Human Design
Your type, authority and profile, read from two moments around your birth.
Solid lines: birth. Dashed lines: design, about three months before.
The chart
Your birth time isn't known, so this uses noon. Values marked time-sensitive change during that day, and faded channels may not be yours.

Two moments make a chart: the minute you were born, and the minute about three months before when the Sun stood 88° further back. Thirteen bodies are placed at each, the Sun, Earth, Moon, both nodes and the eight planets.
The wheel of the zodiac is cut into 64 gates, one for each I Ching hexagram, and each gate into six lines. A channel is defined when both of its gates are lit, and a defined channel defines the two centres at its ends. The type and authority follow from which centres are defined and how they join.
Human Design was set out by Ra Uru Hu (Jovian Archive). The short notes here are our own words, not his texts.
The nine centres
A defined centre works the same way all the time; an open one takes in what is around it.

Gates and lines
Where each body stood, as a gate and one of its six lines, and where it is today.

Personality is the moment you were born; design is when the Sun stood 88° earlier. Today shows where each body is now and when it next moves on, and a gate of yours lit again today is marked transit.
