What are the Arrows on my Human Design Chart? An Introduction to Human Design Variables

”Variable addresses what Strategy and Authority cannot: correctness in the realms of mind and awareness. It guides us in aligning the mind to its natural intelligence, rather than attempting to align it with the Not-Self. This alignment makes possible a deeper harmony with our Design, greater peace of mind and, ultimately, connects us to our potential and our journey of transformation.” Ra Uru Hu

From the inception of The Human Design System in 1992, Ra Uru Hu began training professionals.

Today, Human Design Professional Analysts and Teachers offer their services to an ever-growing audience.

The IHDS Professional Training Academy was formally established in September 2008 and offers many training programs.

Human Design is an evolution that takes hold one person at a time.

What is Variable according to Human Design?
Four Arrows, 16 Unique Combinations
Variable is an advanced area of the Human Design System which offers you an in-depth look at your cognitive design and uniqueness. It provides you with a clear, practical map for the transformation of your awareness and therefore how you experience your life. It is a key to “enlightenment."

Type organizes humans into four Aura frequencies that each share a particular approach to life. This “Strategy” enables us to live with less resistance and provides a base for our unique Authority. Variable is a calculation that organizes us into one of the 16 Variable families, pointing out the nature of our awareness patterns and the evolution of our consciousness.

”Awareness is a physical practice of a mechanical process. Type is to Form what Variable is to Awareness.” Dr. Andrea Reikl-Wolf, Geneticist and Differentiation Degree teacher at the International Human Design School.

Variable reveals the four areas of transformation potential for all nine-centered beings. Variable points you to the way you are designed to operate optimally and how you are designed to take in information and experience awareness.

Do you know if you are designed to have an Active or Passive brain, and are you designed to be the Observed or the Observer in your environment? Is your Mind designed to function Strategically or Receptively, and is your awareness Focused or Peripheral?

Do you have an active brain, which needs regular nourishment and more food, or a passive brain, which needs less?
Do you have an active brain, which needs regular nourishment and more food, or a passive brain, which needs less?

“There is no greater revolution in this knowledge than the understanding, beyond Inner Authority, that there is such a thing as Leftness and Rightness when it comes to the brain/mind system and how it operates. It is the most important knowledge we have for the transformation of our consciousness.” Ra Uru Hu

Variable is found at a very deep level of your genetic makeup. When you operate correctly, you can live out the possibility of your full uniqueness and the expression of your Type’s signature (peace, satisfaction, success, surprise) when accurately aligned to what is correct for you.

How is my Human Design Variable determined?
Your Variable calculation is derived from a combination of both your Personality and Design Sun and Earth as well as your North and South Nodes of the Moon.

Detailed through Jovian Archive’s Human Design software (Maia Mechanics Advanced Imaging) and free to find out when you use Jovian Archive’s online Human Design chart service, Variable comes from a deeper level than the surface of the Human Design bodygraph. Beneath the hexagram lines are four values: Color, Tone, and Base. Tone is the inner frequency of the neutrino’s movement through your Personality and Design crystals, and this inner architecture of what we call the crystals of consciousness is what determines your Variable.

The primary benefit of Human Design is discovering how you are designed to make correct decisions. Your self-understanding can be considerably deepened by understanding each of your Variables. These vital keys help guide your way as you walk down the path of awareness so that you have the potential to come into contact with the highest level of consciousness and cognitive functioning possible from your system.
