Colour sits directly beneath the line of a gate, and Variable reads it once for each of the four arrows. The number is the same in every position; the meaning is not. Colour 2 in the Design Sun is the Determination of Taste, a body that is genuinely selective about what goes into it. Colour 2 in the Design Nodes is the Environment of Markets. Colour 2 in the Personality Sun is the Motivation of Hope, and Colour 2 in the Personality Nodes is the Perspective of Possibility.

Provenance: researched and cross-checked 22 August 2026 against Jovian Archive and humdes.com Sources: https://jovianarchive.com/pages/the-basics-of-substructure-in-human-design; https://www.gethumandesign.com/docs/variable/motivation/; https://www.gethumandesign.com/docs/variable/perspective/; https://www.thedesignofyou.com/blog/environments-and-human-design; https://freehumandesignchart.com/your-human-design-determination/ Noted at time of writing: Two sources place Open Taste on the left arrow and Closed Taste on the right, which is the opposite of the assumption often made from the general left equals selective rule. Because the pattern does not hold consistently across the other five Determination colours, the entry deliberately does not assign left or right. Not yet reviewed by a certified practitioner.
