The Human Design system acknowledges that individuals perceive their environment and make sense of the world in different ways, resulting in a unique experiential reality. It identifies six Design Senses that influence our perception, interpretation, and interaction with the world around us.
The first sense, Smell, is not just about our physical ability to detect scents. In a broader sense, it involves the recognition of underlying patterns and energy signatures, akin to “smelling” a situation or person. This sense can guide individuals toward or away from particular environments or experiences based on the subtle “scents” they pick up.
Taste is another Design Sense that extends beyond our physical ability to discern different flavors. In the context of Human Design, Taste refers to our discernment and preference for certain kinds of experiences, people, or environments. This sense can guide us towards what is correct for us and help us “savor” life’s experiences more fully.
Outer Vision represents our capacity to see the bigger picture. Individuals with this sense have a knack for viewing situations from a broad perspective, seeing patterns, trends, and larger contexts. They are often able to discern the best path forward by taking a comprehensive view of the situation.
On the other hand, Inner Vision refers to an individual’s inner awareness or intuition. This Design Sense involves an internal seeing, such as visualizing, imagining, or dreaming. Those with a keen Inner Vision often have strong intuitive insights or visions about the future or hidden aspects of situations.
Feeling refers to an individual’s sensitivity to the emotional climate or the ‘feel’ of situations or environments. People with a strong Feeling sense often have a heightened awareness of others’ emotions and the emotional undertones in an environment. They might make decisions based on their “gut feelings” or the emotional “vibes” they get.
Lastly, the sense of Touch is related to our tangible interaction with the world. This involves physical touch but also refers to the sense of connection and impact we have with others and the environment. Individuals with a strong sense of Touch might be highly affected by the physical and energetic ‘touch’ of their environments or interactions.
In Human Design, understanding your Design Senses can provide profound insights into how you best interact with the world, absorb information, and make decisions. This self-knowledge can guide you towards living in a way that is more aligned with your authentic self.
