Know the Fundamental Human Design Building Blocks

When we first learn and work with Human Design, we start by learning the individual components that make up a Design.  We learn about Type and Authority.  About Profiles and Channels.  About Incarnation Crosses aka Life Themes.  Maybe we dive into learning about the individual Gates or take on understanding Lines.

We all start out studying and applying these basics in order to comprehend and communicate the nature of a Design.  Just learning these ingredients is powerful and can be life changing for yourself and others. I teach you the foundational components of Human Design in my Level 1 Class.

But it doesn’t stop there.  There is so much more.

Integrate All Human Design Components

When we grow our capacity to integrate all of the components together, the power of our analysis and communication of a person’s Design expands exponentially.

For example, you no longer just see a Generator Design.  Then see they have a 5/1 Profile.  Then check to see that they have Emotional Inner Authority.  At first glance, you ‘get’ that they are a 5/1 Emotional Generator and would instantly understand how different this Generator is to the 1/3 Sacral Generator you worked with the other day.

You start to see groupings of Human Design components as integrated super-components.  Your analysis becomes holistic and you can convey a Human Design as a whole.

The Depth and Breadth of Holistic Analysis

The simple example above just used 3 components:  Type, Inner Authority and Profile.  How many components can be integrated?  How about 20, easily.  Can you even imagine the possible number of combinations from just these 20 aspects of a Human Design? It is in the millions.  As we grow our capacity to recognize these traits individually and then synthesize them holistically our readings and interpretations carry more and more accuracy.

Deliver the Information in the Client’s Language

We all want the delivery of a Human Design reading to be accurate and impactful. It is what we are here to do!

We increase accuracy as we learn to see the individual components in a holistic manner.  The impact of a Human Design reading increases when we speak and transmit the information in the client’s language, the client’s energetic framework.

If you are working with a client who is predominately logical in their mental constructs, that is how to best convey the information, logically.  Step by step.  Speak about how this can assist their future.  If you, as a practitioner, are more conceptual, this begs that you adjust your communication style to better match your client.

If you are working with a Manifestor, please don’t ask them questions.  If you are reading for a Projector, using an invitational style will do wonders.  If you are reading for a Generator or Manifesting Generator you will know if you you are reaching them by witnessing their sacral responses.  This list is endless.

The ability to shift your delivery style to match your client increases as you understand both your Design and your client’s Design holistically. It takes time to be able to read and deliver a Design in such a manner.  The Level 2 Relationships course naturally has you learn about inter-connections.  Then in the Level 3 Holistic Analysis course your understanding and practice deepens more.

Why Learn Human Design at Such a Deep Level?

Because the better we can see the beauty and power of a Design, the better we can convey that beauty and power to a client, and the better they can step into and own their own magnificence.

This Training Program is Developed to Take You From Learning the Fundamentals to Delivering Holistic Readings

Theory versus Practice

Human Design is meant to be embodied.

We all have to learn and understand the Human Design System and our own Design intellectually and theoretically. But it does us absolutely no good if we don’t embody and integrate our Human Design into our way of living.

Without application Human Design is worthless.  It just remains a parlor trick.

I want YOU to embody your unique Human Design and experience how it transforms your life.  The more you integrate your Design into your way of life, the more positive impact you will have on your clients.

Designs Speak to Us

Designs speak to us. They tell us stuff even before we’ve met our prospect or client.

As a life and business coach knowing a person’s Human Design allows me to get to the heart of the matter quickly and with precision.  A client is struggling to make money? Knowing their Human Design has me giving them 1000% better support; and they learning and embodying their own Design grows their confidence.

Telling a person about their Design is a place to begin. Telling a person about their Design in the context of their life issues and aspirations is better. Supporting a person to apply Human Design to their own lives and watching them finally soar is the ultimate satisfaction.

Once Embodied Never Forgotten

Over the years at personal development workshops I would get asked to name my favorite job. That was always so easy for me…teaching people to swim! I put myself through college life-guarding and teaching kids and adults to swim. It still brings a smile to my face. What turned me on about this job was teaching a person a skill, supporting them through their learning process and knowing from that day forward they would always know how to swim. 

People don’t forget how to swim.  Just like they don’t forget how to ride a bike. The result is applied knowledge and it is now integral to the person. 

This same dynamic happens when a person learns and then integrates their Human Design into their way of living. They move forward in life with a new ease and confidence able to generate one success after another. 

How to apply the Human Design System of energy to a person’s life is what I focus on throughout this training series. 

The Human Design System is Simply Amazing.

If you’ve come to read about this training program without any knowledge of Human Design, you can read more about it here: What is Human Design.

Human Design is powerful. Like any tool, when used with respect and awareness it can accomplish great good. However, when transmitted and applied carelessly, it can cause suffering.  Over the years of working with Human Design…studying it. Reading for clients. Coaching long-term clients from the perspective of their Human Design as well as teaching Human Design, I have developed my own beliefs about how to best leverage this body of information.

So I have developed my own Core Beliefs or Code of Ethics in teaching and delivering Human Design to my clients and students.

Catherine Rivers’ Human Design Core Beliefs/ Code of Ethics

• • Our use of language and the words we use shape our reality, shape our experience of life. Words matter in the delivery of Human Design information.
  • All Designs are beautiful and amazing.  There are no good Designs, no bad Designs, no better than or worse than Designs. 
  • All components of a Design are positive and empowering.
  • We, our aura and essence, vibrate at a unique frequency. If we have a life perspective that is primarily fear-based, we vibrate at a lower frequency. If we have a life perspective that is based on trust and unconditional love, we vibrate at a higher frequency. Our personal frequency impacts the expression of our Design. I believe lasting transformation occurs as we raise our frequency.
  • As Human Design professionals we are here to support our clients to live from their Inner Authority, we are not here to make personal choices on their behalf.
  • Human Design is an energetic not a moralistic modality. We are a stand for a person’s energetic makeup and must refrain from any moralistic interpretations.
  • The ultimate purpose of Human Design work is to leave the client aware and empowered.

Please Consider These Consequences

• What will happen if you transmit your own fears through your Human Design Reading?
• What would happen if someone came to you for information regarding their relationships and you allied with your client that their partner acted wrongly?
• What will happen if you tell someone they have a challenging Design?
• What will happen if you are worried you aren’t giving a good reading as you sit with your client?
• and…and…and…

• Class sessions will include handouts that I have created.
