Thank you profoundly for sharing your work in class. It is both special and important to hear your voices and how your experiences illustrate Human Design, adding depth and variety to Human Design study and understanding. If you did not have a chance to share your work in this week’s class, I encourage you to share in Class 3, next week. We truly want to hear from each person present, although the decision to share is always your individual decision.

This week, we will be writing about the Head, Ajna and G-Centers. These are very challenging topics because they reveal the energetics of how the Design process works… as your ideals are handed over first to the Design Consciousness in the Ajna, and then dropped into the G-Center to become real-life events, which your personal body-intelligence needs to master and live.

As you write about your experience relative to each Center, you reveal how this Center is working in real-life terms, not in theoretical terms. When you are writing, the information just pours out of you onto the page. When you go back, reread and reflect on what you have said, you begin to see how you’ve revealed the working of this center in your own Design in detail.The more you get down to the story, with details and genuine feeling, the more you reveal. These revelations give voice to your Centers and flesh out details for the nuances of how they behave, process information, and enter the transformational process of living.

We have an abundance of theories in Human Design, and it is often said that we have a shortage of facts—real world facts. As we expand the voices of Human Design, it is exactly your examples that communicate what the centers feel like for living human beings.

Every time you share your experience in class, you are adding to the lexicon of Human Design knowledge. As you go along writing, your focus will become ever sharper. You will delve more deeply into both your centers and your story. Whether your center is defined or undefined, which channels and/or activations are involved get revealed in extremely moving ways. Please keep up the good work, and you will see more and more in your own work as we go along.

The ten-minute limit to our wild-mind-writing exercise is extremely important. Firstly, it is important because if you dive in and bypass the intellectual inner critic and make direct contact with your deep body-mind, your experience becomes more available to you and to others. The magic happens reliably with the timed writing exercise, which is the key to the process.

The timed exercise limit is important to our class as well. We have set the timed exercise at 10 minutes for a specific reason. When you write for 10 minutes, it gives us your very real, raw and deep mind experience. In addition, unless you are the world’s fastest speed typist, you can read what you write in your exercise in approximately 2 minutes and 3 at the most. This makes your contributions available in a crisp and direct way that also leaves time for everyone to participate equally.

When you hear experiences spoken, it goes in very deeply. The more that you transition from intellect to the sharing of your life-story in detail, the more powerful and impactful your contribution to class will become, with an extraordinarily important value for Human Design teaching as well. It all hinges on your sharing your unedited and spontaneous writing of a timed writing session in our classes. This process will deepen class by class.

I am looking forward to hearing your work in ways that are beyond description. They could only come from you and are as unique as you are, yet they fit into the mosaic of Human Design in elegant ways we will all come to appreciate more and more.

As always, your wild-mind-writing can start from anywhere. This week it can start from the weird and wonderful, yet mysterious experiences of deja vu’s, to uncanny synchronicities and dreams that come true. It can be somewhat spooky but deep and intriguing, or you can explore the depth of your relationship with nature, your relationships and the desire to reconcile difficult communications with family members or past incidences, or even current negotiations with a desire for more effective collaboration. Finally, you may want to write about a few moments with your G-Center in meditation, or the way that it involves you in the wild adventure of living, with all the risks involved, while it stays as a stable and indestructible center of your being. I know, some of these topics can get heavy. Just dive in and write. Give it a passionate 10 minutes, or a series of 10 minute writes. However, keep in mind, that every time you go into deep concentration, it is equally important to break this concentration and come back to the surface, to notice the colors, objects or sounds around you, in your room or out your window.

Let’s keep in mind that we are studying Human Design from the very beginning as though we are all Living Your Design students. That is an important exercise to recover our beginner’s mind. We begin just as Ra Uru Hu did, as the Voice began the transmission.

Importantly, there are numerous Living Your Design Students in our class, which is aimed primarily for them; this is a Living Your Design curriculum and not an advanced curriculum. I ask that you support the process of beginners throughout. It is always tempting to reassure people with the intellect, but I ask you to support each other’s process instead.
