Learning the Human Design System

With Zen Human Design education you learn
• to read the body graph with fluidity and competence
• to understand your own life experience through the body graph
• to know for yourself and to speak Human Design with your own words

For a solid, quick start, consider taking classes #1 and potentially #2 below, followed by a session with Chaitanyo.

Zen Human Design education has evolved from the original Human Design School and been honed over more than two decades. It follows the chapters of Human Design Revealed and for quick and optimal learning it is recommended that you follow each step in sequence, even if you think you know basic Human Design already. This is particularly important up to step 4.

The Body Graph

Definition Types, Modes & BridgesDefinition

The body graph is the core of a Human Design chart. How its basic mechanics work is the foundation of your entire knowledge of Human Design. Make it a strong foundation!

You’ll learn that centers are either defined or undefined and combine into five variations of definition types. This, together with the prime mechanic of the two modes, doing and waiting, give a broad overview of any chart.

Centers, Conditioning & Consciousness

Building a solid foundation.

The Centers

At the very core of your understanding of a Human Design chart is the central image, the body graph with its centers. A center is either colored or white, defined or undefined, conditioning or conditioned. How centers connect with each other or not determines whether you are designed to do or designed to wait.

These are not abstract concepts, but intrinsic parts of all our lives. You may not be aware of it, but deep down you know very well how your centers operate. They've been with you your entire life. It's just that you couldn't see the mechanics and didn't have an appropriate language, no tool to reflect and decode the intricacies.

Human Design is that tool and this class lays the proper foundation to use it effectively and beneficially by introducing you to the nine centers in such a way that you will actually recognize how you experience them in your life.

• learn to identify the basic strengths and vulnerabilities in a chart by understanding how the centers operate
• see where conditioning likely causes defenses and malfunctions
• discover that consciousness determines how agitations experienced through conditioning are handled

Beginners will benefit especially from this information as it builds a crucial foundation from which to safely explore all the shiny other miracles of the Human Design System. This class is so very powerful that forever more you will be able to look at any chart and understand the underlying forces in a person’s life.

The underlying synthesis elements for the Centers are the Tree of Life of the Kabbalah and the Hindu Chakras. While not necessary to understand Human Design, to add depth and broaden your interpretative basis to recognize the energetics of the centers, you could consider adding the two short classes on the Tree of Life and the Chakras corresponding with chapter 10 of Human Design Revealed.

Gates in Centers

Portals of exchange

CCC class live - Human Design that makes senseCenters exchange information and energy through the channels connecting them. The gates in the centers on either side of a channel are the valves controlling this exchange. Each gate is associated with a hexagram of the I Ching, which means that each channel has the particular flavor of the combination and interaction of two specific hexagrams, which in turn nuances the centers.

A fascinating and instructive introduction to the hexagrams as they are associated to centers and channels. The logical next step after the Centers, Conditioning & Consciousness class to add another dimension to your understanding of the centers.

The PlanetsPlanets

The archetypes and myths, their flavor and conditioning influence

The next step in your systematic education in Zen Human Design is the understanding of the planetary archetypes, who are the forces activating the gates.

While this material is at the advanced level for students of Human Design, it's also an excellent primer in basic astrology.

Each of these eight lessons is given by a different guest teacher, all gifted astrologers and/or Human Design practitioners.

Chiron in Human Design

Chiron is a mix between an asteroid and a comet, orbiting the Sun between Saturn and Uranus. It's named after a centaur of Greek mythology, a cross between a horse and a human, the result of a one night stand the god Chronos (Saturn) had with a nymph. Rejected by his mother, Chiron was adopted by Apollo who schooled him well. Chiron grew to be a wise healer and teacher, a bridge between humans and gods. As an astrological archetype, Chiron is said to embody healing, transformation, service, spiritual growth and the process of becoming aware.

Although Chiron doesn't activate gates in a Human Design chart, many Human Design practitioners, along with astrologers, find meaning in the natal position of Chiron and its transits along a life trajectory, particularly its return at about 50.7 years of age.

Conditioning: The Planets

The significance of the ever ongoing program

Your birth chart is just a snapshot of that particular moment, your basic setup, the blueprint of how life is meeting you and what tools you have to respond. Planetary transits change your design continuously throughout your life. You have no choice but to understand and accept.

• You are changing
• Relationships shift
• People you thought you knew act differently
• Whole societies change

You need to understand the power of planetary conditioning to be able to correctly assess an individual or composite chart at any point in time. This class helps you to apply the lessons of the planetary archetypes from step 5 to the dynamics of real life. With many practical examples.

How to use the Pocket Ephemeris

A Simple Guide To Understanding Planetary Transits

Knowing how to reference planetary transits is a very important tool for you to understand how everything constantly changes. All these influences can be read in an ephemeris, a table of planetary positions through time.

This lesson enables you to locate important conditioning gates for yourself, how to find them on the astrological wheel and when to expect their bi-annual transit of the Sun and Earth and other conditioning forces. This lesson uses the example of Zen Human Design's 2011 Pocket Ephemeris, but works just fine with any other edition.

Family Dynamics

Chart constellations resulting in pathology

Everyone knows the one or the other of those family relations that seem cooked up in hell, whether that's between siblings, in-laws, or parents and child. While we can pick our friends, we can't pick our family members and so it is helpful to have such a splendid tool as Human Design to understand what's going on.

In this class, guest Barbara U. Jones, Ph.D., a long-time student of Zeno's, shares charts and experiences from her practice as a Life Coach and discusses with Zeno where the pathologies can be seen in the body graphs. This is a very revealing relationship study.

Astrology Primer

One of the four elements synthesized in Human Design

When reading a Human Design chart, it is helpful to remember that a hexagram/gate is activated by a planetary body in a section of the zodiac and that the astrological meaning of this is based on thousands of years of observation and experience.

This class shows you the basic mechanisms of astrology and enables you to keep its meanings in mind when reading a Human Design chart.

You will find that you always know so much more when you remember that a hexagram is in an astrological sign and that its opposition and squares are built-in clues to what it means and how it impacts a person.

While this is an advanced class in relation to Human Design, it's a perfect introduction to astrology for anyone.
