It's been such a relief to realize I have a defined heart/ego. It's been satisfying to let everyone I know off the hook in terms of "keeping up" with me and to just follow my heart and focus on myself. My role in life is clearer. It's been freeing to let myself respond to the challenge when others get competitive with me, and it's sweet to win. It's much more fun than trying to play down my own willful or "egoic" energy. Those words are so often casting the energy in a negative light. It's unspeakable, how much it means to me to claim this energy for myself, accept it, love it, and enjoy it. When people would mention that I am competitive, I would be genuinely clueless, which would make them cynical. The way I saw it, I just "enjoy a good game." Now I understand that they amplify the energy of my heart. It gets them up, it pushes them. Just by virtue of being in my presence.
@@evanmorrisreiser that makes sense. My manifestor friend with this channel says that people are always drag racing her at stoplights...lol! And she was my very first ever human design reading, so initiated me into this path. I've also had several boyfriends with this channel and with them I went through shocking initiations. I bet you have some good stories!
From my experience people who have been blessed with defined hearts actually get mistreated and deceived the most by others. Especially if they have an undefined spleen and don't know how to protect themselves. I am almost 40 now and I have witnessed some of the worst people trying to take advantage of me in many sorts of ways. Thankfully I also have a defined spleen along with splenic authority and have always been intuitively guided to survive those situations. I've mastered the ability to see right through deceitful people like scotch tape and it's gotten that much more easier to maneuver my way around such people. I pray that everyone with defined hearts learn to protect themselves and recognize that not everyone smiling at you are actually happy for you or has your best interest at heart. ❤️
Interesting perspective. I can definitely see how this could happen. Thank you for sharing. It's great timing as I am writing about the Heart center right now in my book. One contemplation that I have for you...have you done healing work around this? I think part of the deconditioning healing process is that our definition makes us a magnet for things and we need to learn how to navigate that. I for example, used to experience a lot of abusive dynamics and attracted people who wanted to take advantage of my sexuality because of my 59-6 channel...until I understood this and then went on a healing journey around it . Now I don't attract those dynamics and like you said, can smell them a mile away. So I think our definition comes with it's gifts and the things we need to be aware of. And healing the distortions related to our definition helps out what we attract.
I've descoverd HD 1 year ago and I've started studying it now. I'm an Ego Mani 3/5 and it feels like there is NO ONE in this world that understands the urges I have inside of me to do random things that just feels right. The downsize of it is that I was conditioned my whole life to respond and respond to a narcisist mother, which made me be afraid of my own ideas and brought up this feeling of comparation all the time. However, right now, I kinda of feel like there is this huge and gigante force inside of me pushing me to do stuff while my mind keeps holding me back, and I literally feel in my gut that I've been liberating and getting cured from past patterns and about to step into my power with no fear.. which feel AMAZING! So, I just want to let everyone know that the world claims for what we have to offer and that all starts with us, hope that if you're reading this you have the strength to iniciate what's in your heart
I have this center defined, and I resent feeling like I have to prove myself to others. I get annoyed when people are surprised by my achievements. I know I'm not conventionally attractive and I feel like other people think I shouldn't have confidence in myself at all since I'm not. I think the pressure comes from my undefined Root though. I also have an undefined G Center and Ajna, so I am always questioning myself in those areas.
These names given to describe the heart is irrational. Ego is part of the mind and heart is where you feel emotions. Heart is not will power! Will power is from the solar plexus. The healthy ego joined with the heart wills to keep living and move forward. The heart controls the thymus. The highest expression of the heart is pure love and the lower expressions of the heart is self centeredness. I have benefited a lot from self help measures and have learned to release a lot of pain to function in more healthy ways and understand myself more! Human design is purely a self help study! Someone in human design needs to rename these things and make it flow better. It is too complicated and doesnt seem to connect with how the body works. My heart center is open and i havent had a happy life but the list of unhealthy behaviors of the heart are not part of my experience now because i learned to keep myself grounded and keep good energetic boundaries between people and thats when i began to see that i was merely empathic and sucking in others pain because of my childhood pain. I did self help stuff until i gained more confidence and found more freedom. I dont think i could have processed my life using the human design thinking. It doesnt make sense!

It frustrates me with the open or undefined heart/ego people. I will follow-through come hell or high water, and I expect when people say they are going to do something, that they do it. Unreliability is a flaw. Don't say you are going to do something if later you are going to bail out and leave other people holding the responsibility.
Hmmmm… it seems like you didn’t fully take in the whole defined versus undefined ego thing. I agree that it’s much more favourable for people to make agreements that they can keep. But most of the world is asleep to this center mechanic and it is unrealistic to expect the world to conform to what we wish it would be. I would hope that this awareness gives you more understanding of others and that they really aren’t designed to be willful and that having the defined ego is a gift that you have which is quite valuable.
As most of my centers are undefined (only solar plexus and heart defined) It gives me a lot of energy and power to know that I can listen to my emotions (solar plexus) and empower that feeling with my heart (ego). There are so many open spots that can leave me easy second guessing myself to a point of huge personal turmoil. It is helpful to know that I have this power in me and I can learn through it.
So if you have a open heart/ego and it means having lack of will power but have an inner authority emotional solar plexus which has to do with will power how does that work?
An open heart doesn't mean that you have no will power, but rather that you have inconsistent access to it. With an emotional authority you need to wait for that emotional clarity. When the clarity and desire overlap that's is your sweet spot for taking action.
What does it mean if I have heart undefined and open (no gates)? I also have an undefined and open solar plexus? This seems like a lot to work through?
I wouldn't worry about it too much at this point. It means that having no gates, that you will not have a tendency for that center to express any one of the potential expressions more than the others...and that you have the full range of each of the gates as a possibility to express or not at any given moment. It definitely is a lot to work through. If you haven't already seen the recent video I made about how to read a Human Design chart, I recommend you check it out.
I have undefined and a dormant gate of 21.2 my sun and my venus 21.4 so like natural power and talent for control and an opportunist when it comes to control...I often get the feeling of ppl being threatened by me and in the past I was controlling b/c ppl weren't fast enough for me...I've become myself and I understand so much more now as a leader energy...

Based on this I would consider that maybe human design isn’t for you.

Hi from Canada Rea Claire! I'm so glad that you found this information. Did you see the video that goes over the different profiles?
It frustrates me with the open or undefined heart/ego people. I will follow-through come hell or high water, and I expect when people say they are going to do something, that they do it. Unreliability is a flaw. Don't say you are going to do something if later you are going to bail out and leave other people holding the responsibility.

Well if it's defined it's not about getting it done quick, but when it's needed. Being fast is the open root not-self that fucks up big time.
As most of my centers are undefined (only solar plexus and heart defined) It gives me a lot of energy and power to know that I can listen to my emotions (solar plexus) and empower that feeling with my heart (ego). There are so many open spots that can leave me easy second guessing myself to a point of huge personal turmoil. It is helpful to know that I have this power in me and I can learn through it.
I have a client with this same design. Channel 37-40. She needs to rest lots :)
@@karenmcmullen Interesting! I have exactly the same channel 37-40
oh its actually the only channel that goes there between the solar plexus and the heart, I didn't realize that
Thank you for your work
You are very welcome 🙏
Defined 😊❤🎉
Lucky!!!

When you have a defined ego, but also sun opposite moon in your natal chart… bit of a contradiction lol
Yes our charts are all full of contradictions.
What does it mean if I have heart undefined and open (no gates)? I also have an undefined and open solar plexus? This seems like a lot to work through?
I wouldn't worry about it too much at this point.
