The Powers of the Planets in Human Design
The planets do far more than place gates in a chart—they reveal different aspects of how our design operates.
In this episode of Human Design: Aligned Living, Amy explores the unique influence of each planetary placement, from the Sun and Earth's powerful impact on our core expression and stability through to the Moon, Nodes, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.
Discover how each planet contributes a different layer to the Human Design story, influencing everything from motivation, communication, values, growth, responsibility, and intuition through to life's deeper lessons and mysteries.
Amy also shares the statement framework used inside the Human Design: Aligned Living course, demonstrating how planetary placements can be translated into practical, personalised insights that connect directly to the centres and themes within a bodygraph.
Whether you're new to Human Design or looking to deepen your understanding of your chart, this episode offers a practical approach to decoding the planetary influences that shape your experience.
