The Spiral of Everything

Six lines, six dimensions. Notice where you are drawn. That is information.
1GroundSelf
Fear to security
From the inherited story to what is true.
Read more
The Spiral · First Turn

It starts here, alone, underneath everything. Before you can change a single thing, you need ground you can actually stand on. The first line investigates. It digs down to the foundation and asks what is real here, underneath what I was handed. Safety comes before transformation. You cannot decondition from a body that feels under threat. So the work of this line is patient. You build enough security inside yourself that the truth becomes touchable.

In the dimension of Self

This is the return to your own authority as the ground you stand on. Not the authority you inherited. Not the voice you were trained to obey. The one that lives in your body and moves through your strategy. The first line in Self is you, coming home to what is true about you, and letting that be the floor you build the rest of your life on.

You are allowed to begin from the bottom. That is where ground is.
2EmbodimentRelationship
Provocation to brilliance
From the fear of provocation to natural brilliance.
Read more
The Spiral · Second Turn

The second line is natural. It carries a gift it never studied for, a talent that was simply always there, so ordinary to the one who holds it that they often cannot see it. What the second line guards against is provocation, being called out, put on the spot, seen before it feels ready. The movement is from that fear of provocation into natural brilliance. You stop bracing. You let the gift be what it already is, in plain view, without performing it and without hiding it.

In the dimension of Relationship

You are seen. Another person calls the gift out of you and names the thing you could not name in yourself. It happens in the field between two people, in the warmth of being witnessed. The second line in Relationship is where you are recognized into your own nature, where someone reflects back the talent you were too close to notice.

The wish to be left alone and the longing to be seen. Both are true.
3ExperimentFamily
Shame to play
From shame to play.
Read more
The Spiral · Third Turn

Now you test it. The third line takes no one's word for anything. It bumps into life, tries the thing, breaks the bond, and learns what does not work by living straight through it. This is learning by experiment. The old ache underneath it is shame, the sense that the failures mean something is wrong with you. The movement is out of that shame and into play. The so-called mistakes become experiments. Nothing here is wasted.

In the dimension of Family

Family is the first place any of us experiment with bonding. It is where connections are made and broken, tested and repaired, where we learn what holds and what does not. The third line in Family is where you discover, through trial, which bonds are genuinely yours to keep and which inherited patterns you are finally ready to set down.

You survive the breaking. Then it becomes play.
4CommuningCommunity
Rejection to alignment
From earning belonging to trusting resonance.
Read more
The Spiral · Fourth Turn

The fourth line belongs. It lives in relationship, in the network, in the warmth of being held by its people. The deconditioning here is quiet and easy to miss; it starts with an open heart. It moves from earning belonging, performing to stay inside the circle, into trusting resonance. You stay, heart open. And when someone turns away, it slowly stops feeling so personal. Rejection becomes information. It is alignment doing its patient work, showing you where you belong through resonance or dissonance with the world around you.

In the dimension of Community

This is the home of the fourth line. Contribution, friendship, the field of the many holding the one. The fourth line in Community is where you practice belonging without abandoning yourself, where you learn that the people who are yours do not require a performance to stay. Where you are most resourceful to the people, and the people are most resourceful to you.

Rejection is alignment. Let it point you home.
5Heresy & LeadershipCollective
Guilt to leadership
From borrowed language to your own voice.
Read more
The Spiral · Fifth Turn

The fifth line carries projection. People see in it what they need to see, and the fifth line learns quickly that projection is information about where the most practical guidance lives; it is never personal. The deconditioning moves from living inside borrowed language, other people's expectations, the roles laid over you, into a voice that is your own. You become the heretic of yourself. You question the very framework that carried you this far. This is where you leave the raft for the shore. The map that got you across the water gets set down, and plain speech replaces the jargon.

In the dimension of Collective

The fifth line speaks to the many. Its home is the collective, the wider field it was born to serve. The movement runs along a spectrum, from the guilt of carrying everyone's projection and trying to be what they need, into the clean, grounded leadership of a voice that belongs to you.

Leave the raft for the shore.
6SovereigntySpirit
Aloof to allow
From knowing yourself to being the thing only you can be.
Read more
The Spiral · Sixth Turn

The sixth line begins inside life. It meets consequence directly and discovers what experience can teach.

Human Design describes 2027 as the beginning of the Solar Plexus mutation, a movement from emotional motor toward a new form of awareness. The sixth-line life has been practicing this movement across its entire arc. Emotional intensity ripens into discernment. Equanimity becomes the capacity to remain present within the wave and let clarity reveal itself in its own time.

Transmission happens through embodiment.

In the dimension of Spirit

Holding the whole hexagram consciously, the sixth line recognizes every line within the larger process. Its influence lives in its choices and the quality of its presence. A new earth takes form through lived frequency.

This is the WisdomKeeper, the one who has walked the arc and returned with spaciousness. The future evolves out loud through the life they live.

The sixth line returns to essence. Its home is Spirit, the widest turn of the Spiral. The movement runs from aloof, watching from the roof, held slightly apart, into allow, coming all the way down, letting itself be lived through. And then the sixth line folds back into the first line of the next dimension, and the whole Spiral turns again, higher.

Being. Come into the world as yourself.

Projector Only Zoom Space
Cheendana Martin · Line 1 · Ground
Thu, Fri & Sun · 2:00 – 3:30 · Online
The offering

I am offering a Projector only space during the designated hours mentioned. This is a space where we can connect online during the conference. It is a space to share ones experince with another projector while at the conference. We can talk, we can look at your chart, we can be quiet and just breath together. It all depends on who shows up and what is happening and what is needed.

Who it's for

Projectors only. I welcome you at whatever level of experience you embody.

About Cheendana

My Human Design reading in 2007 captured my attention with the awakening of what recognition truly felt like in my body. I felt so seen by my analyst who was a complete stranger. Ever since I have been a deep student of the Human Design System, now an Analyst and Teacher of LYD, ABC and RC. I am a deeply aligned with Human Design America with the classes we offer.

I have been working as a Massage Therapist since 1985. Thereafter, I studied craniosacral balancing, co-counselling, diet, herbs, Yoga, meditation, creative writing. I have a keen interest in providing a safe space where co-regulation of the nervous system and happen.
I have been working one on one and in small groups here at my home in Nova Scotia Canada for the last 40 years creating safe space for healing to happen assisting unique human beings to emerge. I enjoy the ongoing discoveries of what it is to be a unique human being.

For the High Desert Human Design Conference, I would like to offer a projector only space and offer my presence to whomever wishes
to join me during the time of the conference. I look forward to connecting. I know what it is like to be in the sea of many people and having a Projector only space can be such a safe haven and refuge.

Deconditioning as Grief Work
Jess Ryan & Steph Hanson · Line 1 · Ground
Fri · 2:00 – 5:15 · Maravilla A
The offering

This experiential workshop explores the grief process inherent - but often invisible - in deconditioning. Human Design often helps people recognize what is not-self, conditioned, inherited, or survival-based. But recognizing a pattern is not the same as being ready to release it. Many conditioned selves formed for important reasons: to belong, stay safe, be loved, avoid rejection, carry family roles, or survive environments that could not fully welcome and honor our true selves.

This offering also places personal deconditioning inside a larger collective transition. As Human Design points toward the movement from the Cross of Planning into the Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix, many people are sensing the grief of leaving an old era, even when they know they are ready to leave it. The structures, agreements, communities, roles, and identities that once organized belonging may no longer hold in the same way. That shift can bring relief, but also disorientation, tenderness, and grief.

In this workshop, participants will use Human Design as a compassionate map for exploring the identities, roles, strategies, and adaptations they have outgrown. Through gentle somatic practice, guided reflection, journaling, parts-informed inquiry, and optional partner or small-group sharing, participants will be invited to notice what they are ready to release, what still needs honoring, and what grief may arise when an old self no longer has to lead.

The workshop will include grounding practices, nervous system pacing, reflection on Type, Strategy, Authority, Centers, and conditioning, releasing rituals, and integration practices for returning to the body. This is not a therapeutic processing group, but a trauma-informed experiential space for engaging the emotional terrain of deconditioning with care, consent, and embodied awareness.

Who it's for

This offering is for participants who have at least a basic understanding of their Human Design chart, including Type, Strategy, and Authority. It is especially supportive for intermediate students, practitioners, therapists, coaches, facilitators, parents, healers, and space holders who are interested in the emotional, somatic, and relational dimensions of deconditioning.
Participants do not need to be Human Design professionals, but they should be willing to engage their own lived experiment with honesty and self-responsibility. This workshop is well-suited for people who understand that deconditioning is not only intellectual; it also moves through the body, family systems, attachment patterns, grief, identity, and belonging.

About Jess

Jess Ryan and Steph Hanson are the co-creators of Earth School, a practice space and community for navigating the lessons of being human on this earth plane using Human Design, nervous system regulation, embodiment, and energy work, to navigate the collective transition.

Steph Hanson is a licensed professional counselor, certified IFS practitioner, yoga educator, somatic guide, spiritual facilitator, and artist whose work centers embodiment, becoming, and nervous system repair and restoration Self-sovereignty.

Their shared facilitation is trauma-informed, relational, practical, and reverent of the body’s intelligence. They are especially interested in supporting practitioners and participants as they navigate deconditioning, grief, capacity, projection, and the selves we had to become in order to survive and belong.

Fear Detox: Full Immersion
Nameh Marsin · Line 3 · Experiment
Fri · 9:00 – 12:15 · Maravilla A
The offering

This Fear Detox workshop introduces participants to a framework for understanding and beginning to transmute fear — exploring fear's goals, how fear shows up, and what coping strategies and embodiment tools can bring loving care to the transmutation process. Drawing on Human Design, Parts Work (IFS), and embodiment tools, participants can practice noticing and naming fear's presence and begin exploring the internal parts that carry it. The session is structured around gentle curiosity and includes brief somatic practices for sitting with activated inner places rather than moving past them.

Deep container work — including the Window of Tolerance — extended practice with embodiment tools, and space to creatively art with their internal world.

A wise teacher once reminded me that a "hot potato" doesn't stay hot forever. And yet — so much of what we do with fear is just that: hot potato. Pass it, avoid it, cope it away. The work I'm lit up to engage with is about learning to hold it a little longer, and finding out what's actually inside.

Who it's for

All levels - as people wanting support in the deconditioning from fears. Beginners could hear the information generally. Advanced HD experiments will likely hear various energy center gate fear themes.

About Nameh

Nameh Marsin — Self-Awareness Coach.
At the heart of Nameh's work are embodiment tools, Human Design, and Parts work — anchored in the core belief that the fear, the resistance, the "who am I to live a bold life?" — that's not a stop sign. That tension is the doorway back to your own permission.

A 3/5 Emotional Generator on the Cross of Explanation with split definition, Nameh has been living and studying Human Design since 2021. With Gate 49 as her Personality Sun and her Kali Godhead signature, she lives and breathes personal revolution — and has been tracking her own across 50+ years.

Nameh's attention lives in life's tensions — witnessing the pee-pee dance of self-discovery, and supporting every seeker in writing their own permission slips for a kind, loving self-presence as life delights them along the way. She is also podcasting again, Dare to Listen - conversations about Rebirth, Self-Discovery and our connections with the unseen.

From Struggle to Strength
Moniste Gauger · Line 3 · Experiment
Fri · 9:00 – 12:15 · Benitez
The offering

This workshop explores how the 3rd‑line and 6th‑line themes in Human Design show up in everyday life and in the gates. We look at how people naturally learn through experimentation and trial‑and‑error (3rd line), and how those with 6th‑line energy begin life in a similar experimental phase before moving into perspective and, later, integration. These developmental patterns are universal and relevant to everyone, whether or not they have 3rd or 6th lines in their chart.

Participants will learn practical ways to recognize when they are in a learning phase that feels messy or experimental, when they are shifting into a more observational or reflective phase, and how to meet both with more self‑compassion. We will briefly reference the South Node and North Node as a general framework for growth, without going into technical detail. The focus is on understanding one’s own process and reducing self‑judgment.

The session includes short teaching segments, guided reflection, small‑group discussion, and a simple embodiment practice.

Who it's for

This workshop is for anyone who has their Human Design chart and wants to better understand how they learn, grow, and make sense of their experiences. A basic familiarity with Type, Authority, and Profile is helpful but not required.

Participants do not need to have 3rd lines or 6th lines in their profile or gates, and they do not need to be in a specific nodal theme (they can be pre or post Uranus opposition). The workshop is designed for beginners who know the basics of their chart and for intermediate students who want a clearer understanding of the 3rd‑line learning process and the 6th‑line developmental arc, including the early 3rd‑line phase that 6th‑line individuals experience.

Jupiter in Leo: Six Gates for Career Fulfillment
Marla Tseng · WisdomKeeper · Line 4 · Communing
Fri · 9:00 – 10:30 · Maravilla B
The offering

Jupiter in Leo invites us to consider where we’re ready for more creativity, self-expression, authenticity, and fulfillment in our work.

In this 90-minute experiential workshop, we’ll explore Jupiter in Leo through the archetypes of the six Human Design gates associated with Leo season. Together, they create a journey from looking back at the stories that have shaped our experience of work, to noticing where we want our voice to matter, listening inward, sensing our inner guidance, exploring possibilities, and considering what feels worth saying yes to next.

We’ll move through a blend of teaching, personal reflection, and small-group conversation. You’ll have space to pause with each part of the journey, notice what it brings up for you, and begin connecting these themes to your own experience of career direction and fulfillment.

You don’t need to have your next career move figured out, and no prior Human Design knowledge is required. Come with curiosity and something to write on.

You’ll leave with a deeper sense of what you may want more of in your work, where your reflections may be pointing you, and one meaningful next step to continue exploring.

Who it's for

This session is for anyone who is accomplished in their work but senses that something more wants to be expressed, explored, or experienced.

It may be especially resonant if you’re questioning what fulfills you, considering a career change, or simply feeling curious about what you want more of in your work.

No prior Human Design knowledge is required, but if you already know your design, you may find another layer of meaning in the reflections. The gates will be offered as archetypes and lenses for reflection, so you can participate whether or not you know your chart.

Today, she supports people who find themselves in that in-between space: knowing something needs to change, but not yet knowing exactly what comes next. Her work helps clients explore what they want more of, what direction feels worth exploring, and how to move forward without needing to have everything figured out first.

Marla brings together Human Design, astrology, NLP, and EFT in her work. She is an ICF-certified coach, a Certified Level 4 Quantum Human Design Specialist, a Certified Quantum Alignment System Practitioner, and a Certified Level III Human Design Guide through Erin Claire Jones.

Planets & Psyche: Sidereal Astrology
Marion Desio · WisdomKeeper · Line 5 · Heresy & Leadership
Fri · 2:00 – 3:30 · Benitez
The offering

A live, interactive exploration of Sidereal Astrology where the planets become characters with real human needs. Through chart theatre and guided embodiment, participants experience the difference between Tropical and Sidereal directly in the room. No prior astrology background required — just curiosity and a willingness to play.

Who it's for

This session is for beginner to intermediate students of Astrology or Human Design who want a more embodied understanding of planetary functions. It’s also ideal for Tropical practitioners curious about Sidereal principles. Participants only need basic familiarity with planets and charts — no technical background or Sidereal experience required.

About Marion

Marion is a Sidereal Astrologer and ceremonial guide who’s been studying Astrology since she was nine. She works with the astronomy‑aligned zodiac and teaches Sidereal Astrology as a straightforward way to understand how the planets show up as real human needs and drives.

As a 3/5 Projector, Marion teaches in an insight‑driven, down‑to‑earth style. She focuses on what the planets actually do — the needs they express, the patterns they create, and how people can recognize these themes without needing to switch systems or memorize anything complicated.

Marion is the co‑founder of the Aldebaran Sidereal Academy, which she has built with her husband, James A. Eshelman — a published Sidereal author and longtime host of the Solunars.com forum. James brings decades of scholarship; Marion shapes the curriculum, structure, and student experience.

Breathe the Bodygraph
Alison Dale · Line 6 · Sovereignty
Fri · 10:40 – 12:10 · Maravilla B
The offering

Breathe the Bodygraph is a guided conscious connected breathwork session that uses continuous breath to release stored tension and integrate the bodygraph somatically. Lying down, supported by a custom-built soundscape and verbal guidance, participants breathe in a connected pattern (no pause between inhale and exhale) for 45 minutes. As the breath builds, and the mind gives way to the body's wisdom, attention moves through the centers, giving each one space to be felt in the body rather than understood conceptually.

This is a physical practice that uses breath to shift the nervous system and create room for whatever wants to move.

Who it's for

No prior breathwork experience is required. Expect an intense physical and emotional experience: tingling, waves of emotional release, and altered states are common. The session includes integration time and sharing at the end.

About Alison

Alison Dale is an ecosomatic astrologer, Human Design guide, and breathwork practitioner based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where she runs Hearth & Spiral. Her work sits at the intersection of astrology, Human Design, Gene Keys, and somatic practice, with a focus on helping people move from understanding their own design intellectually to actually living from it.

Alison developed an internal framework she calls the compass: heart as center, with voice, eros, creativity, and receptivity as the four directions. Where charts and bodygraphs function as maps, showing where someone is, the compass is what lets a person navigate by feel, from the body, in real time.

She works with clients through readings, 1:1 coaching, and embodiment practices including conscious connected breathwork, drawing on years of personal practice and study across astrology, Human Design, the Celtic wheel of the year, and mythology
.
Alison is also a consultant on ELA Map, a locational astrology and human design app, and is currently developing a book exploring the descent and return cycle as a framework for navigating major life transitions.

She lives in Santa Fe with her partner, daughter, 2 pups and 2 cats, and spends as much time as possible in the garden.

A writing workshop with Genoa Bliven
Explore the depths of your Human Design through the free-associative writing practices developed by Genoa Bliven. Discover your Human Design Authority in your own words and in your own life, in a safe and supportive environment.

Who it's for

This workshop is for Human Design Students at all levels of study, from beginner to advanced.

About Genoa

I met Human Design on August 26, 1995.

One of Ra Uru Hu’s early students had seen my chart and offered me a reading. At 3:00 p.m., she astonished me with a stream of incisive information. She gave me her study cards and books.

I went home and began studying my chart through the original Rave I Ching in "The Black Book". I was shocked to find, in its pages, details about my true nature, my relationships, and the challenges that had shaped my life. How could this be possible!

At dawn, the next morning, I began memorizing the BodyGraph. Soon afterward, I met Ra Uru Hu, studied with him for years in Taos and Sedona, and became an Analyst. In 2003, Ra appointed me Head of School in the United States and then Director of Human Design America. I continued learning through meetings with Ra and events in Ibiza.

Creative writing became central to investigating Human Design. Through writing, I discovered how Human Design worked, used it to clarify what happened in my childhood, and recognized its relevance to others. That sustained inquiry, along with my concern for each student’s development, guided my educational work. After writing nine thousand words in my journals, I created a renewed Human Design America curriculum.

I introduced a series of courses that invite students to discover themselves within Human Design through their creative process, to recognize the unmistakable voice of their Authority, and to move toward becoming successful Professionals in this remarkable work.

The Space Between
Annie Richardson · Line 1 · Ground
Sat · 10:40 – 12:10 · The Board Room + Streaming
The offering

When I first discovered Human Design, I wanted to understand my chart. Over time, I realised the real invitation wasn't simply to know myself more. It was to recognise myself more often.

Human Design offers us a map, but living our design happens in the middle of ordinary life. It unfolds through conversations, relationships, parenting, work, grief, joy, uncertainty and all the moments in between.

In this experiential workshop, we'll practise recognition and awareness together. Through reflection, facilitated conversation and gentle experiential exercises, we'll become curious about what it means to notice ourselves in real time, and how the awareness we bring to the experiment can deepen it. Together, we'll explore a practice of observation, discernment and recognition that participants can continue long after the workshop has ended.

Who it's for

This session is for those who already have a relationship with Human Design and have discovered that understanding their chart is only the beginning. Whether you are a practitioner supporting others or someone quietly living your own experiment, this workshop is an invitation to become curious about the space between knowing your design and recognising yourself in the midst of everyday life.

About Annie

Annie Richardson is a counsellor, Somatic EMDR practitioner and Human Design mentor with a passion for helping people bridge the space between insight and lived experience. Drawing on years of clinical practice and her own Human Design experiment, she creates reflective, experiential spaces where people can recognise themselves with greater honesty and compassion. Her work weaves together Human Design, somatic awareness and practical experimentation, inviting people to move beyond understanding their chart and into a deeper relationship with themselves.

In a group setting, we'll explore how to use essential oils to develop somatic awareness, how to acknowledge and honor emotions and how to move the emotional energy with somatic practices, breathwork and essential oil support.

About Carla

Carla Unger is a passionate wellness guide, human design practitioner, licensed massage therapist, yoga teacher, and essential oil educator—all rooted in her mission to help you develop deeper somatic awareness, heal from within, and live more aligned with your true self. Over nearly two decades working with the human body, Carla has brought together her love of energy, transformation, and natural healing into a uniquely integrated wellness practice.
Her journey with Human Design began through deep personal heartbreak and loss. In 2020, Carla faced a season of upheaval: the sudden closing of her wellness center, the passing of her beloved grandmother Laura, and the grief of a missed miscarriage. These experiences, while unsettling, ultimately led her to discover Human Design. Through experimenting, she began to decondition from limiting patterns, returning home to herself with newfound clarity.
Carla is a certified Living Your Design Guide through the International Human Design School and has recently completed analyst training with the New School of Human Design. Her work with Human Design gives clients a mechanical and practical understanding of how they are wired—helping them experiment with strategy and authority to make decisions that feel deeply right for them.
But Carla’s holistic approach doesn’t stop there. She is deeply committed to the power of essential oils to support mind, body, and spirit. Whether you’re new to oils or already enjoy them, Carla offers wellness consultations (in-person or virtual), online education, and monthly classes to help you integrate these tools in an informed, empowered way. Her favorite way of supporting clients is through her personalized essential oil blends based on their Human Design charts. She actively promotes using essential oils to process and progress emotional wellbeing.
As a bodyworker, Carla has more than 20 years of experience—specializing in Craniosacral therapy, massage, and other modalities. Her sessions are deeply attuned to the nervous system and fascia, with the belief that the body has an innate capacity to heal when treated with respect and care. She also weaves in essential oil protocols to offer a truly synergistic healing experience.
On the movement side, Carla teaches yoga in both public classes and private sessions, creating a space where presence and trust are cultivated. She offers a variety of styles—from healing Yin that supports deeper connective tissue, to energizing Ashtanga, flowing Vinyasa, and even cosmic yin sessions paired with tarot, aromatherapy, meditation, and crystal work.
Through all her offerings—whether bodywork, yoga, human design, or oils—Carla fosters a safe, supportive environment for transformation. She believes that real change begins within, and with the right tools and support, you can navigate any season of life with greater ease, purpose, and self-alignment.
Carla is based in Cedar City, Utah, and offers both in-person and virtual work. She has recently expanded her business through offering wellness retreats where clients can have an inclusive experience using all the tools she offers. These retreats, known as The Still Point, are an opportunity for individuals or couples to rest, reset and create space for transformation from a place of stillness within.
Whether you’re seeking emotional support, energy alignment, physical release, or simply a deeper connection with yourself, Carla Unger offers a compassionate, experienced, and holistic container to guide you.

The EmbodieHD Landscape
Jahje Ives · Line 3 · Experiment
Sat · 2:00 – 5:15 · Soft Space
The offering

What if your Human Design chart wasn't just something you read?
What if it became something you could see, feel, explore, and create?

In this hands-on workshop, you'll be introduced to the EmbodieHD Landscape Human Design Deck, an illustrated exploration of the 64 Gates created to help you experience Human Design in a more intuitive, visual, and embodied way.

Rather than memorizing keywords or trying to decode your chart, we'll begin with the four placements that create the foundation of your unique landscape: your Personality Sun, Personality Earth, Design Sun, and Design Earth.

Together we'll explore the role these four Gates play in your life and discover the seeds (your gifts), the weeds (the challenges that help you grow), and contemplative questions that invite you into deeper self-understanding.

Each card is more than information. It's an artistic transmission inspired by the lived experience of people who carry these energies, translating Human Design into imagery and embodied language that speaks to both the mind and the heart.

You'll also receive a blank Human Design bodygraph to transform into your own piece of art. Using the cards as inspiration or allowing your own intuition to guide you to create an embodied map of your design through color, symbols, flowers, words, or whatever wants to emerge.

No artistic experience is necessary.
This isn't about making beautiful art.
It's about creating a deeper relationship with yourself.

Whether you're just starting out with Human Design or have been studying it for years, you'll leave with a fresh way of exploring your chart, a personalized piece of artwork, and a deeper appreciation for the landscape that has been living within you all along.

Come ready to play.
Come ready to create.
Come ready to recognize yourself in a whole new way.

Who it's for

It is for someone who has some experience with the Human Design gates

Projector Hacks: Nine-Center Relating

The offering

Offering information and loving practical applications on honest nine center relating as a projector. Projector Hacks for life. Staying YOU and feeling secure in community. Understanding and shining a light on how projector aura mechanics combined with our deep constant awareness of the other can easily and unintentionally trip us up or bring resistance into relating and living instead of ease. Bitterness can be a slippery slope and a depressing and hard place to live from, and the feeling of success can feel laughably unattainable from that place. I'd like to offer some information and tools to help better inform ourselves and others as we move through life. I would like some space and time at the end for questions as well.

Who it's for

I think all levels of experience could benefit, as it will be shared mostly through lived experiences.

Midlife in Motion: The Uranus Opposition
Rebekah Anderson · Line 4 · Communing
Sat · 3:40 – 5:10 · Maravilla B
The offering

At HDHD I'm bringing Midlife in Motion, a 90-minute interactive session on the Uranus Opposition through Human Design. We'll move between short framing, small-group conversation, and whole-group reflection, working with chart examples. You'll want your birth chart, your Uranus Opposition chart, and a composite chart, on a phone or printed ahead.

Who it's for

This offering is for participants in their late 30s to late 40s who are approaching, in, or recently through their Uranus Opposition.
Participants should:
- Know their Type, Strategy, and Authority
- Be familiar with their Profile and Incarnation Cross
- Be comfortable looking at their chart independently
This is best suited for intermediate students who are actively living their experiment and curious about how life cycles intersect with their design.

About Rebekah

I’m Rebekah Anderson, a 2/4 Splenic Projector who has been actively living my Human Design experiment for almost five years. What started as curiosity became a steady, embodied practice that reshaped how I make decisions, move through relationships, and navigate major life transitions.
I’m a certified Living Your Design Guide and spent three years in an ongoing Human Design study group, along with two years studying through HDX with Emma Dunwoody. I’m especially drawn to the fundamentals: Type, Strategy, Authority, Profile, Centers and Circuitry, and how they show up in real, lived experience rather than just theory.
Through my practice, Living It Up Human Design, I offer Human Design Clarity Sessions and one-on-one coaching, primarily supporting women in midlife transitions, including career, relationships, and family dynamics. I’m currently in my Uranus Opposition, and that phase has deepened my curiosity about how life cycles interact with our design in real time.
I love gatherings and community spaces. Much of my own integration has happened in spaces where people are honestly exploring their charts together. That’s the kind of space I enjoy facilitating: interactive, reflective, and collaborative.

Experimenting with Self / Not-Self
Esther Powers · Line 6 · Sovereignty
Sun · 9:00 – 10:30 · Soft Space
The offering

This session is an experiential exploration of the relationship between Self and Other as a practical way of engaging the Human Design experiment.

Through guided presentation, discussion, individual reflection, and group exercises, participants will explore how the distinction between Self and Other relates to the Human Design concepts of Self and Not-Self.

Participants will investigate how thoughts, emotions, beliefs, identities, conditioning, relationships, and life experiences can shift from being unconsciously identified with (Self) to becoming consciously observable (Other). The session provides practical opportunities to recognize these shifts and to explore how increased awareness supports one's ongoing Human Design experiment.

The workshop is designed as an inquiry rather than a presentation of conclusions. Participants leave with a practical framework for continued observation and exploration of Self, Other, Self, and Not-Self in everyday life.

Who it's for

Come as you are.

Whether this is your first introduction to Human Design or you've been living your experiment for years, you are welcome. This is a very universal discussion beyond Human Design, focused on supporting navigation of the experiment and concepts behind it.

This experience is for those who feel drawn to explore the relationship between Self, Other, Self, and Not-Self through direct experience rather than intellectual discussion.

Bring your curiosity. Leave your assumptions at the door as much as you can. Be willing to question what you think you know, to be present with yourself and the others in the room, and be open to discover what becomes visible through the experience. My goal is for you to leave with a simple (not alwasy easy) practical tool you can use in your day-to-day decision making experience beyond this conference.

The session will be held by a 5/1 Reflector, offering many participants the rare opportunity to consciously explore these questions within the unique field a Reflector naturally creates.

Healing the Scars

The offering

This hands-on workshop is designed to provide you with tools to release conditioning and old patterns from your field (Body/Mind/Spirit) and replace them with self-authority so you can live your life with greater ease and grace. I am an energy healer and practitioner of the Emotion and Body Codes. Some of you may have experienced my informational presentations and had release of Trapped Emotions at previous conferences. In this workshop, I am focusing on an energy healing process called HeartThread which I practice and teach.

In the first part of the workshop, I explain the principles of HeartThread using a powerpoint presentation which includes centering and alignment exercises. I demonstrate how it works and then we partner-up and take turns to practice the process on each other, then switch roles.

HeartThread is a Revolutionary, transformational modality that transmits a frequency of love, safety & connection through the field of the heart, releasing old patterns of trauma & conditioning from the body. It is facilitated by a practitioner utilizing sound and touch. The purpose of HeartThread is to bring people back to their self-authority. As we release old patterns of conditioning, trauma & self-doubt, we live from the true essence of our authentic self.

Who it's for

Those who have experienced trauma, abuse, blocks to success in terms of health, relationships and finances, low self esteem and those who are ready to release their old patterns, doubts and confusion. If you feel your heart is closed, this process helps to open it. It is also potent for those at a crossroads, not sure of how to move forward or anyone who wants greater peace and joy in their lives. Applies to anyone and everyone. No experience or knowledge needed.

Navigating the Convergence Window
Meghan O'Malley · Line 6 · Sovereignty
Sun · 2:00 – 3:30 · The Board Room + Streaming
The offering

This session introduces The Convergence Window, a three-phase framework that I developed for understanding the necessary phases of alchemy, disruption and recalibration that arise on the path of actually embodying our design, truth and purpose in the world.

This is not the typical Human Design "informational" talk, but is meant to be a support in the ongoing embodiment of it, for those already in some relationship with their design and ongoing experiment. As we begin to live more into our design (and what I call our own "Imaginal Intelligence"), the greater quantum intelligence of life responds. Old structures, stories, relationships, unconscious nervous system patterns, and identities that no longer fit begin to be challenged and exposed. It's messy and people often interpret it as failure - it is not failure, but an essential recalibration.

This session offers a map for understanding that experience — one that works on the conscious, nervous system, and energetic levels — reframing what can feel like breakdown as intelligent realignment.

Through a blend of teaching, reflection and embodied practice, participants will develop greater capacity to recognize which phase of the convergence window framework they are in, resource and regulate themselves through periods of disruption rather than bypassing or collapsing, and find deeper meaning and purpose in the unfolding.

Participants have the opportunity to leave with a shift in perspective that transforms how they relate to the messier, less linear aspects of living into their design — and a felt sense of trust in the larger, loving intelligence guiding the process.

Who it's for

Anyone who is on an intentional path of growth or conscious becoming will find meaning in this session, so it will apply to those with early awareness of HD as well as those continuing to live into their design more fully who have years of insight. (part of my unique magic is in creating offerings that feel both universally supportive and where people can feel individually met and supported where they are)

About Meghan

Meghan O'Malley is a Speaker, Author, Facilitator, Coach, and Consultant whose work lives at the intersection of ancient wisdom and emerging science — and whose own unlearning has been the greatest teacher of all.

With a Master's in Community Counseling and over a decade of clinical experience as a therapist, Meghan spent years helping people navigate mental health, trauma, and relational complexity before deliberately leaving the conventional therapeutic paradigm to do work that is truly whole-person. She brings that clinical depth into a far more expansive container — one that weaves together somatic intelligence, applied neuroscience, neurofeedback, Human Design, spirituality, energy work, intuition, and quantum theory as a holistic leadership modality.

As a 2026 TEDx Speaker — whose talk Unshakeable: The Power of Connection When Everything Is Crumbling was born from the conversations she kept hearing about people searching for solid ground in a world that won't stop shifting — Meghan works with individuals and teams navigating the individual and collective changes, challenges, and in-betweens of life, helping them become something truly new on the other side.

She is the co-author of Unstuck Yourself: Thrive Beyond Burnout & Discover Your True Purpose, a book that blends an embodied introduction to the Human Design types with somatics, science, and heart-centered activism — giving readers both a map and a process for re-storying their lives and living into their true purpose and design.

She is also the host of The Imaginal Change Podcast.

Meghan believes Human Design is not a system to be intellectually understood — it's a map toward deeper truth and alignment that is meant to be lived.

Human Design Cartography: Place Is Personal
Jackson Mathey & Alison Dale · Line 3 · Experiment
Sun · 2:00 – 3:30 · Benitez
The offering

Your Human Design chart shows you how you're designed to move through the world. Your astrocartography map shows you where that design gets to breathe. In this talk, we bring those two systems together - exploring how your key planetary lines interact with your gates, channels, and incarnation cross to show the geography of your life.

Whether you're considering a move, planning travel, or just curious why certain places have always felt more alive than others, this is a conversation about the deeper intelligence underneath that pull. Jackson and Alison of ELA Map (Your Energy Location Atlas) guide you through the intersection of your energetic blueprint and your place on Earth.

Come ready to look at your chart and your map in the same breath. Bringing a laptop is recommended if you have one, but not required.

Who it's for

You don't need to know anything about astrocartography to get something real out of this workshop. If you've ever felt more like yourself in one place than another - more energized, more clear, more at home - there's an energetic atlas for that.

Human Design is a system that describes how your energy works: how you make decisions, how you're built to interact with others, and what kind of environment lets you thrive. Astrocartography maps where on Earth both your birth chart and design chart come alive. When you overlay the two, patterns start to emerge that can shift how you think about where you live, where you travel, and where you're headed next.

Jackson and Alison walk you through the basics of both systems and show you how they speak to each other - no prior knowledge needed, just curiosity about yourself and the places that call to you.

About Jackson

Jackson Mathey is a software and audio engineer, and the founder of ELA Map. ELA is your Energy Location Atlas, an advanced astrocartography platform built to bring all of your locational astrology and Human Design mapping into one navigable workspace. He comes from a lineage of mapmakers, architects, and craftspeople, and has spent years building tools for precision in service of navigation, healing and creation. He has a Cancer stellium and a deep personal relationship with the question of home and place.

Alison Dale is an Eco-Somatic Astrologer & Human Design guide, and the founder of Hearth & Spiral, where she works at the intersection of astrology, Human Design, somatic practice, and the mythology of place. She is a consultant and practitioner for ELA Map and has spent years developing the framework that became Human Design Cartography - mapping how your energetic design interacts with the geography of your life.

“Other-Than-Human” Design
Merritt Wuchina · Line 3 · Experiment
Sun · 9:00 – 12:15 · Maravilla A
The offering

The Human Design system is a map of how the human body is aligned to celestial bodies (the sun, planets, and asteroids).

Sounds like astrology, right?

Well, partially. Human Design is a unique system because can do something different than astrology — it also gives these alignments to plants, animals, and inanimate objects. That means, one could potentially draw up a BodyGraph for anything — from a chicken to a crystal! Within your own Design, you might find you are part plant, part fish, part ameba, etc., You are ‘other-than-human’ *and* a Human-being with 9-centered complexity.

And it goes even further. At the most subtle level of HD, the individual will also discover his or her relation to the unseen (or-not-so-often-seen) world — i.e., the paranormal and the supernatural!

Everything from angels and demons, to aliens and entities, are filtered through the mechanics of our unique experience at the level of personality color. Could encounters with these spirits be a sign of mental delusion? Or a sign of heightened awareness? Human Design shows us that more likely, these beings exists within the perception our unique configuration that allow us ‘see’ the other-than-human aspects of life that already exist within ourselves.

[*That is to say, this is not be a practice of ‘summoning’ or ‘channeling’ anything. We will use fully human metaphorical language of ‘alienated’ parts, ‘ghosts that haunt us,’ ‘facing our inner demons’ etc. that will reveal themselves to us naturally as we slow down and trust.]

In this workshop we will not just sit, lecture, and talk about these phenomena, but explore and experiment with our relations to their potentials through our own embodiment.

Facilitators will guide participants in the exploration of ‘other-than-human’ elements in their design, through an embodiment practice called SPT (Social Prescening Theater) and relationship to animate and mystical beings. We will embody the field through mediation, dance, individual sculptures, duets, a co-created ‘village,’ an exploratory walk, and small group breakouts.

This workshop is open to participants at all levels. Come with an open imagination to explore the possibilities.

Who it's for

This workshop is open to participants at all levels of HD.

Ideal for those who might be called ‘too sensitive’ (hanging Gate 19 friends)

For anyone who feels ‘stuck’ in some aspect of life (problem, relationship, or work) and want to move through the issue relationally, rather than mentally

- - *if it needs to be made clear, this is not be a practice of ‘summoning’ or ‘channeling’ etc. we will use fully human metaphorical language of ‘alienated parts’, ‘ghosts that haunt us,’ ‘facing our inner demons’ etc.

Must come with an open imagination to explore the possibilities.

About Merritt

Hi, I’m Merritt.

Early elementary school teacher turned systems-thinker who facilitates workshops for teams and guides individuals in the knowledge of their Human Design.

I am an investigator who has spent her ‘10,000 hours’ self-taught in HD. I also am a heretic who wants to say : “that’s nice, but what has all of this information truly said about what it means to be ‘me’ ?”

Well, I can’t say I’ve come to any solid conclusions. But I can say that perhaps our Human Design should be re-written as a verb, not a noun.

I am not just a “A Self-Projected Projector.” I am more like “a Self-Projected Projector, Self-Projected Projector-ing.”

That brings you and me to this magical place called the “G-Center” or “Soul.”  My work in embodying this language grounds my facilitation in a **somatic, heart-centered approach** that values nervous system awareness, relational attunement, and practical clarity, not just labels.

I focus on translating the chart into usable insight that supports your day-to-day decisions, communication, and regulation to create a more whole relationship between your Self and your community.

My training in workshop facilitation comes from Social Prescencing Theater and Warm Data Labs. I will be joined by my partner Cullen Kowalski in facilitating both of these practices at HDHD.

The offering

In this workshop, I will guide participants through the shifts that we see in our kids, in our families, and in our communities. I will highlight what our kids needs from us today, as it compares to perhaps the way we were parented. We will discuss why our kids so desperately need us to 1) be regulated, 2) see them for the unique gifts they hold, and 3) respond with love to their deep, human needs. We’ll immerse ourselves in a guided Emotional Freedom Technique experience to release generational stories that are holding us back from the parents, caregivers that our soul knows we’re here to be.

I will bring to this workshop my knowledge and experience with Human Design, Quantum Human Design, the Emotional Freedom Technique, and Developmental Psychology.

Who it's for

This workshop is for parents, grandparents, caregivers, or change-makers who at least have a basic understanding of their own design, and who are ready (or who have started!) to dig into the charts of loved ones!

Opening Ceremony · The Spiral of Everything

Brandy Jordan, Steward
We open the gathering by naming where we are. This year HDHD lives inside The Spiral of Everything, a map for locating what is active in your life right now and finding the work that meets you there. In this opening, Brandy welcomes the field into its sixth-line season and walks everyone into the architecture that holds the days ahead. You will leave knowing where you stand in your own process and how the rest of the gathering is built to support it.

About Brandy

Brandy Jordan is the steward of High Desert Human Design this year, carrying the gathering into its sixth-line season. She comes to this work as a Human Design and astrology practitioner, a teacher, and a builder of living systems. Underneath all of it sits a background in Metaphysical Psychology and substance abuse counseling.

This year she is producing HDHD inside The Spiral of Everything, the architecture she has been developing to hold offerings, practitioners, and community for over 2 decades. Her opening talk walks people into that map. As a way to locate where they already are and what is alive for them right now.

Brandy teaches from lived experience more than performance. She is direct, a little poetic, and steady in a room. She is a mother of four and grandmother of two, and she builds her work the way she lives: through relationship, integrity, and a trust that people can recognize their own next honest step.

Warming the High Desert: A Warm Data Lab
Cullen Kowalski & Merritt Wuchina · Line 2 · Embodiment
Thu · 2:00 – 5:15 · Maravilla B
The offering

"How do we know what we know?" This is what Warm Data makes us question. "How does life 'life' and how does life learn?" You learn by being a human. This is a chance to feel what that feels like.

Based on the success of our experimental Warm Data Lab at HDHD2025 (https://dub.sh/hdhd2025-hd-meets-wd-summary), and the distinct effect such a profound experience can create for participants, no matter what their design, we would love to propose that we animate the opening ceremony for HDHD2026 with a Warm Data Lab.

Quite simply, we envision a potent multi-contextual ice-breaker that can help attendees discover areas of complexity in their lives in which they find more of themselves and each other and how they might show up differently in an ever increasingly complex world.

This is a chance to experience a 'Wa' and a 'Penta' without thinking about it. You're experience with others in large and small groups will be a reference throughout the entire conference where we come together in several combinations of collectives.

The "Warm" Data is all the information about our life story that never gets a place to be seen, heard or felt.

Who it's for

The full assembly of all HDHD2026 attendees of all designs, thus "All hearts and Hands and Designs on deck!"

Recovery by Design Meeting

Fri · 3:40 – 5:10 · Maravilla B
The offering

This is an open meeting to all designs to connect and share experiences with the primary focus on the intersection of addiction recovery models and the Human Design Deconditioning journey. My interest is to host a sharing circle in which participants can join regardless of level of knowledge and years in the journey, only the common goal: the desire to stop taking not-self decisions. The structure of this meeting will resemble a 'speaker meeting' in which myself will open with general information and a personal share of my experience and strength derived from deconditioning, then follow with open sharing time for participants. I will emphasize the importance of no interruptions, cross-talk or advice, and limiting the time of sharing. This is to create a space in which participants can be seen, heard and express their honest truth with each other. My goal with this meeting is to encourage the nourishment of honest connection and relate with others that resonate with the topic.

The Existential Detective: Case Notes on How We Exist in a Changing Relational Landscape

Something is changing in the way we exist in relation to one another.

As we approach the change in background frequency, expectations around partnership, security, intimacy, and roles are colliding, and that tension is now impossible to ignore. What if these conflicts aren’t simply social or personal, but traces of the global program at work?

Let’s investigate. We’ll sample the Maya for evidence and ask, not what comes next? but can we recognize what’s already happening amongst us?

Who it's for

I think it’s ultimately for everyone, though beginners knowing virtually nothing about the global frequency change might have a little trouble

About Marissa

Traversing the ever-turning wheel with awe, Marissa Chargualaf is a 2/4 Reflector sampling different lenses through which to investigate the great mysteries of being. With the Moon driving her role as the listener, she witnesses the stories of the collective experiential way, unmasking synchronicities between the mundane and mystical revealed in reflection over time and cycles. This feeds her ongoing curiosity and research into Human Design, astrology, personality typologies, and other systems for understanding ourselves, the other, and the greater context we find ourselves in. Her resonant meeting with Human Design in early 2018 drove immediate study, experimentation, and later—analyst training.

Also a graphic designer, Marissa has unique taste not only reflected by her aesthetic choices, but by her creative instinct for connecting and universalizing ideas through layered meaning—an orientation that extends into the way she perceives the world. Her developing project, The Existential Detective, emerged out of that orientation and the ways Human Design reveals itself through lived experience, opening an ongoing investigation into the deceptively simple question that keeps returning: How do you exist?

Before the Shift: Money, Contracts & the Global Cycle

Sat · 10:40 – 12:10 · Maravilla B
The offering

My offering is about identifying the practical awareness tools hidden in the current global cycle, especially around money, work, value, contracts, agreements, and responsibility. My theory is that these themes act like keys within specific locks, helping us understand how to live more fully as ourselves and make cleaner decisions according to our design. This is about using the lessons of this closing cycle as a path of least resistance into the future.

The Pluto Interregnum
Daljeet Peterson · Line 6 · Sovereignty
Sat · 2:00 – 5:15 · Benitez
The offering

This three-hour workshop explores Pluto’s movement through the gates of the Rave Mandala as a generational and collective marker at the threshold of 2027.

Rather than treating the end of the Pluto Interregnum as a simple ending, this workshop approaches it as the beginning of a new cycle. Even as Pluto enters a new phase, the generations already alive on the planet continue to carry the pre-2027 Pluto gates and lines. Those signatures remain embodied in us, active in the collective, and socially consequential well into the future.

The workshop will invite participants to experience this directly by creating a living social mandala in the room. Participants will be organized spatially according to their Pluto gate, allowing the group itself to become a real-time portrait of Pluto’s movement through the Rave Mandala. From there, we will explore several interconnected layers of meaning: Pluto by gate as generational signature, Pluto by quarter as a larger season of collective purpose, Pluto by center as an emphasis in the collective bodygraph, and Pluto by intergenerational relationship as a living relay between cohorts.

A central focus will be the current handoff between the Quarter of Duality and the Quarter of Mutation. Most participants alive today will carry Pluto in one of these two quarters. This creates a profound opportunity to explore the relay between bonding and transformation, between elder wisdom and mutational adaptation, and between the generations that still carry the outgoing frequencies of the current cycle and those who will prepare the way for what comes next.

Blending Human Design, collective astrology, historical pattern recognition, and facilitated dialogue, this workshop asks participants to see their Pluto placement not only as a personal detail in their design, but as part of a much larger collective soul process.

Who it's for

This workshop is for students and practitioners of Human Design who are interested in the larger collective and historical dimensions of the system. It is especially for those drawn to Pluto, the 2027 transition, generational inquiry, and the role of Human Design as a lens for understanding cultural change.

It is appropriate for intermediate to advanced students, though newer students with a basic familiarity with gates, quarters, and bodygraph structure will also be able to engage meaningfully with the material through the experiential format.

About Daljeet

Daljeet Peterson is an astrologer, writer, and teacher whose work explores the deeper patterns linking individual destiny, generational cycles, and collective transformation. Drawing from astrology, Human Design, and long-wave cultural analysis, he brings a mythic, philosophical, and historically grounded approach to questions of identity, purpose, and participation in times of transition. His current body of work includes an ongoing exploration of Pluto generations and collective soul purpose through his writing, teaching, and the developing Collective Souls project.

Exploring the Mechanics of Consciousness
Luisa Lucia · Line 1 · Ground
Fri · 2:00 – 3:30 · Maravilla B
The offering

An exploration of consciousness through the lens of Human Design. I will break down the theoretical "science of differentiation" via neutrino physics and the crystals of consciousness. We will explore the relationship between macro and micro, unpacking some of the fractal patterns (eg rave mandala and codon wheel) that permeate the Program. And we'll dive into substructure to explore the ultimate meaning of our self-reflected consciousness. I will draw on a lot of material from my upcoming book, "The Language of the Stars".

Who it's for

Probably best suited for an intermediate HD audience, but could appeal to both newbies and advanced practitioners.

Title Finding Our Light in the Fragments
Subtitle An Experiential Session in Uncertainty, Radical Self-Trust, and Shared Knowing

Description
None of us hold the whole light alone.
We arrive at a conference like this carrying fragments: knowledge from teachers we trust, memories that both connect and distort us, wisdom we’ve folded quietly into our bodies over years of living. This closing session isn’t built to resolve that into one tidy answer. It’s built to trust that the fragments matter exactly as they are, and that something real happens when we stop holding them separately.

My own curiosity here traces back to my own chart. My Pluto sits in Gate 64, the gate of confusion before completion, on both my personality and design sides. I’ve spent years learning that the questions themselves are the transformation, not something standing in the way of it. That understanding meets a teaching from Ra Uru Hu that has stayed with me: our collective memories can distort as easily as they connect us.

What if the way through isn’t more certainty, but a more honest sharing of what we each actually carry?

🪩Think of a mirrorball. It doesn’t generate its own light. It only works because light is already in the room, and it scatters that light back out, multiplied, reaching places it couldn’t reach alone. That’s the shape of this session. This isn’t asking anyone to build personal trust in isolation. It’s asking a room to dissolve the boundary between our separate knowings and let something collective happen. Self-trust becomes the entry point, but where we land is a spirit-level experience of shared knowing.
Come ready to shine your light, and to let it catch everyone else’s in the room too.

This will be entirely experiential. Come ready to participate, not to take notes.

As a triple-split Projector carrying the Channel of Contribution and the Channel of Surrender, along with a deeply mutative emotional wave, I’ll be shaping this session to move at the pace of felt truth rather than a fixed script.

Who it's for

Open to all experience levels, no Human Design or Kabbalah background needed. This is for people willing to actively participate rather than sit and observe. There’s no required skill in movement, music, or writing. What’s required is a willingness to bring a fragment of your own knowing into the room and trust what happens when it meets everyone else’s. Participants choose their own way of engaging, through words, rhythm, movement, or simply being present with a small group as something is built. Not recommended for anyone wanting a seated, information-based session.

About Kathy

Kathy Bochonko is Your Guide to Radical Self-Trust and a founding WisdomKeeper on The Spiral of Everything.
She has spent a decade in the Human Design experiment, and can tell you that the only thing she knows for certain is that uncertainty is not the enemy. It is the threshold. Her work lives there.
As a 6/2 Emotional Projector with Triple Split definition, Kathy is wired to read the patterns underneath what people are saying, to ask the honest question even when it is uncomfortable, and to light the way back to your own clarity. That is radical self-trust in practice.
Kathy believes we are all WisdomKeepers. Whether through contemplative exercise, her signature Mirror Ball reading, personal mentorship, or immersive group experience, everything she offers points back to you. To your own inner wisdom. To the knowing you have been second-guessing.
Like a mirror ball, we are each made of fragments. Every piece of you, the brilliant ones and the ones you have kept hidden, has light to reflect. Gathering those fragments, finding the light within them, and helping you learn to shine your light in a way only you can. That is the work. And the world needs you to shine your light. All of it. 🪩

Play's 6th Line Love
Fred Landers · Line 6 · Sovereignty
Sun · 2:00 – 5:15 · Maravilla B
The offering

As practice for the 6th Line era the Earth enters in 2027, this workshop will, in its second half, culminate in a play experience involving two roles. In the role of a Fan, we will look at information the Players offer us from their designs and comment out loud to celebrate how beautifully, during the ongoing play, the Players are playing at the edges of what they already know how to play with. We will appreciate how the Players are playing with what they find almost unplayable, and thus expanding what is playable for them. In the role of Player, we will, together, improvise movements and roles in scenes, sometimes incorporating the commentary of Fans into our play. Fourteen or fewer Players and Fans will have this experience, the culmination of the workshop, of increasing our capacity for living the fullness of what comes our way in life by playing to expand our playability.

In the first half of the workshop, we will play a series of 3 or 4 movement games that are great fun and will give you a taste of play within a single structure. Please arrive early or within the first 5 minutes. You are welcome to come out of curiosity and stay only as long as you are engaged. When you have played as long as you want to, please make your exit from the workshop after one of the movement games or during the mid-workshop break.

Since the expansion of playability is the goal of this workshop, we will only witness others playing while we, too, are playing, including when we are playing the role of loving Fan in the second half. If, when you get to the mid-workshop break, you find yourself excited to play more, please continue after the break and join us for the second half.

To come to this workshop, no prior experience is necessary. Wear clothes you are comfortable moving in. To come to the second half, you must have experienced the first half.

No RSVP required to attend this workshop.

Who it's for

This workshop will be a rich experience for participants with any level of experience in HD who are intrigued by the description. Play, a loving integration according to spirit (Line 6), will be both the primary content and the primary mode of learning in the workshop. However, within the play, this will be an exciting real time practice of the HD experiment (Line 3) as Ra described it, a toggling between our actual experiences and our design in order to clarify and purify how we are living our design. And it will be an experience of embodiment (Line 2), of doing what we feel called to do in the play. For those with more experience, sometimes playing the Fan (a loving witness) and sometimes playing the Player (a beloved improviser of movements and roles in structured scenes) in the series of warm up activities and in the main play session will support them in integrating the paradox of Line 3's internal testing and evaluation and Line 2's external expression.

About Fred

As a practitioner for over two decades of the play-based Developmental Transformations (DvT) method of drama therapy, in sessions of which, therapist and clients improvise movements and roles in scenes, and as a teacher of new drama therapists, most notably as Coordinator and Core Faculty of the graduate Drama Therapy Program at Antioch University Seattle, 2014-2021, Fred Landers (PhD, LCAT, RDT-BCT) has consistently experimented with the form of the work, taking DvT to the streets (Urban Play, 2006), incorporating technology (Hybrid DvT, 2023), and most recently combining DvT with Human Design, with which he has been experimenting since November, 2022. Among Fred's clients who have used DvT to help them regulate their nervous systems are combat veterans in a national, inpatient post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) program; child survivors of sexual abuse in a child guidance clinic; middle school students at an in-school health clinic in the Bronx; and adults with diagnoses of mental illness who are adapting to high levels of instability and changing their lives as they re-enter the world. In addition to his graduate-level teaching in the U.S., Fred has trained new practitioners of DvT drama therapy in New Zealand, South Korea, and China.

Sacred Soul Circle: Attune to the Land, Your Ancestors & Your Soul's Next Step

Maggie Battista works at the intersection of soul philosophy, ancestral wisdom, and sacred practice—where your Soul becomes your bridge to the field, your ancestors speak, and you emerge into the fullness of who you came here to be. She has been living the Human Design experiment for 12+ years.

In this Sacred Soul Circle, Maggie will open the field and attune the circle to the land and the ancestral lineage of all those present—honoring the earth beneath our feet and the ones who came before us, whose wisdom is available to us still.

From that grounded, open space, Maggie will share her own story of how living her Human Design experiment guided her to her Soul's work—and how it gave her permission to be all of herself. It is a story of following what is true over what is expected, and of the ancestors who walked beside her every step of the way.

This circle is designed to integrate all that has unfolded over the conference—allowing the insights, activations, and connections of recent days to settle into your body and your Soul before you return home.

The circle includes a guided 15-minute journey into the astral—a sacred descent to hear your Soul's voice, receive the presence of an ancestor, and return with clarity on your next step.

This is not a panel or a presentation. It is a living transmission—an experience of what becomes possible when you stop performing your design and start following your Soul.

What to Expect

In our time together, you will:

* Experience an attunement to the land and the ancestral lineage of all those present
* Hear Maggie's story of how Human Design and Soul wisdom converged into her life's work
* Integrate and settle all that the conference has stirred before you return home
* Journey into the astral in a guided meditation to hear your Soul's voice and receive guidance from an ancestor
* Return with clarity on one Soul-directed next step

What to Bring

Come with an open heart and one intention you'd like to offer your Soul. A journal is welcome.

Vedic Astrology & the Global Transition
Meher M · Line 6 · Sovereignty
Sun · 3:40 – 5:15 · The Board Room + Streaming
The offering

This session offers a Vedic astrological perspective on the current global transition period, exploring how planetary cycles reflect shifts in identity, perception, and systems at both individual and collective levels.

Topics covered:

*Rahu–Ketu nodal axis transit, which represents karmic reorientation and the dissolution of ahamkāra (ego-based identity structures), allowing for new patterns of awareness and collective alignment to emerge

*Saturn–Neptune conjunction:

Belief systems and inner narratives as systems shift.

*Pluto in Aquarius:

Deep transformation of collective power systems.

Together these graha influences describe a process of systemic reorganization under karmic pressure, involving the breakdown of māyā-based perceptions and the restructuring of social and technological order.

*The session includes an experiential component rooted in ancient Vedic practices of manas sthiratā (mental stabilization)
through breath awareness and mantra recitation to support clarity and emotional integration during these intense transits.

Between Sessions

From wherever you are.

The room takes breaks so the body can catch up to what it heard. The same is true for you. A few ways to stay in the field between sessions.

Make your own soft space
Leave the screen the way the room empties out.
In Santa Fe there are quiet rooms held for rest. You can hold one too. At lunch, step away. Ten slow minutes. Feet on the floor, breath low in the belly, no input. Tea made without hurry. Let the last session settle before the next one arrives.
Follow what moved you
When a session lands, stay with it.
Pull up your own chart while it is fresh and find the gate or center they named in your design. This year the room keeps circling 2027: Chiron's return, the convergence window, the Pluto interregnum. Read one thing about the transit that caught you. Look up the facilitator whose voice stayed with you. Most carry a wider body of work.
Write before it leaves
Keep something to write in beside you.
After a session, two questions. What did my body do while I listened? What am I ready to experiment with this week? Don't edit. A fragment is enough. This is how the map becomes something you live instead of something you studied.
Touch ground
Get up. Move.
Walk without your phone. Wash the dishes. Cook something slow. Let integration move through your hands and your feet, not only your mind. The body is where this work actually lands.
After the last session. The recordings hold. You can return to any session inside the app, in your own time. The Spiral keeps turning after these four days. wisdomspiral.com

A Santa Fe Field Guide

You are at 7,000 feet. Drink water. Wear layers. Say yes to green chile.
Eat · Line One
The Shed
Red chile enchiladas that have converted skeptics since 1953. Expect a wait; it earns it.
Cafe Pasqual's
Beloved corner spot for breakfast and brunch. Organic, colorful, worth arriving early.
La Choza
The Shed's sister near the Railyard. Ask for chile Christmas: red and green together.
Sazón
Chef Fernando Olea's moles. A slower, ceremonial dinner.
Paloma
Modern Mexican on Guadalupe. Bright, fresh, excellent mezcal.
Tia Sofia's
Where the breakfast burrito was born, smothered and unhurried.
Kakawa Chocolate House
Historic drinking-chocolate elixirs. A small cup holds a lot.
Iconik Coffee Roasters
Serious coffee, roomy tables, good for a slow morning.
Rest · Line Two
Ten Thousand Waves
Japanese-style hot baths in the piñon hills above town. Reserve ahead.
Ojo Santa Fe
Spa, gardens, and soaking pools twenty minutes south.
Santa Fe Botanical Garden
High-desert plantings on Museum Hill. Quiet and restorative.
The Plaza
Find a bench. Watch the light change on the Palace of the Governors. This counts as practice.
Walk & Hike · Line Four
Aspen Vista Trail
Golden aspens in mid-September. Bring a jacket; the trailhead is near 10,000 feet.
Atalaya Mountain
The classic in-town summit, about six miles round trip from St. John's College.
Dale Ball Trails
A gentle foothills network minutes from downtown. Choose your own distance.
Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks
Cone-shaped formations and a slot canyon an hour southwest. Check access first.
Bandelier National Monument
Ancestral Pueblo cliff dwellings in Frijoles Canyon. Ladders, canyon walls, deep time.
Canyon Road at golden hour
Half a mile of galleries and adobe. Less a walk, more a slow attunement.
Co-work · Line Five
Co-Fe
Core coworking room on S. Guadalupe. Fast internet, breakout rooms; shares a building with Iconik Coffee Lupe.
CoLab Coworking
Open tables and private spaces, with day passes and short memberships.
Iconik Coffee Roasters
The Cerrillos location is big and full of natural light. Great for a long working morning.
Santa Fe Public Library, Downtown
Free, quiet, and central. Work remotely for an hour between sessions.
Spaces, Riverside Plaza
Serviced coworking and meeting rooms when you want a door that closes.
Spiritually Connect · Line Six
El Santuario de Chimayó
A thirty-minute drive north, the pilgrimage church with its well of holy dirt. Officially Catholic, its message reaches past any one religion.
Loretto Chapel
The Gothic chapel with the Miraculous Staircase, built without nails or visible support. A quiet place to sit.
Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi
The heart of old Santa Fe. Slip into the Blessed Sacrament Chapel for silence.
San Miguel Chapel
The oldest church in the United States. Small, adobe, and still.
Upaya Zen Center
A Buddhist practice center minutes from town, with free daily meditation and weekly dharma talks open to all.
Cross of the Martyrs
A short climb to an overlook of the whole city. Good for perspective, which is Line Six's whole gift.
Star Dreaming
A twenty-two-acre sacred site south of Santa Fe: open-air stone temples, labyrinths, and medicine wheels built by hand over decades. Visits by appointment.

A Home for Living Wisdom

The Spiral of Everything is the map. This is where it keeps turning after Santa Fe.
The Wisdom Keepers Spiral · A home for living Wisdom · wisdomspiral.com

Teachings and practices held by the people who live them, placed by the dimension of life that is active for you right now. Self, Relationship, Family, Community, Collective, Spirit. You enter through what is alive.

Many of the facilitators you meet this week are building their work there. What opens in these four days has somewhere to keep going.
