  • Christine Spicer on deconditioning, teaching in aura, definition and undefined centers, and more
    Jun 26 2024

    In this episode, we are speaking with Christine Spicer, a 6/2 Reflector and founder of Human Design New Zealand. With over a decade of experience as an IHDS certified Analyst and Teacher, Christine shares her entry into Human Design and her exploration of transits and deconditioning, especially through spending a month entirely alone. We discuss her approach to teaching in aura drawing from her expertise as both a facilitator and leadership coach. Our conversation touches on the beauty of the undefined Centers, how definition holds energy or conditioning in place, and the importance of remembering to prioritize experience over theory. Christine's wisdom and significant contribution to the Human Design community in New Zealand offer a supportive perspective for those navigating their own journey in these transformative times.

  • Maria Mateus on astrology as a language, life as a journey and the birth chart as our itinerary, and much more
    Feb 7 2024

    Maria Mateus is a 6/3 Emotional Manifesting Generator on the Left Angle Cross of Duality. She has been studying and practicing astrology since her teens and has recently come off the roof in her 6th Line process. Maria has a BA in Psychology and one of a handful of MA degrees in Astrology from Kepler College. Her research has culminated in a deep understanding of astrology as a language apart from its common use as a kind of personality typing system.

    In this episode, we discuss some of the key areas of focus in her work including the birth chart as a story of becoming, life as a journey, and the chart as our itinerary, polarities, and the compensatory nature of signs. We also touch on timing and the turning of the birth chart, and explore how the spiritually “good” charts are the challenging ones, along with several other common misconceptions in astrology. We hope you enjoy the conversation.
