Rejection is Protection
Have you ever been convinced that you wanted something, not gotten it, felt crushed + heartbroken…. then later realized it was not actually for you and felt grateful to have dodged a bullet?
It’s like that cliche, “Rejection is God’s protection”
Speaking from personal experience- it’s wild to recall the number of times I have forcefully pursued something that in retrospect, was so obviously not for me. I’ve applied for jobs that anyone who knows me can attest that I would absolutely hate. I’ve chased after men who are nowhere near capable of meeting me in the way I desire to be met.
Why do I waste my energy doing these things? Because my mind can be very persuasive. My undefined spleen persuades me that I need that job/relationship in order to feel safe and comfortable. My open ego tells me that the thing I am trying to force will make me feel worthy. My open G believes that this is love and if I release it I won’t have any love. My undefined root tells me I need to hurry up and make something happen RIGHT NOW! Etc etc.
Some of the things my mind wants are more aligned than others… but still, my mind is not equipped to discern whether or not something is correct for me. My mind speaks for my conditioning. It is only through cultivating a relationship with my inner authority that I have been able to build trust in my ability to feel when something is true. It’s not my mind’s choice what is for me in this life; my body chooses. If I honor that choice, I get peace. If I don’t, I get anger + chaos. Simple mechanics.
So, this is all to say- if you are hell-bent on trying to manifest the things your mind thinks you want, I don’t recommend Human Design. There are plenty of other systems you can mess around with if that’s your aim. Go get high on Abraham Hicks, I don’t care. Human Design is all about learning to feel (and attract/create) what you ACTUALLY desire, on the deepest level. What will truly bring you the deepest fulfillment and align you to your signature.
Human Design makes zero promises about what your life will look like externally when you decondition- the only claim is that you will get to experience your signature.
If you’re a Generator and you think you’d rather be very wealthy and admired by strangers even if it comes at the expense of your satisfaction and pleasure, great! Human Design isn’t for you, at least not yet. HD brings you what is for you, even if it’s not what you think you want.
Can you trust that? Can you let go of what you think you want, and surrender to what is truly for you?
