Ra Uru Hu Colors in Human Design 04
Ra Uru Hu Colors in Human Design 04
Colors are the underlying helplessness of all
lines. We have no access to it and truly, in the way in which it is used in English, it
"colors" everything. It colors who you are and what you are and how you work.
It takes away any, any, even tiny, minuscule, microscopic possibility that there's
anything that you can do about anything. You can't. So, I'll take you through the
themes of the colors of helplessness and give you a sense of how that actually
operates mechanically.
IT HAS TO DO WITH SRUCTURE
All things related to design, in their mechanics, are structural. We start at the very
surface, and at the very surface is the hexagram. We see that each and every
hexagram has a subdivision, a way in which the thematic of that hexagram are
structured. They're structured on six different possibilities that we call lines, but that
represents the surface. That is the surface of the personality and that is the surface
of the unconscious. It is the way the surface operates and the way we have some
kind of access to how that operates, either from the personality level in which we
have true access, or the design level where we get to see the impact of our design
over time by recognizing traits within ourselves.
All of our analytical work has to do with dealing with that surface. You already
recognize that the surface alone gives an extraordinary insight into the nature of a
human being, but it is the nature of the surface mechanics of that human being.
What is underlying all of that, beneath the level of the line, is another world. The first
level underneath the line is that each line has six possible divisions structurally and
they are called "colors". In using that term, a term that was given to me, it was clear
to me it is not about red, white and blue. It really is about coloring something as a
metaphor in the sense that everything is changed by it. Everything has to go through
that particular colored filter. It's like looking through rose tinted glasses all of your
life. In other words, it is giving you another way of looking at the world.
