109. Are systems like Human Design, Gene Keys and Astrology helpful on your spiritual journey?

Resources & Links

As an Akashic Records teacher, Suzie Ridley explores a question she is asked often: are systems like Human Design, Gene Keys, astrology, and personality tests genuinely helpful on the spiritual path? This episode offers a grounded perspective on how these tools can support self-understanding, while also becoming distractions if we get overly attached to labels or definitions.

Suzie explains why these systems exist in the first place, and how they often help us understand the “little self” rather than the soul-level “Big Self” that spiritual development ultimately points us towards. She shares a nuanced view on astrology, the role of self-study across esoteric traditions, and the importance of staying connected to your inner guidance rather than outsourcing your truth to any framework.

In this episode, you’ll learn

How to use Human Design, Gene Keys, and astrology as supportive lenses without letting them define or limit you

The difference between understanding the “little self” and the deeper purpose of spiritual self-realisation

Why these systems can become egoic distractions, especially when they replace spiritual practice

A clear sign your relationship with a system is becoming unhelpful (and what to do instead)

How to stay rooted in intuition and inner guidance, even when a framework suggests otherwise
