The 9 Human Design Centers and their 64 gates in the world of work

Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of the Human Design Centers. The Human Design Centers are the basic framework that reveals the secrets of your personality. In this blog post, I would like to introduce you to the centers of the Human Design Chart, which illuminate both your strengths and your potential areas of growth.

Discover how the defined and open or undefined centers and their gates in your Human Design Chart influence your impact in the working world and how you can use these insights to lead an authentic professional life.

The Human Design Centers of the Human Design Chart

When you look at your Human Design Chart, you will probably notice the Human Design Centers first. These are the nine triangular, diamond or square shapes that are either colored or white. The colored centers are the defined centers. The white centers are referred to as open Human Design centers. You can have your personal Human Design Chart created free of charge by entering your birth data in my Human Design Calculator.

Now back to the Human Design Centers. Each of the centers is a node (similar to the chakras in yoga) that contains a certain frequency or energy information system. Each center has an important function. Whether the Human Design Centers are defined or open or undefined says a lot about us as a person. Basically, it is all about the difference between effect and perception.

In a professional context, I repeatedly find that strengths, weaknesses and especially interests, but also conditioning, can be derived from the centers. Which Human Design center is defined and which is open and how the connections run also determines which of the five Human Design types a person belongs to.

Open and defined Human Design Centers

Defined and open Human Design Centers show you in which aspects you are “firmly in the saddle” and where you increasingly perceive things from the outside and let them get to you or which have an attractive effect on you. You often feel drawn to what you don’t embody yourself.

Human Design Centers – Defined

The defined centers (colored) have a constant function. These aspects are “set in stone”, so to speak. You can rely on them because there is a continuous energy in the defined centers.

Human Design Centers – Open

In open Human Design Centers, the energy is not constant with regard to certain characteristics. You are more open to external influences, especially from people with an appropriately defined center. Open centers give you flexibility and empathy. Completely open centers that do not have a docked gate (hanging gate) are particularly susceptible to conditioning.

Motor centers

At a deeper level of Human Design, there are different Human Design Centers, four of which are called Motor Centers. These motor centers are sources of life energy, each in its own way.

The sacral center as a motor center

The defined sacral center symbolizes enduring energy. It provides sustained energy, especially when you are engaged in activities that give you pleasure. The work is fulfilling and this motor automatically recharges itself. The sacral center regenerates itself, especially after a long, fulfilling day, when you come to rest.

The root center as the motor center

The root center represents the starting energy. With a defined root center, you will find it easier to get up in the morning. It motivates and drives you on. On the downside, it can lead to self-stress (defined) or you are easily stressed by others (undefined).

The emotional center as a motor center

Emotions are energy in motion that must be released at some point. Every emotion has its function, and even unpleasant feelings provide energy to move forward in life.

The heart center as a motor center

Among other things, the heart center is a symbol of willpower. This motor is used to fight for one’s own will, to assert it and to gain influence.

Awareness centers

In addition to the motor centers, there is another type of human design center, the awareness centers. These include the spleen center, the ajna center and the emotion center (which is also a motor center).

Each of these Human Design Centers focuses on a specific type of awareness and energetic processing. The spleen center (triangle on the left) has a body consciousness and is focused on the survival of the body (survival intelligence). The Ajna center (lower triangle in the head) has a mental awareness and is concerned with mental intelligence. The emotional solar plexus (triangle on the right) also has a spiritual awareness and is concerned with emotional intelligence.

Human Design Centers: The Crown Center

Defined crown center

If you want to find solutions at work and create ideas from within yourself, it is an advantage if you have a defined crown. As a creative mind in the company, you can benefit from this quality and become a source of ideas and inspiration. You can rely on your head, but you also need team players with diverse designs to help you implement your ideas.

However, there is also a flip side to the coin, because sometimes ideas and solutions go round in circles and never come to rest. This endless loop can drive you mad. You should therefore use techniques such as meditation, yoga or yoga nidra to interrupt these thoughts.

Undefined crown center

If you have an undefined crown center, it is usually difficult for you to have consistent access to your thought processes and to remember things well. Even if you prepare intensively for a meeting, it can seem like your mind goes blank just beforehand. However, you can be confident that you will recall the right information at the right time.

With an undefined crown center, you are also receptive to the thoughts and ideas of your colleagues and you sometimes cannot distinguish which ideas are really your own and which are not. It is important to mirror the ideas of others in an appreciative way and to be flexible in your thought processes. Because of your flexible mind and deep understanding of others’ ideas, you are able to think creatively and innovatively.

The Human Design Gates of the Crown Center

Human Design Gate 64

Gate 64 – Reflection / Completion: You are under constant mental pressure to reflect on past experiences and discover their overall meaning – a cycle that creates confusion until the images are clarified.

Human Design Gate 61

Gate 61 – Exploration / Inner Truth: Human Design Gate 61 allows you to become aware of universal life principles and creates the mental pressure to recognize absolute truths, to mentally explore life and the unknown, and to share the findings to inspire others.

Human Design Gate 63

Gate 63 – Review / Verification / After Completion: Gate 63 is the mental pressure to review concepts to ensure a secure future. You have a skeptical mind that harbors doubt and needs logical clarity, facts, reasoning and evidence to recognize future-proof patterns.

Human Design Centers: The Ajna Center

Defined Ajna center

If you have a defined Ajna center, you are an analyst by nature. You are able to process and recall numbers, data and facts at any time, which often forms the basis for your decisions. However, it is important to understand that decisions should not be made by the mind alone, but by our inner authority.

If you rely solely on your mind, you think purely rationally and may make decisions that do not necessarily contribute to your well-being. It is therefore important to open yourself up to your body sensations and listen to your gut feeling, even if it doesn’t seem logical at first glance.

By relying on your inner authority and incorporating your gut feeling into your decision making, you can make decisions that truly suit you and move you forward on your life path. It is important to understand that you are not only a rational analyst, but also an intuitive feeler who can use your inner wisdom to make the right decisions.

Undefined Ajna center

If you have an undefined Ajna center, you cannot process information in a consistent way. You find it difficult to focus on your own mind. Instead, you can mirror the thoughts and ideas of your colleagues and superiors to ensure that projects and processes don’t get bogged down.

For you, there is not THE truth, even if you have examined many perspectives. It is therefore important to give yourself space to consider different scenarios in parallel as options. It is also difficult for you to answer spontaneously. It’s better to say “I don’t know right now” than to give in to pressure and simply say something that hasn’t been thought through.

You should take the pressure off and take time to think or research. It’s okay if you don’t have an answer straight away. Take your time to gather all the information and then make an informed decision.

Human Design Gate 47

Gate 47 – Interpretation / Distress: Gate 47 creates mental pressure within you to understand the past, it causes you to piece together fragments of memory to make sense of it, which can be helpful in coming to terms with your own past as well as collective experiences.

Human Design Gate 24

Gate 24 – Introspection / Return: Gate 24 gives you the ability to question yourself intensely and look deep within yourself, allowing you to recognize truths and find rational answers by mentally combing through questions, leading to deep insights and significant progress on your path to self-knowledge.

Human Design Gate 4

Gate 4 – Developing Your Own Theories / Thesis Building / Youthful Folly: Gate 4 gives you the ability to find logical solutions to various problems through your strong imagination and constant desire for answers, allowing you to offer unsolicited solutions and generate new ideas for a better future.

Human Design Gate 11

Gate 11 – Ideas / Peace: Through Gate 11 you have the talent to develop creative and new ideas from your experiences and reflections, which, even if they are not necessarily implemented, serve as inspiration for others with the aim of improving social conditions.

Human Design Gate 43

Gate 43 – Insight / Breakthrough: With Gate 43, your inner voice suddenly and unexpectedly offers you profound insights that can lead to innovative ideas and help you to understand things for yourself, regardless of other opinions.

Human Design Gate 17

Goal 17 – Opinions / Succession: You have the ability to process information logically in order to form well-founded opinions, anticipate future scenarios and organize complex systems and structures.

Human Design Centers: The Throat Center

Defined throat center

As a person with a throat center that is connected to different centers and channels, you determine the way you bring your thoughts and ideas into the world. Your colleagues may have a particular preference for your voice and speaking style.
For example, if your Throat Center has a defined channel to the Ajna Center, your statements come mainly from your mind. The connections to other human design centers influence the quality of your communication. If you have a connection to the heart center, you are naturally a born leader (taking into account other aspects of your Human Design Chart, of course).

Undefined throat center

If you have an undefined throat center, it can be difficult to see the benefits. It can feel like no one is really listening or you’re afraid to speak because you don’t know what to say. This can be particularly problematic in a work environment. The trick is to be passive and speak when we are asked to.

With an undefined throat, we have the flexibility to speak in many different voices depending on the topics being addressed. The different gates in our Human Design Chart also determine which topics we pick up on and which we don’t. We are also very good listeners and are good judges of when it is appropriate to say something.

Human Design Gate 12

Human Design Gate 45

Gate 45 – Collection: By Gate 45, you are like a leader who takes care of their tangible and intangible needs (e.g. education), skillfully distributes resources, and maximizes the wealth potential of a community with a combination of generosity and financial wisdom, helping others to succeed as well.

Human Design Gate 33

Human Design Gate 16

Goal 16 – Enthusiasm / Identification / Enthusiasm: Through goal 16, you constantly refine your talents and abilities through enthusiasm and dedication until you bring them to perfection (e.g. like a professional athlete).

Human Design Centers: The Self-Center / G-Center

Defined self-center

When you have a defined self-center, you inspire your teammates with your clear life direction and sense of purpose. You know who you are and what you want to achieve and rarely worry about your path in life. Your self-center acts as an inner compass that also helps you in your professional career. Your colleagues and employees recognize your stability and look to you for guidance.

However, there are also challenges that come with having a defined self-center. You may assume that your colleagues will automatically follow your lead. But it’s important to remember that everyone has their own goals and motives. It therefore makes sense to also consider the perspectives and needs of your team members and include them in decision-making processes.

Undefined self-center

If your self-center is undefined, you are very adaptable and your life can be very varied. However, it can be difficult to find a clear direction as you don’t have a fixed inner compass. You sometimes feel lost and are easily influenced by others if you are not careful. You should therefore pay attention to the environment you are in. If you don’t feel comfortable in a professional environment, you should look for a new environment where you can express yourself authentically.

Human Design Gate 7

Gate 7 – Strategy / The Army: Gate 7 gives you the ability to fundamentally influence the future by developing strategies and pointing out new paths and/or breaking up old structures. You always need the collective behind you in order to lead and guide effectively. Gate 7 is one of the leadership gates and belongs to the left hemisphere of the brain, the logical collective circuit. It is traditionally called “The Role of the Self” and is the wise counsel for the leader. The support for the one who will speak (gate 31).

Human Design Gate 1

Gate 1 – Creativity / Originality / Creation: Through Gate 1, creativity arises in quiet moments, expressing itself in unpredictable ways; although you want to be noticed by others, you strive for originality and not for material gain or external recognition.

Human Design Gate 13

Gate 13 – Mindfulness / communion with people: Through Gate 13 your openness and mindfulness, people confide their stories and secrets to you as you unconsciously preserve these experiences, making you a ‘chronicler of life’ who demonstrates a talent for evaluation in your profession.

Human Design Gate 25

Human Design Gate 46

Gate 46 – Striving forward / open-mindedness / reaching upwards: Gate 46 gives you an intuitive sense of timing and opportunity, you are always in the right place at the right time and make clever use of opportunities, while treating your body with care and attention and excelling in coordination at work.

Human Design Centers: The Heart Center

Defined heart center

As someone with a defined heart center, you are able to implement your will with determination and assertiveness. Your colleagues and employees appreciate your reliability and can rely on you. However, you may underestimate your own willpower and not fully utilize it.

As a defined heart, you have the ability to strengthen and inspire the willpower of people with an undefined heart center. You are also able to succeed in competitive situations as long as you stick to your personal strategy and authority.

Undefined heart center

If your heart center is undefined, your willpower is not always available to you. Even if you make an effort to strengthen your willpower, it does not always bring the desired success.

Negative feedback can hurt you deeply if you have an undefined heart. It’s important to keep promises and it’s good manners. But sometimes it can be hard to keep promises with an undefined heart. That’s why you should be careful about when you over-commit to others.

You don’t have to prove yourself through your work performance, neither for yourself nor for others. Your self-worth does not depend on your willpower. It’s more about listening to your authority and going your own way instead of frantically imposing your will.

The Human Design Gates of the Heart Center

Human Design Gate 21

Gate 21 – Control / Authority / Bite Through: You strive for independence through Gate 21 by seeking control over your own decisions as well as the ability to fulfill both your own needs and those of the community.

Human Design Gate 40

Gate 40 – Aloneness / Determination / Liberation: By Gate 40 you are working hard and efficiently on your own, needing a good work-life balance and time for yourself to maintain your performance and develop until you reach your full potential.

Human Design Gate 26

Gate 26 – Tactics / great taming power: Gate 26 gives you the ability to achieve maximum results with minimum effort and to influence others convincingly. This potential enables you to climb the hierarchy, but also harbors the danger of overestimating yourself.

Human Design Centers: The Sacred Center

Defined sacral center

As a person with a defined sacral center, you have enormous energy. You are the worker bee in the office and can carry others along with your energy. But to realize your full potential, you also need to feel joy at work. So it’s important to find an activity that brings you joy. After a fulfilling day at work, you should fall into bed in the evening completely exhausted so that you can fully recharge your batteries during your night’s sleep. That way, you can start the next morning with a full battery and full of joy.

The gates or channels that emanate from your sacral center determine where you focus your energy. Your sacral center reacts to what shows up in your environment with a yes or no. It is your gut feeling that tells you whether you want to accept this job or not, for example.

Undefined sacral center

As an undefined sacral center, you have to learn to handle your energy skilfully. Your energy comes and goes and is therefore not constantly available as with a defined center. This increases the risk of exhaustion or burnout. You therefore need allies to get your business and project ideas off the ground and compensate for this weakness. Your strength lies in delegating and optimizing.

Closely timed relaxation phases are more important for you than for defined sacral centers. You can allow yourself to rest and relax in between without having a guilty conscience. Beliefs such as “You have to work hard to be successful” or “No pain, no gain” are a real danger for you and you should distance yourself from them. As an undefined sacral type, you are either a manifestor, projector or reflector.

Human Design Centers: The Emotion Center

On a physical level, the emotional center is connected to various organs, such as the kidneys, lungs, pancreas, prostate and nervous system. This connection shows how closely our physical and emotional well-being are linked.

Defined emotional center

You have a constant connection to your own emotions. You are constantly on a certain emotional level, even if you are not aware of it. However, you should be aware that you are not your feelings, just as you are not your thoughts. You can mediate conflicts by not absorbing the emotions of the conflict parties and thus maintaining a healthy distance.

The emotion center contains the mechanics of what is called an emotional wave in human design. If you have an emotional authority, for example, you have to go through a wave in order to make the right decision. If you have a defined emotional center, your authority is automatically an emotional authority. By focusing on your emotional center and being aware of its impact on your body, you can improve your inner strength and resilience.

Undefined emotional center

If you have an undefined emotional center, you do not have the emotional wave described above. However, due to your openness, you are very empathic and often absorb the feelings of others. This can confuse you and make you think that you are to blame for the feelings of others. It is therefore important to know which feelings are your own and which belong to the people around you.

A job where you have to act as an arbitrator or judge is probably less suited to you. It can be difficult to distinguish between your own feelings and those of others and thus make a fair decision.

Human Design Centers: The Root Center

Defined root center

If you have a defined root, you are basically a grounded person. You get out of bed quite easily in the morning and have a high tolerance threshold for stress and pressure. Thanks to your root motor, you are ready for action.

However, there are two important things you should know about the motor function of your root. Firstly, this motor is not always switched on, but pulses on and off. Therefore, despite constant access, you are dependent on the correct timing. Secondly, you should recognize that your drive particularly addresses the channel that provides the definition of the root.

It is important to understand how your root motor works and which channels influence it. If you understand this, you can fully exploit your potential and use your strengths. Remember that your defined root provides you with a strong drive. Nevertheless, make sure that you take sufficient breaks to recover.

Undefined root center

If you have an undefined root, you are driven by the adrenalized energy of your work environment. Once you realize that this pressure is not coming from yourself, you can find clever ways to deal with it. It is important to understand that your undefined root makes you more prone to exhaustion and makes it difficult for you to start projects.

If you know that you are absorbing pressure from outside, you can take steps to avoid the pressure. It is important that you protect yourself and maintain your energy by taking targeted breaks and being mindful of your boundaries.

Human Design Gate 54

Human Design Centers: The Spleen Center

However, most of our everyday fears are not real threats. They stem from the past. Our ego clings to these fears, feeds them, keeps them alive and thus scares us. However, the spleen center also contains energy for spontaneity and intuition. 55 percent of us have a defined spleen center, 45 percent have an undefined spleen center. The spleen center is physically connected to the lymphatic system and the spleen.

Defined spleen center

You are meant to use your body awareness to be alert to what is happening around you. Your body is designed to react spontaneously to situations. By listening to your intuition and following your personal strategy and authority, you can have a vibrant, healthy body with a strong immune system.

However, you should not take your health for granted. If you have an undefined spleen, a defined spleen gives you security. If, on the other hand, you don’t listen to your intuition, strategy or authority, you run the risk of burning out.

Undefined spleen center

As a person with an undefined spleen, you probably have a more sensitive body and are more susceptible to illness. You pick up on fears from people around you more quickly and your spleen may even amplify these feelings. It is important to distinguish which fears and anxieties belong to you and which you take on from others so as not to become too burdened.

Sometimes it can be difficult to let go and let things or people go, but it’s important to detach yourself from this too so as not to become too burdened. While spontaneity is not necessarily your strong suit, make sure to listen to your intuition and personal strategy, especially in decision-making situations.
