"Closed and Repelling"? - Make Your Aura Your Ally

When I first read that the Manifestor aura was closed and repelling, I was appalled. Repelling?!? I wanted people to like me, not push them away.

I see Manifestor trip up about these words time and again, especially when they’re new to Human Design.

Closed and repelling is a mouthful. Here’s a different way to think about it.

Think of the Manifestor Aura Like a Snow Plow

I've found it more helpful to compare the Manifestor aura to a snow plow. It pushes snow flakes aside to clear the road for traffic.

Our aura clears our path for our initiations. 

Because people feel the plow effect, it's important to let those in our path know where we're going and what we're doing. It's uncomfortable to - even just on an energetic level - feel like there's something pushing you aside. 

In real life, snow plows are thunderously loud and have an orange blinking light. You see and hear them ahead of time and can get out of their way. Same with our aura.

Depending on the context, I've found hyper transparency in alignment with my authority very helpful. I say what's on my mind, even if it's a silly thing. People can feel there's something stewing in there, anyways. I even say hi loudly when I enter a store and feel it’s the correct thing to do.

The more you inform effectively, the more the aura will do the talking for you. It literally clears the path for us, while we sit in the vehicle (snow plow), going merrily along our way.

Our aura is our ally. It's here to help us.
