Your Human Design chart, in 30 seconds.
Your exact bodygraph, type, strategy and authority, calculated to the minute with the Swiss Ephemeris. Then see what today's sky is doing to it. Free, no sign-up.
What you get
- Type and strategy: Generator, Projector, Manifestor, Manifesting Generator or Reflector, and the one way you are built to engage with life.
- Authority and profile: the part of you to trust with decisions, and the two lines that shape how you learn and how others see you.
- Transits on your chart: where today's Sun and Moon land in your bodygraph, and any channel the sky completes for you, for today only.
Birth time matters more here than in most systems. The design side of a chart is calculated roughly 88 solar degrees before birth, so an hour of error can move gates and sometimes change the type outright. If you do not know your time, the calculator uses noon and tells you so.
Questions
Is this Human Design chart calculator really free?
Yes. You get your full Bodygraph, your type, authority, profile and definition, plus today's planetary transits drawn onto your chart. There is no payment and no account to create.
What do I need to calculate my Human Design chart?
Your birth date, your birth time and the city you were born in. Birth time matters more than people expect: a few hours can change your profile lines and sometimes your authority, so a birth certificate is worth checking.
What if I do not know my birth time?
You can still calculate a chart. Tick the box on the form and we use midday. Your centres and channels will usually still be right, but your profile lines and authority may be wrong, so treat those two with caution until you find the exact time.
Why does my chart need my birth city?
Only to work out the timezone, so your birth time can be converted to the exact moment in universal time. Human Design gates come from the position of the planets at one instant, so unlike astrological houses there is no latitude or longitude involved.
What is the difference between a Human Design chart and a birth chart?
An astrology birth chart maps planets into signs and houses. A Human Design chart maps them onto 64 gates and nine centres, and it is calculated twice: once at birth for your conscious Personality and once about three months before birth for your unconscious Design. The two systems share the same astronomy and do very different things with it.
What are defined and undefined centres?
A defined centre is connected by a complete channel and works consistently, whatever is going on around you. An undefined or open centre has no fixed way of working and amplifies whatever is nearby, which is where most conditioning comes from and where you eventually become wise.
How do I read my Human Design chart?
Start with your type and strategy, because that is how you are built to engage with anything. Then your authority, which is how to make decisions. Then look at which centres are defined and which are open. Gates, channels and the incarnation cross are worth exploring once those three are familiar.
Does my Human Design chart change over time?
Your chart itself never changes, because it is fixed to the moment you were born. What changes is the sky. Planets keep transiting the same 64 gates and can temporarily complete channels in your chart, which is why some days feel very different from others.
