Fixated on a mythological depiction of nature, Japanese artist Ishibashi Yui sculpts feral children that appear to belong to another realm of reality. Pallid, hairless human bodies become fused with roots and vines, brought to life through a mixture of wood, resin, clay, wire and paint. Oftentimes, the figures appear imprisoned by the flora. In Then, It Returns Slowly, a pregnant woman's face erupts with flesh-colored growths that form a tree trunk. The character in Dream of 10 Billion Years succumbs to a similar fate as her limbs are fused with a chair and her head becomes a bouquet-like arrangement of leaves and branches. These sculptures personify nature as a force that reclaims its power from its human occupants. Take a look at some of Yui's sculptures after the jump.

Do you want to manifest with ease and live a fulfilling life? Once you have your free human design chart, you can start your self-discovery journey with your energy type. It's been proven that individuals who know and use their Energy Type have more success in all areas of life. The path to being your happiest, most successful self is one that is as unique as you! We are all different which is why a strategy that works for a friend or influencer might not work for you. Please remember that no energy type is better or worse than another just like there is no best zodiac sign. Understanding your energy type, strategy and signs of frustration can help you live in alignment and help you discover your soul's purpose while living in joy during the process. Many of us have spent our entire life living according to programming from our parents, friends, mentors, etc. so it will take time to un-program those habits to live according to our chart. We recommend starting with small daily rituals that help you relax and get in better tune with yourself. If you find you don't have enough time, just 5min of self care every morning and evening will actually give you more time by focusing your energy and allowing a greater level of efficiency. We have a 30 day challenge that curates daily self care rituals based on your human design energy type that helps you use your chart to be your best self or you can create your own program using the human design information below. HUMAN DESIGN REFLECTORS ARE THE SOULFUL SAGES OF OUR WORLD As a human design reflector, you are born with a unique and special connection to the cosmic world around you. It wouldn’t surprise us if people make jokes about your being a psychic (or if you actually are one!). It is your role to enliven and lift up the energy of others. You can amplify and reflect other people's energy to them in a non-imposing, non-judgmental way. You will lead the way to a global awakening of consciousness but it is important for you to find your place in the heart of your community. Even though you have all open centers you have a protective aura to help guide you and are no more susceptible to outside influences than any other person. Your biggest fear may be not being seen or included (talk about extreme FOMO) and this can lead to non-authentic behaviors and feelings of disappointment. It is important that while you feel the energy (pain and joy) of others to stay neutral. Questions to ask yourself: “Who am I today?” or “Can I be myself?” If you feel yourself dipping into this feeling, remember to delight in everyday miracles, which you’re so good at finding. Feeling disappointed? It may be time to switch your circles or take a look at your environment. Feeling disappointed is your tell tale sign you are out of alignment. Your strategy is to wait and get in sync with the lunar cycle. Surprise in the everyday miracles of life is what ignites your soul so look for them constantly and appreciate them even if everyone around you thinks you're crazy for hugging the tree. One moon cycle of living in alignment with your chart will help you to awaken your mind to what is your truth vs what is the programming. Focusing on your truth over your programming will help alleviate the resistance. Glow inside and out with a curated journey of oils and self care acts that will help you discover your purpose and infuse self love and joy into your daily life. CLAIM MY INVITATION Human Design Reflector Self Care Guide Morning – As someone who tends to take on a lot, it is important for you to ground yourself each morning by journaling and saying your affirmations as you apply your face oils. During the day - As an open and sensitive being, it’s important to take care of yourself and not let yourself become overwhelmed by the world’s pain. It is best for you to spend as much time in nature as you can. In order to release the energy you pick up during the day, it’s important to have a dedicated space for you to unwind. Recommended Essential oil: De-Stress Nighttime- For a human design reflector like you, it is not a good idea to go to bed completely exhausted and start to wind down an hour before so you can release energies that do not belong to you and prepare for a restful night. Make sure you get your alone time! Essential oil: Sleep because of the Sandalwood essential oils! Smell is also the only sense connected to the limbic lobe of the brain, which controls emotions and is strongly linked to behavioral patterning so can help you reprogram your open center and strengthen your defined centers. Use oils with your self care to awaken your senses and recondition any old stories you may be telling yourself that no longer serve you. Glow inside and out with a curated journey of oils and self care acts that will help you discover your purpose and infuse self love and joy into your daily life. THE MANIFESTOR HUMAN DESIGN: HOW TO THRIVE AS VIVACIOUS VISIONARIES The Manifestor Human Design is also rare indeed as only 10% of the population identify as Manifestor. Go head, take a victory lap. But then come back, because we’ve got work to do! You have a gift for initiating action and creating impact that is long lasting. It is the main goal of the manifestor human design to find the peace to do what they want, when they want to do it, which can make them great entrepreneurs but not always great employees if not in a leadership role. You are at ease in solitude and find peace in manifesting what you want for yourself which can sometimes not make you the best team player – you’re probably relieved you’re not stuck in school doing group projects anymore! It may feel as though there is an ever present pressure to make things happen, as this is key to fulfilling your purpose. The manifestor human design can have a repelling aura that can sometimes be misinterpreted and make people feel defensive or protective. To improve relationships, it is important to communicate after you have made a decision but before you take action. You may need to confront the following fears: Fear of upsetting someone, fear of confrontation, fear of control. It might feel easier to just become a hermit, but you can totally learn to not listen to these fears and grow even more in your relationships. When you are resisting your true nature and not using your strategy, you might tend towards anger. The manifestor human design soul desires peace, a place of no resistance. In order to do that, you must follow a strategy that works for you. In your relationships, you have to bring people along the journey with you by telling them (informing) what you are doing even if you are worried they don’t agree. It’s definitely not the end of the world if someone disagrees with you! Manifestor Self Care Guide: Smell is the only sense connected to the limbic lobe of the brain, which controls emotions and is strongly linked to behavioral patterning so it can help you reprogram your open center and strengthen your defined centers. Use oils with your self care to awaken your senses and recondition any old stories you may be telling yourself that no longer serve you. Morning: For the manifestor like you, it’s important to begin the day with some movement, such as yoga or stretching. Even 5-10 minutes is something! Apply your face oils while saying your affirmations. During the Day: Burst + Retreat is necessary. The manifestor human design type needs to take care not to experience burnout, which they will tend to do left to their own devices. A capitalist society will peer pressure you into working too hard for too long. Instead, honor your rhythm – retreat and rest when needed. Think of it as an act of rebellion! You may have bursts of productivity, but then you need to rest. Don’t subscribe to the “shoulds” – whatever works best for you is what’s best for you. Essential oil: Headache (Lavender and Peppermint essential oil) Night Time: Start your wind-down routine by washing your face and then apply an oil while tapping your whole face. For you, it is best to lie down for up to one hour before going to sleep in order to discharge from the day. You can do whatever activity feels best to you (reading, television, listening to music...), though it’s probably best if you stay off of social media. One moon cycle of living in alignment the manifestor human design chart will help you to awaken your mind to what is your truth vs what is the programming. We invite you to embark on a self-discovery process that brings self-love and joy. CLAIM INVITATION MANIFESTING GENERATORS HUMAN DESIGN Manifesting Generators are full of creativity and energy and love to work when you love what you do. You love to be engaged and will follow through step by step to the end, but if you get stuck you do need new input or instructions so you can continue to respond and thrive. You are amazing at mastering skills and need to be careful of the temptation to quit. Manifesting Generators have the benefit of efficiency as they can see steps that can be skipped but can also be impatient and skip important steps along the way. You are more likely to be impatient and aggressive compared to pure generators. You will get there...keep at it! All Manifesting Generators have embracing auras but have to wait to respond to the right opportunity. The frustration can come when you feel like waiting to respond feels like doing nothing. This is the opposite of their nature as the energy force of doing comes very naturally to a Manifesting Generator. Trust and patience are the name of the game. Think

Learning about phylogeny from ontogeny By studying ontogeny (the development of embryos), scientists can learn about the evolutionary history of organisms. Ancestral characters are often, but not always, preserved in an organism's development. For example, both chick and human embryos go through a stage where they have slits and arches in their necks that are
This is the time of the great awakening. Many souls have been called to this planet to support this spiritual awakening process and in turn support their own soul's growth & ascension journey.
