Human Design Academy

Ra Uru Hu [originally named Robert Allen Krakower] (1948-2011) was a Canadian physicist, developer of the Human Design System (HDS), musician, teacher, storyteller, poet and author. While working as a misanthropic schoolteacher living in a 300 year old house (a ruin practically), on the island of Ibiza Robert Allen Krakower (1948-2011) had an unusual mystical experience in January 1987. It was followed by an encounter with a fairly unpleasant “voice,” an intelligence far superior to anything he had ever experienced. This encounter lasted for eight days and nights during which he did neither eat nor drink nor sleep. He received a download (a transmission) of a vast body of information, that later formed his teachings of the “Human Design System.” The only being present was his dog. In 1989 Ra Uru Hu wrote the Rave I’Ching, the foundation upon which Human Design rests and the key to unlocking the code of our genetics. As the oldest of the Chinese classic texts, the I’Ching, or Book of Changes, is an ancient divination tool used for over three thousand years. After studying the old and modern wisdom teachings for two years, Ra Uru Hu (his then chosen new name meaning “the doorcloser") began teaching HDS worldwide. First though, he had destroyed all his written notes to avoid distributing HDS to humankind. Somebody had already copied them and it returned them to him. From then on he accepted this mission as a teacher of HDS. As an ego manifestor type, Ra Uru Hu turned out a much more sociable human being than he used to be before his encounter
