What is your DreamRave Design?
Mine’s a Reflector
Most likely, you are too, as almost 70% of humans are.
Notice in the above image that the Design of a dreamer is much simpler than your familiar Human Design Chart. The Head, Ajna, Ego and Solar Plexus centers are switched off when we sleep. So your DreamRave appears as a 5-Centered Design, as opposed to 9-Centered, with just 15 Gates instead of the usual 64.
The DreamRave calculation is 88 degrees of the Moon’s movement before your natal imprint and only includes current positions of the planets in mammalian gates. For these reasons, many people often see a Type change between their waking and sleeping designs.

"Dream Design is perhaps one of the most interesting maps that exists in my work. It is fascinating because when you finally get hold of this and grasp it, you get to understand how powerful the impact of Dream Design programming can be.”
~ Ra Uru Hu
The Design of a Dreamer
Everyone has a unique DreamRave design that differs dramatically from their waking Human Design. When you compare the two side-by-side, you can immediately see the stark contrast and the limitation.

A note on buying Your DreamRave Chart:
This is not an interpretive service, it simply shows you what your dream design is.
Charts are run by hand so please be patient upon ordering as fulfillment is not instantaneous.
Read on for more of what your Dream Design can tell you! Ra taught that it’s the deepest conditioning, even higher than your split as a conditioning force.
“The level of conditioning that takes place while you're unconscious is incredible. I don't say this to take away from whatever your particular unique delight happens to be in your own dreamscape. My job isn't to destroy the illusions, it’s just to reveal the mechanics. I don’t care what illusion you want to go with, but the mechanics are very clear. The moment you step into that lunar body and shed most of your Personality, is the moment that you're going to be deeply conditioned.” Ra Uru Hu
What does Human Design say about our Dreams?
We spend about a third of our lives asleep. We have a different design in our waking state, that of our mammalian heritage. That means a third of our time alive is being conditioned as a form which is as alien to who we think we are as being a dolphin or a dog!
Mainstream science of dream interpretation is vastly different than the Human Design System Dream Interpretation and the role of nighttime dreams are viewed quite differently by us professionals of this fascinating tool for self-discovery.
Homogenization Station: Standard Dream Theory
“Sigmund Freud and C.G. Jung were pioneers in the field of dream psychology who theorized that dreams represent our deepest unconscious desires and impulses. They popularized the method of interpreting dream content with abstract symbolism and free association.
While modern dream scientists have mostly called these into question and replaced them with a new set of theories about, for example, the role of dreams in helping us process emotions, we are still left trying to interpret dream content and meaning.” JovianArchive.com
Most people interested in dreams have heard of Jungian dream theory, which states that dreams reveal more than they conceal. Carl Jung rejected Sigmund Freud’s dream theory interpretation—Freud believed dreams were mainly a product of discharging sexual (tabooed) impulses. He maintained that our dreams held important clues to be interpreted for insight into how our minds think.
Jung, on the other hand, stated that dreams are a natural expression of our imagination and needn't be interpreted for them to perform their function. Instead, he suggested that dreams are doing the work of integrating the conscious and unconscious aspects of our psyche.
The Human Design System’s DreamRave Design
Unlike Jung and Freud's theories, Human Design's DreamRave element is not about teaching us how to interpret our dreams for personal meaning. DreamRave is also not dependent on us remembering or not what happened. It’s not about lucid dreaming, either.
The DreamRave knowledge is yet another compelling aspect of the Human Design System that is astounding in its accuracy. Your DreamRave chart identifies your sleeping design to provide you with valuable data about why you dream what you do. The insights into what Ra called the "Night Forces" can be quite profound and hard to swallow as not being personal if you've spent a lifetime identifying with your dreams as “yours.”
As a helpful tool for awakening empowerment in your daily reality, your DreamRave gives you data about your nighttime illusions the way no other system can. Created from the same data that calculates your waking Human Design, your DreamRave illustrates the thematics of the conditioning you receive from the neutrino program while you sleep. Your DreamRave chart can show you what's holding you back from being empowered in your waking life—something you cannot see from your regular or even Advanced Human Design Chart.
“The work in DreamRave includes the ability to understand the actual mechanism of the sleep state, and the mechanical ways in which we are being conditioned and homogenized in that process.
This is a fascinating process as it helps us understand the nature of the dream archetype in a way that is mechanically precise. That is, there are different kinds of Personas. Each of the Personas’ carries a dualistic archetype, and these archetypes are what populate our dreams; they are the foundation for dream scenarios within the DreamRave itself.
So much of the attention about the nature of dreaming has been focused on interpretation rather than understanding it as a “seduction.” It’s one of the most brilliant seductions the program has—the dreamer's movie, the release from the normal domain, and the quality of the science fiction of it all.
We Are Receptors
If you look at a BodyGraph and the emptiness or open centers, it explains why it's so difficult for the average human being to escape homogenization; we are nothing but receptors.
When you're awake, you have the ability to deal with the conditioning to those receptors because you're conscious. You have a Strategy and Authority, a way of navigating through the conditioning field so that you're not drawn away from your possibilities; but, not when you're asleep, let alone all those human beings sleeping in somebody else's aura.”
What’s Your Weakness?
Your DreamRave may have an area of pressure called a "weak point." Some people have a weak point in their sleeping Design. A weak point shows where you are vulnerable, susceptible to certain influences that are not you. When your DreamRave Gates are bridging Gates in your waking Design, they represent areas of weakness that can filter into daytime awareness. If you are not aware of this, these areas can cause you to make decisions that are not in alignment with your true nature. Strategy and Authority are your protection from the weak point.
"... when you‘re looking at your Design and you‘re looking at your DreamRave the first exercise for you is to look at those gates or definition that translate over from your Design to the DreamRave and begin to look at them as your weakest point, and begin to think about them in that context, begin to see that this is your most vulnerable place. And then to begin to watch what it‘s like for you each day when you begin your process to see how these themes that are there are going to emerge one way or another, and they do. It is the brilliance of the program."
Ra Uru Hu
One of my Deepest conditioning elements is Sex
Here’s an example of nighttime conditioning. If we were to take Gate 50 into my waking Design’s split definition (two areas of colored in centers separated from each other create a split), you can see that because Gate 27 is hanging in my undefined sacral center, so adding the 50 would create a channel.
See how in my DreamRave Chart, Gate 27 is not there but Gate 50 is—Gate 50 is one of the deepest areas of weakness for me. Together gates 27-50 create the Channel of Preservation, having nothing to do with sex in the waking Design—but in the sleeping, mammalian-like Design, it governs reproduction - ie sex.
I remember growing up, all the way up until a few years ago (when my human design experiment really started to change me) I would often have dreams with fearful, sometimes sexual themes. Imagine how disturbed I was to also experience lots of massacres, cataclysms and bodies decaying! Gate 42 is from the demon realm, and it was responsible for a lot of nightmares for me before I started getting realigned.
The understanding derived through getting a DreamRave reading several years ago brought me so much relief from the confusion that identifying with those dreams can bring! I even remember killing people in my dreams, and waking up thinking, what the heck is wrong with me!
Can you imagine?
What’s holding you back from Living Your Design? Conditioning.
The DreamRave can show you what’s holding you back from living your design. In changing the example above slightly—say you have both gates 27 and 50 (the Channel of Preservation) during sleep but your Human Design chart does not have that channel defined, and your authority is Solar Plexus.
The dilemma here is that you are so be deeply conditioned to behave in a Splenic (spontaneous) way, it can be a tough challenge to cultivate the patience necessary in decision-making as an Emotional being.
The benefits of understanding your DreamRave
“What you get in the dream can poison your waking consciousness.” Ra Uru Hu
People who have delved into their DreamRave increased ability to notice the conditioning pressures at night. By understanding the dynamics at work, you are less likely to be held in the thrall of night time conditioning.
Many people who have experimented with implementing a strict routine of following their Primary Health System with their first meal of the day have also found tremendous benefits in terms of increased awareness and ability to follow their Strategy and Authority.
This has certainly been the case for me; I began following my PHS in January of 2013. Can’t remember killing anyone in my dreams since 2014.
Going to sleep correctly for your Type and sleeping in your own aura prepares you to enter into the dream state so that what you can take from it is of value to you, and wake up as yourself!
DreamRave study is a powerful and rewarding way of analyzing dreams that can empower you to let go of what isn't your authentic waking truth.
I hope you enjoyed this introduction to the Human Design DreamRave. I've studied it on my own and with IHDS. I am looking forward to right timing to submit my final project so that I can contribute peace of mind to others who can find comfort in this knowledge through correct operation.
Jovian has info for those of you this week who would like to delve into the realms of what Ra called the DreamScape. DreamRave knowledge offers us keynotes for each of the Gates, categorized into three groups; the Light Field, the Demon Realm, and the Earth Plane.
Discovering your dreamscape and the persona you don at night helps you comprehend the depth of your nighttime conditioning. With DreamRave, you can see how these influences affect you while you sleep. The residual imprints on your consciousness when you awaken can be understood through this knowledge.
If you are a student of Human Design and have the Maia Mechanics Imaging Software, here’s where to buy Jovian’s Human Design DreamRave extension.
