Speaker

00:00:47
Speaker
Welcome back to Shine on You. We are in season two, episode three. How are you doing? I'm good. You look lovely. Yeah. I like this all American vibe you got going on. Well, it was a combined effort. But we didn't even try. We just like nailed it. As usual.
00:01:08
Speaker
As usual. Yes. Yes. I like that you inform me what you're going to wear so that I don't come in and throw off the costume. The aesthetic. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. So I do appreciate that. But I don't even need to inform you because you're already picking up on it. I do tune in. I do. And usually it's black, white, or denim because I figure that's safe. But one day I might get crazy and throw in a pop of color, and then we'll see what happens. We might, like, I think I just should have an extra change of clothes in the car, just in case we got to swap it out real quick. Might have to. Yeah. Yeah, for sure. Or I'll just be like slowly progressing into my black athleisure.
00:01:49
Speaker
Where I know well it could happen you also have your birthday glow. Oh, yes. Yes, I do Mm-hmm. Yeah that Yeah, that was was that almost oh that was I'm like losing track of time this this has been a very fast and furious stretch Halloween my birthday. Yes daylight savings Election we go there second summer here. We have second summer. It's humid and hot very hot yeah
00:02:20
Speaker
We're so hot. Yeah, we were like, no sweaters today. We did. I was like, should I just do it for the studio? And I'm like, I don't even think I can manage that. No. To just portray faulty all, but. It doesn't matter. This is timeless. There's no time going on here. So yeah, time warp. For sure, for sure. So I wanted to ask you, I was curious. I often have these thoughts, these curiosities.
00:02:46
Speaker
So this time of year, we have more darkness, more yin time of the year. I experience this distinctly. Okay. How does this time of year, my friend, affect you or does it not? Do you adjust? Do you make any conscious changes to your life, your schedule,
00:03:09
Speaker
I'm curious. I mean, you're specifically talking about with our shift in light because of our shift in time. Yes. Our international listeners will have no idea what we're talking about. This is true. This is daylight savings, where someone somewhere made a decision. Let's just do this. What, half the country turns back their clock by an hour? Spring forward and fall back. Yeah. yeah So we're going to fall back. We're going to fall.
00:03:33
Speaker
We're in a fall. In astrology, that's a super negative term. That's when something's extremely out of alignment. It's like in its fall. Yeah. But okay, to answer your question, I feel like.
00:03:49
Speaker
Around this time of the year, I just start, like you pointed at it out, I just get really, really social. And I get really involved in my community. And that time is an illusion for me. Like, I will stay out later. Somehow I'm getting less sleep. i Like, I don't know. You're an enigma to me. And this is why I knew to ask this question, because it gives a very nice contrast. Right, because I feel like you've been plotting this out.
00:04:14
Speaker
Listen, here's the reality of the situation, okay? And this could be, I will say this could be different phases of life too, but I pretty much have the goal of being horizontal flat for about 12 hours every day at this time of year. I may not be unconscious, but I'm definitely lying flat. As soon as the sun goes down,
00:04:39
Speaker
It's done. We're done. I mean, we're wrapping it up. I mean, you've requested your post-birthday celebration to be done early, and we're going to make that happen for you. I appreciate that. Early on in the day, where the sun is still shining. So you don't feel the need for more rest?
00:04:56
Speaker
I mean, it sounds like no. It sounds like the opposite. It sounds like you actually get energized. I do. I do. I just, and I think it, you know, these seasons affect everyone differently. So what's so cool about us is we have, we're in totally different parts of the wheel.
00:05:15
Speaker
I mean, I'm a Gemini. My birthday's in May. True. My sole birthday in human design, you have two birthdays. Another reason to check out human design. So um my sole birthday is you know in February. Three months before, all right? Three months before your fiscal birth, approximately, give or take. and And so that gives me like a Pisces. So when i when I enter into that birth portal, it's which is what we call it in between your two birthdays, it gets it It shifts. Everything shifts. so And by time my physical birthday comes, I need rest. like I've pushed really hard usually. Okay. So in spring? yeah All right. you come so I'm the opposite. Right. So you probably like come alive. Yeah. I feel much more energized that time of year. Well, you've been working so hard in between your birth portal.
00:06:08
Speaker
Yeah, like that. That could be it. So it's not just to the darkness, but it's probably adding to it. Yes, it is for sure. Yeah. And if people want to know their birthdays, um, you can, I love genetic matrix. Yeah. It's a great, great website and you don't have to upgrade to the professional to be able to get that. Yeah. That's interesting. Yeah. No, I'm like, definitely. I love this time of year, even though I'm,
00:06:34
Speaker
I'm sleepier and more even more static than usual. I do love going inward. I love it. I love it so much. i just like Give me comfort and darkness. and like I don't even turn on lights in my house very much. yeah lou Low lighting yup in my bedroom.
00:06:56
Speaker
OK, this is a little biohacker thing, but it really does help is I took out the normal light bulb and put in the um red light bulbs because it emits the I forget which.
00:07:11
Speaker
what the name is of it, but it emits that red glow, which is much more, um, it's less disruptive to like your melatonin and your brain and it helps to get you ready for bed. Now I'm not saying I don't go on screens because that would be a lie. I do, but I also, yeah, have the little red light glow going on. Did your husband like come home from one of his trips and was like, what's up with the red light room? He's like, did we have a brothel in here. What's going on?
00:07:36
Speaker
That's what my neighbors probably think, because they see the red glow through the blind. I leave for one week, and you've started. I don't think much surprises him anymore. We've been at this a really long time. I don't think much surprises him anymore, and he just kind of rolls with it. I think you just keep it spicy. He's like, sure, red light room. Sounds good. Yep.
00:07:56
Speaker
Yeah, I bet he wants to. I mean, he doesn't. Yeah, well, clearly. and Yeah, he's not jumping on the bandwagon. Like he's not going in and getting a red light for himself. But he's like, oh, this is what we're doing. I would like to go in there. I understand. What happens in that room? What happens? I'm just curious. It is really nice though. It is because it just definitely like.
00:08:16
Speaker
creates a nice little ambiance. Yeah. I'm a big low light person. Yeah. Lamp or candles. I know. ah Salt lamps are another good option because they do put that nice orangey glow in the room.
00:08:30
Speaker
Oh, I know, but I am so excited. I do actually get, I don't necessarily get more energized, but I get excited this time of year. I also do like the preparation of, I don't, okay, here's the thing. You mentioned my birthday. yeah I'm not a big fanfare person when it comes to, we're not surprised, but not when it comes to like having the birthday and like what'd you do and all that, like no, ah it that feels very much like pressure to me. I don't wanna get into it. no Let's just keep it simple. like Yeah, you know I mean, you were really low key. It was on a Monday, too, this year. For sure. So it's kind of like. For sure, for sure. so the And then I also get like this anticipation for we go out of town the week of Thanksgiving, and it's a mountain getaway. um Nice. Yes. And so it's like the perfect contrast to the being an gratefully. I love living at sea level, but like I'm really excited to come back.
00:09:25
Speaker
Yeah. To the sea level. Well, and you get a break from your routine, like we talked about last time, and then you get to kind of re-immersed into it. Yeah. I'm not doing much at the mountains. I'm not planning you know a lot of activity, but just to have that time to be creative and inward and be in the different environment. So yeah, so that's going on. And I'm really looking forward to that. but then you know And also, the holidays get a little, I like the preparation more than the actual living it. Yeah. I think a lot of people would agree with that. Like it's fun to get, you know, nostalgic and kind of have things situated in a certain way. I do love that. And there is a certain energy and and mood. Coziness, love the cozy. Family coming together. Yeah. That's okay. I mean, I love my family, but that's like, there's a certain expiration on, on that yeah being energizing. I mean, ultimately you're still a cancer rising. That's the need for home family tradition. For sure.
00:10:24
Speaker
For sure, but then you're like also my 12-hour vert, you know, ah no horizont horizontal horizontal. Mm-hmm. Not vertical. now opposite No break just going going down Speaking of London, I have a trip coming up. I've been really immersed in the Gene Keys, which I spoke about yep in our first episode together and got to see Richard, the founder of Gene Keys in Colorado.
00:10:57
Speaker
It was beautiful. um So I'm going to go see and learn from him again in another two-day immersion in London. And it is I was looking at the calendar. It's been five years since I've been to London, which maybe to some people are like, I've been to London one time in my entire life. you know So maybe this sounds a little bit like, OK. But it's such a special place to me. yeah When I went there, there was Just felt like a little piece of my soul there. So to have waited that long to return, really is like, yeah. ah Oh, yeah. I love it there. I wonder what your astrogeography lines are there. Do you know? I know that my moon line kind of cuts through.
00:11:38
Speaker
part of europe so the sisterhood i get there the intuition i have heightened there um also i don't i don't experience my moon line anywhere here so it it just feels fresh yeah oh i love that yes and in fact we do share a synchronicity with the last trip that you had there am am i correct that that was your okay so here's the deal we didn't know yeah when we met, and even thereafter for a while, that we actually shared the same human design training back in November of 2019. That's right. Is that when you were in London? That's right. Yeah. What if I stayed for about a week? Jenna Zoe.
00:12:16
Speaker
That's right. And I was learning virtually. I did not go to London. I would love to. I've not been to London or England, but yeah, we share that in common, which is kind of a fun little synchronicity. I mean, there's a thousand trainings out there for, for these things, but.
00:12:33
Speaker
and because Back then, I don't know that that was as much. I mean, it was right before the world kind of shut down, 2019, end of 2019. And it was her first in-person session or training. And she decided, I'm going to do it live stream and hundreds, I think.
00:12:49
Speaker
Maybe, I don't know if it got into the thousands. She has a huge following um and an amazing app. But um it was awesome doing it in person. It was a great excuse for me. It was my first time going to Europe. So I was like, oh, heck yeah. And all the signs were there, um all the synchronicities. I had met a few friends that were astrology clients of mine that lived out there. So we ended up linking up and that was super cool.
00:13:16
Speaker
That's so fun. Like meeting in person. Well, I'm vicariously going to live through you, as I do. As you travel the world. You're like, go forth. Living you're sagitarius your your Midheaven and North Node. Sagittarius, all day. Very sagacious. Renee. Renee texted me and was like, um are you traveling in November? And I was like, yeah, I'll be in London for a week, you know end of November. Casual.
00:13:40
Speaker
I'm going to go study. Casual. Tell me I'm a Sagittarius North node without telling me. Exactly. And I knew there was, well, there is travel on the horizon usually, which is what prompted the question. Where are you going now? Where are you going? Let me get ahead of scheduling, because I'm thinking ahead. Love that. Yeah, I love that too. And we're going to talk about human design today. We are going to talk about authority.
00:14:08
Speaker
One of the most fundamental things to know about your human design is, aside from your um energy type, is your authority. So we're going to yeah we're gonna get into it and share.
00:14:23
Speaker
you know why that is beneficial and how and how to utilize that. And I love i love the the topic of, i love I love that human design also has these kind of easy chunks to it that you can sort of need to build upon yes and layer into. So let's talk about authority. you want yeah I think it's beautiful how you opened that. I was thinking today, like an analogy popped into my mind of when someone's learning how to drive a car,
00:14:52
Speaker
There's all these different technicalities of like, you know, it starts to get really in depth. You use a turn signal and you got to use your mirrors. And, you know, there's there's all these elements layered on, but at its foundation, you need to understand where the gas pedal and the brake pedal is for sure. So that's our type and authority. Oh, I like that. Like if you.
00:15:12
Speaker
like And I know we kind of skipped steps, but that's very Manny Gen. Because we talked about profiles. We're flowing you're flowing. We talked about profiles last episode, which is that's more of the turn signal. you know That's like how to work your windshield wipers, all that. But if you don't understand how to make the car go and make the car stop, forget about the profile. you know Forget about gates. Forget about channels, synestry, all of that. it's You need to understand who you are.
00:15:42
Speaker
which is the type, and then how to make decisions, which is your authority. So i love I love to harp on this, and our teacher did too. She really emphasized how important it is to understand your authority and then also decondition any part of you that keeps you from knowing that.
00:16:06
Speaker
So deconditioning maybe parents who raised you that had a different authority than you. Definitely. And typically what we do when we're guiding someone, we're like, do what I did. That's right. Do what I do. That's right. Because that feels good for me to give that to you. And you're like, that doesn't work for me.
00:16:21
Speaker
Yeah. And gosh, we always talk about this, like, what if children, you know, our parents, when in the hospital, like have the baby and they're like, hey, by the way, this is what you're working with. You've got like, yeah, you've got an ego projector. Good luck. Different. This is how you're going to work that one percenter. Mm hmm. Yeah. OK, cool. So what do you want to do? You want to talk about you want me to kind of flow through each authority? Do you think that'd be fun?
00:16:48
Speaker
Well, I think let's just back up for a second and say. Let's just take a break. For total break. But let's just say, because we did talk about ah profiles last time. And the very fundamental thing, if this is brand new information, is to know your energy type. which we haven't really gone into because it's talked about more commonly I think than anything else but yeah as you were saying genetic matrix is a good site to go to to look up your energy type do we want to just do a quick overview of the types I think that'd be helpful because I think it might be helpful I think also
00:17:30
Speaker
know that you you're going to need your birth information to to do all this. That's correct. Yeah. Birth time needs to be precise. um So there're in my opinion, there's five types. um I agree. Do you? Yeah. I mean, I don't like it when they lump together the personal preference.
00:17:49
Speaker
yeah the mannygens and the genn that's right right Yeah, and let's start there. So the energy beings are the generators and the manifesting generators. ah Traditional human design, they lump them together because they're both energy beings, um which I get, but also, wow, they're way different.
00:18:06
Speaker
Right. So those energy creatures, they make up the majority of the population. So the other three types are minorities and um you know decreasing in percentage from most elites. It's the projector, the manifestor, and the reflector. Right. Yeah. And when you're looking at your chart, the thing that makes you a generator or a manifesting generator is you're going to see some shapes.
00:18:30
Speaker
on your chart. It's really helpful to find someone that can walk you through your chart first, like one-on-one, although there's a wealth of information out there. Yeah. Yeah. You do human design ratings. I do. Call me. Call her. Who put her number on the bottom of the screen? Put that in there. code for a promo discount.
00:19:00
Speaker
Just kidding. Get in now. Yeah, get in now. Before it's too late. No. Gift with purchase. Wow, there's a gift? Smiles. You are the gift. Oh. I would say that you may not know what you're looking at, and that's OK and normal. Yeah, it's very normal. At first, there is a specific shape in that chart that is colored in or defined as they say that makes you a generator or a manifesting generator, whereas the other three types do not have that shape colored in. And that shape has to do with a life force energy. It's a battery that keeps on kicking. We're like, less light, let's do more. but Why not? yeah Let's defy gravity. Right. yeah All in all the time. I mean, of course there's caveats. But of course.
00:19:52
Speaker
But we're not talking about those. Generally speaking, the majority of society has this. That's right. I mean, yeah, approximately, give or take, 33% of the population are generators, 33-ish percent of the, or closer to 31% of the population are manifesting generators. So you combine that together, and we've got over 60%. We've got a lot of energy going on. Which we need. As makes sense. Yeah. Because everybody's playing, and there's no typist better than another. Everybody's playing their own contributing role. just ki I was like, except for Manny Jens. You guys can be a lot, but you know what? We can be a lot. We love you. We can be a lot. We love you. You help us, propel us. Every time I have a session with another manifesting generator, I'm like, listen, we're the best. And they're like, I knew it.
00:20:38
Speaker
I know. Yeah, they're like, I like that. Yeah, they do. Tell me more. I win them over. I capture that attention that can be like butterflying everywhere. So funny. so the Yeah, so the energy type is the first building block, the first thing to learn when you're driving your your human-designed car. That's right. you can go into that You can go into each section deeply. But speaking to authority,
00:21:03
Speaker
um i love I do think authority is very valuable because it helps us to make decisions in the way that we are uniquely designed to make decisions and none of us are designed to make decisions from a mental mind thinking like space. We all have some yeah some um guidance system within us that helps us um to really find higher highest alignment when making decisions. And yeah how many are there? How many? There's seven. Seven. Yeah. And it's your it's your internal compass. And as you look at this and learn this and same with the type, it's a reminder.
00:21:46
Speaker
It's all just a reminder of what you know and you'll you'll feel the resonance. the topic of authority that um i'm really The reason I'm excited to share the topic of authority is because I think that this is one of the areas of human design that helps us to release self-doubt.
00:22:07
Speaker
when we learn to trust our authority. And it releases the the pressure, like you were saying, about how other people necessarily approach decisions or um you know how they encounter life. So I think it's really one of the most useful things to understand. And when you start to experiment with it, I think it definitely, it it feels to me, and I do have one of the rarer authorities, it feels really um fulfilling.
00:22:38
Speaker
I, I'll speak to, you want me to speak to my authority first? Do it. Okay. Yeah. All right. So I am a self projected projector, which is also referred to like you saw as a voice ah authority 2.5% of the population. Okay. So rare, uh, for sure. And you know, I didn't know this information until, I don't know, what was that five years ago when I started studying this and You know, you see a lot of information about it that talks about having to talk things out, hence the name of it. And that's how um I can understand direction with making decisions, is using my voice. So it is interesting because
00:23:22
Speaker
We're here. Yes. I do feel very fulfilled when I use my voice. And sometimes, often, it's not necessarily, you know, I've heard different suggestions like taking voice notes and listening to yourself. back because it's not even necessarily the other person in the conversation. That's actually not that helpful when the other person is offering advice. It's just me being able to hear the sound of my voice. And it sounds kind of like obscure, but it is really when you start to experiment and embody it, it really does make a difference to hear myself talk out a problem or a you know looking for a potential solution.
00:24:09
Speaker
The actual tone of my voice will be very different if I am on the right track or it will be an indicator that I am not feeling something as much as I'm trying to maybe convince myself I am. Yes, that's a big one. Yeah.
00:24:29
Speaker
and you know I think it also, you know, it definitely, it, like I said, it definitely feels fulfilling. Now, some of the other authorities that we can speak to, um, that have like, for example, the splenic authority or what is that? And I love that they call it instincts. Nine percent of the population have a splenic authority and it's super spontaneous. Is it remind me, is it projectors that have, so only projectors have self projected.
00:25:02
Speaker
I think. i Gosh. I know. I stumped you. You did. right well Because I feel like a manifestor, yeah, I think needs a motor, but the throat. We'll have to get we'll have to get to the bottom of that. I'm pretty sure. so my and My instinct says that it's projectors that have it only. Yes, you're right. It says it in my book.
00:25:29
Speaker
That's great. Yeah, it says um only only projectors, manifestors can only be emotional, spleenic or ego. Okay. Yeah, which we're gonna get into that. But so projectors have the ability five different choices of the book has a little handy chart in it. It does, which is actually extremely handy. shows it Show the show the show the people the book.
00:25:54
Speaker
No, the front of the book. There it is. There it is. Oh, you gotta lift it up. We aren't sponsored by this book. No, but it is a very helpful book. I like the diagram on the inside when it comes to especially what I'm seeing about authority. Graphic. Yes, very helpful. Very helpful. Very helpful. Very informative. Very knowledgeable.
00:26:18
Speaker
Well, maybe lose your train of thought. So what I was going to say about spleenic, which is also known as instinct. Yes. I think it can be sometimes like, well, I have instincts and I have intuition. I have that. And not to say you don't, right? That's not it. It's just using your particular authority can really ah Like I said, it just offers another level of fulfillment when it comes to moving through decision making. So I believe the largest population um or percentage that has is is a sacral authority, am I right on that? it's so
00:26:58
Speaker
The emotional is actually 53% of the population, so solar plexus defined. Which is another shape in your chart. That's right. and if you i mean The emotional authority, any of the types except for the reflectors can be... can have this. So generator, mani-gen, projector, or manifestor, they have all have the potential to be an emotional authority. God knew that I was not patient enough to have an emotional authority. Oh my God. Because you have. That's right. you
00:27:31
Speaker
It's about waiting it is to feel your emotional wave all the way through, all the way through which you can speak to, because that's your authority. It's true. I think the key, if you have this authority, is giving yourself permission to take time to process. And your process what you're processing is the vast sort of well of emotions. OK. Yeah. and i i I have been very close to a few emotional authorities in my life. Actually, no one in my house is an emotional authority. Which is probably good. Yeah, probably good. I do have a lot of friends, um people in my in my world that are an emotional authority. And it's very interesting um to observe. What do you feel when you're around an emotional being?
00:28:22
Speaker
Well, that's interesting, because I do feel a lot. Because I actually don't have anything going on in that emotional center. So I take it all in. um Almost like, is it mine? I don't know. and And that can be what I experience, is I will feel very yeah strongly, or just triggered, or something will come up for me um that I'm catching that's like Not mine. Right. And just being in their proximity, or is it when they begin communicating or expressing something that you really start getting the hit of it? When they're expressing something. Sure. like when they're When they're emotional about something, I feel it. Wow. I feel it very deeply. Oh, yeah. And I feel...
00:29:12
Speaker
um
00:29:15
Speaker
it this is This is where you get into like, um and I think this could this this could be a whole other deep dive, but when you don't have an emotional emotional authority, which is 50% of the pop, more yeah around that, 50%.
00:29:29
Speaker
You may not realize that what you're feeling is actually not yours to begin with. This is such a good point, Renee. We could really we could really talk about this in particular because it most people don't know this, that they may be experiencing what other people are feeling and being Confused as if it is your own feeling and what's worse in my opinion is they then go trying to fix it, right? That was where I was going because I don't know if there's a correlation But I'm gonna venture to say that if you are a open emotional yeah Solar plexus you might be a little bit of an over-functioning codependent
00:30:12
Speaker
You heard it here first. You might be trying to help ah because you feel it, and it's uncomfortable, and you want up to do things or say things that will help your emotional friend move through their wave quicker because you don't want to be uncomfortable anymore. That's right. That's right. And honestly, we love you. Thank you. On behalf of all the emotionals. No, we need we need that space.
00:30:39
Speaker
you know We need partnership where we can feel, especially I think emotional beings that have done a lot of, that have increased their EQ, their emotional intelligence. They operate at a pretty high functioning spectrum.
00:30:58
Speaker
And when we have our lows, which all emotional beings do, we typically have tools that are kind to us and others to process through them, a.k.a. me go skating in a trail that moves through the woods, not necessarily calling my friend who I know and damper. Yeah. Yeah. and dump, and then I'm kind of just, I know on some level I'm just giving some of my emotions away. And then she has to go deal with that. And I don't often feel like I really honored it. Yeah. So I do think emotional beings, this is, again, totally just my experience and what I've witnessed with clients, really need to learn and develop tools to help them navigate melancholy, first off, highs and lows.
00:31:49
Speaker
Now and I think this is this is interesting because in observing in particular you and I will say that there is a distinct to your point a distinction of emotional authority that is self-aware and knows okay this is mine and it's on me to deal with this as opposed to perhaps those, whatever percentage it may be in the population out there walking around with us, that don't have any awareness that they are on this emotional wave, which is a high and a low, yeah and they are perhaps projecting that onto everyone and everything. um So thank you for your service.
00:32:41
Speaker
honored. Thank you for doing some internal work because for my observation of you, I don't know when you're in a low. I don't. It's not like an obvious. Which says a lot because you're a projector.
00:32:55
Speaker
Well, I think you're like literally here to be like, I see you. I mean, maybe a little here and there, but I mean, I don't I don't see big swings with you. I think of like a very, you know, wide range. Yeah, I had a lot more of them in my.
00:33:16
Speaker
in my childhood. And it's actually been really cool to revisit because i have a you can start getting into the specifics of emotional waves, which I would highly encourage if you're an emotional being. But one, going up to the throat, which was where a lot of rage and anger came from when I was a kid. And most of it went out to my brother. Yeah. Love you. Thanks for dealing with me. But what was cool was our core family dynamic, we were all emotional beings.
00:33:43
Speaker
Oh, wow. Yeah, so I think there was ah you know there was this feeling in the collective of the home that emotions happen. Everyone's kind of on their own wave, but like we stick it out. We stay together. you know there there It was kind of good conditioning for me to grow up in.
00:34:02
Speaker
Especially my mom being a generator. I'm a manifesting generator. You know, we have that energy. So getting into your family dynamics will be really helpful as you decondition and remember your authority and where you might have been told that's not right. Right. Right. Right. And also with children I think about that have an emotional wave.
00:34:23
Speaker
how um you know depending on the caretaker or how the messaging is conveyed when they are feeling a big feeling or needing to process how that's handled can be so um forming to their their experience. So I think the emotional authority, knowing if you're an emotional authority is probably one of the most important things to know about your human design because it really does Well, I'm sure it's somewhat of a relief to know yeah this about yourself. Yeah. nearly and And the one term one little caveat I'll give is that traditional human design will say if you don't have your emotional center defined, so if it's open,
00:35:14
Speaker
if you're any of these other six authorities, that you're a non-emotional. That's the common term. Right. And when I have a client sit down, and if I catch myself saying that, they're like, whoa, I'm actually extremely emotional. And I'm like, oh, yeah, because you feel everyone else's shit. But if you were to be on your own in the mountains, let's say, somewhere really peaceful, no technology for two days, no animals, nothing stimulating you, no people, just you being.
00:35:44
Speaker
You would be yeah right here. Absolutely. And then someone calls and you're like, whoa, you know, that's like really gets you excited. One of your best friends. And then all of a sudden you're on a high. That's not all of a sudden. Right. That's chemistry. So I really recommend also anyone that's a non-emotional, what we call it. So any other authority other than emotional.
00:36:07
Speaker
Do that. See if you can have a little one, two day, solo retreat, no technology, anything that gives you a feeling, like that gives you stimulation when we scroll on Instagram. You know, I noticed in a lot of non-emotional scrolling to like feel something. Yeah. Because yeah they think they need to. Right. That is really okay. You just gave me a whole lot to think about because I do feel ah I don't know what the word is. It's a bit of a void. Yeah. And I'm not, a hole I'm not looking for drama. I'm not like, you know, like, Oh, what, what fight can I get into or what kind of like, no, not at all. Like in fact, non, non-confrontational to the court, but.
00:36:53
Speaker
Yeah. It's like, I feel like if I don't engage whether, yeah, if the scrolling is a perfect example. It's like, I'm, I'm kind of like, am I going to miss something? Yeah. Am I going to not be getting ahead of something that I can then anticipate? It's an interesting, uh, it's an interesting thought. I think that, um, just those, just like you said, knowing that the distinction between the two, yeah Knowing the specific emotional wave you have, all of that is so empowering. And also, yeah, I mean, you're you're you're taking responsibility for like, oh, this is, yeah, this is where I'm at, but also the non-emotional taking responsibility too, where they're like, that's right I'm just going to observe. And that is actually my approach is, and I am kind of like that neutral,
00:37:49
Speaker
yeah you know, sort of space where I will just allow the emotional to have their moment. Yes. I am feeling all of it internally. Yes. But I'm not reacting. I'm not like, and that has taken some work where it's like, I'm not trying to fix anything or at least I try not to. Yeah. I'm just kind of like, OK, this is where we're at.
00:38:14
Speaker
Because the addiction piece that I was kind of hinting at there with the scrolling, yeah which is just one of the many ways we can get a hit of feeling something. Because some people, I mean, Y is one of the most popular genres of shows to watch drama. Why? Because we want to feel. We want to feel, even if it's bad,
00:38:37
Speaker
Like even if it's murder and mystery, yeah like we want to get in there and like, oh, like go through that ride. And it's it's exciting. But I think it's um yeah, I think it's important too to just I think final thing I'll say I'll say about emotional authorities is.
00:38:55
Speaker
Maybe the reason I feel in alignment for you pretty consistently is I've now built a life, because I've been working with this system for so long, that are genuine yeses to me because I've rode my emotional waves to make sure everything feels good.
00:39:15
Speaker
So I haven't lived my life like a sacral authority or a spleenic authority just saying, Oh yeah, or I don't want to miss out. Or let me think it through and be rational. Everything is, has processed through my authority. And so I built a life full of genuine yeses. And so I experienced those deep, deep lows a lot less.
00:39:37
Speaker
I love that for you. I do. Thank you. All right. Namaste. Namaste. Namaste. I acknowledge that. Yeah. All right. So sacral authority, also very common, I believe. Yep. Yep. It is 33% of the population are sacral authorities. Right. Now tell us about. They could be generators, manifesting generators. That's it. Those are the only two types that could be. And they are the ones that are meant to make a decision right here in the now. So if I were to say, Renee, would you like to go to lunch after this?
00:40:07
Speaker
Let's say Renee is a sacral authority. She could say, well, where? And then she could just say, well, yeah, I want to, or no. But if she's like, let me think on it. Let me get back to you. Then that's a no. So it's a immediate knowing. Yep. I've also heard that there's actually like a sensation attached to this. Yes.
00:40:30
Speaker
in the body, like in the quote unquote gut feeling. And sometimes there's a sound like, like um like, yeah, that sounds good. If you're a noisy person, you're probably, you're probably a sacral authority. I have a funny story. let's here I love my husband. I love that I tell his funny stories. He won't mind. This isn't that bad, but the, he's a sacral authority and he literally, when he eats,
00:40:58
Speaker
he o And I'm like somewhat triggered by this because it's like, what? What's going on over there? You really like that, huh? But it's that sacral authority letting him know this is good. And he doesn't even know he's doing it. No. It's so natural. It's so innate. it's But I love it. like I love how simple we can be.
00:41:23
Speaker
like When you start hacking humans, you start figuring out how they work. And if you want to love a sacral authority better, give them direct questions like, do you want to go to lunch with me? like Do you want to get married? like Yes, no, too like there is two options. not like Tell me how you feel about this. Oh, no. like Where would you like to eat on your birthday? It's like they will be speechless. Speechless and annoyed.
00:41:53
Speaker
My son is a sacral authority too. Oh, is he? OK. He likes it. He's pretty dress dry direct. straight Straight shooter. And you know what's cool is usually people will love in the way they want to be loved. They'll ask in the way they want to be asked. So I notice my sacral peeps are real direct with me.
00:42:10
Speaker
They're like, are you coming or not? I'm like, well. And for emotionals, we're like, that would need a little more room to breathe with that. I need a maybe wedged in there. Can I sleep on it? Can I get back to you? Exactly. OK, so we have emotional, sacral we talked about. I talked about self-projected. We got the spleen, the instincts. And then the spleenic is instinctual. And that is a little bit similar, I feel like, to sacral, because it's just kind of a knowing. Yep. Right?
00:42:38
Speaker
so It's fleeting. It's quick. You got to catch it. You got to know what you're looking for, kind of, right? Yes. And i will I love that. And I would just add for spleenic authorities that I see that are really in alignment, have built up a life where they've honored their spleen, they are so fun to be around. They are so spontaneous, yeah so playful. Good time. Oh, life of the party. Yeah. Yeah.
00:43:05
Speaker
For sure. All right, and then um ego manifestor is or ego man. What is it? Ego authority. Yeah, ego authority. This is only projectors and manifestors, right? Yeah. um No, only...
00:43:22
Speaker
So the chart broke this down as ego manifested, ego projected. So yeah. Manifestor or projector could be. Tell us about. Ego. How they operate with their authority. So Heather, who we spoke about on the last episode, is an amazing healer locally in town here in Wilmington. And she is a very, very special ego, manifestor.
00:43:47
Speaker
they bring this heart energy. So it speaks about it as like the willpower. I love to think about it like when they make a decision, it has to align with every single thing that they believe in value. I mean, it it really is just like a heartbeat. So when they move in their world and they're in alignment, it's Everything is just so them. It's such a unique experience. like Even when I think of Heather being such a beautiful example, her branding, her style, her tone of voice, her offerings, everything has such a beautiful grounded earthy presence. True. Earth tones.
00:44:35
Speaker
grounded voice. I mean, it's just everything's on brand. And, um, and so these people are very unique, very individualized, and they literally are here to follow their heart. That's awesome. They're beautiful. Yeah.
00:44:52
Speaker
And they do well with soundboarding as well. Talking it out, hearing themselves talk, and having a trusted friend to say, hey, I heard you say you don't want to date anymore because you're disappointed right now. Is that is that how you really feel? And they can be like, did I say that? Oh, this is how I really feel. And they can kind of massage it. Yep.
00:45:16
Speaker
What's the left? We have, um it they're calling it, Well, environmental authority. I don't think I know what that is off the top of my head. Mental. Mental. Yeah. that that Those are probably the one type that can get away with thinking it through. Right. My younger brother is a mental authority. So it's been interesting. Our house, as I mentioned, full of emotionals, and then the last one to enter the family. He's thinking about you all.
00:45:44
Speaker
All the time. what but i'm sure and I'm sure it's just all about us. No, I'm kidding. um They always have very fixed opinions. They're here to um think things through, as I mentioned, but to really really just weigh the pros and cons to make the plan, rewrite the plan. ah They're meant to talk about it as well, and they're meant to share their opinion, share their idea, but the reason it's so often referred to as environment is because they're so open. Sensitive to their environment. Very. So they become who and what they surround themselves with. I know that can be said for so many humans, but I guess just like underline and bold it for these humans. right
00:46:29
Speaker
If their space is messy, if their relationship is toxic, I mean, it will just debilitate them on some level or another just because they're so sensitive.
00:46:41
Speaker
Yes, I've heard that. That there's definitely an importance i mean for all of us to be in it a nurturing, healthy environment. Definitely. They're less resilient. Yes, yes, yes. Equally, they are amazing. And this kind of starts getting us into the reflector and and final authority.
00:47:00
Speaker
um They're amazing at feeling a pulse of a place. so they see that They can become different versions. like It's not always good or bad. It's like they could become extremely theatrical in a certain place you know or like um extremely wise. like I've seen my brother be so many different versions. It's really fun. That is interesting. Yeah. True chameleon. Truly.
00:47:25
Speaker
And then the lunar authority is our reflector friends. And reflectors don't have any sort of or any shapes um defined in their entire chart. They're very lunar beings. They um are very rare. Like, I think, what, 2% of the population? One or two. yep Yeah. Yeah. So reflectors are pretty rare to come across. And their authority is unique to them. And it is the lunar authority. And that is about waiting a full moon cycle. That's right.
00:47:51
Speaker
28 days like or roughly there, like a true cycle before making an important decision. I think that's a good distinction too. We're talking mostly about big decisions here. you know i mean Sure, you can use these when you're talking about what restaurant to go to or what to... you know Yeah. What to eat for lunch. But if you are you know faced with something that is going to be have weight to it, yeah having the opportunity to explore this could really help you navigate it. And our lunar friends, they need a lot of time to go through the full cycle of how they feel. Yep.
00:48:31
Speaker
ah how they and how they that it I mean, I guess that's what the word we're using, but it's kind of to, they're meant to knowing. Yeah. And to wear it, like mirror it back to themselves. Like does this job suit me? Can I see myself in this job? and and maybe noticing how they would have to dress to play that role in that job. um you know I've had many clients that are, not many actually, that's not true. I've had a few um that are reflectors and we often are talking about their relationships because you know they usually are with people who have narcissistic tendencies. yeah
00:49:14
Speaker
Now, of course, this is all shadow stuff i'm I'm speaking about, but it's something for reflectors to be very aware of. And i I said this, the mental is sort of like going into reflector territory because they're so open, you become who you're around. So oftentimes, reflectors will ah well ah attract people that really just want to see themselves mirrored back to them. Right. Do you know what I mean? I can see that.
00:49:37
Speaker
or that they feel they could easily sort of control and manipulate. And so I think the more reflector, and I had an amazing reflector in my last cacao training, she was so anchored and rooted and solid in who she was that I could just tell she had found the strength in her openness.
00:49:58
Speaker
which is the potential to be, I would say, the most intuitive of all. I was going to say the moon intuition makes sense that this is like maybe not a feeling. It's like, yeah, it's like a channel, like a knowing an intuitive knowing. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So any other ah points about authority that you think our listeners would benefit from knowing? um I think one thing that was helpful, this just popped in, was um looking at different celebrities or artists so interesting yeah that have your same authority might be really helpful. That's so interesting.
00:50:34
Speaker
yeah Yes, and there's such a lot of that information out there these days. There is. Lots of different accounts and things like that that go into those deep dives on celebrity charts and so forth. Yeah, it's kind of nice to see someone that's so public or like Sandra Bullock is a reflector. So you've gotten to see all the different roles she's played have been so distinctly different. Yeah.
00:50:57
Speaker
and in some of her relationships, too. yeah For sure. Well, that was a ah hopefully an insightful conversation to hear on ah authority. And if you know your authority or if you're curious to know your authority, definitely let us know. um Christina can definitely walk you through the more well beyond that. but It is one of the parts of the human design chart that can really serve you in knowing and also um help you to you know operate from your most authentic place and kind of tune out the noise maybe of what someone else is doing or how they're operating and really focus in on okay this is what is aligned for me because
00:51:38
Speaker
I mean, there's no shortage of everything people telling you to do. And even, you know, when you get into human design and tools like this, sometimes there's like these, I don't want to say rules, but there's sort of guidelines. yeah But you hear, you know, people all the time that are like, this is what I eat for breakfast. And I think they're coming from a place of trying to help.
00:52:00
Speaker
But you have so much innate knowing and power within you. yeah And what this does is help you to um move closer to yourself. That's right. Right? That's right. I mean, and how what a wonderful world it is and will continue to be.
00:52:20
Speaker
where everyone is in their truth, in their power, individual and bringing and like everything that we shared. I hope we took a moment to at least highlight the beauty of each authority and the gift that it brings to the collective. So remember your gift, hone it.
00:52:40
Speaker
work it and bring it work it thank you so much for listening to us for you know taking the time to to tune in and to give us your attention i hope this information is serving you and yeah let us know how this lands for you leave us a comment um if you are watching on youtube or ah you can find us over on instagram at we're posting right now well we're co-posting on both of our yeah our socials so mine is vibe with intuition and the blonde priestess the blonde priestess and yeah we'll see you back here um in a couple weeks i'm excited me too thank you
