Each week, the sun moves through specific gates in the Human Design system (similar to the astrological zodiac), activating certain…vibes, if you will. With Human Design, it’s a full-body healing experience. Think of the weekly themes like energetic spotlights revealing what we’re meant to be paying attention to.
As you read this, notice what your body does. Do you soften or tense? Is something landing with relief or resistance? Understanding the energies at play isn’t about consuming information – it’s meant to be felt inside you, creating a deeper connection to who you are authentically.
May
“April showers bring May flowers”, right? ‘Tis the season for MILLIONS of ideas, or lack thereof. The beginning of May brings an energy that drops you deeper into knowing what seeds you want to sow for the months to come. You may feel like you have a faucet turned on with new directions that inspire you, or it could feel like a dead stop. If you’re feeling divinely inspired by a new offer, idea or brand direction, write it all down! Notice which ones create a feeling of expansion versus urgency and pressure.
If you’re feeling directionless, don’t be hard on yourself. This is information from your body asking you to give your nervous system safety before movement. Find ways to open up to what your body is asking of you and allow yourself to be guided (this is my expertise, so if you need help here I recommend you check out my podcast, The No BS Human Design Podcast).
If it feels like you have too many ideas to act on, don’t worry – the middle of May will help you clear out any excess clutter. Sustainability comes with simplicity. Stop over-offering! It confuses people. Let go of what feels complex, especially things that take up too much of your calendar space, and focus on the ONE thing that gives you the greatest excitement to do.
Now, May 18th is a special day. Not because of the energetic forecast, but because it’s my birthday. 😉 But really…the gift from the energy around my birthday is my favorite, because it teaches us just HOW unique we really are! How can you go even deeper into your authentic voice and expression with your work? Is it in how you talk about your work, how you position yourself, or communicate your value? What feels a little edgy but will give others the permission they need to stand in their uniqueness themselves? That’s the magic of this week!
So you’ve been tapping into your new visionary ideas, realigning with what’s true and exciting for you, and learning how to express it. Now how can you ground into the wisdom that you’re bringing to the world? How can you be right here, right now, feeling alive and anchored into the decisions you’ve made thus far?
I know as a Manifesting Generator myself, I tend to get distracted by the next fun idea…but the REAL magic comes from trusting in what you’ve built, knowing that simplicity and repetition bring success. If that sounds like you, it’s a great time to put together a routine to keep you accountable for your goals. Find structure to support your nervous system and crowded thoughts. Block times every week on your calendar, write them on the white board, whatever it takes to remind yourself to keep going back to that vision, one task at a time.
June
Change is hard, I know! And sometimes change is the exact medicine we need. These new creative directions you’re feeling pulled toward are going to require a next level of you. Are you ready to meet that challenge? Trust that every small change you’re making is leading to massive progress, even if you can’t see it yet. June gives you the momentum to choose the change that supports your evolution!
For a lot of us, that change has to do with our self-worth. It’s time to step into being the leader that you were born to be. Hell, you wouldn’t be reading this magazine right now if you weren’t here to bring your gifts to the world. What patterns do you have that are coming from a place of low self-esteem? Are you seeking to have control where you need to surrender? These patterns are likely going to surface around the second week of June, so get your notebook ready and write those limiting beliefs down! You’ll have an easier time speaking from the heart and discerning what really needs to be said if you’re able to reframe your thought patterns, which is exactly what your community needs from you.
If you’re feeling a little whiplash-y, you’re not alone. Your business is in a season of renewal and realignment. That takes excitement, then challenge, then frustration, then hope again. It’s all a part of your inner and outer evolution, so don’t get discouraged. The end of June is a time to soften into stillness, noticing where you’ve been resisting the ebbs and flows, and finding the harmony that is the throughline within it. Instead of trying to bounce between all of the things, where are you the most grounded and focused? This is the pause to recalibrate, not burn it all down. Allow the end of this month to root you into intentional next steps. Not from a place of control, but as a leader whose mere presence supports others.
July
Remember good ol’ 2025? When we, as a collective, spent an entire year shedding what wasn’t serving us anymore? Guess what July has in store for us? Don’t worry – just for a short while. We can’t continue to grow if we don’t revisit what’s working and what isn’t!
July kicks off with the challenge to look at what feels purposeful…and what really doesn’t. It may not be easy, but it’s necessary to step into alignment with who you’ve become since the start of the year. So get cozy with a cup of tea (or my fave, cacao) and a notebook, creating intentional space to audit what you’ve got going on, and what’s really worth building to you right now. Letting your body settle into a space allows insight to land differently. Bonus points to you if you also take note of all your wins (big and small) so far!
After that first week of July forcing you to look at what you need to say bye-bye to, you’re supported by a wave of energy to begin (or continue on) projects with intention. The things you let go of the week before allow you to release some pressure so you can lean into the offers, content, or brand direction with clearer precision and communication. Speaking of communication, mid-July is a GREAT time to practice writing your story, speaking your truth, and sharing from your lived experience. Use the energy of the throat that’s provided for you right now to hone in on what your message is with the projects that mean so much to you!
This month is where you learn how to become the voice of influence. The voice that leads by invitation, not force. Invitation energy comes from a calm, regulated body. Force energy comes from fear. You’ve spent months understanding what feels true and desirable for you to put into the world, and MORE months refining what you’re building and realigning with intention. The work you’ve done in slowing down and reflection is going to show here. If what you’re building is resonating with your community, you’re going to see it! If it feels like crickets, well…perhaps you need to take that stillness and realignment advice I’ve been giving you more seriously.
August
After all the reflection, refinement, and realignment you’ve been moving through, August isn’t asking you to do more. It’s asking you to integrate. Letting your body rest inside the more aligned decisions you’ve been making.
The beginning of the month opens with a reminder that rest isn’t a reward. It’s a requirement for both your personal and business wellness. This is a powerful moment to pause (yes, again), zoom out, and reflect on everything you’ve learned about yourself so far this year. What patterns are you finally ready to leave behind? What wisdom have you earned from this journey of learning to trust your body and your energy? Give yourself permission to retreat and take in how much you’ve done!
As we move further into August, the energy transitions from inner reflection to how you (now more in tune with your body) move with others. Your sense of direction is now going to come through connection, not control. This is going to be a test of your leadership skills – how can you lead through collaboration and trust that you don’t have to hold everything on your own? Lean into curiosity as the overthinking comes up, not criticism. Asking the right questions (to yourself and to others) can realign everything.
Then comes the commitment test. What are you truly available to say yes to? Do you know the difference between obligated commitment and true devotion? Where have you been holding back because you’re afraid of what full commitment might require of you? I know for me, true commitment has been one of my hardest lessons. Going all in is scary, but when you trust it’s guiding you to the next right step, that trust becomes the fuel to keep going.
Late August opens the heart. Seriously. Be prepared for honesty, intimacy, and relationship dynamics to pop up. You’re going to see just how open you are to deep connection and collaboration during this time, and it’s important that you practice coming from truth instead of a protective mechanism. Let yourself be seen without performing. If emotions feel close to the surface, this is a sign that you’re evolving. Use tools to help your nervous system calm, like Emotional Freedom Technique (tapping), breathwork, or dancing.
August reminds you that you’re not meant to do it all alone. No human is meant to live without true connection. All the work you’ve put in this season thus far has been recalibrating your relationship to work, rest, support, and community. You’re reading this because you believe in your business being an extension of your wellbeing. Lean into the emotional evolution that is the journey of building something meaningful without abandoning your alignment and spark along the way.
