We don’t need to understand it all before we try it. The best Human Design teachers advise us not to believe in it, just try it. We can each discover what these words mean to us personally in a way that verifies whether or not they hold true. Response is an experience arising from the body. They are not static, perfect laws to live by. The strategies and concepts offered by this system point to an awareness of frequency, resonance and the life force energy that animates us. Waiting helps us to interrupt the compulsive behaviors and attitudes we have adopted to cope with a world that seeks to homogenize us. It can be an active development of an inner witness that watches what is happening and the body’s inner response to it, the inner authority. Waiting in this context is not about becoming passive or overly restrictive in how we go about life. And while we can surrender to the unknown, we can also respect the pace and timing in which it reveals itself to us. It may upend our notions of propriety and safety. This is a non-moralistic potential to awaken to receiving a life so unique we could not have dreamt it up, a life so surprising that we can be amazed at the way it unfolds. The potential is to realize the perfection of what we naturally are, not so that we can get something better or even what we imagine would be good. However, it was offered as knowledge to be interpreted through our lived experience, along with a healthy dose of common sense. The mind will tend to take knowledge like Human Design and turn it into a literal set of rules to impose on ourselves in order to control or improve our lives.
