Human Design Definition Types: Understanding How Your Energy Flows

Your definition type reveals how you process information, make decisions, and move through the world.
The Four Definition Types
Single Definition (41%)
All centers connected. Self-contained. Fast processing. Your wholeness is your gift.
Split Definition (46%)
Two separate groups needing a bridge. Not codependency — circuitry.
Triple Split (11%)
Three groups. Designed for community. No single person bridges all parts.
Quadruple Split (2%)
Four islands. Slowest, most thorough processing. Rock-solid decisions.
No Definition
Open mirror reflecting and amplifying all energy around you.
Definition and Relationships
Single + Split: natural bridging. Split + Split: depends on gap matching.
Working With Your Definition
Honor your pace. You were designed this way on purpose.
