We’ve built AI Ra — a language model like Chat GPT, but trained exclusively on Ra’s teachings. It can answer your Human Design questions, explain chart mechanics, and offer guidance.
Strategy and Authority Leads to Uniqueness
Jun 22, 2021

The determination of your body is a genetic predisposition to form differentiation. What that means very simply is that each and every one of us is born to be unique.
I don't mean that as a kind of superficial cliche because it's not. And I don't mean that in the obvious that we seem to look relatively different from each other. I am talking about what Strategy and Authority in Human Design leads us to. It leads us to our uniqueness through our unique Authority, through being different.
We are here to be only correct in being different and being different in the sense that we fulfill our genetic predisposition. If you want to see what that is in a chart, it is anything that you have activated; everything about the activations in your design is that they are the foundation of what is genetically different about you. This is what we operate through; that is, what is fixed in us.
Openness Is a Receptor to Homogenization
But we have a dilemma. And the dilemma is that there is so much openness in our designs, and it is that openness that is a receptor to the other, and to conditioning. It’s what pulls us away from our true nature. It pulls us towards homogenization, the opposite of differentiation.
When you are homogenized, what that means is that you take in the diet that's part of your culture, that you eat in the environment that your culture dictates. The way in which you live your life is conditioned by the judgments and the conditioning that are made by others. Every human being in their openness, if they do not operate correctly, if they do not have a strategy, are pulled towards this homogenization, and it pulls you away from the body that is yours. We each have a unique form and we have a unique potential to live out that form.
Internal Determination
Now, there's a third thing here called Internal Determination. It's what we're going to look at today because it is the focus of our work. Internal Determination is something that is deeply significant to any form that is alive. That is, it is about what we need to maintain our well-being, what we need to maintain our existence at its most fundamental level.
At its most fundamental level, what that means for us as human beings is how we digest. Everything about PHS and the alignment to what is correct for you begins with digestion.
