“One thing the Human Design System does rather well is to offer a few places to stand to look at yourself in a somewhat objective fashion. This is not an easy thing to do. For example,
Swimming beneath the surface of the ocean, my view of what constitutes the ocean is somewhat limited. Surfing the waves, my view is much different. Standing on the shore my view of the ocean is again different, as it is if I stand on a hill high above. If I row around in a glass-bottomed boat, I see yet other aspects. And, of course, a microscope offers a significantly different view.
To some extent, my own personal appreciation of Human Design is due to this built-in range of potential views of the ocean that constitutes myself and others. It offers multiple layers of complexity and dynamics for pursuing self-observation or observation of others. And maybe even compassionate understanding of others.”

This question is presented by their aura to everyone who comes into it. “What is your story?” they, the Sphinx, ask of their world. They are the timeless riddles that people ponder.
Understanding the Riddle of the Sphinx
Without them doing anything, people are drawn to look at them, to wonder about them, and to therefore wonder about themselves. To ask themselves, where am I going? When the Sphinx feels secure in their knowledge, they can answer those people.
The Sphinx offers guidance to others based on logic – secure patterns for the future – and their own experience. This doesn’t mean the Sphinx has to take charge of them; they are naturally designed to point the way and offer encouragement.
Simply by being, the Sphinx offers others the possibility of transformation from the old to the new. To those who merit it, the Sphinx is willing to offer guidance, to explain their direction and why they aim for it. As long as they stay true to their type and authority, then the Sphinx’s direction will always be right for them and their world.
