What Is G Center in Human Design: Identity and Direction?

The G center (also called the Self center) holds the themes of identity, love, and direction. When defined, it provides a consistent sense of self and orientation; when open, identity and direction are more fluid and context-sensitive.

How Is Human Design Center Determined?

Contemporary interpretive framework. Human Design is a modern synthesis drawing on the I Ching, astrology, Kabbalah, and the Hindu chakra system. It is not a medical or psychological assessment.

A center is defined (colored in) when at least one gate within it is activated by a planetary position in your chart and that activation forms a channel connection to another defined gate. A center is open (white) when no such channel connection runs through it. The nine centers map loosely onto the Hindu chakra system but follow the channel-and-gate circuit logic of Human Design specifically.
