Now, each one of these types has a role to play but they also have a particular strategy to follow. And when they follow this strategy, life gets so much easier. When I use the word strategy in Human Design, I'm talking about the correct way of approaching and navigating your everyday life. So let's talk more about the strategy for each type. The strategy for the manifester manifestos are here to initiate action to get the ball rolling, but the strategy for the manifester is to inform others before initiating the action and the key word here is before inform others before initiating action. Here are some examples of famous Manchester's.
Next, let's talk about the strategy for generators. generators are not designed to initiate. In fact, none of the rest of the types are designed to initiate, only the manifester gets to initiate action. So generators and all the rest of the types are designed to wait. So what is the generator waiting for? a generator is waiting for an opportunity to respond.
Let me clarify this you might be thinking respond to what? So as a generator, you're not designed to go chasing after life. That's the job of the manifester. The generator is designed to allow life to come to them. That life come knocking on your door when life knocks on your door, you answer the door and you respond to it at that time. So generators are waiting for something to show up in their outer physical reality in order for them to respond to what shows up.
Allow me to explain through this analogy. Here's a generator at work. Remember we said generators are worker bee, so they tend to get a lot of work. This generator looks over at this pile of papers on his desk after the last hurricane came through, and he's an insurance adjuster. And he's thinks gee whiz, I really could use a vacation I am overwhelmed would work here. Now, that idea came from within him, he shouldn't do anything with it other than to hold on to the thought that he could use a vacation.
Now it just so happens that that afternoon this generator has an appointment with his doctor, and he goes to the doctor for his annual physical and the doctor says, Look at you're almost in a state of adrenal fatigue or exhaustion here. Don't know what you're running on. I'm really going to suggest that you take some downtime, find some time to take some downtime if you have vacation, perhaps you want to consider putting in for now, this came from the doctor came from outside of the generator, code the generator respond to this suggestion from the doctor. Absolutely he could. And he does. He decides that he's going to take the rest of the day off.
And he's thinking about this vacation. He's already decided that tomorrow morning when he goes to work, he's putting in paperwork for vacation. Now, he's driving home for the afternoon and he's thinking about this vacation. And before you know it, he's so involved in thought that he's missed his exit on the expressway. So he makes the loop de loop gets back on the expressway when he gets off. There's a billboard sign waiting for him right there that's talking about vacation.
Could he respond to the billboard sign? Of course he could. It was something that showed up in His outer reality. Okay, so he continues on his journey gets off the correct exit this time. And before he goes upstairs to his apartment, he decides that he really should take some time to check the mail. Because he's been so tired when he comes home from work lately.
He's slacking, he hasn't checked the mail in three days, five days, maybe even a week. So he goes to the mailbox and there's a big stack of mail waiting for him. And right on the top of that stack of mail, there's a postcard from a timeshare resorts soliciting him to come to their timeshare. Could he respond to that, of course he could is something that showed up in his outer reality. So you get the idea of what I mean, wait to respond. The generator is waiting for something to show up in their outer physical reality, and then they can respond to that.
Here are a few examples of generators. Now let's talk about the manifesting generator. I just happen to be a manifesting generator. And on the day that manifesting generators were born, they had a Bogo, you know, buy one, get one free special. And because I didn't know any better, I said, Sure, sign me up. So here's how it happens for the manifesting generator.
First and foremost, they are a generator. So first and foremost, they must wait to respond to something in their outer physical reality, just like the generator. Then because they also happen to have some manifester characteristics in their chart. They have a second step to their strategy, which means they must inform others be For keyword is before taking any action. So manifesting generators have a two step strategy and each of those steps is important. The first step is wait to respond, just like the generator and the second step is inform others before taking action, just like the manifester, here are examples of manifesting generators.
Next, let's talk about the strategy for the projectors. projectors have it a little bit more challenging. projectors are also waiting they're not designed to initiate so projectors are waiting to be invited. Now this is a little bit more tricky, waiting to respond. Pretty easy thing to show up all the time, but waiting invitations, sometimes there are few and far between. So projectors are waiting to be invited.
Now we live in modern time. So projectors have lots of ways to be invited. They can have Facebook, they can be tweeted they can receive an email, they can get a text message they can get called on their cell phone. So lots of opportunities for projectors to be invited. So projectors are probably wondering, invited to what what am I waiting for an invitation to. So projectors are always waiting to be invited into the big things in life.
I said the big things in life, things like friendship and romance, things like career and work opportunities and business adventures, where to live, where to retire, all of the bigger things in life, the projector should enter into those through an invitation. And there's one other time one other very important time that projectors should wait to be asked or invited. And that's before they share their gift of guidance and direction with others. They're here to guide and direct the energy of the others. But if they want to be well received, it's best for the projector to wait to be asked or invited before they share their gift of guidance. Now projectors, please don't take this as two invited things to extreme.
Don't drive out of gas because nobody invited you to fill up the tank. Don't go hungry because no one's invited you to eat. It doesn't apply to everyday mundane things. It applies to the entry into the bigger things in life and also before you share your gifts of guidance and direction with others. Here are some examples of famous projectors. Now let's talk about reflectors and the strategy for reflectors.
Reflectors are there Of all the types in Human Design, there are only approximately 1% of the population. And when you look at a reflectors chart, you're going to see that all of those energy centers those white geometric shapes are white. This means the reflector is completely open. Now, reflectors have a very unique strategy. There lunar being so reflectors are going to have to wait one lunar cycle one complete lunar cycle before making any major decisions. So as a generator, you may think it's a little bit challenging to wait to respond.
A projector might think Jay was waiting for invitations, that's kind of hard. Imagine being a reflector and having to wait 28 days one complete lunar cycle before you make any major decisions. We don't live in a reflector friendly world. You know the house you want to buy as a reflector. How about gives you a deposit for 1000 bucks and ask if he can get back to you in 29 days to let you know if it's correct for the car. You're selling.
On Craigslist, how about the reflector gives you a small good faith deposit and asked you to hold it for 29 days until he can make the decision. You see, it's not a reflector friendly world that we're living in. So reflectors must wait one complete lunar cycle before making any major decisions. And while they're waiting that complete lunar cycle, they're designed to talk with others about the opportunity that they're trying to decide about. And not because they're looking for our advice. They're using the rest of us as a sounding board.
The reflector will reach clarity when they're talking to others about what comes out of the reflectors mouth themselves. So once again, they're waiting 28 days before making a major decision, discussing the decision with others and using us as a sounding board. Here are some examples of famous reflectors. Let's review what we've learned about strategy for each of the types. The manifester is here to initiate, and their strategy is to inform others be for they take any action. The generator is waiting to respond to something that shows up in their outer physical reality.
The manifesting generator has to step to this strategy. First, they're waiting to respond just like the generator, and then they're informing others prior to taking action just like the manifester. The projectors are waiting for invitations into the bigger things in life. And before they share their gift of guidance and direction with others, and the reflector is waiting one complete lunar cycle before they make any major life decisions. And they're talking to others during that time and using others as a sounding board.
