2) Quick reference map

Emotional Authority (Solar Plexus)

Your clarity arrives over time, not in the moment. Decisions are best made after you ride your emotional wave and let the intensity settle.

Key move Sleep on it
Watch for Highs and lows
Green flag Calm yes later
Sacral Authority

Your body answers now with a gut response. You are designed to respond to something concrete, not to force mental certainty.

Key move Ask yes or no questions
Watch for Pushing past fatigue
Green flag Energized response
Splenic Authority

Your guidance is quiet and immediate, like a single clean signal. It often speaks once, in the present, and it is strongly tied to health and safety.

Key move Trust the first whisper
Watch for Replaying the moment
Green flag Instant knowing
Ego Authority (Heart or Will)

Your truth comes from desire and will. A clean decision sounds like “I want this” and feels sustainable for your energy and resources.

Key move Name what you want
Watch for Proving yourself
Green flag Honest desire
Self Projected Authority (G Center)

Your direction comes through identity and voice. Talking it out helps the right path reveal itself through what you hear yourself say.

Key move Speak your truth out loud
Watch for Adapting to please
Green flag “This is me” feeling
Mental Authority (No Inner Authority)

You are not designed to decide from an inner body signal. Clarity comes from environment, trusted sounding boards, and noticing what stays true after conversation.

Key move Choose the right environment
Watch for Deciding to end the pressure
Green flag Clear after talking
Lunar Authority (Reflector)

Your clarity unfolds over a lunar cycle. You are designed to watch the story change over time and decide after enough perspective.

Key move Give it time
Watch for Forcing a quick answer
Green flag Consistency over weeks

5) A simple experiment (7 days)

This is the fun part. For one week, practice your authority on small daily decisions and track what happens.

If you want to go deeper, compare two outcomes. One decision made from pressure, one made from authority, then write down the difference.
