Human Design Channel: Cycles, Beginnings, Middles, and Ends

Cripes. This one covers a lot of territory for me. It explains why I’ve been someone so valuable in certain situations, and a failure or destructive force in others where it would seem things should have gone better than they did.

My defined Cycles Channel describes why my life experiences have been so varied, and why my results in seemingly similar situations have fluctuated wildly between stratospheric success and abject failure.

There is no “steady” in my life. I’ve both loved this aspect of being me and hated it with a passion. It keeps me from being bored but the reasons aren’t always positive.

This also explains why I am so drawn to projects rather than any long term career. I operate in Cycles. Showing up to a job that has no definable end, beyond aging out, is a death sentence for me.

I can only stay sane knowing I am part of something that will wrap up relatively quick.

I can motivate myself to dig through endless piles of horseshit to reach the other side, if I know it’s somewhere close.

There is a certain nomadic flavor to my actions.

I don’t really stay anywhere with anyone for too long. When my gut tells me it’s time to split, I sometimes only have minutes to act on that awareness before bad things start entering my experience.

On the flip side, I fight hard and long to complete anything I say “yes” to.

I feel compelled to do so. Not finishing a project leaves an itchiness in my brain that I can’t quite scratch.

On the flip side of that, I can end up staying too long with a project out of stubborn, dogged determination wanting to leave a thing in a condition that makes me proud. And that becomes an unhealthy experience for me too.

All of this is rooted in my ability to get clear on a plan before I commit to it, something I had been working to improve long before I ever found the same info repeated to me in this Human Design Report.

But, again, so nice to have my actions verified as sensible and unavoidable. Takes some pressure off the struggle to know if I’m doing right by me, as well as those who depend on me, or not.

According to this info, I am a simultaneously the ignition source for any event and the format developer of the event itself, without limit.

I decide what should happen, or wish to happen, then I rally the troops around me to make it happen.

I do this to meet my own needs. But I also do it to help others meet theirs.
