The 36 Human Design Channel Archetypes

"Nothing is more profound than the Channel itself." – Ra Uru Hu

We agree. It's why we starting offering "nicknames" to the channels as we worked with clients so they could understand and internalize them, accelerating their growth and transformation.

When one of our clients had difficulty grasping the energetic essence of The Channel of Transitoriness, a Design of a Jack of all trades, we started using the phrase "FOMO" (fear of missing out), and eventually created a channel archetype called "THE THRILL-SEEKER.”

We also did this for the Channel of Struggle, A Design of Stubbornness — a description that can frighten or offend those who are new to Human Design from going deeper — creating a channel archetype called "THE WARRIOR."

Then we did it for the Channel of Surrender, A Design of being a Transmitter, because what does that even mean? For this we created a channel archetype called "THE POWERBROKER."

When we saw how much more easily we could move around a chart in a consult or coaching session, and how these archetypes were helping us activate and internalize the traditional Human Design names and keynotes by creating a helpful context, we realized the real power of these archetypes — to help Human Design students, experimenters, and practitioners accelerate their learning and comprehension of the quantum in their design.

This podcast provides insight into the 36 Human Design Channel Archetypes — what inspired us, how they evolved, and how to use them alongside the traditional Human Design channel names and descriptions.
