, but that is not a mistake and I don't regret it. Instead, I see all of this as lived experience with purpose. What is the purpose? I may never know, but I at least know this all needs to be shared somewhere. Which, again, is why I'm here.

In my "creative expression experiment" phase, and now knowing more about Human Design, I am aware of the anger I feel and am very easily able to identify the sources. I am able to look at the conscious and unconscious parts of my personality and design in a visual representation of me (How cool is that?).

So what does the "creative expression experiment" timeline look like, you ask?

creative expression lab | 2018-present

🎨 Founded an independent Risograph zine-printing and brand consulting company
📚 Worked at two book/zine shops
✍️ Started writing a novel
🛍️ Freelanced for a fashion resale start-up
🦋 Started MICRO LABS by creating various IG accounts for different ideas I felt the need to create*
🎂 Work at a bakery*
☂️ Combined all of my interests under one umbrella to be able to pitch myself and pay my bills*

*Indicates current LABS

Where the conditioned career lab took the same form again and again, my new lab phase is more diverse. It may seem more disorganized to you, but it looks beautiful to me. You can still see elements of that constant need to be doing something, but instead of it resulting in anger, it's now resulting in something closer to my ultimate goal of peace. The way I channel it now is by constantly looking for new opportunities for my creative expression: following new ideas, initiating new potential freelance clients, working on my book. I believe whatever my next phase is will be even closer to that goal of peace. I am also able to recognize that the constant need to be doing something is actually an easy way to describe the high of my emotional wave. 

Emotional waves are typical of Manifestor profiles. We can work as much as a Generator or Manifesting Generator, but only when we are ignited to do so. At that point, we must make sure we are in a place of calm, then we must inform others of what we are doing. Then, we must stop before we go too far. Then, we must rest. (Imagine describing this as your management style in an interview LUL.) This is still something I need to practice. I find myself wanting to get all of my creative expression out when I'm in the height of the wave and not after it breaks and rides to the shore with ease. 

I'm getting there.

One final thing I'd like to mention as a teaser for a future post, is how I got all of the jobs I've ever had. I got them all in the exact same way: initiating. Which is exactly what a Manifestor does. Stay tuned...

Are you a Manifestor whose beginning a LAB, or in the middle of one? Consider my LAB REPORT freebie to promote awareness along the way. I'm going to try it, too. Find it in the Downloads section.

Is your inner authority emo like mine? I am working on a list of partners who I believe can help us. Stay tuned.

BEING SHOOK + LUUURV = The Human Design Channel of Initiation (25-51)

I think of Hallie Parker and Annie James in 'The Parent Trap'.

FYI: Before you start reading you may want to familiarize yourself with some HD terminology. You can find a list of resources and more information about them in the navigation bar and below that will help explain the basics of these terms. Terms covered in this post include:

GATES ▷ gate 25 ▷ gate 51

CENTERS ▷ g center ▷ heart center

CHANNELS ▷ the channel of initiation

PROFILES ▷ 3/5 the great experimenter 

I also create my own terms to help me better understand my chart. You can find those in the footer of the blog website.


There’s a lot to remember when it comes to Human Design. Somehow, when I’m reviewing my Body Graph, analogies often present themselves to me help me to better understand the different parts of my own chart. This seems to be common among readers in the field, so I think I’m on the right track. Maybe it’s Source encouraging a moment in which a 3/5 profile is to bring a specific experience to those around them. In one particular example of this phenomenon, I instantly thought of Hallie Parker and Annie James from The Parent Trap when coming to understand The Channel of Initiation which is present in my chart. Here, Gate 25 (The Gate of Spirit, located in the G-Center) and Gate 51 (The Gate of Shock, located in the Heart Center) are connected, forming a channel between the two energy centers.

Anyone who has this same channel in their chart is probably familiar with the feelings of:

+ Just needing to get something out there—and quick—so nobody does it before you do. 

+ Feeling strange energetic occurrences that others might call "competitiveness" but I call being "shook." I used to wonder how stuff like this could happen, by just being myself. Now, I get it. 

For me this has shown up in a myriad of ways throughout my life from bullying, to someone actually stealing my resume, to someone I barely know trying to cancel me on social media, to working myself so hard to complete that task I just *needed* to complete.

+ The feeling of LUUURV:

I believe this feeling is comprised of all the good stuff, or ways of seeing through a different lens, that come with being in high vibration (I like to call it "The Energy Feeling"). It goes beyond just me, but also toward my positive feeling of connection toward the world in general, meaning other people, animals, plants, etc (I am a vegan after all).

One hard truth I have to face despite feeling the sense of urgency to do something before no one else is that most things have already been done before. Not only that, but in the right hands, this NEED can be quite dangerous (conquering, colonizing, urgency without thought). 

So, how do I use it responsibly? So far, this is shown up for me in my LABS or experiments. As a 3/5 profile I am prone to experimentation. I will cover this in a future post. But basically through the eyes of HD, my main purpose here on Earth is to experiment, learn from my experiments, and share my learnings with everyone else. Hmmm. I will dedicate another post to my LABS as well :). All you have to know right now is, I create stuff. 

So, what does this have to do with Lindsay Lohan’s (a 1/3 Sacral Generator, but that’s besides the point) portrayal of two long lost twins?

In my opinion, Hallie and Annie’s relationship is the exact manifestation of The Channel of Initiation. Here’s why.


Human Design Truth: The Channel of Initiation is Awesome, literally. Inspiring admiration (aura-effects as you'll see later) and apprehension (competitiveness) simultaneously.  

Because of this, things tend to happen that may not otherwise have seemed possible. 

The Parent Trap Truth: Two Twins Separated at Birth Meet on a Chance Encounter

What are the chances that this would happen? Pretty low. Yet for Hallie and Annie it happened (I know it's a movie, but just go with me lol). And that’s just the beginning.


Human Design Truth: Because of the "awesomeness" I mentioned previously, the auras of 25-51 people are hugely impactful. Their energy tends to fuel either that adoring or competitive state.

The Parent Trap Truth: Everyone at the camp is in awe of the twins, even the counselors, and eventually their own parents.

Each twin moves around camp as the leader of their own little posse. They’ve gained their own followers of people who are strongly affected by them. When they finally team up, they go unrivaled and once they initiate that super love (LUUURV), they highly empower each other, and later their parents, too.


Human Design Truth: 25-51s may experience those strange energetic occurrences I mentioned before where people seemingly try to compete with them and they really have no idea why. Sometimes it can manifest in a 25-51 even trying to outdo themselves!

The Parent Trap Truth: Hallie and Annie compete with each other at various moments in the film while trying to prove to themselves that they’re the better twin.

The hazing, the fencing, and the poker game, and later when Hallie doesn’t want to switch back to her true identity are prime examples of this. Not to mention, when they compete with Meredith for their father’s attention (shadow side, I like to call it "The Unsettling" creeping in!).

Oddly, Annie and Hallie (and even Lindsay as you’ll see later) each show both sides of the 25-51 coin (meaning both gates individually, as well as the low and high vibrations of the Channel). After the fencing match, Camp Counselor Marva asks the girls to accept a “good game” by shaking hands. They remove their helmets only to reveal that they look identical. Annie is ready to except this magic, but Hallie continues to berate her looks. This heavily affects Annie who joins back in on the berating, and then their competition is fueled even further.


Human Design Truth: Perfectionism. When you want to be the first at something, you also want to be the best at it, right?!

The Parent Trap Truth: Each twin is awarded best-of-the-best status in one way or another.

During the poker game, Hallie gets the highest hand possible (“In your honor, a Royal Flush.”) while Annie even wins the fencing title of “New Camp Champ,” out-fencing all previous campers at Camp Walden, including Hallie.


Human Design Truth: When I get "That Energy Feeling" it's because I have decided to allow it in. I have chosen to be open to making friends, having new experiences, feeling love, and garnering support. The impact of this can be felt by those around me.

The Parent Trap Truth: It isn’t until Hallie and Annie accept their situation that they are able to understand, love, become BFFs, and figure out a way to help each other.

Eventually this impacts both of their lives as well as the lives of their parents, Chessy, Martin, Meredith, and Grandpa Charles.


Human Design Truth: 25-51 is one of the channels that falls under the "Projected" category. So, I don't have to do anything for all of this to happen. It just does.

The Parent Trap Truth: Neither twin did anything to initiate this new aspect of their lives.

Both girls simply arrived at camp and all of this was ignited on its own.


Human Design Truth: One thing that helps bring me to That Energy Place is understanding that I am not necessarily here for ME. For example, maybe that person who stole my resume actually needed it more than I did. Maybe my higher self created it knowing full well what would happen. Unconsciously this is totally fine, but consciously it's a hard truth to accept. Once I see the things in my life as greater than myself, I am more open...to everything! This doesn't mean I need to lose my identity, but a good question for me to ask myself is how can I go through an "ego death" in a sense, in order to be more open to the impact I can have, versus "hoarding resources" so-to-speak?

The Parent Trap Truth: Once Hallie and Annie understood that if they literally let go of their egos, they would be stronger as one unit (even if it meant they had to adopt the identity of the other lol).

Also, Hallie and Annie are both portrayed by one Lindsay. Oneness, people!


Human Design Truth: Of course, one major theme across HD, Astrology, and even Therapy is being able to accept what is. If me and other 25-51s can do this we will be fully open to that LUUURV.

The Parent Trap Truth: After Hallie and Annie ruin their father’s relationship with Meredith and are punished for it, they begin to accept and surrender.

This is when their parents finally begin to understand.


Human Design Truth: We all know what it's like to be SHOOK. What matters is what we do with our shooken-ness. The elements of being shook are confusion, surprise, lack of inner understanding, maybe some fear, and definitely some change. If I can see how these moments are igniters of change for me, they are easier to accept. Then, I can bring my learnings toward my ultimate goal: peace.

The Parent Trap Truth: Imagine removing YOUR own fencing helmet only to find that when your competitor does the same, you look physically exactly the same. 

What happens next for Hallie and Annie? I think you know :)

Welcome to The Manifestor Diaries! Here is my official Manifesto®


I am not a certified Human Design reader. I am one girl trying to understand her own chart, and sharing my learnings, interpretation, and experience with you. By the way, my Head Center is open so I can't remember anything and I think this blog will really help me reference my own chart. My Ajna Center is open, too. I think this means I have a remembrance in my body versus in my brain. Cool.
