Resonant Energies
I am observing, with the aid of Human Design, that there are three types of possible energetic relationships or interactions we can have with others. Human Design labels the energies harmony, resonance and dissonance. When you are in harmony with another person, your energies and styles are different, but your interaction still feels good and constructive. You tend to make a good partnership as each person brings something different to the table that somehow accentuates the other person. This is the type of relationship I have with my husband. People see us as being completely different, but as being a good fit together since we complement each other.
In a dissonant relationship, the energy just feels all wrong. These are the kind of people that make me grit my teeth when I am around them. These types of relationships come from what Human Design terms the “not self,” which essentially means you entered into the relationship incorrectly. When you follow your Human Design strategy and authority, these relationships are easily avoided.
Finally is my favorite type of relationship - the resonant energy. In a relationship that has resonance, you amplify each other when you are together. It’s as if you have met another you. When you are together, you energize each other. You get each other at a fundamental level because your energies are alike. Some people might describe you as “two peas in a pod” or a “dynamic duo.” It’s also a very comfortable feeling - as if the other person accepts who you are. Of course, it’s easy for the other to accept you because you have the same energetic frequency. Resonant energy can be summed up in a word - YUMMY!
I’m blessed to have both harmonic and resonant relationships in my life and both suit their purposes of supporting me or amplifying my joy. How about you?

Sounds like the advice grandmother used to give was “wise” for a reason. She always used to say that it was important to get a relationship off on the “right foot” otherwise it would be a relationship filled with heartache and frustration.
My curiosity lies within the not self relationship. If two people enter into a relationship on the not self level, is there any hope in the future to correct the energy flow or is this the destiny of that particular relationship?
Yes, there is absolutely hope. The harmony, resonance and dissonance will still apply. If the energies of the two are in harmony or resonance and both begin to live their design, it is certainly possible for the relationship to become correct as well. Of course, there is also the possibility that the relationship would dissolve as well.
My husband and I met before Human Design and our relationship is only getting better as a result of what we have learned from Human Design. Also, have you read the book “A Revolution of One” by Mary Ann Winiger? She talks about how the relationship with her husband played out after she began radically living her design. It’s a great read, I highly recommend it if you haven’t read it already. :o)
