Empower Your Design 2026

The motivation stems from a commitment to substance. In a wellness industry often saturated with charm and aesthetics, where social performance and "looking" healed are prioritized, Empower Your Design was founded on the belief that true transformation requires looking at your truth in any shape or form.

This event is not designed to placate your ego into more occupation with new workshops and trendy modalities, thinking you are making progress but you are actually just avoiding yourself.

This event will not make unrealistic promises to satisfy the inner healing junky.
Our goal is to break the cycle of distraction from internal realization.

This event is motivated to provide the "Aha!" moments that only occur when you stop hiding behind the polite facade of false spiritual healing and start being present with your actual design.

Ultimately, the drive is to empower you to become your own highest authority.

By aligning with the natural timing of the Human Design New Year and the Chinese New Year, this is a space that aims to move beyond temporary trends and into authentic transformation.

Because 2026 is the final year before the world shifts into a new background frequency.

Most of us are still operating on "Old World" rules: trying to push, trying to copy others, and looking for external experts to tell us what to do. But the global energy is shifting toward Individuality.

You can’t "think" your way through a global shift. 2027 isn't an intellectual concept; it’s a physical, energetic frequency. This event gives you more knowledge and embodiment tools to prepare for this shift and anchor your nervous system.

We aren't meant to do this alone. By understanding the mechanics of the Penta (small groups) and your Heart Network, you’ll learn who actually belongs in your tribe and stop leaking energy in places your body isn’t leading you.

You get to work with the "Architect" when you are working with your Strategy and Authority. We are all operating on a trajectory that we don’t have control over, but with Awareness, we get to participate more, and that emPOWers us with CHOICE to become a co-creator of our life.

The Bottom Line: Attending EYD will help to release 2025's heavy conditioning and align with a version of yourself that can handle 2027. If you feel the "pull" to be in this room (or this Zoom), listen to your inner authority!

Annual cycles of Human Design are part of a much larger container called the Global Consciousness Program (GCP). The GCP is the background frequency guiding the evolution of collective consciousness on our planet. It’s tied to the precession of the equinox, a slow 26,000-year cycle of the Earth’s rotation, which is then mapped onto the 64-gate mandala to create 400-year cycles. Each 400-year cycle is further divided into six 60-year stages, giving structure to the way humanity evolves through time.

Since 1615, we’ve been under the Cross of Planning, a tribal energy that built the frameworks of modern society: democracy, education, healthcare, money systems, and social hierarchies. While these structures allowed humanity to move beyond monarchic rule, they often demanded the suppression of individuality to keep the collective machine running. For the past 60 years, we’ve been in the final stage of this cycle, which is why we’re seeing these tribal systems breaking down.

In 2027, the cycle shifts to the Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix, a new 400-year phase that emphasizes individuality, self-empowerment, and personal responsibility. The old tribal systems will no longer sustain humanity, and survival will depend on knowing and trusting your true self.

2026 is a pivotal year before this shift, so we can consolidate what we have learned over the past 400 years, clean up the old, and prepare for the next stage of collective evolution.

Every year, the Human Design New Year begins when the Sun enters Gate 41 in the Root Center. It is the energetic beginning of every new cycle and the initiating pressure that seeds all experience.

We honor this initiation when it occurred online, and we had planned to gather in person while the Sun was in Gate 41, but due to a winter freeze, we moved the in-person party to the first available time we could gather together again, which is February 21.

The Sun will be in Gate 55.4, adding emotional and spiritual awareness and connection to our network, perfect for the themes of 2026.

February 21 also falls during the celebration of the Chinese New Year, welcoming the Year of the Fire Horse. This gives us a rare and powerful overlap to connect with the 2026 cycle through Human Design while also welcoming Chinese Astrology — all in one experience.

This timing is now bridging Capricorn → Aquarius → Pisces.

Gathering during Empower Your Design gives you the opportunity to clear residue from 2025, attune to the 2026 cycle, and prepare for 2027.

“Every January, as the Sun enters the 41st Gate, we initiate a new human experiential cycle on this plane. The 41st Gate is quite extraordinary. In its relationship to genetics, it is the only initiating codon. If you think about genetics as being written out as an alphabet, the very beginning of any genetic sentence, in fact, every genetic sentence, would begin with the 41st Gate. It starts everything." - Ra Uru Hu

You are in the right place. Ecstatic dance isn't about choreography, performance, or rhythm; it’s about reclaiming the free movement of our bodies.

Nadine’s InnerFlow approach is designed to help you move your body without the mind. If dancing feels like too much, you can simply sway, walk, or sit and observe how your aura reacts to the music and the presence of others.

There is NO judgment on how you wish to be present for these events.

This event is a safe space to practice listening to the body. For many people, this is a breakthrough for so many conditioned ways of being.

Ultimately, this event honors your Strategy and Authority; you are never forced to participate in a way that feels incorrect for you. You are invited to be the observer of the experiment, even if that means laying down, resting, and observing.

Nothing, you’re perfect. But also, we hope that you walk away with:

• Greater clarity around your role in relationships and community

• Less mental pressure around decision-making

• A deeper trust in your own timing and direction

• More ease in your nervous system

• A clearer sense of who and what is no longer aligned

Bring your water bottle and clothes to freely move in. We will be on the dance floor and there will be couches, pillows, and blankets to sit on. The dance floor does not allow shoes, so we recommend bringing a pair of comfy socks!
