The above image is the Human Design Mandala. Added
to the bodygraph is a triple wheel. The wheel itself represents the universe
surrounding us, and it represents our inner selves as well – ‘as within, so
without’. Each of us is a microcosm that replicates the macrocosm (the universe).
It is this simple but profound fact that enables those trained in the Human
Design System to look into future trends in the world around us, and indeed
in the influences that affect each one of us.
Around the inner wheel are the 12 signs of the zodiac.
Although Human Design uses the same wheel as astrology, it divides and interprets
the wheel differently. For those in Human Design, astrology is but one part
of a synthesis that is profoundly deep, although we do also acknowledge that
in-depth astrology can also be a valuable tool in self-discovery. As in astrology,
transit readings play an integral part of day to day analysis in Human Design,
and this type of reading are available from those analysts trained in that particular
branch of the knowledge.
The next wheel is divided into 64 major divisions
called ‘gates’. These correspond to the numbers you see in the nine centres
on the bodygraph at the centre of the mandala. These ‘gates’ have a direct relationship
to the 64 hexagrams of the ancient I Ching. The 'chops' or graphics outside
of the wheel correspond with each of the 64 hexagrams.
The position of the planets at the time of your birth
'activates' certain positions or gates within the wheel, revealing your own
personal attributes. The divisions of the wheel are so small that the activations
can change in a very short time span, potentially making a significant change
in a chart minute by minute. This is why an accurate birth time is required
to do an in-depth Human Design reading. However, experimentation with the chart
can validate that a chosen time is indeed accurate and that it corresponds with
one’s genetic makeup. An experienced analyst may ask you certain questions regarding
your life to confirm the accuracy of your birth time if there is a doubt.
One of the first things you’ll notice about your bodygraph
is that there are red and black lines or/and half lines between the centres.
The difference between the red and the black is simple.
The red indicates what motivates and drives you in
your life. You can never have direct access to that drive, it is a little like
the unconscious in you, the underlying, hidden part of you. Having said that,
it may well be what others see in you all the time. It is this red aspect that
corresponds to your form, your body, and the correlation of that aspect with
your internal chemistry is something new to even the most experienced astrologers.
The black represents everything that is conscious
and that to which you have direct access to, when an analyst tells you the meaning
behind anything that is black in your chart, you’ll have an immediate recognition
of the truth of their statements. It represents your conscious personality.
For students of Human Design students it is possible
to actually discover one’s role in life – the underlying pattern of why we incarnated
by reading one’s incarnation cross – where the red and the black of our sun
and earth gates cross. Knowing your incarnation cross is another huge key to
understanding the context of your life.
The next thing to understand is your type and
strategy explained on the Four Types page.
