What Are the Biggest Problems With Human Design?
Human Design can raise some eyebrows. The problem with Human Design is that the system goes against a lot of what we are raised to believe, “Buckle down and get the work done. “ “You just need to get out there and make yourself heard!” For those of us that have tried everything to succeed only to fail time after time, Human Design brings a relief so deep that our souls can finally relax. How can a system that goes so against the grain, work?
So you have learned your type, your strategy and your defined and undefined channels but something still seems off. The biggest problem with Human Design is the way that some people approach it.
There are some resources out there that don’t take the best approach to Human Design. Some try to treat Human Design as black and white or even a rigid set of rules.
Quantum Human Design sets out to empower you through your chart. After a reading with a QHD coach, you should walk away feeling empowered and ready to move through the world with ease.

Human Design Is Not A Rigid Set Of Rules
Most people like rules. Even rule-breakers need to know what exactly they are breaking! Human beings struggle with ambiguity and most of us would be lost without a to-do list. Human Design is not a set of rules and this can be a struggle for those coming to Human Design just wanting to be told what they need to do in order to succeed. Worse, those who attempt to whittle down the immensity of Human Design to a simple list lose valuable information that we need. This creates a problem with Human Design as it loses our ability to experiment and explore possibilities.
Human design is a system of archetypes similar to Astrology. Every person experiences their design in a different way, with a multitude of variables affecting how each individual experiences their journey. Think of Human Design as a roadmap. You can get to the destination however you want, but there is going to be a more efficient way to get there.
Human Design is another tool for developing self-awareness just like astrology, or a personality test. The challenge can be that we need to approach this information with awareness and the humility to reflect on ourselves.
Human Design Takes Work To Implement
Human Design takes work. Many try to use their intellect to understand Human Design. Intellect is great, but Human Design shows us that our mind is not our own. Our mind is subject to conditioning from the world around us and we must learn to trust our inner authority as we move through our lives. The problem with Human Design is that when we try to understand it through the mind we lose what makes Human Design unique namely that everyone will experience their design in a different way.
Experiencing your design requires you to go out into the world and experiment. Are you a Projector (Orchestrator)? Try to sit through an entire meeting at work without offering an opinion, until you are asked. If you aren’t asked, keep your thoughts to yourself. Are you a Manifestor (Initiator) who is always wondering why no one has asked you to go hiking? Go out on your own and see what happens.
A problem with Human Design is that we want instant results but Human Design is a journey. You have to start slow and get lost a couple of times. There is no end to this journey and your path requires you to look at yourself through a critical lens. If something is not working for you it is up to you to use your design to find out why. There are no black-and-white answers.
Human Design is here to teach us how to make decisions that are in alignment with our unique design. The challenge with this is that it is a framework that goes against our social framework. You will come face to face with some discomfort as you begin to live from your Strategy and Authority. Trusting our internal guidance is not something we are taught to do and it takes a lot of practice to understand our truths.
Human Design will change you, but it won’t change the world that you live in (Well not yet anyway!). We live in a world with structures and systems that are designed to homogenize those who live in it. These systems affect us and influence how we move through the world.
Even if you are living your design in the best way possible you will be influenced by your social world. Give yourself the grace to recognize when you slide back into patterns that no longer serve you.
There Is Not Just One Way To Use Human Design In Your Life
If you only ever followed your Human Design type and strategy, you could change your entire life. There is not just one way to use Human Design in your life, and you are in control over how much or how little you integrate Human Design into your day-to-day life.

Human Design Is Not a Personality Type Test
Human Design is not a personality test like Myers-Briggs or Enneagram system. Personality tests are not without merit, but they are created in and for the mind. These tests, along with manifesting and Law of Attraction types, don’t teach us how to work with our designs. In fact, many of these programs further condition us in a way that is contrary to our strategies.
Human Design is a comprehensive and rich body of knowledge that includes astronomy, physics, microbiology, and history. In the context of Human Design, type refers to an absolute value that can be seen on a bodygraph. You will often see type used interchangeably with aura type because our types are representations of our bio-energetic field.
Human Design Is Not A Religion
One of the problems with Human Design is that there are some out there who treat Human Design as a religion. Human Design is not dogma, a moral code, nor does it contain rules. Human Design is a system that shows us how unique we all are and what may be the right thing for one person may be very wrong for the next. More importantly, seeking an outside authority goes against all of Human Design’s knowledge.
Those who are new to Human Design will ask their coaches, “Can I do this?” or “Is this okay?” and there is no answer to those questions. If you follow your strategy and authority you will experience what you are supposed to experience.
Human Design Won’t Tell You Exactly What To Do In Every Aspect Of Your Life
Quantum Human Design founder Karen Curry Parker explains the biggest problems with Human Design in this video.
Human Design Is Not A Replacement For Your Own Inner Wisdom
Some will find Human Design because they are seeking answers. Should I take this job? Should I marry this person? Why am I so bitter/angry/frustrated all the time? Many are looking for something that tells them what to do.
From a Human Design point of view, this search is driven by our conditioned minds because we are conditioned to ignore our inner wisdom and seek answers outside of ourselves. Human Design is not a replacement for your inner wisdom and it is definitely not a quick fix. Human Design teaches that real growth happens through deconditioning and relearning how to trust our inner authorities.
Human Design Is Not A Magic Bullet
Getting the most out of Human Design really requires you to take a look at yourself and decide why you are in this place of reflection. Are you unhappy? Are you struggling financially? Do your relationships always fail?
Psychics, mediums, and tarot readers are so popular because people want instant results. They want a magic bullet for their struggles. They want someone to tell them what to do. The problem with Human Design is that people try to use it like a Magic 8 ball. Should I take this job? Yes, or No?
Being told what to do, ultimately, does not serve you. The best tools are the ones that teach you how to rely on yourself and your own efficacy to find answers. You already have the tools you need when you allow yourself to let go of what you have been told to do. After all, being told what to do hasn’t worked so well for you, has it?
