The New Science of Astrology: Discover Who You Really Are
By Dr Karen Parker
Your Personal Blueprint for Living Authentically!
Human Design Charts
Created in the late 1900s by visionary teacher Ra Uru Hu, Human Design has emerged as the “modern evolution of Astrology” and represents where “ancient wisdom meets contemporary understanding.” By combining your exact birth information—date, time, and place—Human Design generates a unique personal chart that reveals distinctive character qualities and life directions based on this cosmic alignment.
A Human Design chart provides remarkably precise insights into your authentic self, offering guidance and wisdom for navigating life’s obstacles with greater ease. Historically, these charts required specialized practitioners to decode their complex symbolism and translate the information into accessible language. This barrier to understanding existed for decades—until this breakthrough book arrived.
About This Book:
In Understanding Human Design: The New Science of Astrology: Discovering Who You Really Are, author Dr. Karen Curry Parker demystifies the often overwhelming Human Design chart using clear, straightforward explanations. In it, you’ll explore every aspect of Human Design, starting with fundamental chart components and progressing to the more sophisticated revelations the system provides, all presented in an engaging and digestible format.
You’ll discover how each line, connection, and symbol corresponds to specific personality characteristics that can profoundly impact your daily experience, with an expert mentor guiding your journey. Your individual Human Design chart illuminates your natural gifts, areas for growth, and most crucially, your untapped possibilities.
[Image of a chart, flush right] Your personal Human Design Chart can reveal your strengths, your weaknesses, and perhaps most importantly, your potential. Your chart will help you anticipate recurring patterns that may emerge in your life journey, and welcome the opportunity for personal growth as you discover your unique Human Design approach.
With Dr. Parker’s expertise and wisdom from this book as your companion, you’ll discover a roadmap for transcending these challenges by simply following the guidance embedded within your Human Design blueprint—your personal “instruction manual” for living.
Who Should Read This Book
This book is perfect for anyone who feels like traditional approaches to success and personal growth haven’t quite worked for them. If you’ve tried following conventional wisdom about career advancement, relationships, or life goals but still feel frustrated, exhausted, or unfulfilled, Human Design might offer the missing piece of your puzzle.
You’ll especially benefit from this book if you’re someone who suspects you might be wired differently from others—perhaps you’re not motivated by the same things that drive your peers, or you find yourself energized by different activities than what society typically promotes.
Whether you’re a spiritual seeker looking to understand yourself on a deeper level, a professional feeling burned out in the wrong career, or simply someone curious about what makes you uniquely you, this book provides practical tools for authentic living.
The book is also valuable for those interested in improving their relationships by understanding how different people are designed to operate. Parents, managers, coaches, and anyone who works closely with others will gain insights into why people respond differently to the same situations and how to honor those differences.
This book provides a solid foundation in the principles of Human Design and the Human Design chart, making it an ideal starting point for those new to the system or with some prior knowledge who wish to deepen their understanding of how all the elements work together to create their unique energetic blueprint.
What You’ll Learn From This Book
This comprehensive guide takes you step-by-step through understanding your personal Human Design chart, which serves as your “energetic blueprint.” You’ll discover your unique energy type—whether you’re a Manifestor, Manifesting Generator, Generator, Projector, or Reflector—and learn how each type is designed to make decisions and create success in their own distinctive way.
The book teaches you to read your own chart by exploring the nine energy centers (similar to chakras) and understanding which ones are defined (consistent) versus open (variable) in your design. You’ll learn about the sixty-four gates that correspond to I Ching hexagrams and how they create channels of energy that shape your personality traits and life themes.
More practically, you’ll gain tools for recognizing when you’re operating authentically versus when you’re being influenced by societal conditioning that doesn’t fit your design. The book offers strategies for working with your natural energy patterns rather than against them, enabling you to make decisions based on your inner authority rather than external pressure.
By the end, you’ll understand how to create wealth, health, and relationships in ways that align with your true nature, potentially transforming areas of your life where you’ve struggled by trying to fit into approaches that weren’t designed for your unique energetic makeup.
