Who created Human Design?
Human Design was created by Ra Uru Hu, born Alan Robert Krakower, who reported receiving the system over eight days and nights in Ibiza, Spain, in January 1987. He described the experience as a transmission from what he called "the Voice," which became the foundation of the system.
Ra Uru Hu synthesized the material into a teaching that combined Western astrology, the I Ching, Kabbalah's Tree of Life, and the Hindu-Brahmin chakra system into a single chart — the BodyGraph. Since its founding, the system has spread through independent teachers and schools worldwide rather than a single certifying academic body.
