Human Design Definition
You’ve stumbled upon Human Design or heard about it through a friend or colleague and wondered what the heck is this? A new religion? Nope. Human Design is a holistic self-discovery system blending astrology, the I Ching, the Kabbalah, the Chakra system, and quantum physics, creating a unique chart known as the Bodygraph.
Your Human Design Chart: The Bodygraph
Your BodyGraph, a visual representation of your genetic makeup, indicates your defined (colored-in) and open (undefined) energy centers. This chart is your roadmap to interacting with the world, making decisions, and experiencing life.
This ‘blueprint’ unravels the mystery of your energetic and psychological make-up, illuminating how you’re wired to interact with the world, make decisions, and connect with others.
The first step in researching Human Design is to get your FREE Bodygraph to see what your Type, Authority, and Profiles are. It will be much easier for you to understand Human Design when you have the context of your own design. You can get a free Bodygraph here on Mind Body Design Lab. If you’re looking for something a little more in-depth, check out our Soul Blueprint. It’s a 18-25 page explanation of your personal Bodygraph.
The Origins of Human Design
The journey of Human Design began in 1987 with Ra Uru Hu (Alan Robert Krakower). A mystical experience inspired him to develop this system, combining ancient wisdom with modern insights, providing a framework to understand ourselves and our interactions in today’s world.
A Personalized Approach: Using Human Design in Daily Life
Human Design is a personalized approach to self-understanding and growth. This system uniquely defines who you are at your core, offering a path to navigate life with decisions that resonate with your true self. Human Design offers you a way to look within and recognize your true self so that you can live a life that is aligned with who you really are instead of who the world tells you to be.
Understanding your Human Design can have an immense positive affect on your life and give you a deeper appreciation for yourself and others. Human Design offers insights into all your relationships. Understanding your design and that of others fosters harmonious and fulfilling connections. Human Design principles can be used in your career, health, relationships, parenting, and education.
Core Elements of Human Design
At its heart, Human Design celebrates our uniqueness. It highlights how we individually interact with the world and make decisions. By understanding your Human Design, you uncover your deepest nature. Human Design can also enrich your relationships with those around you, help you resolve or avoid conflict, and give a great appreciation for individual uniqueness.
The Five Energy Types of Human Design
In Human Design, you fall into one of five energy types — Manifestors, Generators, Projectors, Reflectors, or Manifesting Generators. Each type comes with its own set of strategies and authority for decision-making, helping you understand your innate strengths, challenges, and paths to personal fulfillment.
Exploring Energy Centers
The BodyGraph showcases nine energy centers, each reflecting different aspects of your being. They can be defined, indicating consistent energy, or undefined, highlighting areas open to external influence and growth.
Chart Configurations: Understanding Your Design
Your Human Design chart may show configurations like single, split, triple split, or quadruple definitions, indicating how your energy centers are connected. This helps understand how you process information and energy.
Authority Types: Your Decision-Making Guide
Your chart indicates your inner authority, guiding your decision-making process. Types like Sacral, Emotional, or Splenic help you make choices that align with your true self.
Overcoming Not-Self Themes
Human Design also reveals not-self themes, indicating when you stray from your true nature. These often stem from conditioning. Recognizing and overcoming this helps you live authentically.
Profiles and Incarnation Crosses: Your Unique Path
Your Human Design profile, a combination of two numbers, reflects your personality traits and interaction style. The Incarnation Cross represents your life’s purpose, guiding you toward your ultimate role.
The Role of Gates and Channels
Gates and Channels in your chart represent specific energies and traits. Defined gates or channels indicate consistent traits, while undefined ones suggest influence by others and potential growth.
[mailerlite_form form_id=4]Embracing Your Design for Wellness
Living in alignment with your Human Design promotes overall wellness, offering peace, fulfillment, and a stress-free lifestyle. Embrace your design to nurture your body, mind, and spirit.
Criticisms and Limitations
While intriguing, Human Design is not without criticisms. Some find it overly complex or mystical. It’s a tool for exploration and personal growth, not a rigid doctrine. Personally, I love Human Design! It has given me a lot of personal understanding and “permission” to be myself. Not that I needed “permission” but understanding your deepest self is liberating and powerful. I hope you have the same experience as you explore your Human Design.
Resources for Further Exploration
