The Chart Details page
The deep mechanics view — where to find it, and what is not yet verified.
This article describes something in the app that is missing, partly built, or advertised elsewhere and not actually available. It says what happens today and how to get the outcome by hand. Everything of this kind is listed on known gaps.
Chart Details is the advanced mechanics view: the layer below gates and lines.
Where it is
It is not in the top navigation. Open it from the Chart page — it is a tool that belongs to a chart rather than a destination of its own. That surprises people who go looking for it in the menu.
It requires Plus.
What it shows
- The full activation table for both the personality and design sides, planet by planet.
- Variables — the four arrows, built from the colour and tone of specific activations, describing digestion, environment, perspective and motivation.
- Colour, tone and base for each activation: the layers beneath the line.
- Left and right orientation for each of the four variable positions.
What is not yet verified
We check our calculations against published reference charts before we call them settled. The left/right sides and the colour and tone numbers on this page have not yet completed that check. The gate and line values they are built on have.
That means: treat the arrows and the colour/tone figures on this page as provisional. If you are using them in a professional reading, verify against a second source first. This is on the known gaps list and will be updated when the comparison is finished.
We would rather ship the page with this note than either hold it back or let you assume a level of confidence it has not earned.
What is deliberately absent
Chiron is not included. It is not part of the standard Human Design bodygraph, and adding it as an aside would imply a role in the mechanics that it does not have.
