Authority

Self-Projected Authority

Your direction can become audible as you speak: in front of a listener who doesn't give advice, or out loud when you're on your own.

In your chart, the G Center is connected to the Throat, no motor is defined, and you are a Projector. Roughly two to three percent of people have this Authority. It shows up as a subtle sense of your own direction: a knowing without reasons, more of a “This is the way” than a thought, and for that reason easy to dismiss as vague.

It can become audible as you speak. You can say a concrete option out loud in front of someone who listens without steering or advising you, and pay attention to what you yourself are saying: Which sentence sounds like you? Or you can go for a walk alone and say out loud whatever comes to mind. This speaking is for you, so you can hear yourself. It is something other than the sharing of an insight that some gate and channel texts talk about, and it doesn't need anyone asking for your opinion. At the same time, many people feel what fits in the middle of the chest, as a gentle pull.

The signal is delicate and easy to miss, especially when other people's moods, other people's energy or your own mind cut in. The task of this Authority is to give direction when you are invited; knowing your own direction helps with that.

Since no motor is defined in your chart, energy may often be a recurring theme for you. Energy has no voice in decisions, and other people's energy is not your own.

A 14-day experiment

For 14 days, notice whether a sentence stands out as feeling more right than the others while you're telling someone something or thinking out loud. Write it down in the evening, and also note when nothing stood out or when the sentence didn't fit later on.
