Ra Uru Hu was the founder and original messenger of the Human Design System, a revolutionary synthesis of ancient wisdom and modern science. In 1987, he received an extraordinary eight-day transmission of knowledge that revealed the mechanics of life and the blueprint for human differentiation. For over 25 years, Ra dedicated himself to teaching and preserving this system, empowering individuals to live authentically and make decisions aligned with their true nature.

One of the main purposes of Human Design is to help us live fulfilling lives through healthy decision-making. We have the opportunity to experiment daily with Strategy and Authority to achieve personal fulfillment. But what about dying? Is there potential for fulfillment in this one-time event that we will all go through?
The Tibetan Book of the Dead, and Egyptian Book of the Dead are ancient texts that approached death based on an understanding that life doesn’t simply stop when the physical body dies. Human Design’s Rave Book of the Dead was inspired by the wisdom of these renowned texts, and is a unique guide for mapping the mechanics of death, and the Personality’s transition out of form.
Join Ra in exploring one of the most relevant aspects of Human Design that can be used to support anyone approaching the end of their life. This 6-hour course was originally part of the Equinox Lecture Series, and covers introductory aspects of the body’s dying process, and the Personality’s Bardo.
