Inner Authority is the place within us where reliable, authentic decisions are ultimately made — after Type and Strategy have been honored.
This topic delves deep into Human Design, and a detailed discussion of all possibilities goes far beyond the scope of this overview. Here, however, you’ll get a first glimpse of the different forms of Inner Authority:
Authority in the Solar Plexus Center:
You are an emotional being and definitely need time to reach clarity.
Authority in the Sacral Center:
Make your decisions from the gut — follow your body’s energy.
Authority in the Spleen Center:
You are someone who can — and should — rely on your body’s intelligence and instincts.
Authority in the G Center:
You are someone who feels pulled in a certain direction and must be fully aligned with the things that are right for you.
Authority in the Ego Center:
Make your decisions based on your willpower — this is a force, not a thought!
No Inner Authority:
Make your decisions slowly and only after sufficient communication and exchange with others.
Each open center, when functioning correctly and shaped by life experience, can become an outer authority for others over time.
