    Peter Schoeber Human Design Concepts

    The Importance of Understanding the Transit Field

    We normally say that the most important conditioning influences are the people in our lives. That’s true. But if you have somebody close to you, if somebody is together in the same space with you, you are aware of it...

  • Projectors: One Person at a Time
    Ra Uru Hu Type

    Projectors: One Person at a Time

    You have to understand what you are as a force. There is nothing like being one-on-one with a Projector. If you have to get something off your chest, there is nothing better than having a Projector in front of you...

  • The Bargains of the Background Frequency
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    The Bargains of the Background Frequency

  • Parvati: Pressure and Stress
    Ra Uru Hu Mandala Mechanics

    Parvati: Pressure and Stress

    If you listen to my radio show today on stress, it was inspired by preparing the illustration for Serin. You’ve got five Root Gates. So, the first thing to understand about sweet old Parvati is that she is a chemistry of pressure and stress.

  • Living Life for Yourself
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Living Life for Yourself

    The biggest achievement that you have in your life is your experimentation with Strategy and Authority, because that's really an amazing thing when you look at the world out there and you begin to understand how dense conditioning really is.

  • Mind Stands in the Way
    Ra Uru Hu Mind and Conditioning

    Mind Stands in the Way

    One of the great dilemmas that you’re going to face as we move along in this journey is understanding that what stands in the way is mind. As long as your mind is going to be in charge of your decision making process...

  • We are Here to See Uniquely
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    We are Here to See Uniquely

    You want to see? You have to see from a platform that's correct, because the moment that your vehicle is correct, the moment that you’re in the right environment is the moment you've got the right perspective. And then you can see.

  • Human Violence
    Ra Uru Hu Group Mechanics

    Human Violence

    It’s an amazing thing about the nature of human violence. It was one of the things in my own studies that I’ve tried to look at and see and discover many themes in the mechanics.

  • Trans-Auric Forms Condition Humanity
    Ra Uru Hu Group Mechanics

    Trans-Auric Forms Condition Humanity

    The reality is the world is dominated by trans-auric forms. Most of the things we think are ugly in human beings aren’t in your personal chart, have never been in your personal chart. But they come alive in trans-auric forms.

  • Humans Needed the Mystical Way
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    Humans Needed the Mystical Way

    It’s extraordinary, this search, and we see it in so many ways. Whether you see it as esoteric, New Age, counterculture, traditional, this and that and all the various things, this is the end of it.

  • The Gates of Fear: 18 & 28
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The Gates of Fear: 18 & 28

    This fear of Authority begins with the archetype of the mother and the father. The 18th Gate is the Oedipus-Electra Gate. It is here that we begin to examine the opposite sex, that we begin to challenge whether...

  • Tapping into your Life Force
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Tapping into your Life Force

    At the very basis of Human Design is a goal — the goal to liberate the self, the being, the unique being, the individual. And of course, the only way you can do that is you have to move away from mind, because...

  • Stop Wondering about Yourself and Just Watch
    Ra Uru Hu Relationships and Parenting

    Stop Wondering about Yourself and Just Watch

    I talked about that when I finally understood and looked at my emotional system, and the various streams of sexuality and the way it operated within myself, it was an enormous relief to see it for what it is, and without any judgment.

  • The Human Experiential Way
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The Practicality of Rave Cosmology

  • The Costumes of Life
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The Costumes of Life

    Profile is an extraordinary thing. It is really the costume of life, it is the costume of your purpose. And in saying that, it is something to grasp about the nature of Profile. Everyone, no matter who they are...

  • Bypassing the Decision-Making Mind
    Ra Uru Hu Mind and Conditioning

    Bypassing the Decision-Making Mind

    Everything about Human Design can get distilled down to a number of things. The first thing is to understand that all of this is about being able to deal with your mind. It’s about being able to replace your decision-making mind with another mechanism that you can use and trust.

  • Our Concept of the Material Plane Is a Lie
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Our Concept of the Material Plane Is a Lie

    If we operated correctly on this plane, nobody would be without. And not that it would be some kind of socialist utopia; it has nothing do with that. It’s simply that nobody would really be without.

  • How to Nourish Your Difference
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    How to Nourish Your Difference

    The right dietary regimen enhances the neural development. It doesn't close it down. Because what's happening to you when you eat according to your dietary regimen is that you're taking in precisely what is correct for you to nourish your difference.

  • The 26th Gate and Bird Flu
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The 26th Gate and Bird Flu

    When you look at this Design, you see that the whole world of birds, reptiles and fish, the whole community of them world-wide, is opened up to anything that is going to sit in the 26th Gate (including transits).

  • The Phoenicians
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Phoenicians

  • Strategic Communion and Lies
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    Strategic Communion and Lies

    It’s one of the things I’ve talked about over the years, what it means to have your inner Authority separated from your mental system. Think about what it really means when your mind is both Inner and Outer Authority.

  • The Emergence of Magic
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Emergence of Magic

    Let's go back thousands of years to the beginning of the story, to the emergence of magic. What’s it really about? It begins with understanding just the BodyGraph mechanism. We are looking at two Gates...

  • Be Present
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Be Present

    “Be here now” is a popularized philosophy Ram Dass, an American spiritual teacher, is well known for—but is it something everyone can live by? Why do we have difficulties with being present?

  • Our Profile Roles
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    Our Profile Roles

    Everybody‘s role changes depending on whether they are in a collective situation, an individual situation, or a tribal situation. All the work that I do on expanding the understanding of the Personality is to bring everybody the opportunity to see the mapping of how they operate.

  • Variable: The Blueprint of Brain, Body, and Mind
    Tom Bonoma The Four Transformations

    Variable: The Blueprint of Brain, Body, and Mind

    We all have times when we notice our mind is working well, and we also tend to be more familiar than we’d like with the times our mind doesn’t seem to work at all. In such moments we can find ourselves wondering...

  • The Channel
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The Channel

    There's so much information available that when you're looking at a Design, the simple things in Human Design are often left behind and at great risk because despite its depth, it is in fact simple knowledge...

  • 1781: The Beginning of a New Process
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    1781: The Beginning of a New Process

    The first real esoteric knowledge about the nature of a being was introduced by the Hindu Brahmans. It was the 7 chakra system, the 7-centered being. The process of the 7-centered being is what our history is...

  • The Fates and Gate 30
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The Fates and Gate 30

    Logic is always seeking the perfect pattern, and the perfect pattern is possible. But for the Abstract, there can be no such thing.

  • Self-Love
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Self-Love

    I think often there's a great deal of confusion about what I mean when I ask people, in a sense remind them, to love themselves. Self-love is really an incredible thing; I think it is one of the rarest things that we have on the planet.

  • Seekers
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Seekers

    I've seen so many seekers at this point in my career that in some ways, it's disheartening. There is a Channel in the BodyGraph, the 11/56, which is the Channel of Curiosity. It’s the Design of the Seeker...

  • Giving Children Their Own Authority
    Ra Uru Hu Relationships and Parenting

    Giving Children Their Own Authority

    We need children to be awakened; they’re going to carry the energy into the future. They’re the ones who are going to have to deal with the great mutation of 2027 and live in a world that is radically different.

  • Success on the Material Plane
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Success on the Material Plane

    One of those old jokes that I've had in my teachings of Human Design over the years is that basically, you can create any title—better sex, better this, better that, whatever the case may be—in the end, it really comes down to the same thing: It comes down to operating correctly.

  • The Magnetic Monopole and Human Design
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The Magnetic Monopole and Human Design

    One of the core aspects, and most extraordinary mysteries of Human Design is the Magnetic Monopole. Within the framework of Human Design, the neutrino and the magnetic monopole allow us to reliably look at how we operate, and the ways the world operates.

  • Introduction to the Gates of Melancholy
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    Introduction to the Gates of Melancholy

  • The Background Frequency Will Change the Way We Bond
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    The thing about the background frequency is that it’s going to eliminate one of the basic elements of how human beings operate, which is through sexual allure.

  • The Door Closes in a Few Years
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    The Door Closes in a Few Years

    The glue of the Cross of Planning has held together our lives for the last 400 years. But there will soon be no inherent need, drive, or purpose fulfilled through coming together to protect that way of life.

    Leela Swann-Herbert Rave New Year

    The Moon and Pluto: Reviewing 2018 Transits

    2018 was the third year in a row that Gate 36, Crisis, was activated in the Rave New Year transits. It was a year in which one crisis led to another, as the world watched the collective drive of 6th line themes of Justice.

    Rave Year 2018 – A Look in Review through the Nodal View Points

  • The Beauty of The Mundane
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Beauty of The Mundane

    There’s always people who come up to me or write to me and want to tell me their stories. Mystical experiences, esoteric experiences, unusual experiences that they’ve had.

  • A Simple Guide to Variable
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    A Simple Guide to Variable

    Variable is about the ‘box’, it’s about the mind. It’s actually not even about the mind but what's behind the mind, and becoming what's behind the mind. Let me explain to you first what Variable actually is.

  • The Domain of the Dreamer
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The Domain of the Dreamer

    We spend approximately a third of our lives asleep. It seems to be something that is built into nature. There are different forms of life that sleep, and yet, at the same time, science really doesn’t have an explanation.

  • The Source of Paranormal Entities
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Source of Paranormal Entities

    Everything Human Design teaches about the Personality Crystal is that we basically live in a Personality shell. To really grasp that we are limited by the way in which we can perceive frequency...

  • Don’t Make Decisions with the Mind
    Ra Uru Hu Mind and Conditioning

    Don’t Make Decisions with the Mind

    The moment that you live your life according to your mind, making decisions according to your mind, there’s just no way you’ll be able to fulfill the potential that is there for you.

  • The Catalyst to Transformation
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    The Catalyst to Transformation

  • Manifestor Strategy: To Inform
    Ra Uru Hu Type

    Manifestor Strategy: To Inform

    Manifestors are told that their strategy is to Inform. That seems so simple: Tell people what you're going to do before you do it, and you won't meet resistance. But that's not what life has taught them...

  • The Cross of Sleeping Phoenix
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    The Cross of Sleeping Phoenix

  • Logic and Perfection
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Logic and Perfection

    Logic has something that no other form of awareness has: It can actually pursue perfection.

  • Uniqueness
    Ra Uru Hu General

    Uniqueness

    Living Your Design is not about “Well, why should I do that?” or “Why does that work?” If you don't know why you should do it, then you probably shouldn't be here in the first place.

  • Split Definitions teach us How to be in a Partnership
    Ra Uru Hu Relationships and Parenting

    Split Definitions teach us How to be in a Partnership

    The split definition can teach others how to be in a partnership because they know what's missing. They know what it means to have someone make an enormous difference in their lives.

  • The Influence of Dreams
    Ra Uru Hu General

    The Influence of Dreams

    The work in DreamRave includes the ability to understand the actual mechanism of the sleep state, and the mechanical ways in which we are being conditioned and homogenized in that process.

    Ra Uru Hu Relationships and Parenting

    Treating Your Child According to Their Nature

    An excerpt from “A Human Design Guide to Parenting” by Ra Uru Hu: "Nothing has disturbed me more over the years than to see the relationship between parents and children, where the parents simply do not see the child..."

    Are you willing to trust someone else about what is correct for you in your life?

  • The Mind is Not for Decision Making
    Ra Uru Hu Mind and Conditioning

    The Mind is Not for Decision Making

    Human Design says something that has never been said before: “Your mind is not for decision making.” That’s all the mind has ever been, the decision maker.

  • Projectors
    Ra Uru Hu Type

    Projectors

    In 1781, something new happened: It’s called Projector. We live in a world where Projectors are truly on the ascendancy, now representing about 1/5 of humanity.

  • Defining Definition in Human Design
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    Defining Definition in Human Design

  • The Third Transformation: Perspective
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    The Third Transformation: Perspective

    Perhaps one of the most insightful aspects about this knowledge is the ability to see exactly how the unique mind works, both as Not-Self and in terms of its potential as differentiated awareness.

  • Rave History: Pluto Interregnum
    Ra Uru Hu 2027 and Global Cycles

    Rave History: Pluto Interregnum

    Welcome to Rave History. Today is all about Pluto. Poor Pluto has been publicly shamed by the world astronomical society and reduced from being a planet to a dwarf. I don't think Pluto is deeply appreciative of that...

  • Trust in Your Body’s Consciousness
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    Trust in Your Body’s Consciousness

    You have to trust in the form consciousness, because if you don't allow your vehicle to run your life, you're lost in the old model. There will be no transformation, there will be no awakening.

  • Environment and Health
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    Environment and Health

    In many ways, environment sets you irreversibly on a new course of consciousness. It is one of the most beautiful things I have seen in all the years I’ve worked with this knowledge: the Design Nodes.

    Ra Uru Hu Relationships and Parenting

    Love and Acceptance

    Time for a moment on love. Let's look at love from a totally different perspective. Let's just think about it for a moment as choiceless geometries. Like two birds flying along in space together...

  • Digestion
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    Digestion

    One of the most extraordinary things about the knowledge of Human Design is understanding that each of us have a unique way in which we are designed to take nutrition into our body.

    Leela Swann-Herbert Rave New Year

  • How to use the Rave New Year 2018
    Leela Swann-Herbert Rave New Year

    How to use the Rave New Year 2018

    We are used to thinking of the New Year as a time to make resolutions, to look forward to a better version of ourselves. We even say, “Have a Happy New Year”; as if wishing it would make the whole package of change and happiness come true.

  • The Rave New Year: Stage 3 and 4
    Ra Uru Hu Rave New Year

    The Rave New Year: Stage 3 and 4

    When you get to the Sun in Gate 61, Inner Truth, and on the other side Gate 62 (the facts please, just the facts), you look back and see whether purpose and spirit have been fulfilled.

  • The Rave New Year: Stage 1 and 2
    Ra Uru Hu Rave New Year

    The Rave New Year: Stage 1 and 2

    From the moment I was given the knowledge, I began this very long process of trying to get as many people as I could to understand that December 31 is not the end of the Solar cycle.

  • For now: Survival is Funny and Life is Serious
    Ra Uru Hu General

    For now: Survival is Funny and Life is Serious

    It is an ancient debate, a classic duality: Comedy and Tragedy. There is the proverbial banana peel, the one who slips on it has a tragic fall and the witness can’t help but laugh.

  • The Design of Forms: The Penta
    Ra Uru Hu Group Mechanics

    The Design of Forms: The Penta

    We are all born into Pentas, we go to school in them, we work in them – Penta is very much a part of the nature of being. The trans-auric form is something that almost smacks of science fiction until you...

  • The Magic of the BodyGraph
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The Magic of the BodyGraph

    For me, the BodyGraph is really the most fantastic aspect of the Human Design System. It is the only aspect of the mechanical construct that is truly original.

  • Generators
    Ra Uru Hu Type

    Generators

    Generators… Everything about being a Generator is about how you use your energy. You are THE energy beings, you are THE life force on the planet.

  • The Mechanics of Death
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    The Mechanics of Death

    I was given the design, or mechanics, of the various forms: the forms of bio-life, inanimate forms and trans-auric forms. I was also given something else: the knowledge about the mechanics of death.

  • Left-ness and Right-ness in Traditional Education
    Ra Uru Hu The Four Transformations

    Left-ness and Right-ness in Traditional Education

    One of the major problems we have in education is that it is based on a methodology that is rooted in, what in Design terms is called, the Strategic.

  • Incarnation Cross, Purpose, and the Unique Life
    Leela Swann-Herbert Human Design Concepts

    Incarnation Cross, Purpose, and the Unique Life

    Purpose is an interesting concept for the mind; that there must be some higher valuation than the physical life of the body, a reason for this personal existence, and that there is something that must be done or accomplished.

  • What Does Human Design Do for You?
    Ra Uru Hu Human Design Concepts

    What Does Human Design Do for You?

    I’m often asked a lot of questions, obviously, about Human Design. And I think one of the most basic questions anyone asks is, what does it really do for you?

    Leela Swann-Herbert 2027 and Global Cycles

    2027: A View through Neptune’s Veil

  • 2027: A New Cycle
    Leela Swann-Herbert 2027 and Global Cycles

    2027: A New Cycle

  • Open Heart
    Ra Uru Hu Mind and Conditioning

    Open Heart

  • Living with Feeling: A Field Guide to the Solar Plexus
    Leela Swann-Herbert Human Design Concepts

    Living with Feeling: A Field Guide to the Solar Plexus

  • Commentary on Parenting
    Ra Uru Hu Relationships and Parenting

  • Chasing Shadows
    Leela Swann-Herbert Mind and Conditioning

  • The Future of Humanity is in Our Hands
    Leela Swann-Herbert Relationships and Parenting

    The Future of Humanity is in Our Hands
