Why Human Design?
When Human Design came into my life, it was during a time when I was a bit lost. My business was still seemingly going well, but I wasn’t settled. I was back to seeking, looking, longing for more. A friend invited me to go with her to Hawaii, and I said yes. I knew that invitation was important and would be a pivotal moment in my life, and everything in me said SAY YES! So I did.
Within moments of arriving to our Airbnb and reuniting with my friend, she thrust me into a conversation about Human Design and begin reading to me my chart. Everything she mentioned resonated to a point that I had to know more. By the end of the week, I knew that I wanted to learn more about Human Design and how this could help more people.
In the months since my introduction to Human Design, I have really dived into the who, what and how of it. What excites me is knowing how this relates to my purpose; how it shows me my blind spots and how I am in relationships. The knowing is everything, the awareness now that I have of why I do what I do, and the patterns in my life help to make sense of most things.
One thing I’m passionate about is mental health. My mental health took a toll 4 years ago and honestly things haven’t been the same since. It’s like something broke in my head and although the bleeding has stopped, the scar tissue still causes issues.
I’m looking for clues to why I think the way I do, why my brain defaults to certain thoughts, and how I can better control them. Nighttime is the worst, I get sad and think of all the things I didn’t do during the waking hours and how more behind I am. I have the tools to get me on track, but it’s hard.
I know there are clues inside my design as to why this happens. Could it be my undefined solar plexus not knowing how to process my emotions and feelings properly. Could it be my open head running wild with questions and thoughts that don’t matter. Or is it simply my open G-Center and lack of direction, purpose add the pressure from my defined Root to figure it out at any cost.
I think what I loved about Human Design initially was it literally gave me permission and made me feel seen for the first time. It has answered questions and shown a light on so many aspects in my life that I thought were wrong about me.
I want to say that my mission right now is finding a way for Human Design to help us get a handle on our mental health. I want to find where in our chart we lead to depression and lean into suicide. Likewise, I want to find the gate or channel or combination that can lead to distress and chaos and even murder.
Human Design answers so much, is it too much to ask that it answers this too?
