Human design makes sense when it comes to energy management. As a projector everything made a ton of sense, especially the part about burn out, and waiting for the invitation. It works well.
But...
My north node is Aries 5th house. Its ruler Mars exalted in 2nd house Capricorn.
To me it sounds like practicing Aries is almost contradictory for a projector. Taking initiation, or ambition, is opposite of what we are told to do to manage energy as a projector.
Maybe I am not seeing something, but how can I reconcile both, or utilize both harmoniously when it comes to creative self expression?

@codydeboer I've seen the projectors referred to as "the teachers" a lot of times within Human Design. Maybe a way that you can harness your Aries north node is to move towards guiding others on how to take initiative with following their ambitions—or something along those lines. Do you mind sharing what gate your north node is in?
@kam Ahh I see, that makes sense, I have done some of that for sure. I think gate 42 and gate 3. https://imgur.com/MKA2Y9a
@codydeboer this is from the "The Complete Rave I'Ching Index" By Ra Uru Hu
42.6- Increase | The expansion of the resources which maximizes the development of full potential
In exaltation: A natural and instinctive nurturing of others. The power to share the process of growth with others.
In detriment: A restrictive and malefic materialism that is self-alienating and encourages aggression. The refusal to share the benefits of growth with others.
So, it looks like that's a gift that you can cultivate through Rahu, perhaps through mentoring or working with other people and helping them complete their projects, because gate 53 is hanging, which shows you'll attract people who are good at starting new things, but not good at following through with them. But you have the energy to help them with that, through your defined spleen channel 32-54. This is the channel of continuity. So this can have to do with you teaching others how to instinctively survive on the material plane through sustained effort.
Also to note, Projector seems more so like a Hexagram 2 (receptive or feminine). And Aries is kinda like a Hexagram 1 (Creative or masculine/strong action). They seem almost contradictory.
- Hi there, I don't feel that there is contradiction. rahu in any sign calls for balancing of the quality of that sign. the fact the you are a projector and need to wait for a response can not work in a vacum, at some piont there is a need to practice a corect and balanced exspression of your creative inspiration. in your case this quality needs some practice and that is represented by the north node in Aries.
