A new way to look at your Human Design Incarnation Cross.
Are You Following Your Love or Your Direction?
A new way to look at your Human Design Incarnation Cross.
Most people in Human Design look for their "Incarnation Cross" to find their life purpose. But what if you actually have two purposes working together?
According to my (John Busker) research, we carry distinct energetic "blueprints" that need to be integrated for us to feel truly satisfied:
-
The Love Cross: This answers the question, "Who should I be?" It’s about your behavior, how you treat your body, how you relate, and how you express care for the world.
-
The Direction Cross: This answers the question, "What should I do?" It focus on your skills, your creative ideals, organization, and how you contribute to society.
The "Steering Wheel" Metaphor
Think of your life as a car. Busker suggests that when you surround what you do with love, you naturally go in the right direction. Conversely, when you are moving in the right direction, your actions become a natural expression of love. They aren't separate; they are two sides of the same coin.
Identifying a Chart as "Love" or "Direction"
Use the Locks and Keys – The Trigram Patterns as a reference.
-
Locks 10, 15, 25, or 46: A chart is a "Love/Relationships" chart if the Sun/Earth gate Keys fit these Lock gates.
-
Locks 1, 2, 7, or 13: A chart is a "Direction" chart if the Sun/Earth gate Keys fit these Lock gates.
A small persentage of charts will have a dual "Love" and "Direction" nature, as the Sun/Earth gates on Persoanlity and Design side fit different Locks.
Why This Matters Now
If you've ever felt like your "official" Human Design chart doesn't tell the whole story, it might be because your hidden (until now) Cross ("Love" or "Direction") is calling for your attention. By understanding both, you can move from frustration, anger, and bitterness to a state of satisfaction, peace and success.
