The world needs you. You are a valuable part of the cosmic plan, and we are all being called on to usher in a new energetic era. We are moving away from the energy of the Human Design Incarnation Cross of Planning and into the Incarnation Cross known as the Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix. This is a significant shift because we have been operating under the energy of the Cross of Planning for over 400 years.
The Cross of Planning began in 1615 and is about the human tendency to over-plan and focus on the future, rather than living in the present. It carried with it conflict, and creation of structures and institutions such as healthcare, education, religion and political systems, many of which we see beginning to falter as they struggle to maintain their mission as we evolve.
The Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix is about evolution, an awakening, rising from the ashes and living in the present. It is about individuals waking up to their potential and purpose and about love. The problem for most of us is that we have been so conditioned by what society believes is best that we have forgotten some of our potential and struggle with our purpose.
We are living in a version of ourselves that society deems favorable rather than living unapologetically in our full potential. Society values conformity over differences and we hide some of what makes us unique to fit in and be accepted.
This new era is the era of the individual. We are being called upon to bring our uniqueness forward, to live our purpose unapologetically as our fully expressed authentic selves, and to make the contribution we are divinely designed to make and is so needed in the world today.
Do You Know Your True Self?
Sadly, many of us have forgotten who we are and the amazing energy we have inside us because we have been busy trying to be who we think we should be rather than who we are.
Human Design is an amazing personal development tool that gives us a window into our soul’s purpose and all the characteristics that make us unique and support us in fulfilling our purpose. Having an awareness of the authentic you and embodying it gives you clarity, direction, confidence, satisfaction, and joy.
I believe everyone should become aware of their Human Design and to thrive in the new era, embody it and live their full potential unapologetically, regardless of what societal norms are. Societies change but individuals should remain steadfast and grounded in their own energy to remain strong and equipped to gracefully navigate the changes as we evolve.
How Human Design Can Support You.
Human Design reveals your unique energetic blueprint. It can give insight into almost every aspect of your life, relationships, career, and business. I have been a student of Human Design for over 7 years, and I am still gaining new insights into myself and the people around me every day.
The word I hear used most to describe it is “validating” when people realize why they do things the way they do, why that relationship was hard to make work, or they get confirmation why a certain line of work didn’t feel like a good fit.
Human Design is a roadmap for life and business. Gaining awareness with something like a live reading or picking up a book about it is a great first step, but the real magic is when you begin to dive deep and live it and apply it to your life.
One of my clients used to describe her scattered energy as her ADD brain. She was frustrated by the way she was working, not to mention exhausted at the end of every day. When we looked at her chart, she was a Projector working from home due to Covid in a house full of Manifesting Generators. Manifesting Generators have the fastest energy on the planet and are like energizer bunnies. Projectors don’t have fast, unlimited energy and she was trying so hard to keep up with the prevailing energy in the house, she was exhausting herself! She explained this to her family, stood in who she was and set boundaries around working together that completely turned the energy in the house around.
Linda, another client, was having difficulties at work. She felt very unsuccessful and was fearful that she was going to get fired for lack of performance. But after hearing her story and looking at her Human Design, it was clear that she was being stifled at work, unable to express her ideas, or work the way she knew was best for her by a boss that was controlling and micromanaged. This freedom of expression was a key element in who she was. She gained insight into her situation and how to work with her boss to improve the relationship and get the freedom of expression she needed.
Your chart contains your type, strategy, decision making authority, your profile, centers, channels and gates, each playing a role in who you came here to be. The energies in the gates have a light side and a shadow side. These energies are your natural skills and talents, your potential. If you are living in the shadow side of one or more of the energies, sometimes a small mindset shift or behavioral change can make a huge difference.
Carol was having trouble making money and finding success in her business. She had the energy of allowing in her chart, but she had a lot of negative self-talk around being good enough and it was getting in the way of her allowing herself to receive. A little work in this area, some proof in her chart about why she questioned her worthiness and some affirmations and other tools, helped her turn this energy around so she could live in the light side of this energy to open the flow of abundance.
The best thing you can do for yourself in this new era, in your life, in your business life to thrive is to use your Human Design to understand your potential and apply your insights to support you in becoming unapologetically you.
