Human Design Daily Ritual Experiment | Beyoncé Knowles
Being inspired by the daily routines and rituals of people you respect is a beautiful way to experiment and create a daily ritual that works for you.
Remember, the best ritual is always your own.
In a previous blog post, I mentioned that meme that was going around a while back that says you have the same 24 hours as Beyoncé; while true, it's ridiculous!
We're not making a living in the same way as Beyoncé (I can't sing and dance in heels for shit)
We don't have the same support as Beyoncé (no chef or assistant in sight!)
And I doubt Beyoncé is answering emails to a boss about an overdue report
So we commoners (ahem, I mean beautiful muses) have to juggle all the responsibilities put before us, including prioritizing our well-being while making a living.
I wanted to break down Beyoncé's human design chart and daily ritual while also considering the resources she has to accomplish such amazing feats. We are never here to compare ourselves with others, but seeing what others have done can expand the possibilities in this world.
Beyoncé Knowles Human Design Chart
How her energy is expressed | Manifesting Generator
Manifesting Generators are the ultimate multi-passionates who are here to absolutely do the things they love! As a cultural icon, singer, songwriter, actress, dancer, and entrepreneur, Beyonce is the epitome of alladat!
Queen Bey has too many accolades to mention, but she has changed the game in many ways through her talent and innovation.
"I choose to invest my time and energy only in projects that I am passionate about. Once I've committed, I give it all of me."
How she interacts with the world | 1/3 Profile
This profile is of the Investigator/Resource (line 1) and the Explorer (line 3). 1/3s are here to learn how to love the process of life. With their investigative and exploratory nature, they're here to gather knowledge, experiment with it, then change the world by sharing the wisdom they've gained through it all.
Just think about the different iterations we've seen Beyoncé experiment with:
Destiny's Child
Stepping out with Dangerously in Love
Renaissance
Bringing us visual albums
Surprise releases
Her foray into acting
etc
And the way she goes hard to prepare for her shows is unheard of. Beyoncé has the traits of a perfectionist, tuning in to every detail and showing an underlying desire for certainty or security in the outcome. Preparation is critical for a line 1, even before the experimentation of the line 3. And the way Bey does it leaves the world with the beauty of her creative expression.
"My process is tedious. I review every second of footage several times and know it backward and forwards. I find every ounce of magic and then I deconstruct it. I keep building more layers and repeat this editing process for months. I won't let up until it's undeniably reached its full potential."
The gifts she was here to share with the world | RAX Consciousness
Any great master of a craft studies those who have come before them, exploring where change is needed and where innovation can usher in forward progress.
Beyoncé, being a self-proclaimed perfectionist and workaholic, as we saw in the Netflix documentary Homecoming, studies the greats in various genres of the arts and allows her discovery and reflection to inform her own contribution.
With the Right Angle Cross of Consciousness, you explore, experiment with, and expand the patterns and commonalities of life to create something new. Through your imagination, curiosity, and desire for growth, you push the boundaries of what is possible, expanding the consciousness of the collective.
Beyoncé has been a constant in the game for over 20 years, awakening us to different ways to express love, anger, and jealousy while shining a light on Black culture and the ancestors who've helped form it.
How she did with consistency, structure, and routines | Calm Touch
The top left arrow on the chart represents digestion, which is how you best digest life, including the food you eat, how to take in information, and how you handle sensations. Specifically, when it points left, this means structure and consistency are supportive for you.
Beyoncé is a notoriously private person. She's very selective about who's in her orbit, carefully crafting the energy around her, which makes sense with her calm touch digestion variable.
"In this business, so much of your life does not belong to you unless you fight for it. I've fought to protect my sanity and my privacy because the quality of my life depended on it. A lot of who I am is reserved for the people I love and trust."
Calm touch is all about the energy of the environment. When the energy is calm, it allows her to focus on connecting with the information, the conversation, the people, etc.
A Glimpse At Beyoncé's Daily Ritual
Beyoncé prays, meditates, and journals to stay centered and focused before her busy day.
She has shared that when she's alone and traveling, she likes to keep a video diary:
"The camera in that computer has been my friend. When I'm away, and I'm alone, and I need to talk and I need to heal myself. Because you hold so many thoughts… your mind… It's my diary."
Keeping her health in top shape is a priority, so her goal is drinking a gallon of water with lemon throughout the day, along with healthy meals including fish, lots of veggies, and unprocessed foods…but allows for a weekly cheat day. Hard-core workouts keep her curves tight! "My diet is important, and I use tools like acupuncture, meditation, visualization, and breathing exercises."
Rehearsals for her shows take up a big chunk of her mornings + afternoons.
Sundays are her day to unwind and spend quality time with her family. "No work, not even a discussion about work…."
In earlier years, Beyoncé was a self-described workaholic, tying in perfectly with her perfectionist tendencies and drive for innovation. But in later years, her priorities shifted. "I'm starting to live and pay attention. The one thing I'm trying to learn is time management. It's the hardest thing for me. Taking my time and doing things at a slower pace… It's hard because I have to plan, but I'm working it out, I'm going to get there… My daughter has been my balance."
She's no longer of the sleep-when-you're-dead camp. "I am a person who has a hard time shutting off my brain. But if you are active during your day, you will be so exhausted you can't help but fall asleep. Having peace, happiness and healthiness is my definition of beauty. And you can't have any of that without sleep."
How to experiment with your own daily ritual or soul-led choices
You've learned about Beyoncé's human design and daily rituals…now what?
Experiment with what works for YOU!
Here are some considerations to start your experiment:
1. Whether you're going with a ritual or soul-led choices, the key is to set an intention and make it beautiful on your own terms. That way, it's something you can look forward to instead of feeling like another chore on your long to-do list.
Ask yourself, "how can I make the mundane aspects of my day beautiful?"
2. Remind yourself of the purpose of the elements of your ritual. What goals are they helping you achieve? These goals do not have to be tied to money, work, or business. It could be mental or physical health, connection with others, or intellectual enlightenment. Decide what it is for you!
3. Try different elements in your ritual, then leave what doesn't work without guilt. You do NOT have to follow Beyoncé's ritual to be happy, prosperous, or healthy. Yes, you can be inspired by what has worked for others, but you are so unique, and how you live your life needs to reflect + honor that.
Daily rituals or choices can be fuel to fulfilling your goals, keeping you sane, maintaining healthy relationships, and showing up as the highest version of yourself in your daily life. Allow them to be the impetus to living your life as a work of art, not the hindrance.
By understanding your unique human design, being inspired by others' nuances of living, and experimenting on your own, you can live your life in a soul-satisfying way.
You have the power to choose. Be inspired by the daily rituals of others, considering how unique you are, then create your own daily ritual that supports the life you're creating. Remember, you are the muse of your own life.
