Your Starting point to understanding the Human Design Chart


When you first looked at your Human Design chart did you have a moment of 😅 what is going on here?

I know, there is A LOT going on in the chart, this is because Human Design is a synthesis of both ancient modalities (Astrology, Hindu Chakra system, Chinese I-Ching, and Kabbalah Tree of Life) and modern sciences (quantum physics, astrophysics, and genetics).

So keep reading and I'll give you a quick break down of where each of the aspects of the Human Design chart mean and where they come from.

Let's start with a visual, when you run your chart on my website it will look something like this...

Astrology

Let's start with the purple and pink columns on each side of the Chart.  These relate to astrology and are the placements of the planets in the gates of your body graph. The placement of the planets at the time of your birth matters because it is the neutrino field passing through the planets at the time that imprints your energy dynamics on your (this is where astrophysics comes in!).  To understand how that is mapped out I just uploaded a video to YouTube explaining that so you can check it out here: https://youtu.be/3eG0nRR9qXU

Gates

The gates, which are all of those numbers running around both in the columns and energy centers come from the Chinese I-Ching.  There are 64 of them total which also corresponds to the 64 codons we have in our DNA structure (hello genetics). Each energy Center houses different gates and they are the different ways that energy center's energy can be expressed.

Energy Centers

The 9 energy centers in the Human Design Chart derive from the 7 energy centers in the Hindu Charka system. In 1781 we had an evolutionary shift and our energy centers evolved from 7 to 9 which ultimately changed how we were designed to operate.  Our 7 centered counterparts were designed to listen solely to utter authority, where as we as 9 centered beings are designed to listen solely to our own inner authority to make decisions.

Channels

All of those lines running between the energy centers and connecting the gates to one another.  These channels from from the Kabbalah Tree of Life and hold their own energy which is a quantum of the gates on either side of the channel that makes up that channel. This is one of the areas of the chart where quantum physics comes in.  When each gates is active on either side of the channel it creates a quantum energy where the energy shifts and that energy is greater than the sum of its parts.

Okay if you've read this far that means you're a total champ and my people for geeking out over Human Design so much.

If this lead you to even more questions don't worry, that happens!

Stay tuned because next week I'm FINALLY launching Vitality by Design my monthly membership where we have a community space to answer ALL of your questions!

Have a great rest of your week, bye for now!

With love,
Mallory

HI THERE FRIEND, I'M MALLORY!

 
Thanks so much for stoping by my little space here on the web and listening to my story!  I can't wait to teach you everything I've learned over the years.

My biggest lesson has definitely been being a mom and it's still something I learn to navigate every day. As it turns out these little humans have a mind of their own, know what they want, and aren't afraid to whine at you until they get it, do ya feel me?  In Ashtanga Yoga we call parenting 7th series because it is the hardest practice of them all.  Now, I don't have a whole lot of parenting answers for you (still figuring all that out myself), but I can help with keeping your kids healthy! We want healthy kids because healthy kids are just happier kids and mama I know you want your kid to be happy just like I do.

When we first brought our son Eero home, I just felt lost.  He was colicky, gassy, had a serve case of torticollis, and was just an all around unhappy baby. Being a first time mom and confronted with all of this was HARD and compounded by my own emotional issues lead to my PPD.  The first 6 months of Eero's life was full of a lot of tears from both of us. 

Then his first REAL cold hit and fever hit.  I didn't feel prepared and didn't know what to do to help him.  Everyone just kept telling me, oh just use Infant Tylenol and Ibuprofen, this just didn't sit right with me.  I knew all I was doing was masking the symptoms and not actually helping his body to heal.  My baby was in pain and I wanted to do everything I could to help his body be strong and fight. This lead me down a path of diving into natural remedies, learning how the body works, and ultimately empowered me as a mother to care for my babies. 

Now I know what to do keep my babies healthy and I also have an abundance of tools to turn to when they are under the weather.  I know longer have that panicked feeling when Eero or Emma spike a fever, I know exactly what to and it is my mission to help every mama feel confident in taking care of their families. There is truly so much we can do when we understand how the body works, even in simple terms and I can't wait to share it all with you!

I'm here for you, through the up and downs, tears and smiles, I will be here to help uplift and encourage you. Know you are not alone, in fact there is a whole community of mamas waiting for you to join us and go against the status quo.  Our bodies are meant for health and our lives are meant for abundance.
