What about planets in Human Design
De “local agents” of the Program.

Preface
As the compiler of this overview I have used statements by Ra and Richard Rudd, to add some astronomical
and other information. Ra never really made much effort to educate
the planetary effects, other than in weather forecasts or readings.
While, in the contrary, planets play a key role in everyone's Design.
One of the reasons could be the popular and highly developed
astrological knowledge, which should mentally distract from the
essence of the Human Design System, which as a synthesis called
for a different approach to "old acquaintances". It is a synthesis of
that which we see, and that which we do not see. The Bodygraph
itself is in fact an illusion that is formed out of the interplay of this
duality behind all life. Thus, when we are looking at the impact of
the planets in the Bodygraph, we are looking at the patterns that
are formed in the cosmic Stardust. These patterns operate as an
overlay to the genetic material that we physically inherit from our
parents and ancestors. But more than that, these cosmic patterns
pass beyond our individual lifetimes and link us into an endlessly
incarnating genetic chain of human beings. Every planet, depending
where it is in our design, lends its flavor to our nature, at both the
conscious and the unconscious level. This is something we need to
take into consideration whenever we are looking at a planet,
whether it is in a center, a gate or a line.
As a tool, your Design offers you to get grips on your life. How to live with this constant stream of Cosmic
information, the Neutrino stream, living yourself as a unique being.
- Jan van den Berg -

The Planets
Some of the neutrinos that reach the Earth have pass through the Moon and/or one of the planets, taking on
characteristics unique to these heavenly objects. As these neutrinos pass through our bodies, they impart
characteristics to us. Some stages in our development, such as birth, make us extra sensitive for those
characteristics. That is why the positions at our birth of the Sun, Moon and Planets are important to know,
while it shows us which characteristics were presented at that moment.

2
The Rave I ‘Ching
the Rave I-Ching is a book that gives a brief description of the Gates, and a description of each of the 6 lines
for each Gate. Most lines have a demarcation, within which the particular characteristic takes place, called
“exalted “ and “detriment .” It is probably the most mystical aspect of “the Rave I ‘Ching”, where
certain planets are said to fix a line in one of those two extremes.
Ra always regretted not giving those demarcations a better name, while they easily gave the impression of
good and bad. Seeing from the outside-in, the detriment gives us this negative view on ourselves. However,
experienced from within, it is seen as a particular problem or theme in the evolution of consciousness of
humanity, which we eventually even will draw attention to in that particular capacity, initiating a change of
consciousness in the world. Each of us grows from our own characteristic DNA towards such an evolutionary
challenge.
Remember, “The Rave I ‘Ching” is written for the so called not-self. A collective manual to help attuning to
your unique self. To see. Eventually to see the “outside world” as yourself, and the “inside world” as the
Cosmos so to say. To realize your own Rave I ‘Ching by experience.

‘Death and Birth’ of certain Line-variations

Detriments and Exaltations affected by Pluto and Neptune.

“Two outer planets, Neptune and Pluto, have cycles that greatly exceed the span of a single human life.
Neptune's cycle around the wheel requires approximately 165 years, and Pluto's cycle is about 248 years.
Consequently, depending upon the position of these planets in their transit around the wheel, periodically,
the exalted or the detriment of certain lines that are fixed by these planets may be inactive, i.e. not present in
the world in the human population.
This means that, at any given time, these particular aspects of design may or may not be present, genetically
in the world and therefore, these qualities are not accessible to human beings until the planet re-activates
that gate, or its harmonic.

Something to keep in mind, also, is that the period of time that these detriments or exaltations remain
inactive after there are no people alive carrying these activations will be shortened somewhat by Pluto or
Neptune's transit to the harmonic gate within the channel. How much shorter is determined by the relative
positions of the harmonic gates within the wheel.

So as an attachment at the end, I have compiled a practical list of those gates, leaving out those gates affected
by Pluto or Neptune which don’t deactivate, because before that eventually should happen, the particular
planet has reached its harmonic gate. Showing these particular variations: → See attachment, page 29-30
- when the last activation happened, the last moment the planet affected natal birth with that line
variation, → the referred planet leaving the 6th line of that gate, or the 6th line of the harmonic gate,
for the last time.

- showing the moment that the reactivation took place for the first time again, realizing Retrograde
‘returns’ after that moment to previous gate(s) a number of times, → The first moment, the involved
planet affects that gate or its harmonic gate again.

In between taking into account a human life span of 115 years, I estimated when the aspect will be not active,
and when it becomes active again. Of course this life span will become larger in time, it’s just an indication.

Our Solar System, astronomically

To forget a few billions of solar systems for a moment, and to switch to our own solar system:
4.6 billion years ago in a spiral arm of the galaxy, a huge gas cloud of supernova remnants would have
led to the formation of the Sun.

Only a mere 1% of those remnants would have formed planets, of which Jupiter eventually consumed
70%. Due to the gravitational pull of the Sun, the heavier materials have been pulled in the direction of
the Sun. Logically spoken, planets such as Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars consist of solid material and
the other planets mainly of very light material (gas). Pluto is an exception. It should have come from
another system and be captured by ours. In addition, there are so-called dwarf planets, such as Ceres,
Sedna and Eris. And Pluto would also be one of them.
And they don't know what to do with Chiron (Kiron): an asteroid, a comet?

The Earth and the Sun

When that enormous gas cloud contracted,
a flat disk, the so-called Solar Orbit, would
have been created, as a result of which
practically all planets, and the Sun, are in
the same flat plane (yellow line).
Only Uranus and Neptune deviate
significantly from a slight slope, by 0.7 and 1.7%, respectively. The Earth's
axis is skewed ± 23.5 ° with respect to the Sun, which creates seasons in its
orbit around the Sun throughout the year. The Moon stabilizes that tilt
angle of the Earth's axis.

The Moon and the Sun

Viewed from Earth, the orbit of the Moon also makes a similar figure with
the Solar Orbit, where the intersection points seen from Earth are known
as the South and the North Moon Node. Actually, this is where the word
Ecliptic comes from because eclipses can be calculated and predicted if the
Moon will be near an intersection of those two orbits.
4
Sun and Earth in the Human Design System
Sun and Earth cannot be separated from each other. In the Wheel, Sun and
Earth are always exactly opposite each other. 70% of the neutrinos, say
stardust, are created by nuclear reactions in the Sun, which pass through
the Earth. The rest comes from Jupiter (4%) and the other stars.

The relationship between Sun and Earth is that of Energy and Matter,
where the neutrino current is grounded by our body, and may or may
not be translated into words and / or action.

The Sun in an open center

When the Personality Sun or Design Sun is in an undefined Center, it is as if this person's light is locked in
a room with all the shutters closed. This can pose all kinds of problems for such people. They don't have
consistent access to that 70% of who they are. They depend on others, or on planetary conditioning, to
define that gate. The temptation of the harmonic Gate in another, and what it represents, is enormous.
Design-Sun is the archetype of the father. So if you look at the Design-Sun in the Chart of yourself, you see
a genetic theme from your father, which your Design inherited from your father. In combination with the
characteristics of that Gate, the kind of center, an open or defined Center, and for example the profile,
ego manifestation or not, etc., this may lead to a certain problem.

The Personality Sun shows in what capacity your light shines into the world. If the Design Sun is in an open
Center, and the Personality Sun is in a defined Center, then the description at P-Earth will show how the
non-control of the natural nature is dealt with. In such a case, the position of that P-Sun is extremely relevant
in the Design, because in such a context all activities are experienced outwardly as if looking through a lens.

To be clear, as with all conditioned problems: Potentially, there is of course a talent to be able to mean
something to others. From a certain restraint and timing a lot can then be seen, recognized and shared!

Sun/Earth Fixations

Ra: “Whenever you see the Sun and the Earth affecting a certain line in the exaltation and in the detriment,
then this line has enormous impact. It is speaking for one of the basic structures that we have: Sun
above/Earth below.”
Lines with the Sun exalted and the Earth in detriment are:
8.2, 12.6, 14.6, 15.2, 20.3, 23.4, 27.1, 29.5, 31.1, 38.3, 40.6, and 48.4.
There is one line with the Earth exalted and the Sun in detriment: 9.3.

Sun in Exaltation: Natural authority; evident leadership; equanimity, a certain dignity and unselfishness;
ordering as a process, not as a problem; reason itself.

Sun in Detriment: Abuse of Influence; the vanity of a personality; the attack is the best defense; fanaticism;
makes molehills into mountains.

Sun in the "Weather Forecast": Shed light on the theme that the Program considers important for our
survival.
5
De Earth in numbers
More than 70% of the surface of the Earth is water,
which is why it owes its name to the blue planet. Incidentally,
only 0.8% of this consists of readily available fresh water. A
real challenge in the future!
The existence of "life" with its millions of species of
organisms still appears to be unique to Earth, where that
same biosphere evolved oxygen and a protective ozone layer.
The atmosphere around the Earth is about 70 km thick, and
consists of 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen.
The outer crust of the earth consists of 12 plates that are
in motion, and float, as it were, on a lower layer that is in
motion due to the exchange of cold and heat. That causes
outward volcanism and mountain formation.
Together with a less hardened inner shell, a liquid outer
core and a solid inner core, the Earth has an average
diameter of 12,700 km, and a circumference of ± 40,000 km.

The Earth in Human Design

The Earth is about grounding, the ground of your existence, how we
ground the energy of the Sun. For the Personality Earth it is about finding
balance within oneself, integrating your personality within yourself,
actually attuning to your internal authority or individual frequency.
When Personality Earth is in an undefined center, the person concerned
only finds balance through others, where the harmonic gate and its quality
will play a crucial role. A consistent factor can then possibly be found in the
position of the Design Earth as far as it is in a defined center.
Apart from that, the two Earth positions can of course also cause the
necessary troubles in mutual relationship.

Design Earth refers to the archetype of the mother, and to the genetic material that you have received from
your mother. The location of Design Earth shows how we get a grip on the world of form. This is about
stability. The more grounded we are, the more stable we are no matter what. In this sense, the Mother is the
backbone of our stability. Design-Earth is about getting a grip on the world of form. And as said, a D-Earth in a
defined or open Center is a big difference when it comes to where, how, and when to experience stability.
And so again: How do you deal with that ...

Earth in Exaltation: The daydreamer; pacification of energy; obscurity to influence; accurate;

inappropriate action is censured; foresee; survival through suffering; self-control

Earth in Detriment: Exaggerated self-discipline; contrived; resistance to restructuring; failed ambition;

intolerance for lesser mortals; selfish alliance; self-consciousness in the extreme;
disastrous urge to cut one’s losses

Earth in the "Weather Forecast": Indicates how the Program's survival theme is likely to succeed.

De Moon
The Moon, as a satellite, is relatively large in relation to the Earth. The distance to Earth doesn't
even seem that spectacular: 365,000-405,000 kilometers.
The degree to which the Sun illuminates the Moon determines the phases:

New → Waxing Crescent → First Quarter → Waxing Gibbous → Full → Waning Gibbous → Third Quarter → Waning Crescent

The Moon is always turned in the same direction to the Earth

(Synchronic rotation), because its rotation lasts as long as a
complete revolution around the Earth. The rotation itself takes an
average of 27.3 days, however, because of the rotation of the Earth
itself, it takes an extra to come to the same point as seen from
Earth, making 29.5 days. The influence that Earth and Moon exert Synchronic <> not synchronic
on each other, makes them in astrophysics to be seen as a double planet.
Without the Moon, there would be no life on Earth as we know it. Something as simple as standing
upright, but also the tides such as ebb and flow, arise from that force field of that "double planet".
It even affects the human state of mind (full moon and romance, more full moon deliveries, impact on
psychiatric patients). Besides, moon dust appears to smell like gunpowder.

The Moon may have arisen from a collision between the Earth and the planet Theia, in which the
scorching heat partially fused Theia with the Earth, but in which event also a lump of liquid lava would
have been flung into the Cosmos, which contracted into a gigantic drop, to gradually solidify into the
shape of the Moon.

Lunar calendars
They were and are used in connection with planting and
sowing, starting or finishing something new, or determining
Easter (on the Sunday after the first full Moon in Spring).
But the Islamic calendar is also based on the Moon. Every
month has 29 or 30 days there, and a year there therefore
lasts ± 354 days).
The Jewish and Chinese calendar also have months of 29 and
30 days, but the 11 remaining days are compensated with a
leap month, an adjustment to the solar year, which is literally
out of the question in Islam. Celebrations such as Ramadan,
the Sugar Feast, or the Feast of Sacrifice are therefore shifted
every year for a week and a half.
7
 It just shows how important the Moon is in Islamic thought. "The Red Cross" is the
life-saving "Crescent", and the symbol of Islam is the five-pointed star with the Moon.
An essential difference in cultural perspective from the Western world.

The Moon in Human Design

The Moon is our drive, our motive force, making its way through each Gate at
just under two hours per line. Where the Moon is in your Chart, that is what
drives you. The Moon intrigues, pushes, focuses, from dark to light, where is
the light and what is involved. The path we take through material life can be
inferred from the Lunar Nodes of the Moon. In that capacity, the Moon Nodes
condition our Geometry. It is also the reflected light that others see in your life.
(In my time in astrology, while trying to guess the sign of the Sun in someone's
horoscope, I often guessed the zodiac sign where the Moon was in. JvdB)

In a Chart
A Design Moon in Gate 41, from an undefined Root Center, makes someone long for new experiences out
of nowhere, usually activated by someone else or by the Planetary Program. Given the power of the Moon
as a drive, such not-self conditioning can easily lead to obsessions and the corresponding misery that ensues.

On the other hand: a Personality Moon in for example Gate 16.1, with an activation in Gate 48, so defined
centers, and giving a Manifestor through a connection with the Ego Center via Channel 44-26, such a position
makes itself heard. However Gate 16.1: (Self-) Deception, Delusion, in combination with the Moon, gives a
lot of fantasy, and with a strong ego it gives a child, among other things, that can lie as if it were printed.
Moreover, growing up, as a logical gate they will probably be pushed more and more to prove what they
claim.

DreamRave
The Moon conditions sleeping people and all other life on Earth. It gives people their deepest connection with
the totality. It is what moves us. Mystically we have a Moon body, so to speak.

Furthermore, reincarnation would be inspired by the phases of the Moon. The Moon guarantees evolution, by
bringing the inner nature in us to the surface, as it were, to let it do its thing.

The Moon and the I ‘Ching

The Moon is seen in the I'Ching as the eldest daughter, who bears responsibility towards both the Father
(Sun) and Mother (Earth). The Moon takes over from Father Sun, as the source of light, in being a driving
force that always will be a focus on what the Sun points to. Making gold out of silver like the alchemists
should say. On the other hand, the Moon enables Mother Earth's task, by pushing and moving the Form.

Moon in Exaltation: Adaptability; time is everything; practical instinct: adheres to what brings success; always
caring towards others; avoiding conflict for the sake of protection

Moon in Detriment: Hypersensitivity, a bit of a martyr complex; feeling somewhat lost (sitting in "the dark");
allow inferior forces around them; superficial facial expressions, superficial self-assurance

Moon in the "Weather Forecast": The Pusher, adjusts what you should focus on during the day.

8
Mercury
Observations of this planet go back thousands of years. Mercury orbits the
Sun for 88 days. After 2 orbits, Mercury has rotated 3 times around its own
axis. The temperature on the surface varies between -173 ° C to + 429 ° C.
His relatively rapid circulation would have led the Greeks and the
Babylonians to associate him with Hermes (resp. Nabu), the messenger of
the Gods.

Mercury in Human Design

Mercury is about communication, and what seeks to communicate from
within. Metaphorically, it is "the ear of the Sun, because it is the planet that
is closest. In the tradition of Prometheus, Loki, etc., Mercury brings the
knowledge of the Gods to humanity. The place of Mercury in the Bodygraph
therefore shows what is ready for you to contribute.

“Programming and ‘the personality crystal’

At the moment of birth, and then counting back 88 ° (88-89 days), an unconscious Design-Mercury fixes in
us (Design-Mercury), after which Mercury, with an orbit of 88 days (!), Moves from that moment in the
construction phase of the Neocortex, which in that context generates consciousness (self-reflection), → the
Personality-Mercury. The conscious Personality Mercury represents what you want to share as such with the
other in your life. The God of our mental world, so to speak, who mirrors the Maia for each of us in our own
way.
Design Mercury
To make it a bit more specific: A (non-conscious) Design Mercury, in a defined center, which is connected to
the Throat Center, can make comments, that the person concerned does not know where they come from
('Who makes me say that ”). Or seen differently, making a statement as a stimulus for the consciousness to
wonder why it came out ... A Freudian slip, so to speak.
On the other hand, if the activation is in an open center, with no connection to the Throat Center, then you
can only hope that someone else will let that out. A disability, which causes someone to walk away from a
conversation, for example, knowing that there was something he/she wanted to say but did not, and not
knowing what he/she wanted to say.
Design Mercury in for example Gate 46 (“Love for the body”), in an undefined G-Center, communicates from
there, with the body, unconsciously, and as such must be present in the right place and time: perhaps an
athlete.

Personality Mercury
For example, with a P-Mercury in Gate 34, powerful language should be used deliberately. But yes, in an
undefined center no consistency in that regard.

Mercury in Exaltation: Mental confidence; Intellectual perfection; communicative talent; Mental functions
enrich being alone.

Mercury in Detriment: Restless and somewhat agitated; thinks it knows best; the “I told you so…” mentality;
boredom; self-deception, misfortune.

Mercury in the "Weather Forecast": shows the theme being discussed.

9
Venus
After the Moon, Venus is the second brightest natural object in the
night sky to be seen with the naked eye, and in rare occasions even in
broad daylight, especially when the Sun is low on the horizon or
setting. Sometimes even so bright that
in 1716 Londoners raised the alarm.
With the invention of the telescope, the reach of another similar physical world began to settle in human
consciousness, with the dense cloud cover giving fiction writers a free hand to give free rein to their
imaginations. However, with 96% carbon dioxide and a high air pressure in the atmosphere, that
comparison later turned out to be a bit too premature.

Like Mercury, Venus has no moons around it. It rotates in the opposite
direction on its own axis in 243 Earth days, which is even longer than its
orbit around the Sun, 224.7 days.
Due to the good visibility at night, Venus has always played an important
role, all the more so because seen from Earth Venus sometimes disappears
from view to reappear later. Which of course feeds all kinds of
mythological and astrological human analogies and metaphors. In Sumeria,
because of the erratic orbit of Venus seen from the earth, and the
character of Inanna. For the Maya, Venus was the third major celestial
body after the Sun and Moon, worshiped as the "eye" and contented with
ritual mass executions upon its emergence. Friday, Venus Day, is still the
day of punishment and execution in the Islamic world. In addition to love,
art and beauty, there is apparently also a dark side to her nature: Venus as an executioner.

Venus in Human Design

Morality is much more decisive than legislation

Venus brings out certain values in ourselves, imposes them on
us, and let us stand for it: "How do we treat each other, and the
world around us". Venus is the one who determines right and
10
wrong in moral questions and issues that concern ourselves. If you don't act with clear morals,
and if those around you don't act with clear morals, Venus can be harsh in retaliation.

11
The moral values that Venus stands for become laws in Jupiter
And every legal judgment that comes out of that is carried out through Saturn. In other words: In the course
of time, customs, habits and habituation give rise to laws: that is the relationship between Venus and Jupiter.
Venus is where your morals are. In this sense, Venus is also the beating heart of your prejudices, the hard core
of your deceit, your cunning, your hypocrisy, not to mention your cruelty. Once morality has been worked out
correctly, it can be established as law. It may be clear now why to see Venus also as the executioner.
Look carefully at the positions of both Venus in your Chart: Those Norms and Values are the foundation of
your social world!

Analyzing Venus in a chart

A Design Venus, in a defined Center, is always active, manifesting itself unconsciously, while its value is
inherited.
In contrast, a Personality Venus, in an undefined Center, can be a true Tantalus torment: You can stand for
something, and the next moment all uncertainty strikes. In a conscious sense, such a mechanism can never
express real appreciation, because what do you stand for, and in all frustration / bitterness / anger /
disappointment people will always fit in, and adapt themselves so, as not to be judged on that inconsistency.
And of course here too, you learn to deal better with so-called "weaknesses" in your individual development,
increasingly accepting from the understanding of why and how. After all, everything revolves around learning
how to correctly handle your type, design, and its strategy.

Venus <> Mars

Venus represents feminine power. Earth is the mother. The Moon is the oldest daughter, Venus is the
youngest daughter. As the youngest, she is the worldly daughter who does not become entangled in the
eldest daughter's responsibilities to perpetuate the Mother's traditions. It is the youngest daughter who
brings about rebellion and change of values, developed through sensation. Thus, in the prevailing image of
Mars and Venus as the masculine and feminine archetypes, Venus appears to be actually the fiery one, while
on the other hand Mars would in principle be the coolness itself.

Me Too
4000 years ago roles of men and women were already in the spotlight. At the time as a change from a
Matriarchal to a Patriarchal society. Homer, as the propagandist of the patriarchal, described this in the story
of Ulysses and Penelope: In matriarchal society, Penelope had a partner for a year, after which the man was
slaughtered, to be replaced by the next man for a year, and so on. Until a certain Ulysses ("the discoverer")
went to war (!) at the end of his year, preventing in that way to be killed, what made Penelope ("the weaver",
"the silent worker") face the fait accompli, to discontinue the matriarchal tradition.

Venus in Exaltation: The gift of penetrating the inner meaning; beauty and wonder; the muse; harmony
between established values and ideals; aesthetic sensitivity; attracting loyalty; avoiding direct conflict; the
ability to choose the best partner; collaboration with others; losing vigilance; conditions are unacceptable

Venus in Detriment: dissatisfaction with the contribution of others; harmony as a weapon; feelings of
superiority; being considerate losing; anything but aesthetic; pessimism

Venus in the "Weather Forecast": Delivers the headlines, so to speak.

12
Mars, seen from astronomy
Mars is currently in the spotlight when it comes to space travel.
Mars has two moons: Deimos (→ Panic) and Phobos (→ Fear).
The moons are 10 to 20 km in size and are potato shaped.
Mars is similar to Earth in several ways: 4 seasons, two polar
caps, length of the day, dried-up riverbeds, volcanoes and deserts.
There is hardly any oxygen. The atmosphere on Mars is very thin,
allowing meteorites to strike like unhindered projectiles.
The core of Mars consists of solid iron and nickel and has a
diameter of 2800 km, with a crust about 50 km thick. Due to the
lack of liquid iron, there is no magnetism on Mars.
The name Mars comes from the Roman God of War. The average distance from the Sun is 230 million km. In
comparison: The distance Earth-Sun is 150 million km. The rotation time (one full round) is 24 hours, 39
minutes, 35 seconds (<> Earth 23 hours, 56 minutes, 4.1 seconds). The orbit around the Sun takes 687 days
(Earth 365 days). So the Cycle from Mars takes roughly two Earth years.

Maximum daytime temperature is +25° C <> Earth: +51° C.

Minimum night temperature is -130° C <> Earth: -58° C.
The diameter of Mars is: 6.790 km <> Earth: 12.756 km

Mars in Human Design

In the triumvirate of Sun the Father, and Mercury the eldest son,
Mars is the youngest son, free from responsibilities. In that context
it is misleading to see Mars merely as decisiveness. Once Mars has
started moving it is indeed unstoppable, but basically Mars is lazy, and without necessity it won't do
anything about a problem until it gets triggered, then build momentum in no time, to get to work irresistibly.
At the expense of consciousness: Like an adolescent, immature, touching, but sometimes also very violent,
overreacting (“Oh, what a pity, now it's broken”). Not from the personality, but through the type of energy.
Besides, it would be grossly failing to just call Mars immature, for it reaches much, much deeper into the
human psyche. Look where your P-Mars is at the Line of that Gate, because the integration of that line in
your life plays a key role.
As Ra puts it, “Mars is special only when you are special. Mars is only mutative if you are mutative.
And it is Mars that will literally lead your awareness program. ”

For example:
Design Mars in Gate 4, in an undefined Ajna: A lazy mind. But nevertheless, once you have started, you have
the ability to think logically. But watch out: once Mars thinks it has the answer, it's more important than
whether it's actually right or not.
A conscious Mars also has its pro and con: for example, a P-Mars in Gate 18.5, in a defined Spleen Center,
actually needs help. (Port 18 basically refers to the parents.) But then again, Mars is lazy, and won't do
anything about the problem until it is turned on. And then suddenly it becomes someone who is always
looking for someone to help him, and then he goes so about finding someone, not about the help itself!
Mars is unavoidable, and its effect is reflected in 61 of the 64 Gates, on either side of the Line margins,
at 94 so-called Detriments, and at 29 Exaltations. Only Gates 7, 8, and 20 are genetically immune from its
influence.

13
Mars in Exaltation: Courage, persistent; adamantly energetic; unlimited hopeful; blind luck; eternal child;

Mars in Detriment: Hurry, impatient; recklessly taking risks; aggressive, violently reacting; demanding
attention; stiff-neckedness; has no restrictions; dictatorial, selfish

Mars in the "Weather Forecast": Mars refers to what changes that day.

Jupiter
Jupiter can be seen with the naked eye and has been seen since
prehistoric times. However, we know the first recorded observations
of the Babylonians, dating from ± 800 BC. It is the largest planet in the
solar system, albeit a Gas Giant. Its diameter is 1/10 of the Sun, and its
magnetic influence reaches as far as Saturn 750-800 million kilometers
away, a distance 5 times that between the Earth and the Sun. It is more
than likely that it is the oldest planet in our solar system. Jupiter's orbits
the Sun for 11.86 years. Although Gan De, a Chinese astronomer, is said
to have discovered one of Jupiter's moons with the naked eye, it was
Galileo Galileo in 1610, who discovered the 4 largest moons of Jupiter:
Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. 4 years later Simon Marius gave
them their name. It’s not a coincidence that the internet site of Ra is Jupiter with its “swirling clouds”
called “Jovian Archive”. These 4 moons play an important role in the
background of Human Design (where in Mythology Jupiter had a lover relation with Mnemosyne (memory).

Io
Europa
Ganymede
Callisto

Jupiter and mythology

The Chinese zodiac with a different animal for each year, refers
with its 12 animals to that cycle of Jupiter. And the Babylonians,
where Jupiter was called Marduk, also used Jupiter's 12-year orbit
along the Ecliptic to define the constellations of their zodiac: Aries,
Taurus, Gemini, etc. To the Romans he was called "Iuppiter Stella",
the heavenly god, and was the principal deity on the Roman Pantheon, the counterpart of the Greek Zeus.
The relationship between Zeus (Jupiter) and his father Kronos (Saturn) is to find under → Saturn.

Jupiter in Human Design

Jupiter represents your own legislature. Wherever Jupiter is in your Chart,
these are the laws that you must obey in your life. If you stick to your law,
you will feel fine, you are supposedly protected by that law. Following the
law that Jupiter stands for in your Chart will ultimately bring you reward.
Jupiter has two sides. He can have you thrown into hell (from Saturn), or he
can greatly enrich you spiritually or materially, depending on whether you
respect his law or not. Experiencing yourself is of course the key. Following
S&A gradually clarifies how that law works. While the cycle of Saturn affects
our inner development, the cycle of Jupiter affects our outer development,
determining our relationship with others and with the totality. Every cycle of ± 12 years he re-evaluates that
law, preparing for the next phase of life.
Jupiter is the great legislator. Jupiter is like the Biblical Moses, a so-called hierophant: he chisels the
developed aesthetically-based norms and values of Venus into stone. And whenever Jupiter creates a
definition in a Chart, it points to a time of possible transformation and the beginning of a new process.
All the more striking when an eventual activation bridges a Split definition, or makes a connection with
the Sacral or Throat Center in a Projector or Reflector Chart.

15
So where Jupiter is in your Chart, the law is outlined that you must obey.
For example, Jupiter in the 37th Gate allows you to offer your friendship to others, in the form that is
clarified by line, and of course taking into account the emotional wave of the Solar Plexus Center.

Analyzing Jupiter in a Chart

A Personality Jupiter in Gate 26, in a defined Ego Center; the Gate of the Egoist, the Trickster.
The 3rd Line is called “Influence”: the ability to create followers and support, but on the basis of attractive
conditions and reasonableness. This is the potential Design of a popular legislator, with an Ego ability that
transforms, matures, with each new life cycle. After all, it is also a line with an intro.

All lines in “the Rave I Ching” with a sort of intro have to do with a development phase,
a maturing, before the line effect can be expressed.
So preparation in this case. Thus, such a person will over time develop or lose this talent of "attracting
supporters" if he does not recognize the potential challenges in others. Ra had his Design-Jupiter in Gate
26.1, and although he was known as an idiot in Ibiza, he was very prepared and educated.

On the other hand, a Design Jupiter in Gate 10.1, in an undefined G-Center, requires studying behavior
and how the responding to proposed legislation. In addition, a dormant gate is dependent on Program
transitions or others. In this case, a transition across the 34, or the 20, or the 57, will produce very
different transformation themes.
- A Jupiter transition over Gate 20 will give a new way of being in the world, on
the basis of new self-made legislation.
- A Jupiter transition over Gate 34 provides in-depth exploration leading to new
ones beliefs, to live a new life based on new legislation.
- A Jupiter transition over Gate 57 may bring new behavior through a clarified intuition.
So people with a Jupiter in 10 should always listen to their behavior in the world, attuning themselves to
their environment in order to convey their message to the community. Creating your own behavior
according to the opportunity that presents itself. Obeying that law is successful.

Jupiter in exaltation: Dedication and service; cooperative; attention to the larger framework; maturity;
progressive; generous; higher principles; tolerate

Jupiter in Detriment: The Patriarch; vanity; cannot cope with limitations; nothing more to learn; unwavering
enthusiasm; reduced potential; hypochondriac

Jupiter in the "Weather Forecast": Show which rules apply that day, the Program as legislator.

Saturn
Saturn radiates more energy than it receives from the Sun. Through its
rapid rotation, this planet is more oblate than average at the poles. The
atmosphere consists of 96% hydrogen and a further 3% helium. Due to
the enormous pressure and the very cold temperature (-133 ° C), liquid
and gaseous form are mixed without any clear distinction. As a result,
there is not even a clear planet surface.

Most famous of Saturn are 7 rings around the planet, consisting of ice and meteorite dust particles.
The rings are only 20 meters (!) Thick, and show themselves as plates. Once every 15 years we look at
the side of those rings from Earth and it seems to have almost disappeared. The outer ring even
appears to have a diameter of 13 million km, or 200 times the diameter of the planet itself!
Saturn has about 60 moons around, to say, that more than half don’t reach the 10 km diameter.

Mythology
There is a strong connection between Saturn and the Earth when it comes to matter, including in the area
of the physical body. Saturn is about physical fear and physical death.
In mythology, Kronos (Saturn) devoured his newborn sons because of a prophecy, that one of his sons would
overthrow him as ruler (fear and death). However, the mother of Zeus (= Jupiter), Ops (= Mother Earth), gave
Kronos a stone wrapped in cloth, instead of her newborn child. In doing so, she saved this child, which meant
the loss of Saturn's hegemony.
It seems to give an analogy to the fact that in earlier times the planet Saturn 'consumed' all kinds of matter. So
much so that Earth (his wife) would never have had a right to exist if she had not "saved" Jupiter. Scientifically,
it is assumed that the rapidly growing Jupiter migrated inwards, so between the Sun and Saturn. Theorists call
this the “grand tack hypothesis”. With that, the Earth (Ops) would eventually have managed to form and
maintain itself. Jupiter has ruled Olympus ever since, as the god of the gods.
The Greeks did not realize physical death (Saturn) as we deal with it. The Romans did, with the Hellenes as
"transition area". Saturn therefore "fled" to Italy (Rome). Think of the Saturnalia in Rome, the 6-day main
festival (December 17-23), festivities of "careless well-being", similar to carnival (Carne-vale) literally "the
meat is worth it". A reversal ritual, in which, for example, the worldly government hands over the key of
the city to ‘Prince Carnival’.

It's all about accepting the Form Principle (the human, the aura, Gate 15), so something different than
the bio-form (the body, Gate 46). A human psychological struggle, micro/macro etc.

Ra: “As the Passenger went beyond the Vehicle's potential, we got that whole movement
of people wanting to get out of their bodies, starting with Buddha. That whole spiritual
movement of "Let me out." All focus on the ascent of essence and spirit: Muhammad
floats to the top of the dome to meet Gabriel, and Joshua ascending the ladder, express
the deeper theme of 'Save me from form', out of the vehicle, the process. Deep down is
the conflict between the Passenger and his Vehicle.
If you identify yourself with the Vehicle you want to get out. The Program knows that by
the way. That is why death is built in, so in the end we all get out. ”

17
 Saturn in Human Design
Saturn punishes or does not punish. Where Saturn is,
both, on the Personality side and the Design side, you
will find the theme of how that punishment is done. If
you violate your own law as directed by Jupiter, Jupiter
won’t punish. Saturn will. And Saturn is like a punishing
parent, so no extreme punishments.
On the other hand, Jupiter can reward you, but Saturn
can also make you feel good inside, life feels good. No
greater reward than to be free from Saturn, if you live
correctly. In this context, in The Netherlands we have this festivity of Saint Nicholas (Jupiter, December 5 th,
halfway through the sign of Sagittarius), judging if the children (and adults) have been obedient and kind in
the past year, with his servant ‘Black Piet’ (Saturn, December 6 th, the beginning of the transition to the sign
of Capricorn) who may give presents if Saint Nicholas says so, or gives punishment. So the same mechanism
is at play there. By the way: in times of “Black Lives matter” it became a soot-sweep Piet.
Saturn shows what your price is that you pay for a not-self life.
Development of consciousness
Saturn is known in Human Design as characteristic of our old 7-centered world view. It is the old Solar System
of which Saturn was the outermost planet. Tradition, law, top-down authority, the concrete matter, status,
and worldly power were then the keywords for this "old evildoer". Since 1781 we became aware of Uranus,
and then Neptune (1871), and Pluto (1930). So since 1781 there has been an expansion of consciousness in
humans, which would be reflected in a Bodygraph with 9 Centers, in the awareness of a life cycle of 84 years
(Uranus). The French Revolution turned against Saturn's feudal features. People wanted authority over their
own lives. Individuality .
Analyzing Saturn in a chart
Saturn, our shadow. It would be a very old Yin energy. It is the place where difficulties in our lives will surface,
and as such is a vulnerable place in your Design. Until you live as yourself. Then you don't have to fear to be
‘consumed’ by Saturn.
Only a Saturn in a defined center will respond directly from within. If the Gate of Saturn's influence is in an
undefined center, then there is no natural Saturnian presence in that form, which will just emerge when
conditioned by outside forces, possibly making the previously incurred "punishment" be expressed. This
through a harmonic transit (other side of the Channel) from the Program, or by someone else, or by
someone who happens to have that center defined.

So, for example, if Saturn is in Gate 49 and you have gone against the law that Jupiter dictates, then in that
situation you will face rejection and even divorce. That theme will therefore always arise in your life, both
consciously and unconsciously.
→ Let’s say Personality Saturn in Gate 4.6 (“Excess”) is actually about learning to deal with self-control. In the
same Chart, for a Design Saturn in an undefined Center in Gate 7.3 (“The Anarchist), it is someone who rejects
any order set by someone else. However, here too that person encounters his quality and its limitations only
through others or a transition; others evoke this in him, which turns into an unpleasant encounter, if the law
has been evaded in an earlier phase. Consequence: A lack of inspiration (<> Gate 63), and a lack of influence
(<> Gate 31).

Saturnus in Exaltation: Concentration, discipline; careful consideration; the simplest approach, basic
principles; specific
Saturnus in Detriment: Underestimate and overestimate your own capabilities; the egoist; censorship;
selective memory; fear of incalculable consequences
Saturnus in the "Weather Forecast": Saturn shows the limitation of that day, or something that needs to be
handled with care.
18
Uranus
Uranus is the odd one out here. 2.5 billion years ago, a major event would have taken place,
which, incidentally, may also have led to Pluto ending up on the outside of our solar system,
and it also created most of Uranus' moons.
Uranus was so hit by something that it landed on its side. Therefore, Uranus has a magnetic
field that swings through the solar system in large loops. If you could see Uranus's magnetic
field as light, you would never be able to see another star in the sky.
It completely surrounds us. It is also the first planet that we cannot see with the naked eye,
and because of its distance, less is known than for example about Saturn.
So far 27 moons have been observed, most of them named after Shakespearean figures. There are also 13
rings around Uranus.

Another thing is, that since Uranus was discovered on March 13,
1781, 10:30 pm, in Bath Somerset, UK, the quality of life on this
planet for our species has increased at an astonishing rate.

Uranus in the mythology

Ouranos (Uranus: Father Sky) is the son and husband of Gaia,
Mother Earth. They are the oldest pair of gods, belonging to the so
called primordial deities, and they are responsible for the creation of
many mythological figures. Fearing for his offspring, Ouranos
banished the Cyclopes, the Titans and the Hecatoncheirs to Tartarus (say the worst part of the underworld,
where Hades holds sway). Finally, with the help of his own wife Gaia, he is castrated with a
sickle by his son, the Titan Kronos/Saturn (the God of agriculture). His genitals fall into the sea and from
the seed Aphrodite (Venus) is born. From Ouranos' castration, Kronos and his sister and wife Rhea rule the
world until Kronos in turn has to make way for his son Zeus (Jupiter), again at the hands of the wife.
See the analogy with the start of strategic mind and agriculture (Saturn), and norms and values (Venus).

The redlines are love-relations: See the relation between Jupiter and Mnemosyne
(Memory), which is related to human consciousness.

19
Uranus in Human Design
Light can only come from darkness. It's the whole secret of form. It's the
nature of the big bang. Light emerges from the darkness within us. The
moment our form is correct, the light is there. Every time you encounter
an obstacle, it gives you a chance for light. Anytime something gets in the
way of your expectation, there is a chance of light. If you have lost track of
yourself, look at the qualities of your Personality Uranus in your Chart, to
get back to your base, your form, individuality.

In a Chart, Uranus will focus his hallmark of originality and unusual order
(in Saturnian thinking: his preference for chaos and disorder) on the theme
of a particular Gate. He always gives an original quality to his placements in
the design. The Uranus 'dance' with 'chaos' (mythologically speaking of its father) lasts up to and near the
Uranus Opposition, the midlife point, comparable to inhalation, after which the 'chaos' is put in order, as
a form of exhale. Creating form from chaos is what Uranus is all about. Uranus needs disorder as a muse.
He will distance himself from the rules, put himself outside of them. This is not to be confused with
rebellion. In fact, it is Uranus that finds Saturn both a rebel and a dull slave to creating and maintaining
order.

Analyzing Uranus in a bodygraph

D-Uranus in Gate 12.2 (“Clearing, rigorously getting rid of negative influences”), in a defined Throat Center:
potentially a connection with Gate 22 can always release emotional energy, if Gate 12 is in the mood for it.
However, in the first half of life with a preference for a lack of clarity, this can sometimes lead to a chaotic
interaction with people on a social level. Add to that a P-Uranus in Gate 15.1 (Modesty) in an undefined
G-Center, which will take him further from home, as he will be totally captivated by conditioning. This is
someone who withdraws for the first half of life and is alone, not knowing how and when to interact with
others. Uranus always brings the unusual into the Gate where it resides. Here that unusual takes place in
social life.

Of all the planets, Uranus is closest to us in spirit and process. The 84-year cycle of Uranus has become
a universally achievable lifespan. Humanity as a whole has not yet adapted to that new cycle. Evolution
takes time. Culturally, we still pay lip service to the old 29-year Saturnian cycle.
With the discovery of Uranus in 1781, humanity turned from thousands of years living a 7-centered
consciousness, into a 9-centered body challenge: Homo Sapiens in Transitus. From rat-race to live your
unique self.

Uranus in exaltation: Purely inventive; outsider mentality; a genius; the ability to discover; the ability to
transform interaction

Uranus in detriment: Arrogance; eccentricity; dissatisfaction; inappropriate; the facade of innocence;

undermining actions

Uranus in the "Weather Forecast": Provides the distraction of what matters.

20
Neptune
In 2009 Neptune completed its first 165-year orbit since its discovery in
September 23, 1846 (Greenwich, Kent, UK) in 1846. It took a while for
Neptune to be recognized as a planet, and it was the first planet
located through mathematical calculations. Its mantle of rock, water,
ammonia and methane gives the planet its bright blue color, and
outwardly that composition becomes more and more fluid to
gradually pass into the atmosphere. Enormous wind speeds were
measured on the planet. And again a number of rings, but these seem
less stable, and some may even disappear in the foreseeable future.

Neptune and mythology

Actually, Neptune was the god of waves and running water. However, the Romans
regularly mirrored the bygone rich Greek culture, which had a navigational characteristic
for them, as a result of which Neptune was regarded from around 400 BC as God of the
Sea (but also as the God of horse and rider, of the chariot games). The oceanic expanse
and vagueness eventually prevailed. By the way: The name
Oceanus was even suggested shortly after its discovery as a
planet. The “totality” is reflected in that, reminding it’s the
outermost planet of the ecliptic, where Pluto was captured,
and has its own orbital plane, with an axial tilt of 120 ° (see
"Pluto"). Seeing over the ocean you can’t see where it ends.
In astrology he/she is associated with the collective consciousness, idealism,
projections, illusions and vagueness on the road to universal truths. Compared to
astrology, in Human Design that ocean has a much greater Yin-quality. To be seen as a feminine force.

Neptune in Human Design

Neptune obscures. Neptune eagerly lets you use that good bottle of
whiskey or other expanding drugs. Anything to try to get through that
veil. Anything to try to find out what is there. You will never find out.
Neptune tickles our imaginations, but at the same time leaves us no
choice but to surrender to the greater mystery. And if we can't let go
of the "why" and "how" and keep wondering what Neptune brings,
then all the failure and misery in the world is just around the corner,
lost as we get lost in the illusions and cloudiness of its depth. Neptune
goes beyond the human capacity of consciousness, but at the same
time is seen as the one who gives direction in the human evolutionary
process, corresponding to the energy of the "Cross of the Sphinx" in
the G-Center. Just as the Monopole (Gate 2) holds everything
together in the illusion that we live separately from each other, and
you maneuver through life with that illusion, so Neptune determines our progress. The moment you have a
problem with that, you have a problem.

The essence of the not-self can be seen where Neptune is in our Chart. Just as Pluto represents the truth of
our true self, Neptune reveals our deepest disillusions. Whatever gate or gates Neptune activates in your
Design, you think it is your truth. Ironically, most people can never experience their real truth in Pluto,
because it is hidden by Neptune, with its veils and traps. The final irony is that if you are able to live your own
truth, then your allotted Neptune becomes your greatest gift to others, rather than something you thought
you needed to achieve for yourself. Just look in your Chart what you think you are looking for in life. Only
when you let go of this dream can you really be yourself.
21
Neptune in the bodygraph
Neptune in Gate 48 (The Well, the Gate of Depth) in both calculations, for example, gives a constant potency
of wisdom from that person. However, if such solutions go hand in hand with how to arrive at that solution,
or if such information is scattered around too easily, then such a person gets lost in his own imagination, and
that source will be lost. This place of Neptune will determine the whole definition. The success of such a
definition lies in how such exceptional information is handled, and in how it communicates to others. This
person will never know where their depth comes from, and the uncertainty about it can immediately disrupt
that instinctual attunement, closing themselves off in a small world of their own, because no one understands
him/her.

Design-Neptune is a direct legacy from the grandmothers. Neptune also stands for the continuity and depth
of the structure. Grandparents and grandchildren, so to speak, often have the same enemy: the parents. In
genetics, new traits skip a generation, with the result that parents miss out on what the grandparents and
(grand) children do have in common.
Neptune can activate a single gate for more than three years. The cycle of Neptune as an outer planet around
the Zodiac lasts about 165 years. In a lifetime we will never be able to experience the full potential of
Neptune's programming. This also gives Neptune its spiritual characteristic that we as human beings are part
of an evolution, a gradual development.

Summary
Neptune in any gate veils its potential. This veiling can deeply disturb the not-self as it is not possible to see
through the veil, and we lose the ability to see any limitations, which can lead to abuse. Surrender to
Neptune, leave it alone, and you allow the potential magic to emerge from behind the veil. You also learn
a great deal about the nature of surrender.

Neptune on the Mundane Plane

Perhaps look after this article of Leela Swann-Herbert on Jovian Archive, talking about Neptune’s influence,
in relation to the financial market, and the start of fake news, overlays, etc.
https://www.jovianarchive.com/Stories/63/2027-_A_View_through_Neptune%e2%80%99s_Veil

Neptune in Exaltation: Imagination; Commitment to oblivion; Fantasy life; Mediumistic; Manageability; Innate
growth of consciousness

Neptune in Detriment: Self-deception; Humiliation; Degeneration, Fantasy world; Not realistic; Prone to make
or cause mistakes; not stable

Neptune in the "Weather Forecast": Provides the misinformation, or whatever was hidden that day.

22
Pluto
On February 18, 1930 (4:00 pm), Flagstaff AZ, USA, Tombaugh discovered a possible moving object on
photographic plates taken on January 23 and 29. A lower quality photo, taken Jan. 21, confirmed the
movement. After the observatory obtained further confirmatory photos, news of the discovery was wired to
Harvard College Observatory on March 13, 1930. Pluto has a cycle around the Sun of about 248 years. A cycle
from 1779-2024, from 2024-2271, and so on. In Human Design, the start of that cycle is in the start codon,
Gate 41.

Pluto is smaller than our Moon and is called a so-called dwarf planet. Pluto's
highly eccentric orbit is largely outside that of the planet Neptune. Pluto has
five moons, the largest of which - Charon - has so much mass that Pluto and
Charon revolve around a common center of gravity beyond the surface of
Pluto itself, making both celestial bodies appear by some to be a double
dwarf planet. Observations from the probe “New Horizons” in July 2015
showed an atmosphere 1600 km above the surface. The cyclically different
distances from the Sun would also influence the air pressure there.

Pluto in Human Design

Pluto is the grandmother, it is a Yin force and can be associated with the dark faces of Lilith or Kali. It is
the archetype of the old woman. Pluto will always tell you the truth like
grandmothers do if you don't get the answer from your parents. Pluto
represents the energy that the unconscious brings to the surface. It
represents rebirth and gives intensity to the Gate it activates.
Pluto is about the subjective truth of what you are as yourself. In other
words, what is the truth for you. After all, the moment that you are living
out your authority, no other truth matters. This is about individual human rights, not political rights. It is
the individual human right to be your own authority. And to be your own authority because you are acting
correctly as yourself. Wherever you see Pluto in your Bodygraph, this is really your truth and it takes a
whole life process to find out that truth.

23
The other side of Pluto is about finding light in the darkness. Pluto demands that we all discover our own dark
side, find our own individual truth. Pluto in your Design is the dark place in you. Exercising natural authority
shows that no other truth matters. Pluto does. It is an individual right to act like yourself.
For example, if Pluto is in Gate 59 or Gate 6, discovering what intimacy really means to you is essential in this
incarnation.

The Personality Pluto is the truth with which you manifest.

I myself have a Personality Pluto in Gate 4.2, defined Ajna Center, and will in a sense always
hold my feelings as a check against the logic of myself and others. "The mother who always
stands up for her child". And in this way, if necessary, always bring forth my truth with
authority and inner confidence. (JvdB)
The Design Pluto is the mysterious non-conscious part of you.

Pluto and the End-game

Perhaps it’s good to know, that the old cycle of the transforming Pluto ends on April 12, 2024 (!), and
the new order begins!

Summary
Pluto brings the forces of the subconscious to the surface, it represents rebirth. Pluto is the ‘truth teller’,
bringing truths that are hidden to the surface for you to look at directly and squarely in the eye - truth brings
transformation. Wherever you see Pluto in your chart, this is your Truth. Pluto’s deepest lesson, to find the
light within the darkness.

Pluto in Exaltation: Breakthrough; resurrection; subtle and hidden; establishing a new order from the axis of
the previous order; knowing what is hidden; trust; elimination, purification; regardless of the price tag;

Pluto in Detriment: Retaliation; stagnation; psychological barriers; anger; perverse fear; suspicious; inimitably
complex, difficult to follow; hurtful in denial; missed opportunities

Pluto in the "Weather Forecast": Delivers the truth of the day.

24
Other objects related to our Solar System
In the HD-bodygraph, we only use those objects of our Solar System, which embody your authority.
That doesn’t mean that other objects don’t influence you. There is an essential difference between accepting
influence, and making a decision. Every thing in a sense is an information package, influencing more or less
any body. That’s why being able to attune to your own frequency, your own authority, is so important, to live
yourself in your world.
So perhaps it’s a good thing to just be informed about certain objects which are large enough to talk about,
like dwarf planets and certain asteroids, so that specific experiences maybe become understandable and get
their place.
Human Design does of course not provide keywords for these other objects. These can be found in
astrological ideology. There are a few people with HD-background paying attention to such objects, however
again, it still has nothing to do with HD (except Kiron of course).
To know in what position certain objects are in your Chart, just look for “ephemeris for …” on the internet.
With that information, you are able to look in the Wheel, and with help of the “Rave I ‘Ching”, which Gate-
Line is influenced.
Kiron is normally also included in the usual planet-ephemerides, for example the “Swiss-ephemeris”:
https://www.astro.com/swisseph/swepha_e.htm

Kiron
Occupying an eccentric orbit between Saturn and Uranus, Kiron was named
after a unique centaur (part human, part horse) in Greek mythology. The
meaning of Kiron in Human Design is very different from what was
prevalent after the discovery of Kiron in 1977. Especially for those with a 6th
Line in their Profile, with their life dynamic of a tripartite process, which by
the way operates as a mutative continuity.
Kiron is very significant in our evolutionary process. For 6th liners the Kiron
Return at about 50, is their midlife. When they are born as a 6th liner, which is
different individually when that should be, say between 26 and 34, they have to
rd
shed, they have to shed that 3 line process, like a butterfly has its phases.
The first step on the roof is a birth, being out of the cocoon. However, coming off the roof is about proving its
viability. And if not viable it is vulnerable. 6th Line beings, and it’s generally the case, who enter into their
process late, there really isn’t enough time to be able to clean out all that stuff that’s lingering from the 3 rd
Line phase and the identification with “that was me.”
So that first 30 years is for exploration and experience only. And all that stuff and those problems and all this
and that, well, not you so to say. So the challenge is normally creating hope, as a distance from a 3 rd Line
pessimism. Particularly in dealing with 6/3s and 3/6s, because obviously that 3rd Line theme is always going to
be there. And to come the recognition that it is that 6 that you are, the one that is to be trusted, the one that
is here to be the leader, the one that is here to have the vision to see far enough advanced that they can be
able to be of value to the other. The one that can be the role model, the one that can transcend hypocrisy, the
one that can, in essence, be what we all need to become — unique authorities; individual, unique authorities,
which is the goal of this mutation. After all, the goal of this mutation, the mutation is leading us into one of
the most individual eras, one of the most individual epochs in terms of global planning that we could end up
in.
Don’t count the days; live the life. There is so much to discover. The first thing you need to discover if you’re
correct is that your life is something that is happening. It’s just something that is happening. And it’s
something that is happening in a way that works for you. And it isn’t necessarily what you think it should be,

25
or where you think it should be or any of the things that your mind will say and do, or try to do. There is the
beginning of a process.

Dwarf planets, proto planets, planetoids and asteroids beyond Neptune

Sedna
A

cycle of ± 1.200 years

Sedna was discovered on December 14, 2003 (06:32 am GMT). Mythical she is the mother of all life.

Ra (2004) : “The fact that they find a chunk of rock out in the Oort Belt does not mean that suddenly that’s
going to change the configuration or the calculation in somebody’s design any more than the presence of
Titan does, which is the largest Moon of Saturn, which quite frankly is big enough to be a planet in anybody’s
description. Let alone the Moons of Jupiter, and so forth and so on. The fact is that everything influences
everything; and everything is penetrated by the neutrino stream. But we are imprinted specifically by only
certain objects. And in the case of the nodes being specifically programmed by certain objects through a

26
window; that is, the window that the nodes represent that open out onto the stellar field. However,
obviously, the moment that something comes into the consciousness, the moment that something is labeled
and given a name, the moment that people look out at it—I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard and seen
it written that we have discovered the 10th planet. As a matter of fact, these discoveries in the Oort Belt tend
to damage the reputation of Pluto. That is, most scientists today agree that Pluto is not a planet. It’s probably
the inner most object of this collection of objects that are out in the furthest limits in the solar system. It’s
certainly true of both Pluto and more than likely its Moon Charon.
However, the fact that Sedna is there, and the fact that people are talking about it and are curious about it,
also means that there is an information package that is being placed in the consciousness field. And the story
of Sedna is a curious one.”

Having a glimpse of the Yin Power, and about what is coming.

Ra’s overall thinking of the evolutionary movement, is that a new mythology is emerging. “Neptune is the sea
goddess who is now the doorway at the end of what is the solar system, and of course the thing that is the
threshold of maintaining what is human, in terms of programming. This is a warmly, hot bubbling sea, the hot
sea. Talking about the sea is talking about emotions.”
“Sedna (an arctic goddess), a creation Goddess, a sea goddess, who is the beginning of what is a new
mythology. Sedna is the goddess of frozen water. There is no wave. It’s cold. And it has nothing to do with
what it is to be human. It says: “I carry in me the seed to turn off the wave”. And who does Sedna use to get
this across? Men of course. Every not-self male can be manipulated by a female force. It’s the great power of
the Yin. Under the influence of Neptune that Yin force didn’t get power to exercise.
Being part of our consciousness, makes that any human being born after the discovery of Sedna, has the
mutative potential to give birth to a Rave. So Sedna is the mother, mythologically speaking, of a new lifeform.”

Eris

A cycle of ± 557 years

Eris was discovered by the team of Mike Brown, Chad Trujillo,
and David Rabinowitz on January 5, 2005, from images taken on
October 21, 2003. The latest size estimate, as of February 2006,
is a diameter of 3000 km. To put that in perspective, our Moon is
3500 km, Pluto is 2300 km, and Pluto's moon Charon only 1200
km.

Today, there is a religion that worships the goddess Eris. Well,

sort of. Anyway, the members of this faith call themselves
Discordians http://principiadiscordia.com/.

Eris, (the God of Lawlessness). In the beginning the workname of

the dwarf planet Eris was Xena, the female warrior, played by
the actress Lucy Lawless. So when it came to an official name, it
became Eris.
Looking for the parallel: In many traditions Eris is the sister of
Mars, which is a (immature) warrior energy. Eris at her turn
knows how to manipulate forces, so that she herself will be never Eris: 2003UB313
seen as the source. Pandemonium, chaos, she can plant the seeds.
Not about human at all. The Yin has always been more powerful

27
than the Yang. The Yang power always was an illusion. And it’s
coming out now.

Ceres
Ceres is the only object found in the so called Asteroid Belt
to be called a dwarf planet. This Main Belt is located roughly
between the orbits of the planets Jupiter and Mars. Other
names to be mentioned are Vesta and Pallas, which by their
size are asteroids.

Discovered on January 1st, 1801, it was called the 8th planet

for half a century! Ceres, like Pallas and Vesta, are so called
proto-planets, a pre-stage of a planet in which the core has
melted. Over time, collisions with other so-called proto-
planets allowed dwarf planets and planets to form, such as
the Earth and Moon in all probability formed from a collision
with the lost protoplanet Theia.

Ra had a conversation on Vesta in “Jovian Archive Report”, a paid

monthly newsletter (January 2004). Unfortunately I don’t have
that issue.
