FAQs
How does Human Design differ from Astrology?
Human Design is based on some aspects of astrology, namely the planetary influeces that were present at the time of your birth.
In Human Design, the planetary influences 88 days before your birth are also very important and part of your design.
Like astrology, the energies of these planets are imprinted into your design, and have a huge influence on your life.
Some of the planteray themes are similar and others are interpreted differently.
Can your Human Design be "good" or "bad"?
Each one of us on this planet has a unique Human Design, with different configurations depending on when and where we were born.
There is no “good” or “bad” Human Design. We actually have all of the chart and energies, but some are more consistent or variable than others.
Each archetypal energy in your chart is neutral, and can be manifested on a spectrum of high to low expression, or as in the Gene Keys, a shadow, gift or siddhi expression.
Some aspects could be more challenging than others, but that all depends on you and how you experience and your own life’s journey.
Can my Human Design change?
Unlike other personality assessment tests like the Myers-Briggs, Enneagram, 16 Personalities, your Human Design never changes. It is set on the day and time your were born.
Does Human Design tell me what career to undertake or who to have relationships with?
Human Design is a tool to help you know yourself better, become more consciously aware of your energy, your purpose, your strengths and weaknesses, your potential challenges and and how you best relate to others.
It will not tell you what you have to do as a career or job, or what kind of person to have a relationship with or not. But it will certainly help you tune into your inner wisdom, intuition and authority to take the best path forward in your life, and to become more aware and understanding about the way you relate to other people.
Does Human Design go against God or certain religions?
Human Design is not religious or pushes anyone to believe in any sort of deity or follow any special rituals.
Because it does contain aspects of astrology and other ancient mystical traditions, like the Kabbalah and Hindu Chakra system, I can see how some people may find it difficult to explore and embrace if they are or have been raised in a more conservative Christian or other religion.
I was raised as a Catholic, and still consider myself a believer in God and Christ. The way I see Human Design, is that it is God’s incredible divine design of each one of us, giving us our own unique way of being and purpose in the world, which when it comes together with other people’s unique design and purpose, can create incredible things.
What are the Gene Keys?
The Gene Keys are basically a deeper exploration of certain parts of your Human Design.
It takes on a more contemplative, slower and gentle approach than Human Design, with profound explorations of some of the gates which comprose your Gene Key Profile.

What is Homeopathy and how does it work?
In a nutshell, homeopathy is a holistic, individualised and gentle form of medicine that stimulates the body’s own ability to heal. It sees ill-health as symptoms of imbalance in the body and looks at the way the person is uniquely expressing these symptoms. Homeopathic treatments are thus tailor-made for each individual; they are holistic, treating the whole body, mind and spirit.
Homeopathy is not the same as herbal medicine. We do use remedies made from herbs and plants, but these are prepared differently to herbal medicines. Homeopaths also use remedies made from the mineral and animal kingdom, as well as more intangible substances, such as x-ray and sunlight.

Can I still use homeopathy if I'm taking medication?
Of course! Homeopathy will not interfere with conventional medication, and can be taken alongside. You may even find that homeopathy will help you leave your medication behind.
Some medications will cause homeopathy to work slower or less effectively. Sometimes these are suppressing symptoms or causing other symptoms that make things worse for you. I will work with whatever your situation is the best I can, and I will never ask you to not take your medication.
Can I take homeopathy while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Yes, yes, yes! Homeopathy is safe for pregnant women and babies, young and old, and everything in between! It’s even safe for animals and plants!
What are essences? Are the they same as essential oils?
Essences are not the same thing as essential oils.
Essences are vibrational healing remedies made from flowers, gems, minerals, animals and even special places. All these things have a unique energy pattern and healing quality, which can be transferred into a liquid medium by placing the healthy substance into a bowl of pure water, leaving it to potentise in the sun. The infusion that is produced by this process is the essence of that substance, and carries its healing energy.
The first and most well-known essences were the flower essences developed by Dr. Edward Bach in the 1920’s in the UK. Nowadays there are many other essences from all over the world, including Australian Bush Flower Essences, Alaskan Essences, Indigo Essences, Wild Earth Animal Essences, Bailey Essences, and many more.
