No need to sugarcoat it, so much is happening in our world. Or, is it that we have more access than ever to view events, disasters, and tragedies online and in the media? Either way, it’s a lot for us to process. We went from being exposed to the happenings within our communities and families to a lot of the times, feeling like we are physically running out of compassion to give. And we need to make it a point to search for heartwarming stories or break away just to fill up our own cups. With all the choices, decisions, and experts out there to listen to, we’ve lost our way in terms of trusting our inner guidance.
This is where I feel that Human Design can be life-changing. Human Design is a system that essentially brings us back home to ourselves. It helps us to understand not only how we present ourselves in the world, but how we can best interact with others and the world around us. It’s all about the clean exchange of energy between ourselves and others, and if that energy exchange is correct for us. When I first learned about it, while intrigued, I wanted to understand the how, why, and most importantly – the proof. It wasn’t until I began making choices and living more according to my Strategy and Authority (get your chart here) that I noticed how life seemed to flow more effortlessly. We are all different – we digest information in different ways, we experience intuition and instincts in different ways, and we speak, listen, learn, and love in different ways. Yet we have been conditioned to believe that everyone should generally experience these very important aspects in life in the same way…and if you don’t, you’re different. Different is bad, says society – or is it that different shatters the mold, challenges outdated ideas, and finds better ways of doing redundant things?
With Human Design, our differences are celebrated. And on a macro level, we can understand how those differences fit together to form a harmonious whole.
As you move through this experiment of understanding who you are innately, there are oh so many surprises and reassurances along the way. You gain a deeper understanding of certain thoughts or reactions that may have been fixed in your life (always feeling that you need to chase your goals and new experiences) as well as where you may have been conditioned by outside sources (feeling as if you need to figure everything out on your own). As you continue this journey, each piece of information is just another level of awareness you’re gaining. Just imagine yourself, your family, friends, or coworkers with this new level of awareness: where maybe they’ve always felt like they need to speak on behalf of others; now understand that their true power lies in listening to the group and offering advice about what was left unsaid.
The above is just one example of how this awareness can change how we interact with others. Human Design sheds light on communication and expression, action, inspiration, stress, conceptualization, fear and survival, emotional and social awareness, willpower, love and identity, and our very own response to life itself.
Incoming cliché: Change begins within.
