I’m still in the process of deconditioning feeling guilty or “lazy” for resting/not working like a generator. I find it exhausting to work for long periods of time and am learning that working for short spurts and then resting prevents burnout. Thank you for sharing! 🙌🏻
Karen McMullen I’m really trying to! The alternative is burnout, which has manifested as physical illness in the past. So I defs don’t want that haha. Hugs to you as well! 💗
Seconded on another comment about laziness! It's so difficult having been conditioned into working all the time. I also think it's the capitalist system we live in that also makes us internalise this as our value. I've also been called lazy as well, but realise that working at my own pace is so much better. It means many of us just by nature are more independent or selective about our circle.
I think every Manifestor learned to work as a Generator and burned out at some point, lol, but my biggest struggle, I would say, is knowing when enough is enough. For so many times in life, I stayed in relationships (romantic, friendships, and even within my family) much longer than I should have. It is just hard to leave when it is appropriate, which is kind of crazy because we are designed to act, so it shouldn't be a problem. This one, I'll need more time to learn how to master it truly.
So Interesting, its like I just live my life tryin to find the easiest way to make the most amount of money without having to work for it. When I work straight for 3 hours its like i need a 5 hour break. I literally had to start a business just so I could take at least 4.5 months of vacation
To me it sounds like they all have chronic illness with chronic fatigue syndrome as a portion of what they have co-morbidly accrued (or as the sole stand alone issue) because with that you work as you can no 8 hours, you need lots of rest, and a bit of work feels like a lot for instance for me 4 hours feels like 10. So it's a bit confusing to have this video as my intro video into all this.
Yes. I love work! And I function best working in intervals. Work a week take a month off. Or work a month take a few off. Work usually is intense otherwise I get bored. No more guilt resting because I can work like a dog. But I often feel I’m not in the right environment yet, need to be patient with myself and compassionate with my surrounding. I love being alone and not being in a partnership. It gives me headache if my friends talk about their romances. The only romantic way of connecting is seeing an independent grounded human who knows what he/she is doing, especially music. Oh and damn! Informing people? It’s such an amazing teaching to share myself, I usually do all myself as an introvert and practicing non violent communication is such great gift. I can hurt people with my harsh truth outbursts, so NVC has been a great guide. I wish there could be a meeting with only manifestors! Let’s meet 😸💖
As a teenager I had the same experience as Tara! I think that the constant conflict inside me is the whole time I've been trying to be a generator and I'm not I'm a manifestor!
This whole "closed aura" thing is really blowing my mind. I have always had the sense that most people kind of steer clear of me and thought it was a personality flaw, like I just needed to try harder to be more approachable and open. In the past, the misunderstanding of this led me to force myself to stay in certain corporate lifestyles and relationships that were suffocating me. I have only more recently started reframing this as my superpower since unwanted energies also steer clear and I basically have a built in filtration system 😅, but this video also gives me some much needed peace on the subject.
Wow. I am so happy to hear this. IF you'd like to come and join us in THE GRID ~ Network for Light Leaders I would be curious to get to know you. facebook.com/groups/545521383420240
Great video Karen! As a manifester, I tried to live like a generator but I just burned out. Now I keep my own schedule...rising early, working intensely, then taking time to rest later in the day. Find everything works better when I rest, read, just have time. Loved how this is affirming what I've learned for myself...
Hi Kristina! I didn't know you are a manifestor. How cool that you found your way without this information and that this affirms what you already discovered. Amazing.
I'm just learning about human design. Absolutely all of this resonates. The closed aura (and me pushing myself to be warm and open and 'safe'). 'Stealing' time to be still because I felt a break in steady work was unacceptable. The 4 am energy instead of pulling all-nighters. The preference to sleep alone. My question- how do Manifestors hold healthy romantic relationships? Who do they best pair with? How do we best be emotionally and energetically available for someone we want to give Love to?
Hi beautiful, I’m so happy you found this information. If you look in the Empowered Manifestor playlist on this channel, there is a video about romantic love for manifestor women. 💗
I'm 46 i found out i was a manifestor about 3 years ago What i can tell you is that it was not a surpris I new and i could feel i was difrent nothing in common with my parents brothers sisters never had friends I've always expérience jalousie envy or they just hate me for no reason Even my boyfreinds would walk away from me just to get along with another girl not because she was better than me in enyway but just because there's somethings about me that guys just can't handle I was lucky to have already learn since i was like 6 years old that i didnt have to be like enyone else i didnt have to do things like others did just to be like them even though it's wasen't easy at all I new i was special I was on of a kind I new what to do and how to do what i had to do
Great insights!! That explains why I had been yoyoing between work and burnouts several times! After the forth time I decided, I need something different for sure! I found a remote job from home and it was already much better, but I still had a hard time with the 9-5. Last year I finally quit my 9-5 job to work as a virtual assistant with my own schedule, much better! I still find myself not completely aligned with it and now I'm switching again lol, but my struggle is to find how to make more than enough money without sacrificing all my time for it, and also how to not feel guilty or lazy about it!
Thank you so much for this video! After finding the human design few days ago I finally understand why I do not “fit in” and operate how the generator does. My parents and my sister are generators and I felt guilty when I was not “doing” and working as hard as they do and was not understood for wanting something else from life. And in my work as well. I am a doctor but I was not able to sustain that 9-5 job. I was exhausted and didn’t know what to do. I thought my work was the problem. That maybe I dont like being a doctor, but actually I love it but in a completely different time - work schedule which is not possible in the generators world. I quit before december and decided to be an entrepreneur instead and do my own thing. Now I see why I felt like it and that I made a good choice. Any further tips on being a manifestor and work/ Business / enterpreneurship? I would be so thankful 🙏🏻🌸✨ Thanks a lot for Your videos! 🤍🤍
Hi Veronika! How wonderful that you've found HD and this channel. I suggest watching all the videos in the Empowered Manifestor series as a start. From there, you might want to consider doing a 1 hour channeled + Human Design reading with me. I have helped a lot of manifestors get a really solid sense of their business direction and the deeper why underlying their work. You can find that on the front page of my website: www.karenmcmullen.ca. Thanks for being here!
I burned myself out by age 38 trying to be like a generator. I felt called to renounce the rat race and follow the dopamine and follow my own energy. :)🧘♀️
Here a Manifestor Ego, 1/3, mid-forties. I have been a perfect generator slave my whole life. My husband is a workaholic Generator 6/2. After a few breakdowns and a thyroid autoimmune disease I try to slow down a honour my energy. It looks like I will split up from my husband after 16 years. Being a Manifestor is painful and challenging.
Hi lovely, I'm so glad that you found the empowered manifestor series. Did you see that it's a playlist with several videos? It sounds like you are entering a chapter of greater empowerment and honouring your design, so maybe things are looking up from here on?? I'm sorry to hear about your split up. It's so hard to go through a breakup (i've been through so many), but you'll come out the other side better for it. Don't lose hope. You're only just beginning!
Karen McMullen Oh thank you so much for your response. I appreciate it 🙏 so much. I will have a look on the profiles videos. Thank you. Kindest ☀️🙋🏼♀️😘
6,2 Manifestor with ego manifested authority - now it makes sense to me how I can sleep 10 hours in a deeeeep sleep and only wake up to an alarm. When I’m going, I can’t be stopped, but when I go down, I go down hard. I’m lucky that my daughter is a Generator and also my business partner. She is the GO and I am the idea force. Now I see why we are such a good team
I’m the first born female manifestor, mom is a generator, we are ALL LIBRAS in my family…. My friendly mask is very effective. I’m closed, (you won’t ever be able to know all that is in my brain/heart.) but oddly enough, I can get in. ;) but I don’t come in until I see an invitation.* I am like a projector so using projector skills and avoiding projector Not Self is useful for me.
I'm so glad I found this video! Thank you!!! I've been working since 14 and maintained honor status through high school and college, and worked in corporate and higher Ed. I ended up getting severe burnout during my second year of being a dept head putting in 50-60 hrs a week. I quit everything because I had no more energy for anything or anyone and I didn't know why. Now I'm on the path to figuring out who and why. Thank you!
Definitely been conditioned, growing up and as an adult, to be the one who initiates and who gets things done. It was pitched to me that I was bossy, controlling, up tight, and/or "if you want that you have to do it yourself". So I always saw that as reasonable as I have as the person who wanted x y or z. Maybe I didn't have willing generators around me 🤣
hi there, manifestors are here to initiate and also love to get things done...so I wouldn't see that as conditioning. It's more that they aren't here to work in the same sustained way as a generator.
Another resourceful video! Thank you Karen! I have spent a lot of time and energy reading about manifesting, and there’s been a lot of frustration because a lot of the techniques don’t make sense or don’t work or don’t feel fluid. I’ve been slowly starting to realize that it may be a little different for me, and what you and those you interviewed shared helped me realize that I definitely need to take a different approach! So here’s to letting go of my fears and adopting a go get ‘em, with a special focus on self-care attitude! Thank you so much!
Wow. What an interesting reflection. It makes sense that you were drawn to the idea of 'manifestation'...but that the just 'attract' and let it happen thing wasn't working! Of course not! So yes, go make your visions happen!
It's amazing how similar aspects of your chart can feel compared to similar charts! And feel free to come and join us over on Facebook where I host a network called THE GRID - Network for Light Leaders ~ facebook.com/groups/thegridnetwork/ 🤗
I remember reading articles and pondering at age of 26, or so....what people earn, what are the careers. I could not align with any of them. Not because of resistance, but because of my "knowing". I wanted to be, not be forced. I found a quiet path of working with my hands, pursuing virtuosity and constancy. I seemed to acquire knowledge very easily. I learned best not to get too fired up about anything, lest I pursue it with a "vengeance"...LOL. Respect, kindness and honesty my best balancing tool. Also at times felt actual (physical) vibrations in my throat area. No fear just observing, it is true after all so why fight it.
Looks like my most formative years were shaped by 2 generator parents. Fun. I struggle ALOT with all that has been mentioned on a subconscious level, but thankfully have discovered my passion which is an antidote to this madness 🤣🤣🤣 now if only I can lose all the fears I have, I JUST might be an unstoppable wrecking ball of much needed change
I love it! may I suggest just going for it despite your fears...you only need to be slightly more committed to your passion than to your fear to tip the balance. That's my secret to getting my work into the world. If I waited until there was no fear, I would never have done anything.
@@karenmcmullen you are absolutely right! hahahah I'm trying 😅 🤣 I do it in bursts. Which makes sense being a Manifestor I guess. Taking care of myself, body and mental state usually helps with keeping some of the fears at bay. And alooooot of shadowwork.
i'm in my second year of university, and i find that i don't resonate with corporate hustle culture.. this is so refreshing for me :) thank you for sharing.
Thanks sharing these info with all the other manifestors totally resonated with me ! 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻 and yup I feel people are jealous of manifestor too.... when they don’t know it had not been easy !
I love the innocence in your question! Why does the manifestor have a repelling aura... it’s kind of an existential question. Like why do ducks fly and swim. On one level I could say, so that they can impact. Not all manifestors are kind... for example, I wouldnt say that ra Ur hu, the founder of human design was a kind person. As far as friendship goes, what is your profile number?
@@karenmcmullen also I did just watch his video this morning ... thinking that it was not quite like me .... 😉😉😉... your video definitely make more sense!
Amazing life changing insights into Manifestor energy. Thank you for your videos Karen and and the other Manifestor women. I am a single mum manifestor with a 6 year old boy who is a man gen and recently home educated. I need to figure out how to get my rest whilst making sure his needs are met. It's been challenging and I'm often exhausted. When I can master being a manifestor i think things will be easier. It's almost like he is a catalyst. This info is life changing. We are certainly conditioned to be generators and I feel so emotional right now as I think back to all the times I feel I have abused myself by not resting when I needed it. I also would like to be able to build succesful businesses but not go into a generator role like inhave before and burn out was the result. Do you have a support group Karen? X Do you have
Hi Charlotte, I do have group offerings and 1-1 coaching but I’m not sure I am the best support for you as my work centers more around helping people to expand their contribution and not so much parenting or family.
Again this is so accurate i cannot believe they are not teaching this in school, it is so important... And what is very interesting that it also suit description of my name
I would love to hear how manifestors function day to day, week to week, and month to month. I am a manifestor but struggle so much functioning. In my career I have typically found myself in the role of supervisor or boss but I am still expected to be tireless like a generator. I feel like my employees resent me because I don’t have the same 9-5 work grind like they do. On the other hand, those manifestors who are entrepreneurs, how do you make enough money to be able to follow your natural energy flows? I realize this ideation probably shows that I don’t trust my own energy flow yet. How did you come to trust your own energy?
I really resonated with what Erin was saying . I find myself doing the same thing now : creating the appearance of working hard but actually just finding ways to rest and recharge . There’s a pressure put on me by family to work and to do more , but at this time my heart is telling me to pursue creative endeavors . Is there a way to express these ideas to them in a way they can understand ? Or just a simple way in general ?
Hi Finesse 'Fin' Poole, there are a few approaches to take here. I can relate as I come from a very 'succesful' materialistic, capitalistic, hard-working family...and the path taht I have chosen certainly doesn't fit into those boxes. I find that the more I understand myself and value my own creativity, the easier it is to express it to my family. But I still don't get recognition and valuing from much of my extended family. I just feel good enough and strong enough in myself to be me. My immediate family is so supportive, but they weren't initially until they began to see the fruits of my labours and the value of what I was creating. So..1) you can continue to be sneaky 2) pursue your creative endeavours 3) give yourself a lot of love, knowing that the conditioning to 'work, work, work' is strong and your decision to move away from it will be challenging because the conditioning is internalized. I hope some of that helps. I'm glad you found your way here...I'm publishing a new manifestor video this Friday at 11 am EST. And I hope you saw the other videos in the Empowered Manifestor series. xo
Karen McMullen this was incredibly helpful and i appreciate you taking the time to welcome me in and provide support . i will definitely be watching this friday . you’ve got a subscribe from me . 🙏🏾✨
I was quite surprised to hear the point about sleeping alone. I had no idea how much I was being affected until I recently had the opportunity to do so. Looking back I see how I've always needed alone time to recharge and how the amount would extend into the day when I shared sleeping spaces with others...and how I would become irritable and/or not fully present if I didn't get that time.
Hi there, the best answer I can offer you is that we each condition eachother. Even if you are the same type and authority. To know precisely how, you'd have to look up your composite chart. But you can experiment and see the difference.
Yes, Human Design shows us our conditioning and no type is exempt from the conditioning. Since this is a video about manifestors, I didn’t talk about generators. Glad you freed yourself.
I watch them all! I found this particularly interesting because my mom is a manifestor and has always said “I envy your energy” yet I never felt that way about myself. I would feel privately drained and unfulfilled. But now I can understand where she was coming from- how she was being expected to behave like me in the world and it was incredibly draining and soul sucking. Human design has helped me see what can happen when different people’s unique energies are misused, and what distinguishes my needs vs others. Plus, where I feel like we all can relate on the planet.
What I find really challenging is that I’ve always tried to have more consistency in my life, but it seems that planning and being consistent may not be the manifestor nature? Any clarification on that? I have always overfilled my “plate” with more and more things to do, out of guilt of not doing enough, and anxiety of not being heard and really moving in the direction I wanted in life (due to choosing manipulative relationships). And after most of my life of doing that, I’m now finding myself just relaxing! Really relaxing and not doing anything that doesn’t feel right… but being an emotional manifestor I’m still confused about how to manage my energy and how/when to take action! May be awesome to have a video on each of the three types of manifestor? Thanks a ton for your work 🙏 With much gratitude Anastasia
Hi Anastasia! It sounds like you are experimenting just fine!! I love the sound of you just relaxing. Also, I wondered if you have an undefined ego or if you have childhood trauma that makes you feel like you have to overgive to be of value? Remember this is also a de conditioning/healing process.
Do any Manifestor have tips on what to do as a rest? I'm confused- I don't want to sit on my phone all the time but else is rest. I'm a teenager who grew up with a cellphone lol
resting should be NOT engaged with anything that overstimulates your mind (like being on your phone). Go for a long walk sit a park, or near the beach. Learn to meditate. Paint. Make music. Read a book. Take a nap.
How do you all communicate sleeping alone to partners who might prefer co-sleeping? And are any of you mothers who co-sleep with children? (I’ve never co-slept in my life and I’m wondering how to avoid it in the future 😂)
You could explain HD to them and have them understand your design versus theirs. I have compromised in the past by getting into the same bed for part of the evening or morning.
Lol throw in a whole thing with menstrual cycles and ALL women need downtime like Manifestors do. I guess for me it's double as a Manifestor woman and I'll be DAMNED if I do not bring some much needed change and put these generator women (and this planet) on a slight pause and a breather. Even ya'll need a break and I don't care how much life force you got. YOU 👏 NEED 👏 SACRED 👏 REST 👏 ONCE 👏 A 👏 MONTH!
@@karenmcmullen thank you, Karen! I am super passionate about this topic, about menstrual cycles, women's bodies and fighting hyper distorted masculine energy (I guess that would be the generator men that built this world 🤣🤣) that has run this world and is running it into the ground. Women along with everything else. It's also very personal to me as I had to watch my Generator (6/2) mom struggle with cancer for 5 years and still not slow down in any way shape or form and take care of her sacred vessel.. until she died an awful painful death in May from cancer that final spread all over and into the brain.
This is such a great observation and distinction. I think that this is true for manifestors in general...that they attract attention. I talk about that in the video about "Why People Envy the Manifestor." However, it still remains true that the aura is dense and repelling....and is saying "let me do my thing." I'm not sure how this relates for you.
I’m still in the process of deconditioning feeling guilty or “lazy” for resting/not working like a generator. I find it exhausting to work for long periods of time and am learning that working for short spurts and then resting prevents burnout. Thank you for sharing! 🙌🏻
Sounds like you can tune into your rhythm quite well...and then also witness the conditioning to do more. HUGS!
Karen McMullen I’m really trying to! The alternative is burnout, which has manifested as physical illness in the past. So I defs don’t want that haha. Hugs to you as well! 💗

Capitalism definitely plays into conditioning!

Even my boyfreinds would walk away from me just to get along with another girl not because she was better than me in enyway but just because there's somethings about me that guys just can't handle
I was lucky to have already learn since i was like 6 years old that i didnt have to be like enyone else i didnt have to do things like others did just to be like them even though it's wasen't easy at all

Maybe I didn't have willing generators around me 🤣
hi there, manifestors are here to initiate and also love to get things done...so I wouldn't see that as conditioning. It's more that they aren't here to work in the same sustained way as a generator.
Another resourceful video! Thank you Karen! I have spent a lot of time and energy reading about manifesting, and there’s been a lot of frustration because a lot of the techniques don’t make sense or don’t work or don’t feel fluid. I’ve been slowly starting to realize that it may be a little different for me, and what you and those you interviewed shared helped me realize that I definitely need to take a different approach! So here’s to letting go of my fears and adopting a go get ‘em, with a special focus on self-care attitude! Thank you so much!
Wow. What an interesting reflection. It makes sense that you were drawn to the idea of 'manifestation'...but that the just 'attract' and let it happen thing wasn't working! Of course not! So yes, go make your visions happen!
I am simply floored by how accurate this is…I could relate to every single thing these women talked about.
It's amazing how similar aspects of your chart can feel compared to similar charts! And feel free to come and join us over on Facebook where I host a network called THE GRID - Network for Light Leaders ~ facebook.com/groups/thegridnetwork/ 🤗
I remember reading articles and pondering at age of 26, or so....what people earn, what are the careers. I could not align with any of them. Not because of resistance, but because of my "knowing". I wanted to be, not be forced. I found a quiet path of working with my hands, pursuing virtuosity and constancy. I seemed to acquire knowledge very easily. I learned best not to get too fired up about anything, lest I pursue it with a "vengeance"...LOL. Respect, kindness and honesty my best balancing tool. Also at times felt actual (physical) vibrations in my throat area. No fear just observing, it is true after all so why fight it.
Looks like my most formative years were shaped by 2 generator parents. Fun. I struggle ALOT with all that has been mentioned on a subconscious level, but thankfully have discovered my passion which is an antidote to this madness 🤣🤣🤣 now if only I can lose all the fears I have, I JUST might be an unstoppable wrecking ball of much needed change
I love it! may I suggest just going for it despite your fears...you only need to be slightly more committed to your passion than to your fear to tip the balance. That's my secret to getting my work into the world. If I waited until there was no fear, I would never have done anything.
@@karenmcmullen you are absolutely right! hahahah I'm trying 😅 🤣 I do it in bursts. Which makes sense being a Manifestor I guess. Taking care of myself, body and mental state usually helps with keeping some of the fears at bay. And alooooot of shadowwork.
This makes so much sense.
💗💗💗 🙏🙏🙏
i'm in my second year of university, and i find that i don't resonate with corporate hustle culture.. this is so refreshing for me :) thank you for sharing.
I'm so glad! It's amazing how we can break free from societal expectations when we follow our design!
Thanks sharing these info with all the other manifestors totally resonated with me ! 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻 and yup I feel people are jealous of manifestor too.... when they don’t know it had not been easy !
I love the innocence in your question! Why does the manifestor have a repelling aura... it’s kind of an existential question. Like why do ducks fly and swim. On one level I could say, so that they can impact.
Not all manifestors are kind... for example, I wouldnt say that ra Ur hu, the founder of human design was a kind person.
As far as friendship goes, what is your profile number?
@@karenmcmullen I am new to the chart and
Yes learning .....can you direct me into where to look at ?
@@karenmcmullen also I did just watch his video this morning ... thinking that it was not quite like me .... 😉😉😉... your video definitely make more sense!
@@adashortbread Depending on where you got your chart, there should be something that says "Profile" like 1/3, 4/6, 5/1, 6/2, 2/4 etc.
@@karenmcmullen I am 2/4 hermit / opportunist !
Thank you so much for these lovely Interviews! Finally time to live the truth 🙏🙏🙏
You are welcome!!! YES! Go for it!
Totally resonated with me. Thanks for posting this content.
Hi Contoured Living! My pleasure. Thank you for watching and commenting. Did you see the other two videos in the Empowered Manifestor series?
Here's the link! ruclips.net/p/PLB3ycVDt6MYjdtYc1UWuWY8o4dgPB4_5 Also, I checked out your channel...you have so many subscribers!
Amazing life changing insights into Manifestor energy. Thank you for your videos Karen and and the other Manifestor women. I am a single mum manifestor with a 6 year old boy who is a man gen and recently home educated. I need to figure out how to get my rest whilst making sure his needs are met. It's been challenging and I'm often exhausted. When I can master being a manifestor i think things will be easier. It's almost like he is a catalyst. This info is life changing. We are certainly conditioned to be generators and I feel so emotional right now as I think back to all the times I feel I have abused myself by not resting when I needed it. I also would like to be able to build succesful businesses but not go into a generator role like inhave before and burn out was the result. Do you have a support group Karen? X
Do you have
Hi Charlotte, I do have group offerings and 1-1 coaching but I’m not sure I am the best support for you as my work centers more around helping people to expand their contribution and not so much parenting or family.
Again this is so accurate i cannot believe they are not teaching this in school, it is so important...
And what is very interesting that it also suit description of my name
If only school was intended to help us live into our true potential. YES. Welcome to the crazy world of Human Design.
@@karenmcmullen yes now i am binging on your videos like crazy, you are truly gifted content maker
Lol!!! That’s awesome 🤩 thank you!!!!!
I’m doing a live masterclass right now on Facebook that you might enjoy. Www.karenmcmullen.ca/transmission
Thank YOU these videos are so useful, I make sense to me now 🥳🙏👍🦋🌱🌱💗

I would love to hear how manifestors function day to day, week to week, and month to month. I am a manifestor but struggle so much functioning. In my career I have typically found myself in the role of supervisor or boss but I am still expected to be tireless like a generator. I feel like my employees resent me because I don’t have the same 9-5 work grind like they do. On the other hand, those manifestors who are entrepreneurs, how do you make enough money to be able to follow your natural energy flows? I realize this ideation probably shows that I don’t trust my own energy flow yet. How did you come to trust your own energy?
I really resonated with what Erin was saying . I find myself doing the same thing now : creating the appearance of working hard but actually just finding ways to rest and recharge . There’s a pressure put on me by family to work and to do more , but at this time my heart is telling me to pursue creative endeavors . Is there a way to express these ideas to them in a way they can understand ? Or just a simple way in general ?
Hi Finesse 'Fin' Poole, there are a few approaches to take here. I can relate as I come from a very 'succesful' materialistic, capitalistic, hard-working family...and the path taht I have chosen certainly doesn't fit into those boxes. I find that the more I understand myself and value my own creativity, the easier it is to express it to my family. But I still don't get recognition and valuing from much of my extended family. I just feel good enough and strong enough in myself to be me. My immediate family is so supportive, but they weren't initially until they began to see the fruits of my labours and the value of what I was creating. So..1) you can continue to be sneaky 2) pursue your creative endeavours 3) give yourself a lot of love, knowing that the conditioning to 'work, work, work' is strong and your decision to move away from it will be challenging because the conditioning is internalized. I hope some of that helps. I'm glad you found your way here...I'm publishing a new manifestor video this Friday at 11 am EST. And I hope you saw the other videos in the Empowered Manifestor series. xo
Karen McMullen this was incredibly helpful and i appreciate you taking the time to welcome me in and provide support . i will definitely be watching this friday . you’ve got a subscribe from me . 🙏🏾✨
I was quite surprised to hear the point about sleeping alone. I had no idea how much I was being affected until I recently had the opportunity to do so. Looking back I see how I've always needed alone time to recharge and how the amount would extend into the day when I shared sleeping spaces with others...and how I would become irritable and/or not fully present if I didn't get that time.
That makes so much sense!
Sleeping alone is always mentioned for manifestors, what is the effect of 2 manifestors both emotional solar plexus sleeping together.
Hi there, the best answer I can offer you is that we each condition eachother. Even if you are the same type and authority. To know precisely how, you'd have to look up your composite chart. But you can experiment and see the difference.
As a generator…we don’t like the conditioning either. For too long I was enslaved for my life force energy. Time for a change for all of us.
Yes, Human Design shows us our conditioning and no type is exempt from the conditioning. Since this is a video about manifestors, I didn’t talk about generators. Glad you freed yourself.
I watch them all! I found this particularly interesting because my mom is a manifestor and has always said “I envy your energy” yet I never felt that way about myself. I would feel privately drained and unfulfilled. But now I can understand where she was coming from- how she was being expected to behave like me in the world and it was incredibly draining and soul sucking. Human design has helped me see what can happen when different people’s unique energies are misused, and what distinguishes my needs vs others. Plus, where I feel like we all can relate on the planet.
Thank You 😊
Hi Yasmin! Thanks for stopping by and letting me know you enjoyed the video. :)
As a Manifestor is it normal to want to spend majority of time alone in your own world due to feeling misunderstood by most ppl?
Regulation is important, it may feel protective to isolate
What I find really challenging is that I’ve always tried to have more consistency in my life, but it seems that planning and being consistent may not be the manifestor nature? Any clarification on that? I have always overfilled my “plate” with more and more things to do, out of guilt of not doing enough, and anxiety of not being heard and really moving in the direction I wanted in life (due to choosing manipulative relationships). And after most of my life of doing that, I’m now finding myself just relaxing! Really relaxing and not doing anything that doesn’t feel right… but being an emotional manifestor I’m still confused about how to manage my energy and how/when to take action!
May be awesome to have a video on each of the three types of manifestor?
Thanks a ton for your work 🙏
With much gratitude
Anastasia
Hi Anastasia! It sounds like you are experimenting just fine!! I love the sound of you just relaxing. Also, I wondered if you have an undefined ego or if you have childhood trauma that makes you feel like you have to overgive to be of value? Remember this is also a de conditioning/healing process.
Do any Manifestor have tips on what to do as a rest? I'm confused- I don't want to sit on my phone all the time but else is rest. I'm a teenager who grew up with a cellphone lol
resting should be NOT engaged with anything that overstimulates your mind (like being on your phone). Go for a long walk sit a park, or near the beach. Learn to meditate. Paint. Make music. Read a book. Take a nap.
How do you all communicate sleeping alone to partners who might prefer co-sleeping? And are any of you mothers who co-sleep with children? (I’ve never co-slept in my life and I’m wondering how to avoid it in the future 😂)
You could explain HD to them and have them understand your design versus theirs. I have compromised in the past by getting into the same bed for part of the evening or morning.
Lol throw in a whole thing with menstrual cycles and ALL women need downtime like Manifestors do. I guess for me it's double as a Manifestor woman and I'll be DAMNED if I do not bring some much needed change and put these generator women (and this planet) on a slight pause and a breather. Even ya'll need a break and I don't care how much life force you got. YOU 👏 NEED 👏 SACRED 👏 REST 👏 ONCE 👏 A 👏 MONTH!
Love it! I am with you!!!!!! This is a wonderful message!
@@karenmcmullen thank you, Karen! I am super passionate about this topic, about menstrual cycles, women's bodies and fighting hyper distorted masculine energy (I guess that would be the generator men that built this world 🤣🤣) that has run this world and is running it into the ground. Women along with everything else. It's also very personal to me as I had to watch my Generator (6/2) mom struggle with cancer for 5 years and still not slow down in any way shape or form and take care of her sacred vessel.. until she died an awful painful death in May from cancer that final spread all over and into the brain.
I have burnout 😂
Wishing you some good rest and realignment!
Side note: does anyone know how Western Astrology fits into this?
There is quite a lot of overlap but I myself have never understood astrology well
i am an emotional manifestor but my aura is not repeling actually i am a people magnet why?
This is such a great observation and distinction. I think that this is true for manifestors in general...that they attract attention. I talk about that in the video about "Why People Envy the Manifestor." However, it still remains true that the aura is dense and repelling....and is saying "let me do my thing." I'm not sure how this relates for you.
