Unlock authentic life force through Human Design Channels

For many of us, discovering Human Design and our BodyGraph felt something like coming home to ourselves. For the first time things that were true for us, as revealed by our BodyGraph, gave us insight into how we were meant to function in our lives and in the world; and that insight was presented without judgement. It was refreshing and exhilarating to come to a better understanding of ourselves without being urged to change anything about ourselves. The only thing we were urged to do was to understand who we are, trust that understanding and make choices that allowed us to live out our Design.

Human Design can be fascinatingly deep and complex, and at the same time, simple and direct. As Ra Uru Hu said, “The simple things in Human Design are often left behind, and at great risk; because despite its depth, it is in fact simple knowledge. It is knowledge where its great secrets are very obvious and on the surface. ...and nothing is more profound than the Channel itself.”

The Life Force energies of the Channels is one of the least explored areas in Human Design. A great deal of written and audio material is available about Gates, but there has been very limited information on the Channels. Channels are often examined in association with the interpretation of the values of the Gates, with Channels being the way those values can be brought together.

But the 36 life force energies of the Channels are much more than that. They establish the way in which we can each operate correctly. Out of the Channels, we find what is consistent and reliable in expressing our true nature. In the BodyGraph, Channels exist through connection — those places in the BodyGraph where two Gates connect to form a Channel between two Centers. If both Gates are activated in our chart, then the Channel is colored in on the BodyGraph and is easy to spot; it’s an indication that the Centers are defined, and there is a fixed, consistent movement of energy.

So Channels serve as guides to how we engage with the world — they indicate our frequency. The defined Channels in your BodyGraph help you understand how to express your innate nature authentically— your life force, your health, your vitality, your spirit and your mental acuity. They show you where your power is. They reveal your essence, the ways in which you are different from anybody else. And they show your promise — what you were designed to bring into the world.

Ra Uru Hu explored the impact of the Channels in an 11-lecture course he originally taught in 2008: The Life Force: The Channels, previously available only as a 180-page eBook (here's an excerpt). This course offers newcomers as well as long-time students an in-depth examination of the Channel as a quantum expression of the 64 Gates. 

Join Ra for The Life Force: The Channels to discover how your own Design is unique, and to understand how your BodyGraph gives insight to your purpose in life. View the Lessons tab for a description of each lesson.

Your Teacher

Ra Uru Hu

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.

What Ra’s students say

Becky Cohen

Founder and Owner The Conscious Revolution

Human Design has been a game changer in both my personal and professional life. Human Design is the most powerful modality I’ve ever experienced on discovering who you are, your unique gifts you bring to the world, and aligning to your life’s purpose

Cielia Hatch

Therapist

My Human Design journey started when a friend notified me, "I don't think you are living according to your type?!" Boy was she right. After 48 years of living as a manifesting generator, I discovered I am actually a mental projector. When I listened to Ra's talk about projectors, "From Bitterness to Success," his account of the life of a classic not-self projector mirrored the script of suffering and failure that was my life. Since then, I've started the experiment to see if I can live my life another way, and so far, the suffering and self acceptance has eased tremendously. I now have hope.

Albert Romeu

English Teacher

Apart from the fact that Ra represents the real Voice on which the whole system is based, I must say that even in the audio files, you can tell that the information is perfectly structured and prioritised for perfect understanding.

Amanda Michelle Jordan

Real Estate, Tech Sales

Ra and his teachings helped me realize I need to go back to my root feelings and intuition. 20 years ago if I just went with the flow and not force things to happen, the greatest opportunities would come to me. These teachings have helped me remember who I am.

Buffy Lee Bernstein

Personal Development Coach

Ra’s teachings and Human Design have provided me with so much insight into the reasoning behind my feelings and actions as well as situations that I’ve found myself navigating through. I’ve learned how to avoid experiences I no longer prefer by understanding my inner processes, decision making, and living my design and purpose.

Ana McCardell

Health Coach

I have studied esoteric knowledge for many years and experienced numerous spiritual moments. While ancient wisdom often emphasizes the importance of discernment in decision-making, it rarely offers personalized guidance. Ra provided the missing key—understanding how to make decisions that are uniquely correct for each individual. Discovering this aspect was life-changing for me.

Andrea Berg

Speaker, Mentor and Teacher

Learning directly from Ra has been a catalyst in my leadership journey. Ra has a way of cutting through the mind chatter and bringing you back to your own unique journey. Your own trip, as he would say. I cannot recommend listening to Ra lectures enough!! As a practitioner, I cannot imagine sharing this knowledge without direct experience of Ra’s teachings.

Aline Renée

Life Coach

I am learning through Ra's teachings the pure and raw approach to Human Design. Although every knowledge is depending on the interpretation of the apprentice, Ra´s is pure and full of passion. I strongly recommend to other people tap into the source to hear the vibration in his voice and to read the detail and in depth human design knowledge from the first messenger.

Andreea Nori Popa

Astrologer & HD PTL student

Ra empowered me in becoming my authentic self. I spent the pandemic listening to everything I could find from him and it saved me and my mind. It gave me direction, focus and a practical solution to my struggle. In a weird way, he was my best friend. Everything that I have learned from him is settling in, layer by layer, and now, 4 years later, I can see the flowers blooming. I have a better grip on my mind, I am focused on building self awarness everyday and I am making better decisions for my health.

Arkin Celik

Voice Actor, Director, Expression Coach

I’ve always been someone with a reasonably high conscious awareness and enjoyed exploring my own psyche and psychology of others from an early age. I thought there was nothing new I could learn about myself and was I wrong!!! I never even had an idea that “being invited” was the key to my satisfaction and success.

Angela Madalina McCreary

Tarot reader

When I discovered HD, I was battling post-partum depression. I was looking for ways to understand why my whole life crumbled. It is a fantastic system that will help you be the person you were always meant to be. Little by little, having someone like Ra Uru Hu guide you is quite extraordinary. I will be forever thankful that I came across this system that showed me WHO I AM. Thank you, Ra Uru Hu! Thank you for giving me myself back!

Brandon Douglass

Business Development

I discovered Human Design roughly 2 years ago and there is nothing more valuable in the space than Ra's direct teachings. His transmission of the knowledge is obviously uniquely his, but it is an order of magnitude more potent than from any other being simply because he is the source of it all. Without feeling the depth and clarity of Ra's understanding, I doubt I would have ever payed Human Design a second glance. Understanding my Type as a Projector was perhaps the most validating and liberating discovery of my life since I realized I was alive.

Cara Dempsey

Certified Life Coach, Podcast + YouTuber

Learning Human Design from Ra Uru Hu has transformed my life in the most incredible ways, and I highly recommend his teachings to anyone seeking deeper self-understanding and personal empowerment. In my own journey, applying Human Design principles has led to significant personal growth. It has helped me trust my intuition, improve my relationships, and find clarity in my life’s purpose. The sense of alignment and empowerment that comes from understanding and living my design is incomparable. If you are searching for a way to understand yourself better and navigate life’s challenges with greater ease, I wholeheartedly recommend exploring Ra’s teachings on Human Design.

Chelsea Stover

Gig Worker, Self-employed

Human Design, as taught by Ra Uru Hu, has profoundly impacted my life. The insights gained from his teachings have provided a clearer understanding of my inherent strengths and challenges, leading to a more authentic and fulfilling life experience.

Chih-Hung Chen

Freelancer

I am a Human Design learner and practitioner from Taiwan. I was fortunate to have access to the transcripts of Ra’s lectures at the very beginning of my Human Design studies. Since Ra received the entire system from the Voice and is the one who understands everything, we can see the completeness and consistency of this system through his teachings. From the perspective that knowledge must be regarded rigorously, Ra’s teaching content is undoubtedly irreplaceable.

Christine Lenihan

Tarot and Palm Reader

Embarking on the journey of learning Human Design has been nothing short of transformative for me. It has opened up a world of self-discovery and understanding that I never knew was possible. Human Design has given me the tools to navigate life with a newfound sense of clarity and purpose. It has helped me understand my unique blueprint and how to live in harmony with it. Whether it's recognizing my natural strengths, understanding my decision-making process, or appreciating the dynamics in my relationships, Human Design has provided a profound sense of alignment and peace. I am truly grateful for Ra's teachings.

Catherine Shine

Yoga Teacher

Human Design and Ra’s teaching have had a massive positive impact on how I now live my life. I first discovered Human Design in 2021 and have been entranced since. It has given me so many insights on how my design works. Knowing myself through Human Design and Ra’s teachings has given me the confidence to be myself without apology.

Aeliana Moon

Energetics and Embodiment Coach

Learning from Ra and his teachings directly has been awe inspiring. He delivers his insights with such directness and power. Hearing his voice alone is an experience. Listening to his transmissions about Human Design is transformative. You can feel it in the very cells of your body. His contemplations and teachings are amusing, clear, powerful, and thought provoking. Receiving Human Design from the source has been an honor and a treat to say the least.

Christopher Morris

Maintenance and engineering manager

I continuously come back to listen to Ra’s voice or read his words because I absorb Human Design information more and more on a deeper level. The Human Design System, through Ra’s direct teachings, has changed my life in so many ways that I can’t be grateful enough. I feel less stress, body has less ailments, mind is at ease, and I have more love for myself than I can remember having in previous years.

Brandon Hauser

Clinical Hypnotherapist, Realtor

When it comes to Ra and his teachings, every time I listen to his lectures, I feel as if my consciousness transcends to a higher plane of mental reality. It’s incredibly comforting and provides me with a sense of security to know Human Design and Ra’s teachings will be with me through the entirety of this life, and maybe beyond. I remain eternally grateful.
