Summary
The Owner's Manual for Your Life！
Founded in the twentieth century by the late spiritual teacher Ra Uru Hu， Human Design is often called the "new Astrology，" and the "intersection of science and spirituality。" Your Human Design chart is formulated by taking your birth date， time， and location and extrapolating specific personality traits and life paths from this convergence。 A Human Design chart offers an astonishingly accurate guide to your personality， as well as direction and counsel on how each individual can deal with challenges in their life。
Previously， Human Design charts have been notoriously difficult to interpret and decipher， usually taking a dedicated expert to read and translate them into plain English。 At least， that used to be the case--until now。
In "Understanding Human Design: The Science of Discovering Who You Really Are，" author Karen Curry walks you through the sometimes complex and intimidating Human Design chart with simple， direct language。 You will learn about each level of Human Design， from the most basic elements of the chart to the deeper， more nuanced insights Human Design offers， all in an approachable and interesting way。 Understand how every line， intersection， and symbol correlates to a personality trait that can directly affect your life with an experienced guide by your side。
Your personal Human Design Chart can reveal your strengths， your weaknesses， and perhaps most importantly， your potential。 Prepare for repetitive difficulties that you might encounter throughout your life， and embrace the opportunity to grow as you understand your personal Human Design strategy。 With author Karen Curry's assistance and knowledge， you have a path to overcome these difficulties simply by following the directions set out in your Human Design chart， the "owner's manual" to your life。

I didn't read the whole book but just skimmed to the section that was most relevant for me。 Here are my favorite passages from the 'Projector' section: When you understand yourself， you can make choices about your life that are in alignment with your true nature。 it—if we're all different， a one-size-fits-all approach to creating a happy， successful life doesn't make sense。 Projectors who do not wait will not experience success。 They do not have the energetic configuration to just go do things a I didn't read the whole book but just skimmed to the section that was most relevant for me。 Here are my favorite passages from the 'Projector' section: When you understand yourself， you can make choices about your life that are in alignment with your true nature。 it—if we're all different， a one-size-fits-all approach to creating a happy， successful life doesn't make sense。 Projectors who do not wait will not experience success。 They do not have the energetic configuration to just go do things and “make things happen，” as many will tell them。 A Projector who waits to be asked， recognized， or invited has an enormous amount of wisdom to share with the world。 They can feel the energy of others in a deep way。 A Projector living his strategy is magnetic and attractive。 People won't be able to stop recognizing and inviting the patient Projector。 It is planetary geometry。 A Projector， by nature， will have a slower journey。 But it is their own journey， and following their own path will give them sustainable energy and the recognition that will make their soul sing。 Projectors are here to be wise about others。 But their insight about other people sometimes leaves them blind to themselves and their own needs。 They do not have the same capacity to know themselves the way a Generator does。 Consequently， they need help seeing when they are overdoing it。 Projectors may find that they need to nap during the day。 They also need to rest before they can fall asleep。 Projectors must not initiate。 They truly need others to help them gain access to opportunities and energy。 A Projector is not weak or lazy if they don't initiate action; they simply need the energy of others to help them get started。 If you have second line energy， you experience a kind of energy vortex that draws others to you if you hide yourself too well。 When you hide away， people will find you and recognize you。 It is the perfect energy for Generators and Projectors。 As a hermit， the ideal relationship is with a partner who needs as much alone time as you and doesn't take your need for solitude personally。 A quiet evening with both of you reading different books on the couch might feel like the perfect date night。 In its highest expression， you wait to be called out into the right experiences and you take time to regenerate and renew yourself。 There can be a certain platonic quality to your energy， which can be frustrating sometimes because your potential partners don't always realize that you are romantically interested。 They think you're just good friends。 。。。more

Wow， inhaled that in a day！ So beautifully explained and laid out in an easy to understand way。

3-4 stars。 It’s a great BASIC introduction but lacks the depth that I was looking for。 That being said， she breaks down a complicated system in a cohesive and easy to follow way。

I have known about Human Design for a couple of decades now， and bought this Kindle book years ago and just got around to reading it thoroughly。 It's unfortunate this is no longer available as I really got a lot out of this book。 True， you can find bits and pieces all over the internet about this system， but I did feel like this book is a comprehensive beginner overview that is well done。 I hope the author/publisher considers putting back "in print" at some point， and it would be awesome to see I have known about Human Design for a couple of decades now， and bought this Kindle book years ago and just got around to reading it thoroughly。 It's unfortunate this is no longer available as I really got a lot out of this book。 True， you can find bits and pieces all over the internet about this system， but I did feel like this book is a comprehensive beginner overview that is well done。 I hope the author/publisher considers putting back "in print" at some point， and it would be awesome to see future books on how to do this technique with relationships and with what astrology would call "transits。" 。。。more

It’s hard to find much about Human Design， because it’s sich a new thing and not popular。The book in general isn’t bad， it gives a good basic introduction。 But it could go more in-depth。 I would have rated it 3 stars， BUT what really makes me mad and why I’m rating it 1 star is the fact that I bought her shorter introduction ebook about Human Design first。 I wasn’t that thrilled about it， it was very very basic for ~5€。Then I bought this book in hope of learning something more in-depth about it It’s hard to find much about Human Design， because it’s sich a new thing and not popular。The book in general isn’t bad， it gives a good basic introduction。 But it could go more in-depth。 I would have rated it 3 stars， BUT what really makes me mad and why I’m rating it 1 star is the fact that I bought her shorter introduction ebook about Human Design first。 I wasn’t that thrilled about it， it was very very basic for ~5€。Then I bought this book in hope of learning something more in-depth about it and I wanted to give her another chance， but nope。 There are only a few more topics AND she basically uses her whole shorter ebook in this book here 。。。 I didn’t compare everything and it’s months since I read both， but some parts were the same， word for word！ I don’t know if she wrote the book first and picked the pages out for the ebook or if she wrote the ebook first and just put it for convenience into this book？ 。。。I wish there would have been a note for the ebook that it’s taken out of the book or something。 There was no indication whatsoever。 From the descriptions it makes the appearance that they’re both totally different， which they’re not。 。。。more

It’s a great book because it was the first time I was studying Human design after hearing about it （I’ve been studying astrology before this ） and I feel like I have a pretty good understanding for a beginner。 The only thing is that it’s pretty labor intensive- you have to do a bunch of exercises to get the full benefits of the book。 I still haven’t done most of these so I have some work to do。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 Someone I respect， who clearly gets a lot from the ideas， recommended this book to me。 But I'm having a hard time seeing why。 I've taken long walks on Alternate Alley before I became a full time fiction writer。 （And even while I was thinking about being one。）。 I've been a therapist and--as a a side note--became certified to teach the Enneagram。 （Another long story with cautionary notes。） I've read The Severn Ray series by Alice Bailey。 I throw the I Ching。 I used to be a psychic reader。 I've stu Someone I respect， who clearly gets a lot from the ideas， recommended this book to me。 But I'm having a hard time seeing why。 I've taken long walks on Alternate Alley before I became a full time fiction writer。 （And even while I was thinking about being one。）。 I've been a therapist and--as a a side note--became certified to teach the Enneagram。 （Another long story with cautionary notes。） I've read The Severn Ray series by Alice Bailey。 I throw the I Ching。 I used to be a psychic reader。 I've studied the Tarot。 So I have a lot of tolerance and patience for sifting through material to look for things that I can relate to。 Having said this， I find Understanding Human Design to be one of the least well-written and least well-organized of the many such books I've read。 Unlike Helen Palmer's first Enneagram book， it doesn't leave the reader much room to meditate on the ideas or fill in the blanks。 Unlike the Seven Ray series， by Alice Bailey， it doesn't try to be close to the real or imagined source （Bailey was supposedly channeling a Tibetan master）--a technique that gives the reader room to believe or not to believe。 Instead， this is a book of a believer who doesn't know how to talk to the uninformed （ like Palmer） or manifest the source of the cauldron （like Bailey。） And， in the tradition of so many ardent believers， she tends to preach。 The book begs for an index-or at least （as in Palmer's first book） clear charts。 The best part was finding out that me and Bob Dylan have a lot in common。 。。。more

Great for seeing hidden talentsYes this is woo-woo stuff。 But for me it has proven more insightful than the wonderlic or the DISC for hiring， which I also use。 It is strangely accurate。 Loved the insights human design brings into understanding others and myself。 It has helped me get some solid hires into my business and to understand my challenging relationships better and others’ individuality better。

Human Design is for those who are into woo-woo。 I’m only a beginner and just heard about Human Design a couple weeks ago。 I got curious。 When I first got my chart， I could tell this was going to get complicated quickly， but Karen Curry makes it very easy to understand for newbies。 While I still need to pull the pieces together （and trust me， there are MANY pieces！）， it’s eerie accurate。 Then again maybe it’s confirmation bias。 However， I think it’s a helpful lens to look at things。

Този наръчник съвсем не е единственият， море от информация е。 Исках да започна отнякъде。 Разчете мен и семейството ми като отворена книга。 Намирам системата за революционна и работеща。 Тепърва ще препрочитам книгата пак и пак， за да опозная по-обстойно дизайна си。 Още повече се вълнувам， че ще мога да приложа прочетеното върху децата си。

Awesome book！ I love personality related literature and this was superb。 All you need to have a chart is your birth date and time of birth and you can generate a free chart online。 There are also some youtube videos that explain the types which are worth checking out。 What I liked about this book was the great number of factors and traits/characteristics/tendencies that make up the "human design。" Whereas other methods are a bit more simplistic （you are one of 12 signs or one of 16 types） this b Awesome book！ I love personality related literature and this was superb。 All you need to have a chart is your birth date and time of birth and you can generate a free chart online。 There are also some youtube videos that explain the types which are worth checking out。 What I liked about this book was the great number of factors and traits/characteristics/tendencies that make up the "human design。" Whereas other methods are a bit more simplistic （you are one of 12 signs or one of 16 types） this book highlighted dozens and dozens of factors that go into someone's personality and highlighted the interactions between these traits。 This book is kind of a user manual for reading the diagram generated on the website and I personally thought it was super fun。 Would recommend to identity-searchers。 。。。more

I had a feeling。。。There was more to me than what I had been told。 I am a manifesting generator with boundless energy and a love for my physical being that goes beyond what those around me， those I grew up with and was nurtured by， ever understood about me。 With this new awareness， I feel completely empowered and capable of all that I always dreamed of being， doing and having。

Very accessible and actionable information。 I've had my chart done and spoken with a professional， but I found Human Design to be more clear and relatable in language and applicability。 Now the concept of living an authentic life is less amorphous！ I loved the structure of the book and felt the author did a great job of explaining and encouraging。 One of my new favs！ Very accessible and actionable information。 I've had my chart done and spoken with a professional， but I found Human Design to be more clear and relatable in language and applicability。 Now the concept of living an authentic life is less amorphous！ I loved the structure of the book and felt the author did a great job of explaining and encouraging。 One of my new favs！ 。。。more

A thorough introduction to Human DesignI'm currently studying Human Design in order to understand myself and help others overcome obstacles in their lives。 I came to Human Design after 40 years of I Ching study。 I like Karen Curry's approach to the field。 Her explanations are clear， simple， yet thorough。 I highly recommend this book as a solid introduction to Human Design！ A thorough introduction to Human DesignI'm currently studying Human Design in order to understand myself and help others overcome obstacles in their lives。 I came to Human Design after 40 years of I Ching study。 I like Karen Curry's approach to the field。 Her explanations are clear， simple， yet thorough。 I highly recommend this book as a solid introduction to Human Design！ 。。。more

Karen writes about Human Design in a clear way。 It is one of my favorite Human Design books。 The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because there is no index which would make it a better resource book。 I follow Karen online and her weekly reports which are so helpful。 Her depth of knowledge of Human Design is the best。

I've been an astrology student for years and was very pleased to find this new and innovative tool that really gives us a guide as to who we truly are。 It's a perfect intro into a subject that I didn't know existed until I read this book。 It's well written and in terms that anyone can grasp。 Overall a great read and a must for people who are really interested in learning about what makes both themselves and others tick。 I've been an astrology student for years and was very pleased to find this new and innovative tool that really gives us a guide as to who we truly are。 It's a perfect intro into a subject that I didn't know existed until I read this book。 It's well written and in terms that anyone can grasp。 Overall a great read and a must for people who are really interested in learning about what makes both themselves and others tick。 。。。more

The charts are interesting and informative- but with no way to do them yourself without a computer program， makes it difficult to do for others to pass along interesting information。
