Human Design
The 12 Human Design profiles
In Human Design, your profile is two numbers, like 2/4 or 5/1. The first is the line of your conscious (Personality) Sun, the second the line of your unconscious (Design) Sun. Together they describe the role you tend to play and how you learn.

Right angle, juxtaposition and left angle
The seven right angle profiles, from 1/3 to 4/6, are described as a personal path: your life is mostly your own process. The one juxtaposition profile, 4/1, is described as a fixed, steady path. The four left angle profiles, 5/1, 5/2, 6/2 and 6/3, are described as a path closely tied to other people.

Questions
How many profiles are there in Human Design?
Twelve, made from six lines. Each profile pairs the line of your Personality Sun with the line of your Design Sun.
How do I find my Human Design profile?
It is shown on any Human Design chart, calculated from your birth date, time and place. The first number is your conscious line, the second your unconscious line.
Which line is conscious and which is unconscious?
The first number, from your Personality Sun, is the side you are aware of. The second, from your Design Sun, is the side others often see first.
Can my profile change?
No. It comes from your birth data. Birth time matters, though: if your time is off, the profile on your chart can be wrong.
