It sounds simple. Your thoughts create your reality. Choose a thought, let the thought evoke a positive feeling within you and within minutes you manifest another thought and another thought to raise your vibration… until you manifest what you want.
The problem with this approach is that not everyone is designed the same. Some of us—actually the majority 90%—have undefined or open Crown and Mind/Ajna Centers (white/not colored-in). This means that you take-in and amplify the energy of other people in these Energy Centers. (The two Energy Centers at the top of your Human Design Birth Chart process Inspiration and Thinking, respectively. Learn more about the 9 Energy Centers in your Human Design.)
Note: If you are among the 10% percentage of people, you have a defined Channel that moves energy from the Crown to the Mind/Ajna Center (colored-in). You think in a reliable and consistent way. If these energy centers are defined/colored-in, portions of this article don’t directly apply to you. It is likely to be important information for someone you know and will impact your ability to raise your vibration as you interact with others in your business relationships and/or in your personal life.
Undefined/Open Crown and Mind/Ajna Energy Centers
For those of us that are undefined or open (white/not colored-in) in these Energy Centers, it takes awareness of your amplified energy from other people to raise your vibration and control your manifestations. Moreover, the re-actions you have to these energies have become deeply ingrained from early childhood experiences, which make your ability to control what you manifest difficult. Over time, you have come to believe that the limiting thoughts of other people are your own. Yet, it is simply a lack of awareness of where the energy is actually from that lowers your vibration.
What does this look like? Each energy center has common re-actions to cope with the deep conditioning that occurs during childhood:
- Crown — Thinking About Things that Do Not Matter
- Mind/Ajna — Pretending to Be Certain
The mystery is further complicated as you are unlikely to understand the defined energy of the person that has come into your presence. For example, you could simply walk down the street and have thoughts that come into your consciousness from someone that has the Gate of Doubts (63) defined in the Crown and the Gate of Mental Solutions (4) defined in the Mind. So before you know it, you are entertaining doubts and mental solutions that you would have never thought of before. And, Boom… there goes the thought outta’ your head that you want to think… All because of someone else’s energy! You can see how super-confusing this can be… when it is all a big misunderstanding of what’s actually happening!
The undefined/open Energy Center is a Gift!
I have an undefined Crown and a completely open MInd/Ajna. In my JOB, I would conduct large strategic planning meetings with Executives and staff. I always felt overwhelmed by the “thousand voices in the room.” I knew that it felt this way to me but didn’t know why. At the time, I didn’t know my Human Design and would simply take on the energy as mine. Needless to say, taking things personally was a well-ingrained habit for me! I would pretend to be certain (Mind/Ajna conditioning) and try to address each thought thrown at me (Crown conditioning). This had me running around in circles! What about you?!!!
Another aspect of the undefined/open Crown and Mind/Ajna is the “absent-minded professor.” I beat-up on myself for forgetting my keys or not having a good memory. And, I wondered why I couldn’t notice the details that were right in front of me. This is all the function of the undefined/open Crown and Mind/Ajna at play.
Overwhelm occurs from misunderstanding the power you have. Yet, the ability to notice the thought-energy of others is a great gift and is simply different from a defined intellect that can hold and think the same thoughts again and again. So you can see why holding a thought with the traditional manifestation formula is very difficult for the undefined/open mind indeed!
Raise your vibration with silence
The Crown and Mind/Ajna are particularly interesting when it comes to conditioning factors… as the overthinking and controlling intellect has been the modus operandi for humanity for eons. This is why we must get clear on how to manifest what we want! And, instead learn observation techniques to Silence the intellect and understand how to choose the vibration we offer.
The beauty of the undefined/open Crown and Mind/Ajna is that it has the potential for great wisdom. But only when you understand where your thoughts are coming from. To realize that you are experiencing the thought patterns of others, and then take time alone to allow the wisdom to emerge via what I love to call “Divine Downloads!” Whereas, the defined Crown and Mind/Ajna carries their consistent thinking with them whether in a group or alone… which can make their ability to Silence their minds to receive divine downloads a bit more challenging for them.
Ultimately, we all need to learn to be the neutral witness of our thoughts… whether they are coming from other people or from our subconscious programming. We each just play a different role in the de-conditioning process. By learning to be the observer… and remembering that we are Spirit in physical form regardless of what thoughts surface for healing and transformation. Awareness is the key!
