Where Do My Fears and Doubts Come From?

Many of your fears and doubts do not actually belong to you. Your Human Design chart shows you which fears originate from your Open Centers - absorbed, amplified energy from others that you mistake for your own.

The Not-Self Themes of the Open Centers

Each Open Center has a specific Not-Self Theme - a question that unconsciously drives you and creates fear:

Open Head Center: "I must find the answer to questions that are none of my business"
Open Ajna: "I must be certain about everything"
Open Throat: "I must attract attention to myself"
Open G Center: "I must have a fixed identity and direction"
Open Heart/Ego: "I must prove myself to myself and others"
Open Sacral: "I must keep going"
Open Solar Plexus: "I must avoid conflict and please everyone"
Open Spleen: "I must hold on to things that are not good for me"
Open Root: "I must get everything done as quickly as possible"

From Fear to Wisdom

The good news: each Open Center is not only a source of potential fear but also a place of great wisdom. When you learn to recognize and release the absorbed energy, your Open Centers transform into organs of perception.

An open Solar Plexus Center can become a source of deep emotional wisdom - you can read the feelings of a room like no one else. An open Ajna can become a remarkable ability to understand different perspectives.

The key is not to hold on to these energies. Observe, learn from them, and let go. Your Open Centers are windows, not doors - you do not need to keep the energy.
