But this small anecdote is a good opportunity to talk and reflect on the correlation between our Human Design and the environmental educational circumstances that we go through in our upbringing. There is an interesting meeting point between Human Design and therapy that hasn’t been fleshed out enough over the years and is worth paying attention to. In the video, I explore how Picasso’s life and chart provide a fascinating example of how environmental circumstances shape our development. Human Design reveals our innate potential, but much like the growth of an oak tree from an acorn, our external conditions—like upbringing, education, and environmental influences—have a profound effect on who we become. Picasso’s chart shows a strong character fixation formed during his developmental stage, specifically around the root center, which manifested as vengeful and bitter emotional defenses in his relationships and career. This illustrates the power of our conditioning and how it interplays with our energetic blueprint.I argue that there is great potential in combining Human Design and psychotherapy. Human Design offers a deep understanding of our intrinsic energy and potential, while therapy helps us unravel the character defenses and fixations built over time in response to our upbringing. Together, these perspectives allow for a more holistic approach to personal growth, helping us to disidentify from our defenses and return to our core potential as outlined in our Bodygraph.Book a therapy session with me ➞Love and Emotions Through Human Design: A 5-Week Journey into the Heart of Connection with Dirk NellensFirst and foremost, thank you so much for the continuous support and thoughtful feedback you've shared.
