The 12 Human Design profiles
Your Profile is the pair of numbers in your chart — like 3/5 or 6/2. It comes from the lines of your Personality Sun (conscious) and Design Sun (unconscious) and describes the role you play in life and how you learn and connect. Because the two Suns are always about 88° apart, six profiles are common and six are rare.

Why six profiles are rare
The Design Sun is always about 88° before the Personality Sun, which fixes which lines can pair up most of the time. Six profiles — 1/3, 2/4, 3/5, 4/6, 5/1, 6/2 — each show up for about 14.4% of people; the other six — 1/4, 2/5, 3/6, 4/1, 5/2, 6/3 — for only about 2.2% each.
