Description

Lori wraps up the Midlife by Design Human Design Type series by diving into the unique and rare energy of Reflectors, who make up just 1% of the population. As cosmic mirrors, Reflectors absorb and reflect the energy of those around them. Lori explores what it means to be a Reflector, how they navigate midlife, and how this open energy type can use their sensitivity as a strength. She also discusses decision-making strategies, how Reflectors can thrive in the right environments, and how the wild woman archetype resonates powerfully with Reflectors in midlife.


Key Takeaways:

  1. Reflectors are Cosmic Mirrors: With all centers open or undefined, Reflectors absorb and reflect the energy of others, making them highly sensitive and adaptable beings.

  2. Challenges of Reflector Life: Reflectors may struggle with making decisions and discerning what is theirs versus what they’ve absorbed from others. They benefit from patience and time, as decisions are made best over a lunar cycle.

  3. Finding Strength in Sensitivity: By using tools like environmental awareness, and energy-cleansing practices, Reflectors can support their own energy while thriving in midlife.

  4. Decision-Making Through the Lunar Cycle: Reflectors need time to let decisions unfold and are encouraged to track patterns in their feelings over time to gain clarity.

  5. Embracing the Wild Woman Archetype: Reflectors in midlife can embrace the wild woman archetype, stepping into their power and creating a life that surprises and delights them.
