In this episode, I sat down with professional Human Design Analyst and Astrologer, John Cole. Whether you’re just starting to understand Human Design, or you’re looking for a grounded approach, this episode is just what you need. John brings us back to basics and explains what Human Design is, where it comes from, and how we can use it as a practical tool in our lives. We talked about how Human Design and Astrology is not a belief system or another dogma you have to learn and mold yourself to, they are tools that can help us to grow into our unique self, our true self. John broke down what each auric type means and what some of the very first things you can start to work with are that can have the most impact in your life like your specific strategy, authority, and profile.

I had a foundations reading with John and I could not recommend it more. You can learn more about John, Human Design, and book a 1-1 reading at https://metamorphichumandesign.com/.

More about John Cole:

I was introduced to astrology at a young age by my mother, an astrologer who began her studies in order to better understand her two boys. At the age of 22, after an initial period of reluctance towards the subject, I agreed to do a consultation with a professional astrologer. I was so impressed by the depth of insight shared with me during the session that I began a study of astrology, taking classes, and reading just about every book and article I could get my hands on.

My explorations started with modern psychological astrology and led me into an extended period of exploring Jyotish/Indian Astrology until I was introduced to the ancient Western traditions in Hellenistic and Medieval astrology. The practicality and clarity of the traditional forms of astrology provided a more solid grounding in astrological technique – and at the same time, I continued to explore more modern forms like Uranian/Symmetrical Astrology.

In early 2015, I was introduced to the Human Design System by a friend and fellow astrologer. My first reaction to seeing the system was something along the lines of “Oh, no – what is this? Another system to learn?”. I discovered that in Human Design, my auric type is a “Projector” which very specifically described how my energy was designed to work along with many patterns and characteristics of my experience that no other system had identified or had an explanation.

I began experimenting with the system daily and soon booked a reading with a professional Human Design Analyst which carried quite an impact, driving the knowledge in deeper. I entered into formal Human Design training and enrolled in the program to become a professional analyst. I completed the three and half year program in December of 2018 to become a Professional Analyst certified by the International Human Design School. Since then I have continued my studies and training with the Degree Differentiation Program (DDP) which combines the Primary Health System (PHS) and Rave Psychology, as well as teacher training for Living Your Design and Rave ABCs.

As a Projector energy type with over two decades of astrological study and full immersion in the Human Design System, I feel well prepared to meet the needs of my clients wishing to experiment with this knowledge. I meet each person as the unique individual that they are, knowing that they are in fact the expert on their own life. My role in a consultation is to share this system in a practical and straightforward way, initiating the client into a deeper relationship with their true-self and inner authority.
