The 5 Human Design types

It describes how your energy is designed to engage with the world — how you make decisions, where you find satisfaction, and how you avoid burnout.

The five types
What your type tells you
Your strategy— the way you’re designed to engage with life so that doors open instead of closing (respond, wait for the invitation, inform, or sample).
Your signature— the feeling that tells you you’re living true to your design (satisfaction, success, peace), versus the not-self theme (frustration, bitterness, anger) when you’re off track.
Your full chart — beyond your type, Birth Codex calculates your authority, profile and 23 cosmic systems for a complete picture.
