The self projected Authority



"Be True to Yourself"


This is your strategy if the Emotions, Sacral, and Spleen are all undefined, and either the Heart is defined to the Self, which is not defined to the Throat, or the Heart is undefined and the Self is defined to the Throat. 

The Self Authority is quite different from the other authorities.

It provides a subtle inner guidance as delicate as a butterfly's touch in the way it alerts you, and yet it's as robust as an ox in its execution.

That's because it's all about inner knowing.

If you have this authority, your correct decision-making process is rooted in a "knowing" which only you can begin to comprehend.

It is, perhaps, the most difficult authority to grasp, until you get the hang of recognizing its signals, accuracy, and rightness.

It arrives, gently and sometimes unannounced, as a realization that should not be suppressed.

It is an innate sense of knowing that could not be associated with any other authority.

Quite simply, it just "knows" what is right and what is wrong in uniquely personal terms.

Where does this knowing rise from?

I tell those with the Self Author­ity to move their attention to the sternum, the midcenter of the rib cage.

It is here that a physical sensation brushes you, emanating from the Self.

Those who have it will recognize it and must trust it implicitly.

Your decision will be heard as something like: "I just know it. I can't explain it, but I just know it.

"The key is not to be dissuaded from this knowing because it can come across as woolly and is susceptible to being bulldozed by the emotions, gut responses, intuitions, and willpower of others.

It's as if they have a greater authority than you.

But start to trust your inner knowing as the most reliable of confidantes.

With this authority, you have the design of Barbra Streisand, Mick Jagger, or Steven Spielberg, who are Projectors as well as natural-born leaders.

You provide leadership, according to the recognition invitation process that you require.

As a leader, you need to exercise your Self Authority with caution, though, because it is easy to get swept up in oth­ers' endeavors that you don't have the energy to complete.

What you commit to has to have meaning to your life.

But this requires you to trust in your true nature more than any other authority.
