The Creative Rewilding Experiment with HD begins!

Experiment 1: Singing in a Rock Choir

Following on from my previous post. I am starting a regular experiment where I will:

1. Pick an insight from my Human Design Chart

2. Try out an activity that *should* help me ignite my creativity

3. Share the results here

Get Involved with your own experiment!

What is Human Design?

Think of it as a user manual for your soul—a blend of Astrology, the Chakra system, Quantum Mechanics, the I Ching, and the Kabbalah Tree of Life, all channelled by a man named Ra Uru Hu in 1987. Sounds chaotic? Maybe. But after doing over 100 readings, I can tell you this: I’ve yet to meet someone who didn’t walk away with a perspective shift that made a tangible difference for them.

In my work, I weave Human Design with Numerology, Astrology, Gene Keys, and Energetic Cycles—different lenses, same truth. Your energy is not random. Your patterns, desires, and struggles all make sense when you know where to look. That’s why, alongside my Psychology degree, I’m known as a Soul Psychologist—because this is about more than knowing yourself. It’s about reclaiming yourself.

It feels a little embarrassing to share this experiment because I feel by ‘this point in my life’ I ‘should’ have it all figured out.

But the reality is that we are constantly evolving fluid, shifting beings. So what worked for me in my 20s or 30s may not continue to work for me now I’m approaching 42 (shhh!)

And this work is me embodying my design - especially given the channel I’m focusing on this week.

Week 1 = Throat Centre and 12-22 Channel

I have a defined Throat Centre and just two channels in my chart—one of which is the 12-22, connecting my Solar Plexus (emotions) to my Throat (expression).

This channel is all about emotional expression and knowing that if I’m not in the mood, forcing it won’t work—the outcome will fall flat. Because it connects to the Throat (the manifesting centre), creative activities like speaking, singing, and writing feel naturally aligned.

So, for this week’s experiment, I decided to sing in a Rock Choir (check if you have the 12-22 channel too as you could try this out as well!)

Singing in a Rock Choir - how did it go?!

I went along to a trial session with my local Rock Choir

It was on a Wednesday morning - after doing the normal school run, I had time to come home for a coffee (can’t operate without coffee!) before heading over for a 10:30 start. It was at a local church that had been modernised but still had great acoustics. On arrival, I was given the lyrics for the songs we’d be singing:

⭐ 𝗠𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻 –@samhairwolfryder
⭐ Learn To Fly - @foofighters
⭐ 𝗧𝘄𝗼 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀 – @officialphilcollins

After a brief warm up we were straight in practising the first song line by line. I sat with the Sopranos, which in hindsight I’m not sure was the right choice as there were some *very* long high notes… not sure I was prepared for those!

Everyone was very friendly and welcoming, though I have to say I was definitely one of the youngest people there, which I suppose given it was a Wednesday morning lends itself to those who are retired or those who are #flexibleworking like me!

The Positives:

• I love singing (even though I’m not amazing at it!). Once we had practised enough, I really enjoyed just singing.

• I felt a real pulse from my Solar Plexus to my Throat when I fully allowed myself to sing, without overthinking if I was hitting the right notes.

• I left feeling uplifted and energised.

The Not-So-Positive:

• The choir was mostly an older crowd, so it didn’t feel like something I’d connect with socially.

• It was a big group—great for atmosphere, but I felt like just one of many.

• The repetition of practising lines over and over to get them perfect was a bit frustrating. I realised I’m more of a “let’s just have a singalong” kind of person than a “let’s nail every note for a performance” singer.

(And, of course, I had a moment of self-awareness: how we do one thing is how we do everything—impatience and my disregard for details? Noted!)

This is only Week 1 of the experiment

I know that sometimes pushing through initial awkwardness brings unexpected rewards. But I don’t feel a strong pull to spend my Wednesday mornings at Rock Choir going forwards.

That said, I do want to try another activity that involves using my voice—just in a way that feels more natural to me.

What should I try next?

P.S. I still have the lyrics for ‘Mountain’ going around in my head - bit of an ear worm that one!
