A Human Design Analysis is a professional reading of an individual's design kit (BodyGraph), performed by a certified analyst trained in Ra Uru Hu's system. A complete analysis covers the foundational mechanics: Type, Strategy, Authority, Definition, Profile, Incarnation Cross, Centers (defined and undefined), Gates (activated and hanging/harmonic), and Channels. Ra Uru Hu taught that a proper analysis should always begin with Type and Authority — the most immediately actionable information — before moving into the deeper layers. Advanced analyses may also include Variable (PHS — Primary Health System), Rave Cosmology connections, and relationship (connection) analysis. The purpose of an analysis is not to tell people who they are, but to show them the mechanics of their Design so they can experiment with living it correctly.
