Human Design Gate

A human design gate is also called a gene key and it carries with it information about our genetic makeup and spiritual identity. We can use these keys to understand our purpose, potential, destiny, gifts, and even our shadow qualities. Understanding this enables us to make the most out of life; know what kind of decisions to take, how we should behave in relationships, and how to achieve our goals and ambitions.

The Gene Keys offer a profound insight into the energetic pattern of life, allowing us to tap into its hidden potentials, align ourselves with the universal laws, and create a life that is in harmony with our true nature - which is what human design is all about. By exploring the 66 gene keys we can understand how to unlock our highest potential for evolution, and how to create a life of self-expression, fulfillment, and abundance.

The human design gate, or Gene Keys, can open up a wealth of opportunity for you to discover who you are and create an unlimited future all the while trusting your inner knowing.

“Devotion represents living life from the heart, which means risk is inherent. This is what makes it fun, especially with Lightness as its programming partner. Yet, one of the greatest lessons in life is the Gift of Commitment... which is about giving yourself fully to every experience. To be clear, there is only one true commitment, and it’s not to the future. How can we commit honestly to the future? It’s not here. Our energy is not available to respond to it now, so how can we be authentic? We can only know the truth in the now.” ~ The 64 Ways

The 29th Gene Key moves from the Shadow of Half-heartedness to the Siddhi of Devotion: Way of Commitment

The 29th Gene Key is the ability to fully devote to the present moment. The love of our hearts is liberated to embrace all living forms when we make a commitment to letting go of our expectations and judgments. This gene key understanding is in how you start, so to speak. Your future is not created by your acts per se, but rather by the energy that drives them. Nothing in life is worthwhile unless it is undertaken with complete dedication NOT half heartedness. No matter how much you like it or dislike it, if you try anything half-heartedly you might as well give up.

Shadow of Half-Heartedness: Life Half-Lived

The 29th shadow, which represents half-heartedness, is brought on by commitment anxiety, mostly because we have no idea where our choices will take us. Most frequently, in this gene key, it happens when we are not truthful with ourselves or others in half heartedness. Because we are not living our lives to the fullest, at that point our life energy withers and we postpone it. We're missing the moment because we're so preoccupied with trying to think forward.

Half-heartedness frequently prevents us from fulfilling our highest destiny, which is to offer ourselves entirely and expectantly to every experience. Particularly in the connections we have. Imagine setting your trust in hearing the answer "Yes" from deep within yourself before anything else.

Gift of Commitment: Opening Up to Good Fortune

True commitment entails a firm belief in our current situation and an ongoing dedication to the here and now, totally devoted. This entails inner turning and internal slowing. Always make commitment decisions in the NOW. After all, how is it really feasible to make a future commitment? Since the future is not yet arrived, we lack the energy to react to it right away. Only in the here and now can truth be known.

Commitment has a positive vibe that makes it seem as though nature is in charge of our fate and guiding us - we are not just making luck. At this point, we start to realize that to commit also means to give up. Every time we give unconditional love to someone in the highest good, our frequency increases. We exert more pressure on the heart of creation the more we love in this way. All of our love eventually causes the time-space continuum to break down, which leads to the unexplainable occurrence of subject and object merging into Oneness.

Siddhi of Devotion: Tantric Contagion

The sincere understanding that love is the fundamental nature of everything is devotion. It involves perfecting the skill of responding to non-love with love. One of the finest teachings on relationships is also contained in this Siddhi. It is a surrender of the lover into the adored and is closely related to the essence of Tantra. Imagine giving your entire attention to loving your own heart, the lover that lives inside of you, and fusing with the beloved so that all that is left is love.

A genuine Heart is a prized discovery. Spending time with your heart is like discovering a lovely old chair in a remote area of a forest; good fortune. What could be more crucial than taking some time to unwind and marvel at such an amazing place?

Contemplation: Saying ‘Yes’ to Life

Too frequently, our minds lead us to say yes to too many things, leaving our bodies exhausted and pleading for mercy. Therefore, who or what requires your greatest commitment? I want you to take a moment to think and then question yourself:

When you say ‘yes’ to others, are you really saying ‘no’ to yourself?


* Where are you over-committed in your life? And where are you lacking commitment; half heartedness?

* Notice if what you are saying yes to in life, is truly serving your heart, or not?

* And, how can you be sure that the commitments you do make are in harmony with your heart, mind and soul?

What if learning to say no, honoring key 29, allows you to say “yes” to what your heart loves the most?

* What can you do to fully trust your inner ‘yes’ in this now moment with your human design?

* Are you willing celebrate, honor, and appreciate all of your successes in life? Even the most painful ones. . .
