The Four Types

The Human Design System groups people into one of four categories called "Types:" Manifestors, Generators, Projectors and Reflectors. Each Type has a different Strategy that, when followed, can help individuals develop healthy decision making skills and cultivate parctices that affirm their unique gifts. Human Design focuses on how the Types interact with one another and explores how understanding their specific roles can help them live happier healthier lives.

According to this system, when you do not behave according to the Strategy of your Type, you may experience friction or resistance from others. Over time, this may wear you down and make life feel much more diffucult than it should. Learning to use the Strategy of your Type as a tool helps to eliminate undue resistance and keeps you healthy.

Each Type suffers from a particular predominant negative feeling as a result of meeting resistance when they are not living according to their Design. Applying the appropriate Strategy reduces these uncomfortable feelings and results in more pleasurable experiences of life.
