In this episode, I talk to Shannon Walton. Shannon is a Human Design consultant, transit journey guide, and creator of the Motion Chart. Her work bridges, astrology, magick, mysticism, and liberation practices for imagining a new world.

In this reading, we discuss the origins of Human Design, how Shannon sought to understand the system through understanding the individual systems that were colonized to create Human Design, and how we can access deeper understandings of esoteric systems of knowledge through embodied experimentation.
