Intro to Human Design

Human Design is a combination of both ancient systems and modern science. It combines the chakra systems, genetics, astrology, astronomy, the I Ching, biochemistry, Kabbalah, and Quantum Mechanics. Human Design is not a religion. It is similar to a personality system (think Myers-Briggs) to assist one with a deeper understanding of how they best maneuver through the world. On the most concrete level, Human Design shows you where and how to access your body’s consciousness as a decision-making tool, and ultimately, how to live as your true self.

Buckle up because its creation story is a vision quest in itself and an incredible tale! Basically, Alan Krakower, known as Ra Uru Hu, a former advertising executive and magazine publisher, had an eight-day visitation in the ’80s with a Voice, a Guide, a Spirit, who stated, word-by-word, an intricate system. Alan transcribed everything he experienced with this entity and a four-hundred-page textbook was birthed that reveals our deepest inner workings. It all starts with our place and time of birth. Before you run for the hills, open your mind and generate your chart, or shall we say, your BodyGraph. You will be surprised and taken back about how spot on it is! We promise.

There are four “types” in the Human Design reference – Manifestors, Generators (Manifesting Generators), Projectors, and Reflectors. This is the place where people get confused, a lot of spiritual communities say there are five types. Manifesting Generators are considered Generators because of the Aura Type. More on this later in another post. The four types are defined by three categories: the strategy, or how you make decisions, the functions of the aura and how it affects others, and your signature, which indicates where your life is moving. Our Human Design is meant to be lived, and the power in understanding our design comes from taking action based on what we unearth. We cannot wait to dive deeper into HD with you!
