Human Design chart FAQ
What is a Human Design chart?
A Human Design chart, or BodyGraph, maps your birth data onto nine centers, 64 gates, and 36 channels. It combines a conscious calculation at birth with an unconscious calculation from about 88 days earlier.
Do I need my birth time for Human Design?
Yes. Gate and line activations change through the day, and your Type, Profile, and Authority can shift with them, so an exact birth time gives the most reliable BodyGraph.
What are the Human Design Types?
The five Types are Manifestor, Generator, Manifesting Generator, Projector, and Reflector. Each comes with a Strategy that describes how to engage opportunities with the least resistance.
How is Human Design different from astrology?
Human Design uses the same birth moment but maps planetary positions onto gates and centers in a BodyGraph rather than signs and houses. In the app you can view both systems side by side from one birth profile.
Is this Human Design chart accurate?
This page explains the five Human Design Types. Your personal BodyGraph and full result are available in the paid Cosmic app. Cosmic Copilot uses deterministic VSOP87 calculations and IANA timezone data. Supported planetary outputs are compared with astro.com reference values in automated tests using a 0.5° tolerance; this is a test threshold, not a universal accuracy guarantee.
