Quick Comparison of the 5 Types

This is helpful for beginners because it lets students compare strategy, aura, signature, and not-self themes side by side.

Manifestor Initiator, Catalyst, Impact Type Inform before acting Peace Anger

Manifesting Generator Hybrid Builder, Fast Creator, Multi-Passionate Type Wait to respond, then inform Satisfaction Frustration and anger
Projector Guide, Advisor, Energy Manager Wait for invitation Success Bitterness
Reflector Lunar Type, Mirror, Sampler Wait a lunar cycle Surprise Disappointment

Strategy and Authority Reminder

Type tells us how the aura works. Strategy helps us interact with life. Authority helps us make decisions correctly.

Defined and Undefined Reflection

Types are related to the bodygraph as a whole, while centers help explain consistency, sensitivity, and where energy is expressed or amplified.
