Human Design 4/6 Profile in the working world

You have the Human Design 4/6 profile? Then I would like to briefly describe to you how your profile is composed. The profiles in Human Design result from the six lines of the basic structure of a hexagram from the I Ching, the Book of Changes (see figure below). In total, there are 12 combinations of these lines that make up the profile. In your Human Design Chart you will also find your two lines as a number behind the point on your conscious Sun (personality) and your unconscious Sun (design).

Characteristics of the lines

Some interesting character traits can be derived from your profile. You are aware of the properties of the first digit. The characteristics of the second digit are rather unconscious to you, especially if you have not yet reached the second half of life. The Human Design 4/6 profile also has interesting traits that you are sure to recognize in your profession.

In traditional human design, the six lines are assigned the characters shown in the figure. In terms of the profession, interesting conclusions can be drawn from these characteristics. Between the first three lines and the second three lines (looking from the bottom up), there exists a change in the way you learn in life. This is more about learning for life and not about how you learn in school, vocational school or university.

How you discover life

With the first three lines you have a learning style which is related to yourself. It is a self-referential way of learning. So if you have a profile with line 1, 2, or 3, you discover life in a self-referential way with respect to that line. With lines 4, 5, and 6, you have a learning style for life that connects you to those around you. Profiles can be composed of two self-related lines, two environment-related lines, or can be a mix of self-related and environment-related lines.

The Human Design 4/6 Profile

With your overview and your good comprehension skills, you have everything in view with your Human Design 4/6 profile and can recognize which changes occur where and what effects they can have. The two lines of your profile have opposing views. At the beginning of your professional life, your fourth line is interested in (business) relationships, while the sixth line likes to observe. Line 4 is nourished by partnerships; line 6 can be overwhelmed by all the contacts.

As your life progresses, you become better at integrating both lines and can target your skills where you identify need. At an advanced age (from about 50), you can be the leader of a very large team. You can even be a wise leader of an entire people. Despite this size, your leadership style is perceived as very personal. This makes you a role model to your entire environment.
