Ajna center →
Also: Ajna
Human Design’s symbolic center for conceptualization and mental processing, not a neurological assessment.
Word origin, evidence & sources
Ājñā means command, order, or instruction. The name is borrowed from chakra terminology into the system's chart vocabulary.
This center is associated with concepts and mental processing in the teaching. Its definition is calculated from channels; it cannot establish intelligence, cognitive rigidity or the validity of a person's beliefs.
Ego center →
Also: Heart center · Will center
Human Design’s symbolic will and material-resources center, counted among its four motors.
Word origin, evidence & sources
Ego is Latin for I. Human Design borrows the psychological self-word for its will-related center.
The system associates this motor center with will and material resources. Its channel-derived status does not measure cardiac function, moral character, financial competence or the strength of a person's commitments.
G center →
Human Design’s symbolic center of identity, love and direction, not a measured anatomical structure.
Word origin, evidence & sources
G is the center's established label. The cited teaching associates it with identity and direction; no unsupported expansion of the letter is asserted.
Identity, love and direction are themes assigned to this graph location. Its calculated status offers a contemplation prompt, not evidence about whether someone has a stable identity, can love or has a predetermined life direction.
Head center →
Also: Head
Human Design’s symbolic inspiration and questioning center; its chart status does not measure the brain.
Word origin, evidence & sources
Head is the inherited English name for the upper body part. The chart places its pressure-center symbol at the head position.
Human Design assigns inspiration and questioning to this part of its graph. Channel rules determine its status, but that status does not measure brain activity or establish how often a person experiences ideas or uncertainty.
Root center →
Also: Root
Human Design’s symbolic pressure and drive center, classified as a motor; chart labels do not diagnose stress.
Word origin, evidence & sources
Root names a plant's anchoring part, extended to a source or base. The chart applies the grounding metaphor at its lower end.
Pressure and drive are assigned themes, while channels determine the center's status. A defined or undefined Root does not establish a person's stress level, hormonal activity or ability to work under pressure.
Sacral center →
Also: Sacral
Human Design’s symbolic response and sustaining-energy center; its definition is central to Generator classification.
Word origin, evidence & sources
Sacral refers to the sacrum, a name inherited from Latin os sacrum, sacred bone. The chart repurposes the anatomical location.
Sacral definition has a decisive role in Generator classification. The structural result is checkable, while claims about sustainable energy or bodily responses are interpretive and cannot be read as measurements of physical capacity.
Solar Plexus center →
Also: Solar Plexus
Human Design’s symbolic emotional center, treated as both a motor and an awareness center.
Word origin, evidence & sources
Plexus is Latin for a braid or network; solar refers to the radiating, sun-like arrangement of the nerve network whose name is borrowed.
Human Design assigns emotional themes and priority in its authority hierarchy to this center. That chart rule does not assess emotional health or demonstrate a particular emotional rhythm in the person being described.
Splenic center →
Also: Spleen center
Human Design’s symbolic instinct and present-moment awareness center; it is not a test of immune function.
Word origin, evidence & sources
Splenic means relating to the spleen, from Greek splen through Latin. The diagram borrows the organ's name for a center.
The center's themes involve instinct and immediate awareness within Human Design. Its channel pattern does not test the spleen, immunity or the accuracy of an intuition; those are different kinds of claims from graph classification.
Throat center →
Also: Throat
Human Design’s symbolic expression and manifestation center; connections to motors help determine type.
Word origin, evidence & sources
Throat is an inherited English body-part word. It names the diagram's expression center by its bodily location.
The teaching associates this center with expression, and its connections help classify type. A motor path is a property of the diagram; it does not directly measure communication skill or a person's capacity to make things happen.
