Of the many questions I receive from my students of the Human Design System®, this one can be answered best by Ra Uru Hu, in his own words:
“The people that come to Design usually have a background with esoteric knowledge, such as Astrology, the I Ching, the Tarot and it is essential to recognize this and how important it is to see what that is really all about. Synthesis is a product of our time. It’s something that has been around for about a hundred years. It has gone on with globalization and how things operate on our planet, this ability to move around and share what we learn from all the cultures around the world. When I look at Western Astrology, the Kabbala or the Tarot, I see that it is limited to a specific culture or group of cultures, and that it was their way to make sense of the totality. And each of these ancient sciences I had to deal with in my process, it became clear to me, are the core of a fundamental revelation of value. But synthesis is something totally different. Each of these wisdom schools are aspects integrated into the synthesis, and it does not diminish their value….The Bodygraph® is the same for everyone universally all over the world – even if they don’t speak the same language – they understand what they are looking at. Seeing a Bodygraph® is like coming into a town you have never been to before. You come in and all you have is a map. Because this is the map of a human, it tells you the nature of this being.”
In a small booklet called “GENE KEYS – AN INTRODUCTION TO THE HUMAN DESIGN SYSTEM” by Richard Rudd (2002), he states:
“The Human Design System® is a pure synthesis of the latest scientific discoveries and the wisdom of the ancients, and like any synthesis, Human Design is far greater than the sum of its parts. On the one side we have Quantum Physics, Astronomy, Biochemistry, and Genetics, on the other the four great esoteric systems of the world, Astrology, the Hindu chakra system, the Judaic Kabbala and the Chinese I Ching. It’s an alchemist’s dream”.
“Human Design is neither a science nor occult, but a synthesis. Synthesis moves fast because it is far more than the sum of its part. I also requires assessment and experimentation, but on a personal level. The natural laws that lie at the root of Human Design rest on discoveries that science has not yet made. Until we understand gravity, time and space fully, science is unable to prove that there is a connection between the time of our birth and the imprinting of our behavior patterns. The ultimate test of Human Design lies in whether or not it is practical. If it makes a difference in our lives, than its purpose is served.”
When you learn to understand what the Human Design Bodygraph® offers, with its many layers of individual differentiations, you will see this synthesis is something totally new for us to take advantage of, or not . Ra would always say don’t believe me, try the experiment for yourself.
