Michael Jackson as a Reflector

 

Reflector

Reflectors are the wisest people among us and they are the rarest of the four types.

You have nothing fixed in your nature to rely upon (none of the nine centers are colored in) and your life rhythms are more influenced than other types by a celestial body, the moon. Because you are only open, you take other people in deeply. You are a pure reflection of your environment…you are the weather report.

Key question: “Can I be myself?” Percentage of World Population: 1%

Famous Reflectors: Uri Geller, Dostoyevsky, Vladimir Horowitz, Roslyn Carter.

Strategy: The greatest pain for the Reflector is disappointment, the disappointment of not being seen. The strategy for the Reflector depends on the vigilant discernment of their environment. Waiting is the key…(the 28 day cycle of the moon.)

Reflectors are only 1% of the population. They are here to reflect the community that they live in, so the most important aspect of their lives is where they live and who they are living with. If the community is supportive of them they will blossom and flourish.

Although Reflectors have no defined centres they do not reflect each centre as other types do. Rather, they reflect the whole body of people. If they are living in their “not-self”, that is, not their truth, then they will reflect those negative aspects. A child Reflector in a problem school will appear to be the major problem and will be the child that is punished. This little Reflector feels the undercurrent of rebellion and acts it out, whilst the rest of the children in the class will be the ones who are actually the rebels.

The ability to reflect the whole and not each centre gives the Reflector a strength that is unusual from other types. Although they frequently find themselves in difficult situations, they are able to cope, especially when they realise the reasons that they are having those experiences are because they are Reflectors. It is particularly important for you to understand what this means; Reflectors feel a huge sense of relief knowing their design.

Reflectors have no decision making centre. With no definition at all, there is not even a head centre to provide the logical choices. We learn from Human Design that we should never make a decision from the head, even though the head will try hard to be in charge. Generators can rely on their sacral centre, those with defined spleens can be spontaneous and those with defined solar plexus centres need to wait for absolute clarity before making any decision. As a Reflector, you have to wait the twenty-eight days of the lunar cycle before you can make a decision.
