Human Design blends Kabbalah and quantum mechanics, I’Ching and biochemistry, chakra systems, and genetics. Like any system, it has limitations as well as value.  Its value is that it helps us to accurately analyze what part of our current experience is “conditioned” and what part is our true self, leaving us with a decision to discard beliefs or behaviors that no longer serve us.  It also helps us to accurately zoom in on our strengths, and potential issues in relationships with others.  One of its major limitations is that it is solely focused on the base two soul expressions (the neshama and ruach), and does not accurately take into account the upper three soul expressions, nor a connection or belief in a higher power (G-d) for guidance and direction.  Additionally, many of the original Human Design practitioners (those who studied with its founder, Ra) tend to really buy into a cynical belief that we are completely powerless over the dynamics of our biology and chart, again, removing the emphasis on spiritual and emotional development over our base instincts, as well as the transformative power of a personal relationship with our Creator.In today’s episode we discuss the Human Design System and it’s synthesis. I invite listeners to participate in Self-Care Circle, a monthly New Moon practice where we set intentions for the month ahead.
