(The Explorer / Visionary Leader in Quantum Human Design)
Your Human Design Profile consists of two numbers representing two kinds of energies that work together to create your experiential learning style—the gate lines in the conscious and unconscious sun. The first number is an aspect of your life role that you are conscious of and probably relate to easily. The second number is an aspect of your life role that is unconscious but that is also a vital part of your personality.
The 3/5 Profile in Human Design is the Martyr Heretic. Don’t let the cultural connotations of the word Martyr scare you. Your 5th line balances the bad luck associated with the Martyr and creates a cheerful character that always finds the bright side. Not to mention 3/5s have an amazing sense of humor.

The 3rd Profile Line – Martyr (The Explorer)
If you are a third-line profile (1/3, 3/5, 3/6, 6/3), you learn by experimenting. You are here to share what works and what doesn’t based on your experimentation. You have never made a mistake in your life. Everything that you have tried that didn’t work out was a crucial step in your mastering what does work. If you ever want to know the best way to do something, ask a third-line profile. They’ve tried everything.
If you’re a third line, your life path is experiential. You have to do something to work out all the bugs. But sometimes, a third-line profile will shut down out of fear of making a mistake or getting it “wrong,” especially if you’ve been judged or criticized for not getting it right.
It’s important to understand that all of your so-called mistakes are part of your learning curve. It doesn’t matter how much you know or how much you’ve prepared, things will go “wrong.” These “mistakes” aren’t a reflection of your character. They are a vital part of your experimental process that helps you discover in a practical way what is truly useful and effective.
Around the age of forty, some of your experimentation will settle down. The experiences of your youthful exploration will give you the depth to be truly wise about life. You will always want to try everything, but by forty, you’ll have a deeper awareness of what needs to be experienced and what doesn’t.
In relationships, you need a lot of time to get clear about what you want and need. The third line energy can often make you fall in love at first sight and think that you’ve found the One. Unfortunately, your third-line energy can make you fall out of love as quickly as you fall in love. As a third-line profile, you need a lot of space, freedom, and time in a relationship to know whether it is correct for you or not. Take it slow. It helps you avoid disappointment and keeps you from hurting others.
In its highest expression, you are wise about life based on your own experiments and experiences.
In its lowest expression, you are afraid to try new things because you know there will be a certain amount of trial and error associated with them.
False Self In the 3/5 Martyr Heretic (Explorer Visionary Leader) Profile
In Human Design, there is a concept known as the False Self. Your False Self is manifested when you attempt to suppress yourself to fit into social conditioning. This False Self sacrifices their own desires and ideas in order to fit into the culture around them.
Your False Self is expressed through the profile line that is expressed consciously, the first number in your profile. In this case, the third line profile is the Martyr. Third-line profiles are designed to make mistakes and are subject to the projections of others. You are not bothered by your experiences with trial and error, but your False Self is reluctant to make mistakes because of the projections from others. To protect yourself from these projections, you have to follow your Human Design strategy and authority to avoid feeling pessimistic- or worse, giving up.
You must avoid the Martyr trappings of “Why me?” or “Why now?” You have to discover the principles that you can live by yourself and then transform those principles into a universalizing force. You are here to destroy what does not work and create something that does.
The 5th Profile Line – Heretic (The Visionary Leader)
If you have a heretic profile (2/5, 5/1, 5/2), your life has a more destined quality than you realize. As a heretic, you have a life path that is about helping others. But it’s not just by your actions that you help others. Energetically you serve as a mirror for others to help them heal and align their energy. This isn’t necessarily anything you do consciously. This is simply an artifact of your energy.
This energetic mirroring makes it difficult for people to see you for who you really are. How you appear to others is a projection of their consciousness and what they need to work on to heal. Because of this, you might sometimes find yourself in the wrong place, with the wrong people, being the wrong “mirror.” This is where the heretic name comes from. Sometimes people project false expectations onto you, and if you don’t fulfil them, your reputation can suffer.
Of course, the converse is true: If you follow your Human Design strategy, you will find yourself in the right place, with the right people, being of service in a way that is empowering and transformative. It is so important for the heretic to follow their strategy. It can save them a lot of pain and suffering.
Because of the projections of others, as a fifth-line profile, you can be a master of hiding. No one really knows who you are. (They will think they do, but they don’t.) It’s not that you are secretive, necessarily. But you will play your cards very close to your chest.
The heretic profile, in its highest expression, has the capacity to influence great numbers of people and to demonstrate the highest possible energies in their chart. That means that you have seduction as a life theme. You can seduce a room with your personality, your ideas, and even your sexuality if you choose. The fifth line makes you a great salesperson in many ways.
In relationships, you like to be seductive and seduced. People are drawn to you. You can have a lot of power and control in your relationships, and you decide when to turn your charm off or on. Some heretics like the energy of seduction so much that they forget about the other parts of being in a relationship. This can give you a certain Casanova quality if you’re not careful. And, of course, because people are projecting ideas and perceptions onto you, they may perceive you as a Casanova, even when you’re being faithful.
The projection field of others can sometimes make relationships tricky for you. Because of your secretive nature, it can take time for you to feel safe and comfortable in a relationship. Heretics don’t always like to be vulnerable or seen. When all is well, you will playfully seduce your partner again and again, slowly revealing your true self to that special someone, keeping the energy and delicious spark of your relationship alive and evolving. The heretic always seeks the highest expression of love.
In its highest expression, you can effectively influence people and be an effective leader.
In its lowest expression, you can use your charm for personal gain and sometimes hurt others.
Aura Type In Profile 3/5
To use Human Design effectively, you will always come back to your type. The profiles manifest in different ways for each Human Design type. 3/5 Manifestors experience the world very differently than a 3/5 Projectors, and we must always return to our type’s strategy. Profiles are meant to be used, alongside your type, to help navigate the world around you.
3/5 Manifestor (Initiator) Profile In Human Design
Manifestors are the only Human Design type that is designed to initiate. They are independent and designed to take immediate action when they have an idea. The Manifestor’s fierce independence is a blessing in the 3/5 profile as they are less affected by the opinions, or disapproval, of others. Resistance or interference from others will cause the Manifestor anger if they do not follow their strategy of informing those around them.
3/5 Generator (Alchemist) Profile In Human Design
Generators are designed to take action, but only after they listen to their inner Sacral response. The Sacral provides Generators with a Yes or No response. As the 3/5 is designed to discover their physical world, Generators need that Sacral feedback before engaging in discovery.
3/5 Manifesting Generator (Time Bender) Profile In Human Design
Manifesting Generators are a blend of both Manifestors and Generators. A 3/5 Manifesting Generator will struggle, as their third line will attract the Manifestor impulse to initiate. Manifesting Generators are designed to listen to their Sacral authority and must wait for the Yes or No before acting.
3/5 Projector (Orchestrator) Profile In Human Design
The Projector’s strategy is to wait for an invitation, but the 3/5 Projector will seek out others which goes directly against waiting for their invitation. Projectors tend to allow the influence of others to affect them and often change themselves to meet these external expectations. As the 3/5 can fall victim to the projections of others, the 3/5 Projector must be extremely cautious and allow themselves plenty of alone time to focus on their own needs.
3/5 Reflector (Calibrator) Profile In Human Design
Reflectors spend their lives trying on different identities. Ultimately, Reflectors will come to accept that these other identities do not work for them. Because the 3/5 profile is destined for trying and trying again, 3/5 Reflectors can gain intense knowledge from their identity experiments.
Famous People With 3/5 Human Design Profiles
Famous people with a 3/5 profile: Anais Nin, Carole King, Diana Ross, Kate Winslet, Shirley Maclaine, Ted Turner, Willie Nelson, and William Shatner.
Best Careers For People With 3/5 Human Design Profiles
The best careers for 3/5s allow for multiple opportunities to create something new, seek out better ways to accomplish a task and to pass on their knowledge.
Ideal Compatibility For People With 3/5 Human Design Profiles
3/5 profiles are ideally matched with a 6/2. They may also find compatibility with the 3/6, 5/1,5/2, and 6/3. Less compatibility may be found with the 1/3, 1/4, 2/4, 2/5, 4/6, and 4/1. Those with a 3/5 profile are here to experience what the world has to offer, and that extends to what different people have to offer. This does not mean that 3/5s are incapable of monogamous relationships, only that they must experience many different people before they can choose one.
Living Your Best Life When You Have A 3/5 Human Design Profile
Those with a 3/5 profile have always felt like the black sheep. They get lost in victimhood, pessimism, and endless worry. Society tries to condition them to find what works, and the 3/5 doesn’t get to experience the joy of finding what does NOT work first.
For you to live your best life as a 3/5 you must first honor your type’s strategy. Following your strategy will always be what keeps you grounded in your true self. After you honor your strategy, the 3/5 needs to go out in the world and get dirty. Try and fail with as many experiences as you can.
The hardest thing for many 3/5 profiles is to reconcile their need to engage with experiences and the projections of others. You are allowed, even encouraged, to build something amazing and burn it down when you are ready to be done. Don’t allow your False Self to take over and try to accommodate others’ projections.
Note: The names in brackets above are the Quantum Human Design (QHD) names for these Types. QHD helps us to reframe the ‘Not Self’ or conditioned self in Human Design to explore the potential of the deconditioned self and to live more in alignment with our inner truth.
