  • May 2025 Sun/Earth Transits: Your Inner Compass & Where It's Pointing
    Apr 29 2025
    Hey there! In this episode of Human Design Hive, we're diving into the May transits and what they mean for all of us energetically. If you've ever wondered how the monthly solar gates affect your energy and direction, you're in the right place! Human Design reveals how these cosmic energies create themes that influence everyone on the planet, and today we're breaking it all down.## In this episode, you'll discover:- How May kicks off the Quarter of Civilization - bringing your unique ideas into form- Why trusting your inner direction is the theme of early May (and how to stop controlling everything!)- The power of expressing your unique insights when the throat center activates- How to recognize when you're dimming your light to fit in (and what to do about it)- Ways to focus your natural skills and talents as we close out the month## Key Concepts We Explored:We start May in the Quarter of Civilization - where purpose is fulfilled through form, and where our carefully initiated concepts get concretized. This quarter activates all the gates of the throat center!(11:11) Gates 2 & 1: Direction & Self-Expression (May 3-8) These G center gates remind us to follow our inner compass rather than external expectations. When balanced in these energies, you naturally trust your path and allow the right resources to flow toward you. No need to control everything!(29:09) Gates 23 & 43: Assimilation & Insight (May 9-13) These individual circuit gates help you translate complex, novel ideas into language others can understand. It's about giving voice to your unique insights in ways that connect with people - especially when asked!(45:10) Gates 8 & 14: Contribution & Power Skills (May 14-19) This configuration encourages authentic self-expression and using your natural resources to make meaningful contributions. When you're true to yourself, you naturally empower others too.(53:35) Gates 20 & 34: Awareness & Power (May 20-25) The channel of charisma brings raw sacral power into expression through the throat. It's about being fully present in the NOW and following what calls to you in each moment.(01:10:08 ) Gates 16 & 9: Skills & Focus (May 26-31) We close the month with energy supporting enthusiasm for mastery and focused attention. This is perfect timing for honing skills you want to share with the world.(01:20:24)The Left Angle Cross of Incarnation 24/44, 13/7Connect With Us:Don't forget our free monthly community calls on the fourth Wednesday of every month!

  • The 5/1 Profile: Magnetism, Boundaries, and the Pressure to Be the Answer
    Apr 23 2025

    In this episode of Human Design Hive, we're diving deep into the intriguing, and sometimes misunderstood, profiles in Human Design: the 5/1.

    If you’ve ever been told you’re a little mysterious, or constantly giving off “fix my life” vibes to others… you might just be a 5/1. Or you love one. Either way, you’re in the right place.

    Today we shed light on why this profile has a magnetic pull, and why that magnetism can sometimes burn if you’re not careful.

    In this episode, you’ll hear us explore:

    - Why the 5/1 profile feels both seen and unseen at the same time

    - What it really means to be a “stranger of consequence” (and no, it’s not just a dramatic label.

    - How the 5/1’s deep dive into knowledge becomes a superpower, or a safety blanket

    - What kind of boundaries help 5/1s stay empowered, not projected on

    - How Type and Profile play together—5/1 Generators, MG's, Projectors, Manifestors, and Reflectors all get a shoutout

    We also bring in a few famous charts to explore how this profile energy plays out in real life. Spoiler alert: they’ve all experienced a lot of projection, and we unpack why.

    Timestmaps:

    00:00 Welcome

    01:01:14 ICX of the Week

    01:05:58

    01:06:15 Our next Community call!

    What we want you to remember:

    1. Just because someone sees something in you doesn’t mean you owe it to them.

    2. 5/1s are here to offer real solutions, but only when the timing and people are right.

    3. Boundaries and self-trust aren’t optional here, they’re your magic shield.

    If this episode hits home (especially if you’re a 5/1 or love one), be sure to check out our earlier episodes on the individual profile lines, and join us next time when we chat all things 6/2 (aka Hali’s personal fave).

    Thanks for listening! 💛

  • The 1/3 Profile: Turning Skepticism Into Wisdom
    Apr 15 2025

    In this episode of the Human Design Hive Podcast, Hali and I are starting a Human Design Profile series, starting with the 1/3, the Investigator/Martyr. (Great name, right?) We are exploring the characteristics and nuances of the 'Investigator' Line 1 and the 'Martyr' Line 3, explaining how this profile is a blend of deep research and hands-on experimentation.

    What We Cover:

    - What makes the One-Three Profile unique and how it shows up in the world

    - Why One-Threes are natural researchers and experimenters

    - How this profile expresses differently across the 5 Types

    - Real-life examples of famous One-Threes (including Beyoncé!)

    Key Takeaway:

    1/3's are ultimately their own authority on what works for them. They might research something extensively, but they'll still need to try it out for themselves before fully committing.

    This week's Incarnation Cross highlighted:

    Left Angle Cross of Alignment 2.

  • Understanding the Fluidity of Your Defined Gates
    Apr 8 2025

    In this episode of Human Design Hive, Dana and Hali dive into a refreshing perspective on defined gates in your Human Design chart. If you've ever felt boxed in by gate descriptions or wondered why your experience doesn't match what you've read about your gates, you're in the right place!

    What You'll Discover:

    - Why your defined gates represent consistent potential rather than fixed traits

    - How conditioning, environment, and experiences affect how your gates express

    - The difference between genotype (potential) and phenotype (expression) in both physical DNA and energetic DNA

    - Real-life examples of how the same gate can express differently between people

    Defined gates are like radio stations that are always broadcasting, but how you tune into that frequency can vary. Just like physical DNA doesn't always express the same way in everyone who carries it, your energetic DNA (Human Design) has fluidity in how it manifests.

    The conversation includes examples of how gates like Gate 5 (Rhythm), Gate 51 (Shock), and Gate 64 (Abstraction) can express differently based on your unique circumstances and awareness.

    Key Takeaways:

    1. Your defined gates represent consistent access to certain energies, not a fixed expression

    2. How these energies manifest depends on your type, strategy, authority, and lived experiences

    3. There's no "right way" to express a gate—your expression is uniquely yours

    Your Next Steps:

    If you'd like to explore your own gates more deeply, join the upcoming community call on Wednesday, April23rd or book a one-on-one session with Dana to uncover what might be getting in your way of fully embodying your design.

    Incarnation Cross of the Week:

    The Right Angle Cross of Service 3 (Gates 18, 17, 52, 58)

  • Stop Trying to Be Someone Else! Spotting Not-Self Behaviors in Human Design
    Mar 25 2025

    In this episode of Human Design Hive, we're diving deep into something that doesn't always get the spotlight but is actually where the true transformation happens - recognizing your not-self behaviors and the deconditioning process. If you've ever wondered why you keep falling into the same frustrating patterns or feeling disconnected from who you really are, you're in the right place!

    In this episode, you'll discover:

    - The specific not-self themes for each Human Design type and how to recognize when you're operating from conditioning

    - Why deconditioning is like cleaning out your energetic closet (and yes, it can feel just as uncomfortable!)

    - Practical ways to start identifying and releasing patterns that aren't truly YOU

    - How to navigate the journey with curiosity instead of judgment

    Key Points Covered:

    [00:08:00] Understanding the Not-Self

    [00:10:52] Where Conditioning Comes From

    [00:21:45] Not-Self by Type

    [00:54:37]Steps Toward Deconditioning

    [01:11:00] Practical Steps Forward

    [01:19:00] Incarnation Cross of the Week

    Remember, deconditioning isn't about judging your past behaviors or becoming perfect - it's about giving yourself permission to be who you truly are! The more you express your authentic design, the more you benefit EVERYONE around you.

  • Decision Fatigue- How Your Human Design Authority Simplifies Life's Choices
    Mar 18 2025
    Hey there! In this episode of Human Design Hive, we're talking about decision fatigue and how your Human Design authority can help you break free from it. If you've ever felt completely drained by the countless choices you face each day or found yourself making impulsive decisions just to "get it over with," you're in the right place. Human Design reveals your unique decision-making system that's been with you all along, we're just going to help you remember how to use it.In this episode, you'll discover:- How we make an astounding 35,000 decisions daily (and why that exhausts us)- The difference between using your mind vs. your authority for decisions- How each authority type experiences decision fatigue differently- Practical experiments to strengthen your connection to your authorityKey Points Covered:The Reality of Decision Fatigue [01:44] We explore how making countless decisions each day, from what to wear to what to watch on Netflix, creates a mental and emotional drain that becomes increasingly difficult to manage. Understanding this fatigue helps explain why we sometimes make impulsive choices or avoid decisions altogether.The Mind vs. Authority Dilemma [05:59] We discuss how we've been conditioned to approach every decision through our mind, which disconnects us from our natural wisdom. While our mental capacity got us to the top of the food chain, over-relying on it actually makes decision-making harder, not easier.Symptoms of Decision Fatigue [09:00] Four main symptoms emerge when we're in decision fatigue:Procrastination (putting off decisions)Analysis paralysis (overthinking to the point of indecision)Impulsivity (making rash decisions for quick relief)Avoidance (never making the decision at all)Understanding Your Authority [11:55] We break down the different authorities in Human Design and how each one offers a specific way to make decisions:Sacral Authority [20:00]What it feels like: A visceral yes/no response in the bodySplenic Authority [25:12]What it feels like: An intuitive knowing that speaks onceEmotional Authority [31:12]What it feels like: Clarity that comes with time through emotional wavesEgo/Will Authority [37:00]What it feels like: Following what your heart truly wantsSelf-Projected & Mental Authority [41:00]What it feels like: Speaking your truth and hearing resonanceReflector Authority [45:06]What it feels like: Clarity that comes through a lunar cycleLearning to Trust Your Authority [53:00] I share a personal story about following my authority when meeting my husband, demonstrating how our authority often leads us correctly even before we understand it.Practical Experiments [59:00]Incarnation Cross of the Week [01:09:00] The Left Angle Cross of Healing (Gates 25, 46, 58, 52)YJoin our monthly community call on Monday, March 26th at 7pm where we'll continue this conversation.

  • 147- Breaking Free from the Comparison Trap with Human Design
    Mar 11 2025

    Hey there! In this episode of Human Design Hive, we’re diving into something that we all face at one point or another—comparison. Whether it’s feeling behind in life, questioning your progress, or measuring yourself against someone else’s timeline, we’ve all been there. Today, we’re talking about how to break free from the comparison trap using your Human Design.

    Episode Overview: In this episode, you'll discover:

    How comparisonitis sneaks into your life and why it feels so pervasive.

    The ways different Human Design types can experience this pressure—Generators, Projectors, Manifestors, and Reflectors.

    Real-life strategies for breaking free from the comparison cycle and trusting your unique path.

    Key Points Covered:

    [00:00] Opening ContextWe start by chatting about how we get caught in comparison, whether it’s about looks, achievements, or where we “should” be in life.

    [06:00] Core Concepts

    The idea of comparisonitis—a human instinct to measure our success against others.

    How societal expectations feed into this and why Human Design can help us see that our paths are not meant to be the same.

    [15:00] Real-Life Applications

    If you’re a Generator or Manifesting Generator, how to resist the pressure to follow others’ timelines.

    For Projectors, it’s about waiting for recognition instead of forcing your way into opportunities.

    Manifestors, remember—you don’t need permission to act; trust your urge.

    Reflectors, give yourself the space and time to make decisions.

    [25:00] Deep Dive Moments

    A conversation about timing and how trusting your energy flow is key to navigating comparison—why timing is everything in Human Design.

    Hali and I reflect on the challenges of feeling behind, especially in a world that emphasizes the hustle.Remember, you're not behind, and you’re not meant to follow someone else’s timeline. By trusting your unique design and honoring your energy, you’ll begin to see that you're exactly where you're supposed to be. Let go of comparison and embrace the beauty of your own journey.Join the HDH podcast over on Substack!
