What is Human Design?
Human Design is a powerful self-discovery tool that combines modern science with ancient wisdom. It is a synthesis of Quantum Physics, Astrology, the Chinese I Ching, the Hindu Chakra System, and The Tree of Life - all working together to reveal the energetic blueprint you were born with. It teaches us to become body conscious instead of mind conscious.
Your Human Design chart is calculated based on the planetary alignments at the exact time and place of your birth. It shows how your energy naturally flows, how you are wired to make decisions, how you interact with others, and what helps you live in a way that feels authentic, joyful, and aligned.
At its heart, Human Design teaches us that we each have a unique way of experiencing life, and that trying to be someone we are not leads to frustration, anger, burnout, bitterness, and confusion. Instead, by understanding and embracing your true design, you can trust your natural gifts, navigate challenges more easily, and experience more fulfillment, success, health, and vitality. We wish all this knowledge to our children, for the next generation leaders.
This beautifully echoes the Three Principles (3P) of Mind, Consciousness, and Thought understanding, which explain how our psychological experiences are created moment to moment through the power of thought. Not only according to Human Design, but according to the 3P as well, the body reacts to the mind's stories about duality, pressure, and fear. But when we learn to notice and understand how the mind works and how it tricks us, we reclaim our freedom to choose and allow our true nature to guide us.
Living your Design is not about becoming someone new - it’s about remembering who you already are and living from that place of truth.
In short: Human Design helps you move from conditioning to authenticity, from struggle to ease, and from confusion to clarity - so you can live a life that truly feels like home to you.
Understanding Your Human Design Bodygraph
Human Design shows the unique energetic blueprint you were born with, based on the exact date, time, and place of your birth. Your chart might look complex at first, but each part has a special meaning that helps you understand how you are naturally designed to move through life. It is not what you are, it is HOW YOU ARE. The following is a quick guide to the basic elements.
Energy Types: People can categorized into 5 energy types: Manifestors get things started; Generators provide the energy to bring it into form or complete work; Manifesting Generators (still generator) improves processes, do things fast; Projectors guide the process and energy of the other types; and Reflectors tell us how well the others and the processes are going, or not.
Aura: Your invisible energetic field. Every Type (like Manifesting Generator, Generator, Projector, Manifestor, or Reflector) has a different kind of Aura, or energy field. Your Aura naturally interacts with the world around you - drawing people in, repelling them, or sampling experiences. Understanding your Aura helps you move through life with less resistance and more flow.
Energy Centers: The shapes (like triangles, squares, and diamonds) you see on your chart.
They represent parts of your energy system - for example, how you process emotions, make decisions, communicate, or think.
o Colored (Defined) Center mean you have consistent, reliable energy in that area.
o White (Undefined) Center mean you experience that energy differently depending on your environment and the people around you. These are the places of learning and wisdom or be conditioned.
Channels: The lines that connect the Centers.
Channels show natural talents, strengths, or life themes that flow through you. When a Channel is complete (colored all the way between two Centers), it gives you a strong and consistent energy in that area.
Gates: The little numbers around the Centers. Gates are like “energy points” - each one represents a specific gift, challenge, or life lesson. When you have a Gate defined (colored), it’s an energy you carry and express in your life.
