In this episode of Human Design Hive, Dana and Hali dive into a refreshing perspective on defined gates in your Human Design chart. If you've ever felt boxed in by gate descriptions or wondered why your experience doesn't match what you've read about your gates, you're in the right place!

What You'll Discover:

- Why your defined gates represent consistent potential rather than fixed traits

- How conditioning, environment, and experiences affect how your gates express

- The difference between genotype (potential) and phenotype (expression) in both physical DNA and energetic DNA

- Real-life examples of how the same gate can express differently between people

Defined gates are like radio stations that are always broadcasting, but how you tune into that frequency can vary. Just like physical DNA doesn't always express the same way in everyone who carries it, your energetic DNA (Human Design) has fluidity in how it manifests.

The conversation includes examples of how gates like Gate 5 (Rhythm), Gate 51 (Shock), and Gate 64 (Abstraction) can express differently based on your unique circumstances and awareness.

Key Takeaways:

1. Your defined gates represent consistent access to certain energies, not a fixed expression

2. How these energies manifest depends on your type, strategy, authority, and lived experiences

3. There's no "right way" to express a gate—your expression is uniquely yours

Your Next Steps:
