Googling parts of your Human Design chart? I got ya! Let me explain what this strange series of numbers and words in the title mean so you can get on with being your awesome self. Yeah?
First: Let's look at the numbers (aka your Profile)
1/3 Emotional Manifesting Generator
The number on your Human Design chart that looks like a fraction is what we call your Profile. If you think of your life as a movie then your Profile is like the character that you play. It tells us some important things about your innate personality.
It shows us how you naturally interact with other people and with life. At least, it shows us one layer of info about these things as other parts of your Human Design chart have more layers that also affect your personality.
Your Profile is made up of two numbers between 1-6 with (strangely) only 12 possible Profiles globally. The Profile we’re looking at in this post is the one in the blog post title. If that’s your Profile then let's look at that now!
The 1/3 Profile is the beginning of the evolutionary process. If this is your profile you are here to play a very important role for the rest of humanity as you are ultimately here to become a go-to expert in your field.
The 1st Line in your Profile (the “1”) causes you to be driven to gather information on a topic that interests you so that you can create a solid foundation for yourself. Hence the first part of your Profile name, the “Investigator”.
The name used in traditional Human Design for the 3rd Line Profile is the “Martyr”. It’s a less-than-ideal name that many dislike but in short, what it means in this context is that you’re not here to automatically believe what you’ve been told. You won’t just take someone’s advice without testing it out for yourself.
Thus, yours is a two-part process (that repeats endlessly): learn/test, learn/test, learn/test, etc
You’re not ready to be the expert the world is craving until you’ve done this dance many, many, many times over several years. When you feel truly masterful then it is time to share what you’ve discovered. Then you’ll naturally step into that leadership role as an authority people seek out and respect.
Second: Let's look at the first term (aka your Inner Authority)

The term Inner Authority acknowledges that you have your own innate authority within you. That is, you are designed to be the expert on your own life. It tells us how you’re designed to make your best (that is, most correct and aligned) decisions in your life.
While there are a few factors that influence how each individual person is designed to make decisions, one of the most important ones is the info contained in your Inner Authority.
The one or two words right after the Profile numbers (as shown in this blog post title) is the Inner Authority. If this is yours then let me explain what that means, in a simple way, right now.
Emotional Inner Authority does not mean you’re designed to make decisions based on your emotions or that you’re necessarily an overly emotional person. It means that you need to reach emotional clarity or neutrality before you know if the thing is a ‘yes’ or a ‘no’ for you.
Forget trying to make on-the-spot decisions; you’ll end up regretting it later.
Try sleeping on it or at the very least, wait a full day or two. You’ll know it’s time to choose when the correct decision is obvious.
Third: Let's look at the last term (aka your Type)

The third and final part of that shorthand label we use for your Human Design is what we call Type. Type refers to how your aura (or energy field) relates to others and the world around you.
It can show you a huge amount about how to make any and all relationships work better and is often the first thing people will ask you if they know anything about Human Design.
There are five Types in Human Design (though many teachers choose to split the world’s population into four Types instead of five. At this point in my Human Design journey, having heard endless arguments from both sides of the fence, I’ve come to the conclusion that neither is perfect and I simply choose to focus on what’s useful).
Each Type group is here to do something a bit (or a lot!) different from the other Types. And that’s perfect because we can’t all do the same thing. After all, how boring would that be?!
You know you’re a Manifesting Generator if you’ve had people tell you to sit still, or stop talking so much, or just focus on one thing and hearing these things has driven you absolutely nuts!!!
Please know you’re not here to be a quiet little creature in the corner of a room. You’re here to shine, my love, shine!
You’re here to do many things, big things, all the things. And ideally, only the things that you love, love, love that feel like fun, fun, fun!
Sound good?
Great! Because doing so is not only good for you, it’s good for the rest of us too. When you are doing the things that feel like so much fun for you, your powerful expansive energy lights us up too!
The fastest way to create this powerful, playful life?
Stop trying to make things happen and start responding to what life brings you.

While AI is useful for many things it's still not very good at explaining the depth and nuance of Human Design. Instead, human beings who have been learning about and experimenting with the Human Design system for 10+ years are much better teachers of this content.
