What is Human Design?
I like to call human design your string of Success or Money Codes.
These codes formulate a blueprint that is meant to guide you on creating a life that aligns with your soul’s purpose.
I have seen it described as your own unique spell book that outlines the kind of magic that you are here to wield in the world. Another way to look at Human Design, is to view it as a map that guides you back home to yourself when you fall off track. All in all, it’s a self awareness tool that you can use to support you on your Inner Child and Money Trauma Healing journey.
Now before I go any further let me explain a few things that Human Design is NOT, so you don’t get confused.
Your Human Design is NOT:
A religion or a cult. It is a system that beautifully merges Science and Spirituality.
Predictive. There is no fortune telling associated with the system. It is descriptive and is only meant to be a guide that you can experiment with. Just as how you can get from point A to B without following a specific map, you can find success without Human Design. The difference though lies in how much ease you experience with getting to your destination with vs without the map.
Meant to dictate the career or relationship that you should or shouldn’t be in. It can however help you to experience more ease in your relationships, business and overall life as it’ll help you be more understanding and compassionate with others while also leading with your strengths.
Meant to disempower or confine you to any limits. Instead, the more you experiment with your Human Design, you will move with greater authority over your life and the more expanded you will feel as a result.
With that out of the way, the first thing you will need to do is generate your chart which is called your Bodygraph.
You can generate your chart using The Magic of Your Design Chart Generator. You will need your birth date, birth time and city of birth and will look like teh diagram below.
When you generate this chart you will be able to download a copy of my ebook UnMask Your Magic™️ which will give you an introduction to the 20 Key Human Design terminologies in an easy to understand way, as well as a Free Mini Analysis of your Human Design.

I am aware that some people do not have access to this information. So what do you do if you don’t know your birth time?
If you do not know your birth time, you can:
Check your birth certificate. Most countries will have the time of birth on it. If you do not have a copy then you can order a copy from the relevant authorities in your home country.
If your country is one that doesn’t keep an easily accessible record of your birth time, then you may get a “birth time rectification” by an astrologer. You can shop around on Google for someone who could do it for you.
Another option is to ask a family member for an estimated time (early morning, sometime after noon etc) and run the chart multiple times within that estimation to note if there are any estimations. They may have photos of your birth with time stamps so you can check those as well.
Unfortunately, if you do not have access to any of these options, your analysis will not be 100% accurate; however, several pieces of pieces of info from yoru chasrt will remain consistent and those will still valuable support when the analysis is done, even if your Type changes over the course of the day.
Moving on, so when you look at the chart, you will see lots of shapes, colours, numbers, lines and arrows.
These are all “codes” and they come together to create the “magic of you”. These codes can be used to help you unlock more success in your business and personal life.
To give you a quick starter guide, here are some of the most common terms that you will encounter and will notice on your chart:
Bodygraph: this is your Human Design chart.
Design Date: represents the date that was 88 days before your birth. If you generated your chart from here, you will notice there is a blue side and a pink side. The pink side of the chart represents the codes you got before birth while those on the blue side, represents the codes you were imprinted with at birth. Together, they make up your “Human Design”.
Type: gives a summarization of how your overall energy works and determines your strategy, signature and not-self-signature. There are 4 main types. They are
Generators, Projectors, Manifestors and Reflectors. You will often come across information that lists Manifesting Generators as a different type but technically they are Generators.
Strategy: guides how you naturally pull in aligned opportunities.
Not-Self Theme: is how your body tells you when you are operating out of alignment with your design.
Signature: is the emotional experience you will have when you are living according to your design.
Authority: supports your Type and Strategy and is the system that guides how you make your best decisions. It really is the unique way your intuition works. There are 7 types of Authorities.
Profile: can be considered your personality traits and represent the role you play in your own story (how you see yourself) and how you appear in other people’s story (what people see when they notice your personality).
Incarnation cross: your life theme and purpose.
Gifts: are what I like to call the “keys to your magic”. They are the different energetic information that you transmit through your aura.
Channels: your strongest and most consistent gifts.
Center: the energetic themes that come together to create your Human Design Type. The Sacral Center is plays the determinig role of differentiating Generators from the other Human Design Types, while the
Defined Center: is the “fixed” and consistent way in which you process and use the energy flowing from that center.
Undefined Center: is where you take in, mirror and amplify the energy that you take in from people’s energy in that center within your chart. It is not going to be consistent for you.
Deconditioning: is a term you will see mentioned a lot in Human Design and really is your healing process. It is how you strip away the masks (identities) that you took on to fit in and feel safe so that you can start living more in alignment with your Human Design.
By now, you should already have already generated your Bodygraph (Human Design Chart) and have your copy of the UnMask Your Magic Ebook, beautiful you haven’t yet, then you also be wondering, “How can I actually use Human Design in my life?”
Well, specifically when working with me, I use Human Design to help you to:
Remember Your Magic. If you are on a healing and self recovery journey, your Human design can help you pinpoint specific places where you got wounded and can be used to help you reconstruct the True You.
Do Business Your Way. If you feel disconnected from the business strategies that you have been told to follow by leading business experts and want to do business in a way that feels most aligned for you, then Human Design can support you with that.
Manifest the Life You Desire. If you want to amplify your magnetism so that you can manifest the life you have always dreamed of, your Human Design will show you exactly how you are meant to connect with the Spirit of Abundance.
Now that you have your chart and the basic introduction to Human Design, you can do a deeper dive to explore the Magic of Your Design™️.
