January 2023 Podcast

Welcome to January 2023, here is my first podcast of the year.

This month, I’m talking about: –

• the problems and difficulties that can occur when we experience a dominant or abusive aura merge


• the influence (and Human Design Chart) of the January 2023 Full Moon


• and how Soul Stories (past life stories) can affect us karmically until we clear them.

The January 2023 Full Moon Human Design Chart

This full moon January 2023 Human Design Chart is for my area of the world, about when the full moon was at its’ peak in Wichita, KS.

Note that the full moon was at its apogee this month.  Due to the full moon’s oval-shaped orbit, this is the furthest point it can be on its orbit around the Earth.

This chart also shows the Human Design Chart of somebody born on this month’s Full Moon at 18:08 Central Time in Wichita, KS.

The full moon was magnifying the energy of this Human Design Type, an Ego-Projected Projector.

Aura Merges from the perspective of Human Design

As a Manifestor, sometimes my very strong energetic field can clash with that of a Projector!  Projectors in Human Design are seen as the new leaders of our race.

They are very skilled at reaching into others’ energy and understanding their ideas, thoughts, emotions, and awareness.

This can be a wonderful thing if the person in question has good intentions.  It can be a very difficult experience for everyone around a Projector if they are dominant or controlling!

At present, Projectors are thought to make up about 20% of the human population.  Manifestors (like me) are thought to make up about 9% of the population.

The moon’s energy this month was very penetrating

In this particular case, the full moon was magnifying penetrating energy (note the Incarnation Cross or Life Purpose on the chart, RAX Penetration 4).

People with this Life Purpose can reach into others’ energy in almost a shocking way, sometimes revealing so much about the other person that it can be distressing or overwhelming.

This chart also demonstrates a defined heart or will chakra (the little pink triangle).  People with this center can be very forceful or simply feel very ‘big’ when they walk into a room.

Tony Robbins is one example of someone with a defined heart or will center.

Manifestor Types have up until now been the leaders of humanity when living their Human Design fully.  Meeting someone else with a strong aura like this may result in clashes!

Also, for me, I have both the 12-22 channel of Openness defined, and the 35-36 Channel of Versatility defined.  So Gate 22 and Gate 36 were defined by the full moon’s energy.

This meant that both these channels were activated for me and almost taken over by the full moon’s penetrating energy.  I didn’t enjoy it at all!

Let me know how your full moon experience was this month.  Perhaps you found the January 2023 full moon energy useful?  Everyone’s Human Design is so different.

If you find this interesting and enlightening and want to know more, I offer Human Design Readings.
