I want to introduce you to something called “Human Design.”
As explained from their website: Human Design uses your birth time and place to calculate your personal Human Design chart. In this calculation, the positions of Sun, Moon and planets at the time of your birth play an important role. Astrology also uses the birth time and place to generate your chart, but it interprets the data differently – and Human Design is not astrology. Human Design is a logical, easily understood system that requires no beliefs. It offers a unique approach to spirituality – one that talks about things like definition, inner mechanics, correctness, differentiation, and inner authority. This language can seem a bit technical at first glance, but underneath is the opportunity for a profound life-changing transformation that brings about self-acceptance and self-love.
Human Design is a synthesis of several components of ancient traditions and modern scientific disciplines: I’Ching of Taoism, Tree of Life of Kabbala, Chakra System of Hinduism, Astrology, Astronomy, Physics, and Molecular Biology.
I was first introduced to this website from my acupuncturist 6 years ago. I went on the website and read up on it and then never signed up for a Foundation reading. I recently returned back to acupuncture, and he again recommended I do it. This time I did. Understanding your design is all about decision making. It is about understanding who you are an an unconscious level so that you can work from the best parts of yourself as you move through your life. I found it utterly fascinating and highly validating to who I am. I understand that I work from an emotional lens of what ‘feels right’ for me. When I work from this lens, then my decisions are sound and I can feel sure. When I try and make decisions without feeling ‘clear’ in this emotional aspect, it leads to resistance such as nervousness, fear, and exhaustion.
I also found out that I am a ‘Responder’ and that I attract opportunities and people to me all the time. When those people or opportunities present myself, then I can ‘respond’ in a way that is right for me so that I can clearly feel my next direction. If I ‘Initiate’ someone to me or an opportunity, it can be like giving my power, my energy away. This can be hard to explain, but I feel this all the time… when I kind of just ‘wait and let things/people come to me,’ then I am in my zone. When I try and ‘lead people or things to me,’ then I often feel tired and frustrated. The greatest thing that was given to me in my reading was this: “You came here to love humanity.” A lot of my chart was centered in many facets of self-love and love of others. It was absolutely beautiful!
My reading was 75 minutes long and I learned so much about my potential and what my gifts are as a unique individual. If anything I have said in this article has resonated with you, I encourage you to check out the Human Design website for yourself and to consider a personal reading. I am so excited to live in greater alignment with my Design and to try out this experiment in real day-to day life!
