Human Design tells us that you are a once-in-a-lifetime, never-to-be-repeated person. When you live aligned with your design, life can become more ease-filled, purposeful, and satisfying.
Human Design is a system that helps you understand the mechanics of your being – how you are energetically wired. It’s a merging of several ancient traditions: the Chinese I Ching, the Hindu chakra system, astrology, and the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. These systems converge into a single, powerful tool that generates a unique chart – called a bodygraph – based on three simple details: your birth date, birth time, and birth location.
The foundational elements of Human Design are:
- Type: You are one of five energy types: Generator, Manifesting Generator, Manifestor, Projector, or Reflector. Your type reveals how you’re designed to interact with the world and how your energy flows most effectively.
- Authority: This is your inner compass for major life decisions. One surprising truth in Human Design is that no one is meant to make big decisions with their mind. Some people are designed to trust their gut, others need time to feel their way through choices, and some get subtle, intuitive nudges that guide them.
- Profile: Your profile is made up of two numbers drawn from the positions of the Sun and Earth in your chart. There are twelve profiles, each describing the unique role you’re here to play.
- Centers: Think of these as energy hubs. While the traditional chakra system has seven centers, Human Design uses nine. The Head, Ajna, Throat, Sacral, and Root centers closely mirror the chakras. The Heart splits into the Identity (or G) center and the Will center, and the Solar Plexus divides into the Emotional Solar Plexus and the Splenic center.
- Gates: Drawing from the I Ching, there are sixty-four gates distributed throughout the nine centers. Each gate corresponds to a specific area of life and personality, influenced by planetary energy.
- Channels: There are thirty-six channels in total formed when two gates connect across centers. These channels determine which centers are defined – or consistently activated – in your chart. They show your natural gifts, strengths, and how your energy moves through your system.
- Astrological influence: Each chart reflects the imprint of planetary energies at the moment of your birth. Up to twenty-six gates are activated through the Sun, Earth, Moon, and more, shaping how your unique traits express themselves in the world.
Think of it this way: You are a living puzzle, and Human Design is the blueprint that shows how your pieces fit together – perfectly and intentionally. These foundation elements create the edge pieces of your puzzle that hold the depth of you inside.
How Do I Learn My Human Design?
Human Design helps you understand who you truly are – not who you think you should be based on what you’ve been taught to believe. It helps uncover where your life conditioning lies and those limiting beliefs that prevent you from being your best self. This can bring a deep sense of relief and permission to be yourself, without apology. It can help you define your purpose and help you understand your superpower (we all have them).
