Step-by-step instructions for those who just discovered Human Design — from first calculation to the 7-year experiment.

What to Look at First?
Don't try to understand everything at once! Start with three things:
1. Your Type
There are 5 types: Generator, Manifesting Generator, Projector, Manifestor, Reflector. Type determines your aura and how you interact with the world.
2. Your Strategy
- Generator/MG: Wait to respond
- Projector: Wait for invitation/recognition
- Manifestor: Inform before acting
- Reflector: Wait a lunar cycle (28 days)
3. Your Authority
Authority is your inner navigator for decisions:
