  • Liberation Through Form: The Mechanics of Being Yourself
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    Liberation Through Form: The Mechanics of Being Yourself

    Let me begin by saying that I'm a very cautious man and the work that I do and the work that I've been doing for 23 years has really been under the radar and it has allowed me and generation after generation of students to be able to work with this knowledge to be able to verify this knowledge, to b

  • Definition: The Key to Alignment
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Definition: The Key to Alignment

    Human Design is the science of differentiation, it is what makes us different. Not what makes us the same. It‘s the receptors that draw us to sameness. We live in a homogenized conditioned world, a world of the not-self. But where differentiation begins it begins in definition because definition lea

    Ra Uru Hu Relationships and Parenting

    The Gift of Awareness: Raising Children According to Their Design

    One of my concerns, and a concern that has been with me for a very long time, is the wellbeing of children. When I was given the knowledge, it was clear to me that one of the great bounties of this knowledge was that it was going to change the way in which children were going to be raised and it beg

  • Profit and the Not-Self: The Business of Being Open
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Profit and the Not-Self: The Business of Being Open

    When you’re looking at your Design, what you're looking at is differentiation imprinting. Remember that; it’s very important. Every cell in your body can replicate you, cloning. Every cell in your body has all the information of all of you. The thing that makes a muscle different from a blood cell i

  • Outside, Watching
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    Outside, Watching

    When you touch this thing, you're getting to the core of the whole mechanism, the whole thing that winds out into this incredible Maia of ours. And to think about these crystals of consciousness, these Design Crystals, the whole package was there in the beginning. Fifteen billion years, like a cat u

  • Plants and the Pattern of Life
    Ra Uru Hu BodyGraph Mechanics

    Plants and the Pattern of Life

    But something to understand about plants at the most profound level is thatevery single plant—that is such a big thing to say, it’s hard—all carry Personality consciousness; all of them. If you look at the Design of a plant, you will see that the plant will sacrifice itself to the conditioning of an

  • The Social Power of the Solar Plexus
    Ra Uru Hu BodyGraph Mechanics

    The Social Power of the Solar Plexus

    It is a great dilemma to deal with the Solar Plexus, it really is. It is a dilemma because it is so incredibly powerful, and it is incredibly powerful not because of what is the potential of its underlying awareness, but it is incredibly powerful because it has an enormous direct influence on those

  • The Illusion of Taking It All In
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    The Illusion of Taking It All In

    Strategic Personalities are always trying to get everything. I guess it’s the influence of the fact that, in terms of the way in which the evolutionary process is moving, we’re moving towards the Right. It’s sort of a way in which the Left is trying to pretend, in a sense, that it’s Right. We’re not

  • Memory Holds the Maia Together
    Ra Uru Hu BodyGraph Mechanics

    Memory Holds the Maia Together

    Let’s talk about memory for a moment. The thing that distinguishes us as a creature is the depth of our memory potential. It is our capacity to remember that is the bedrock of our self-reflected consciousness. Obviously, there are other attributes involved in all of that, but it is something to gras

  • Increasing Tariffs
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    Increasing Tariffs

    Through the 40-37, we have had what is called free trade. Basically, the globalized economy and the opening up of a world in which there are no tariffs. Since the Second World War it’s the thing that has made it possible, for example, for Asia to be able to rise up.

  • Navigating Relationships as a Split Definition
    Ra Uru Hu Relationships and Parenting

    Navigating Relationships as a Split Definition

    Everything about the split definition is that they're here to teach relating. But they do it in different ways. The bridge split says that you’ve got to be able to do this. The broad split says you’ve got to be able to give this. We have an enormous problem in the nature of communion. Human beings o

  • The Power of the Right Environment
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    The Power of the Right Environment

    And when I say what you're here to look at, that’s not just a physical context. It is also an intellectual context, what you’re here to ponder, to muse; all of those things are a byproduct of you being in the right place, being pointed in the right direction of the fulfillment of your story. The sto

  • The Potential for Differentiation
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Potential for Differentiation

    I’m astonished how absolutely absorbed the program is in creating the potential for differentiation. It’s obvious to me that the potential for differentiation is as deep within us as our quantum mechanics and the physics of what it is to exist is built into every single level of us. We’re all here t

  • The Lines of the Profile
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Lines of the Profile

    It has been one of my concerns that has evolved over the last number of years about the problems associated with what we call mind. Everything about the realm of mind is what the passenger interprets as its life. And who you think you are, is a description of the work of the Personality Crystal, or

  • The Link Nodes
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Link Nodes

    So the Nodes, in the graphic, are an instrument for this profound essence of us. It is only here that the two parts are truly brought together. And they are brought together not by both Nodes on either side, but specific Nodes on either side that are called the Link Nodes. And it's these Link Nodes

  • The Influence of the Seven-Centered Being
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The Influence of the Seven-Centered Being

    When I look at the seven-centered being, I look at what it brought us. The whole glory package was in here. This was the whole glory package, this mind, this glory, the absolute incredible glory of mind. And we can understand that. We can understand what it was like that the moment that we began to

  • Beyond Form: The Rave's Conscious Evolution
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    Beyond Form: The Rave's Conscious Evolution

    We’re moving away from the form experience in the world and we’re moving to the consciousness experience beyond the world. That’s the potential of the Rave, to be a component of a consciousness experience that is beyond the form, not interested in the form, not interested in the demands, or needs of

  • The Pretentiousness of the Penta
    Ra Uru Hu Group Mechanics

    The Pretentiousness of the Penta

    Pentas show off. Pretentiousness is not personal to humans. You will not find a single Line in the 384 Lines of the Rave I’Ching, and I know because I wrote them, that says anything about pretentiousness. It’s a Penta attribute. It has nothing to do with us. Pentas are pretentious. They show off the

  • The Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix: The 20/34
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    The Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix: The 20/34

    In 2027, we enter into the Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix, and it is enormously different because it is predicated on this definition—the 20/34. This is deeply, deeply individual. It’s part of the Integration system. It is the backbone of pure selfish individuality. As a matter of fact, it is the

  • The I’Ching and the Hexagrams
    Ra Uru Hu Mandala Mechanics

    The I’Ching and the Hexagrams

    When I was first given the knowledge, and I’ve obviously been talking about that a lot recently, one of the areas that was integral to the knowledge and an area that I literally had absolutely no background in was the I’Ching.

    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    2027: A Frequency Shift, New Form of Awareness, and Why Human Design Exists Today

    We’re waiting for the tools. And oh boy, are we getting close, around 17 years from now (3 years from now since this was recorded in 2010); very close. Most of us, hopefully, will get to see that. I hope I’m around to see that...

  • Dilemmas of the Mystical Way
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    Dilemmas of the Mystical Way

    This circuit, the Mystical Way, obviously could have many names. You could call it the mystical way, the spiritual way, the holy way, the natural way, the this or the that way, whatever you want to call it.

  • Rejection in a Manifestor’s Life
    Ra Uru Hu Type

    Rejection in a Manifestor’s Life

    There's an enormous amount of rejection in a Manifestor's life and not all has to be real. That is, not all of it has to be obvious rejection.

    Ra Uru Hu General

    Genetic Imperatives and the Urge for Connection

    We come to one of those places in looking at the basics of Human Design where we really come to the source of all the dilemmas, the problems, all of the things that make it so difficult for human beings...

  • The Epitome of What’s Possible in Profile: Natural Teaching vs. Mental Teaching
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Epitome of What’s Possible in Profile: Natural Teaching vs. Mental Teaching

    It all goes back to fear. The natural teachers are the 5/1s and the 4/1s ... But mental teaching that arises out of the 1/3 and the 1/4 is something that is totally different.

  • The Voice
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Voice

    The Voice for me—and again, I assume as we move along I will talk about some of these things because they‘re pertinent—the Voice was very powerful.

  • Lines Live Through the Holistic Life
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Lines Live Through the Holistic Life

    Everything to understand about these Lines is to understand it in the context of an audition, where you’re going to audition for a part in a film.

  • Sequencing Larger Cycles
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    Sequencing Larger Cycles

    I was given a lot of information about many things, but larger cycles have always fascinated me the most. I’m much more interested in the organic whole or in large components of the organic whole than I am with the individual.

  • Aloneness
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    Aloneness

    What it begins with is aloneness. Aloneness isn’t something that you’re educated to and I think that aloneness is something that is so important in this process.

    Peter Schoeber Transits

    North Node in 42 | Q4 2023

    The thing that's so incredible about the insect world, is that they are so unbelievably existential. I mean, it would shame Buddha...

    The thing that's fascinating to me is the possibility that is there for us to benefit from our relationship with plants in an entirely new way.

  • The Mutative System
    Ra Uru Hu BodyGraph Mechanics

    The Mutative System

    And as a freak, you spend most of your life trying to find acceptance for being a freak. Most people who are mutative never truly mutate and never bring real mutation into the world. It’s not such an easy piece of business.

  • The Abstract System
    Ra Uru Hu BodyGraph Mechanics

    The Abstract System

    The only time I began to understand how significant the Abstract process really is, was when I began to look deeply into the relationship between Human Design and genetics.

  • The 52nd Gate: Temporary and self-imposed inaction
    Ra Uru Hu BodyGraph Mechanics

    The 52nd Gate: Temporary and self-imposed inaction

    The Sacral keeps going until it’s exhausted. Its natural tendency is to be deeply, deeply connected simply to its energy flow. And the 52nd Gate says, ‘Will you sit down for a minute. Can’t you just sit down?’

  • The Channel of Concentration
    Ra Uru Hu BodyGraph Mechanics

    The Channel of Concentration

    In the Collective Logical sense, that moment of being still is the beginning of the growth of your consciousness.

  • Awareness Frequency
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Awareness Frequency

    Time. Time's one of those strange things that we deal with. We tend to have a need to sort of get everything to conform, you know, the homogenized world. But timings, timings are so different.

  • Lao Tzu and The Seven-Centered Way of Life
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Lao Tzu and The Seven-Centered Way of Life

    In reflecting on Lao Tzu, the thing that was interesting about him is that he had absolutely no faith in human beings. He had no faith in terms of what human beings and their minds were doing.

  • Can't Wear Your Costume Without Color
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    Can't Wear Your Costume Without Color

    The Sun/Earth is 70% of who you are. This is your Profile. This is the costume, the grand role that you have on your Cross this time. Perfection is living out that role.

    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Magnetic Monopole: The Heart and Soul of Human Design

    I have the privilege of having lived long enough to see the substantiation of the underlying physics of imprinting—the neutrino with mass being scientifically verified—and the statistical verification of the division of humanity consistently into specific Types and Profiles.

  • The Path to Authenticity: Understanding Our True Nature
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Path to Authenticity: Understanding Our True Nature

    What is important for you to take from today is a new perspective, to begin to look at what the not-self is as a manifested existence, as a manifested form, to see it alive and well in the world around you.

  • The Way Begins with the Body
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    The Way Begins with the Body

    So 1st and 2nd Color beings, if you're going to enter onto the way, the way begins with your body; transformation starts with your diet. The catalyst is Strategy and Authority. It's always the same, that's the catalyst.

  • Will Humanity Disappear?
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    Will Humanity Disappear?

    It's almost as if Neptune is the ultimate partner of the program pulling a sheath over the close of the process, smothering away from sight what's really going on, the degeneration, the breakdown and the dissolution of the human potential.

  • The Mechanics of Availability

    The Mechanics of Availability

    Sexuality in human beings according to Human Design is based on two fundamental themes.

  • The Social Bargain Is Breaking Down
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    The Social Bargain Is Breaking Down

    After all, that's the only reason the bargain is there. I hope you get that. The only reason that the bargain is there is because there is a wave in the emotional system, and the bargain is an attempt to fix the wave.

  • The Completely Open Center is Defenseless
    Ra Uru Hu Mind and Conditioning

    If you have a hanging gate you have something to literally hang on. But the moment that it’s totally open there is no defense.

    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The Personality Crystal, Design Crystal and the Magnetic Monopole

    When you think about Design, a wonderful place to go is here in the center of the G Center, the identity. In here, we have what's called the Magnetic Monopole, that which holds us together in the illusion of our separateness

  • We're Not Here to Conform
    Ra Uru Hu Group Mechanics

    We're Not Here to Conform

  • The Possibility of Living Your Incarnation Cross
    Ra Uru Hu Mandala Mechanics

    The Possibility of Living Your Incarnation Cross

  • The Nature of the Stars
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Nature of the Stars

    Peter Schoeber Transits

    Jupiter in 25: Into the Unknown

    If you look at the Channel, the Ego connected with the G, this unlikely connection, what does the Ego have to do with the G? The Ego brings an energy or a power and the G brings an identity or a direction.

  • Unaware Partnership
    Ra Uru Hu Relationships and Parenting

  • Uranus: A Game Changer
    Peter Schoeber Transits

    Uranus: A Game Changer

    Our Sexuality Identity Is Under Pressure

    Neptune in Gate 36: Crisis, Change, and New Emotional Experiences

    If one has, for a long time, the Channel of Transitoriness, there will be some transitoriness, things will find its end and new things may start. And one also has to say, talking about the more, let's say, attractive part of that transit, that is that the whole Sensing Stream has a lot to do, of cou

    Homo Sapiens in Transitus: We Are A Transitional Form

    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    Change Your Environment: Take Control of Your Health

    The first 30 years of a nine-centered being is just eating correctly and being raised according to your Type. That’s the only requirement in the first 30 years. It’s only at 30 that you begin to set your life in motion. So we’re making up time in that sense.

  • The Heart Center: THE Not-Self
    Ra Uru Hu Mind and Conditioning

    The Heart Center: THE Not-Self

    We have a funny thing, this Heart Center, this little box there, this little triangle. There is nothing in the BodyGraph that is more complex. It is so complex and dense in its biological values, it's unlike anything that is there in the BodyGraph.

  • Connection in Relationships
    Ra Uru Hu Relationships and Parenting

    Connection in Relationships

    We’re all fascinated with our connection with the other. Most novices in Human Design are fascinated with seeing their chart connected to somebody else’s chart. It’s revelatory at that level.

  • All Roads Lead to the Throat Center
    Ra Uru Hu General

    All Roads Lead to the Throat Center

    It is so interesting for me going back to the original Rave Anatomy text and seeing where my priorities were at that time. After all, it was put together in the early ‘90s. In laying it out, I was laying out the basic infrastructure of how I would teach people the nature of the BodyGraph.

    My theme today—because we've been looking at the Sun moving through these Gates that close out the cycle and as we approach the Rave New Year, which again, remember, will be on the 22nd of the month—we now have, and have had the Sun in the 61st Gate.

  • Why Look at the Mundane New Year?
    Peter Schoeber Transits

    Why Look at the Mundane New Year?

    So, what does the mundane New Year show us? Why should we have a look at it? I'm convinced that we can look at the BodyGraph of the mundane New Year the same way we look at the Rave Return or the Solar Return which we know from the individual analysis.

  • Sailing Neutrino Seas
    Ra Uru Hu General

    It began in the imagination of Wolfgang Pauli. I mean, he was trying to solve some basic principles of physics and couldn't come up with a solution and basically invented something that would satisfy the demands of the equation.

  • Unnecessary Pain
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Unnecessary Pain

    The moment that anybody can give up attaching reasons to chemistry is the moment that you really begin the journey of an aware being on this plane. It is such a beautiful thing to be aware. You do not have unnecessary pain.

  • A New Epoch
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    A New Epoch

    The next epoch will take with it what it takes with it, but it will live what is programmed. We have 20 years to close the door. There’s 20 years for science to verify the monopole. There’s 20 years for me to prove incarnation.

  • Passenger Consciousness
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Passenger Consciousness

    The beauty of this process at its deepest level is to reconnect you with you. And what I mean by that is the moment that the mind stops being your decision maker it has to be busy with something; mind is always busy, it's watching.

  • The 2nd Tone: Attuned to Mutation
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The 2nd Tone: Attuned to Mutation

    This is the whole thing about the 2nd Tone. It's the thing that makes us so mysterious as creatures because it's the only thing we have that can recognize something that's never been recognized before.

  • The Transformation of the Form
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    The Transformation of the Form

    What happened to me in this process is that I took the dualistic trail; I'm a dualist. On one side, there is the mystery of the Design Crystal. It is truly an incredible thing, the way in which the form principle unfolds.
