Conscious Living through your Human Design Body & Soul Map
Get in touch with your authentic energy and way of being in the world so you can honor your emotional process, make better decisions, and have more harmonious relationships!
They say that children don’t come with instruction manuals, but they kind of DO — we ALL do. Your Human Design chart is a snapshot of the planets at the moment of birth, and 88 days prior to birth — a “life instruction manual” to your innate, energetic signature that can make life easier when you use it.
“The Human Design System is not a belief system....It is a concrete map to the nature of being, a mapping of your genetic code....Human Design opens the door to the potential of self-love, a love of life and the love of others through understanding.”
Does this sound familiar?
The way we’re told that we “should” be, make things happen, work and hustle, and raise our children just doesn’t feel right or actually work!
You try and try to do things the way you’re “supposed” to, but end up angry, frustrated, bitter or disappointed
Trying to figure everything out and “make things happen” is exhausting
You feel like you need to “find” yourself and want to feel more grounded as you navigate today’s fast, changing world
You want to be your authentic self, whoever that is
You’re curious about how to incorporate energetic and cosmic elements like astrology and Human Design into your life and way of being
If you’re a parent, you want to parent your child differently than you experienced as a child, and know that good parenting starts with you
Imagine being able to…
ALIGN with your AUTHENTIC energetic way of being and making decisions
Discover what makes really makes you You, and stop trying to be who you are not
UNDERSTAND your energetic needs for movement and sleep
Do you need more rest and time to unwind or have lots of energy to expend? How does that fit with how your life is currently set up?
Envision and EMBODY a truer version of yourself
Understanding your energetic blueprint can help you stay true to yourself through the stages of your life
RECONNECT with parts of yourself that may have been suppressed
We’ve been conditioned to act certain ways and value mental processes that aren’t in our highest, truest good
How what is right for you is revealed through your emotional process, intuition, gut response, or a lunar cycle
EMPOWER your self and your inner child
Do you learn better by trying many different things for yourself or investigating deeply?
Is your life journey more about the relationships in your life or the personal experiences you have?
Gain CONFIDENCE in your ability to authentically live your life
Protect your energy and stand in your truth
Get out of your “monkey mind” and into your BODY
We all start in tune with our body’s knowing, before our conditioning causes us to hide parts of ourselves and get all up in our heads
If you’re a parent, your AUTHENTICY will better SUPPORT your child’s development

You have questions? I have answers.

Human Design tells us how our energetic bodies move and operate in the world around us.
It offers us strategies and insight on how to use our energy correctly so we can find personal alignment as we live our unique life purpose.
Human Design combines ancient and modern sciences. It synthesizes wisdom from the Chinese I-Ching, Western Astrology, Hindu Chakra System, and the Kabbalah Tree of Life. It integrates this wisdom with Genetics, Quantum Physics, and Biochemistry.
-
Both Human Design and astrology use your birthdate, time, and place information. Your astrology birth chart and Human Design chart are both a snapshot of the planets the moment you were born. Both are useful tools and complement each other.
Astrology focuses on the 12 zodiac signs (you probably know your sun sign), 12 houses, and the aspects the planets have between each other.
Human Design includes and goes beyond astrology with the planetary placements, and also adding aspects of the I Ching, Kabbalah Tree of Life, Hindu chakra system, and quantum physics. There are 64 gates correlating to our 64 codons of DNA. It uses your birth info, as well as where the planets were 88 days before your birth (when the soul entered).
-
I love Human Design and I love postpartum, so I put them together! ;) And I’m currently expanding beyond postpartum (preconception, pregnancy, or any major life transition “portal.” Whether or not you’re postpartum at the moment, HD is a useful tool for knowledge of yourself and those around you, and you learn about yourself as a parent during this (or any) season of life. I also offer in-home or virtual postpartum doula support, as well as parenting preparation mentorship.

While this reading is for one adult, I also have parent/child readings, and couples readings. There are links later on this page.

What I know about Human Design is mostly self-taught for several years, and I’d love to explore more with you.

Hey, I’m Julie Behnken – Conscious Parenting Mentor, Human Design Guide, and Threshold Keeper
I’ve been a parent for over 20 years, spending 13 of those years as a LifeWays (Waldorf-inspired) infant/toddler teacher, and, wow, I wish I had known about Human Design sooner! I have gained so much insight into myself and the important people in my life because of it. It’s an honor to support and empower people through the discovery of their Human Design, and I especially love supporting birthing people and their families on their journeys into parenthood.
As a sacral Manifesting Generator with a 2/4 profile and The Right Angle Cross of Penetration 2 incarnation cross, my Human Design orients me to “beginnings,” intuition, working with transformations, engaging with my community, responding to the environment around me, and embodying the physical as a means to transcendence. I am the parent of an emotionally-defined, 6/2 Projector and Human Design helps me to support my son in the best way for him as he begins to make his way in this crazy world, and, in hindsight, it sheds light on struggles he (and his dad and I) faced when he was a young child. I can only imagine how I’d have parented differently (and better) if I’d known Human Design (and Waldorf philosophy) when he was very young. Better late than never, but the sooner, the better, too!
The astrological sign of Cancer is considered the cosmic mother archetype, and as a Cancer Sun and Rising, nurturing those who are becoming parents (or parents again) is my calling. My Taurus moon lends a sense of comfort, can find the beauty in things, and keeps things practical.
I’ve been into astrology for most of my adult life, and have been eagerly digging into Human Design since I discovered it in 2018, learning on my own and through various online programs.
Each person’s journey on this earth is unique to them, but societal norms and expectations, gender roles, and our American culture’s disregard for what people and families really need to thrive lead to most of us being conditioned out of what really serves us. We all experience challenges, but if you are all-too-familiar with the feeling of frustration, anger, bitterness or disappointment as you keep trying to do what you’re “supposed” to do, it’s time to uncover your unique energetic design. Just because something is COMMON doesn’t mean it’s NORMAL for you. Your type, strategy, authority, and profile are the guideposts for living the experiment of “your normal” that will truly serve you, and therefore, the world around you.
Julie Behnken is the owner and founder of StarSong Postpartum & Beyond. As a Manifesting Generator, she is multi-passionate — a mentor through transitions, intuitive guide, postpartum doula and early parenting coach, postpartum nutrition coach, reiki practitioner, and a studied Human Design enthusiast. After completing her LifeWays Early Childhood Certificate program, she was the owner of StarSong LifeWays Child Care for 10 years (a licensed, in-home Waldorf-inspired program and LifeWays representative site in Boulder, Colorado). She has a Master’s in Interdisciplinary Studies and also holds a RIE Foundations certificate, as well as some experience and training with Montessori education.
Julie loves to read, knit, eat good (gluten-free) food, learn (often exploring “rabbit holes” of information about human design and astrology, holistic health, spirituality, and organizing), and connect with her now-adulting son (a Projector and Taurus) in Denver. She strives to be a better gardener and to do more yoga and Pilates. Julie lives in Colorado with her wife, Charlene, a 2/4 emotionally-defined Generator and Leo.
Wow, thanks for reading to the end! Ready to get on my calendar and discover your Human Design Body & Soul Map?
