Welcome to Human Design powered business.

(00:02):
I'm Victoria Gibson and every week I am sharing how you can harness your human design tounlock more flow, leverage and opportunity within your business
So let's dive in.
Hello, This is the fourth part of my kickoff series the six essential elements to a humandesign powered business.

(00:25):
I've already published three episodes where we talked to the first, the first
essential element being your path, which is reflected in your human design in your lifetheme or incarnation cross.
The second being your program, which you can find in your energy type in human design andyour strategy encoded within that.
And the third being personality, cutting across your profile in human design, yourconscious sun and a little of your conscious mercury as well and how you share that and

(00:54):
bring that forth in business.
create more results with less effort and really find your flow again.
So the fourth element is power.
And why I call it power is it's how you harness energy within your human design.
And where we look to that is within what is called a human design, our definition.
We have nine energy centers within our human design.

(01:16):
And whether or not
we have consistent access to these centers and what they represent is defined by, what iscalled channels where, we've got these paths to lighting up the centers and when they
connect, we get some definition and consistent access.
And how that definition within the nine centers determines for us, our authority.

(01:37):
it's one of
the easiest things to take and apply actually from human design, which I know can be quitecomplex And I'm trying to keep even this overview series, as simple as possible so you can
get a sense of how, there's so much hidden gold within our design and having a humandesign powered business and that you're not missing, one business success strategy.

(01:58):
You're just missing the awareness of
pulling this all together and having an understanding of how those six elements come intoplay for you, for your purpose, for your peace, for your profit, and for you to, get in
flow in business again and bring your, you business back in sync with your purpose.
So let's talk to that power and that authority where we look to your energy centers andhow they're defined

(02:23):
So there are six key kinds of authority that you'll likely see in your life chart.
So if you haven't got yours, go ahead to victoragibson.com to grab your copy and it willdetermine your authority.
And in the free human design type report, I'll actually give you an explanation of yourunique authority in there as well, So just briefly to give you an overview, there are six

(02:47):
key types.
biggest one being emotional authority.
so if you have your emotion center defined in your human design then you have a decisionmaking process that can be influenced by your emotions.
so that can to drive your business.
So having emotional upsets and ups and downs is part of life and

(03:10):
in your human design, when you have this center defined, you will be subject to a lot moreemotional ups and downs.
And depending on our experiences and how, we've processed those and learned, certain waysof being, you're going to find that they have the ability to railroad you.
And you also may have the ability to take others off track with your emotions.

(03:32):
And you might find that shows up.
in your business, your interactions, your relationships, some of the opportunities.
You might be more inclined when you're not following this authority, when you're notpaying attention and making decisions from a place of calmness, emotional clarity, And
waiting for any surges of inspiration, excitement, FOMO.

(03:55):
disappointment, resentment, if we have our emotions defined or that emotional authority,then what happens is that it can lead us to making some regretful decisions that don't
serve us.
you want to be
making decisions from a place of emotional clarity and calmness, not impulsivity, notexpectation, not excitement, not inspiration.

(04:21):
Yeah, sure, we wanna be inspired but you need to generally wait to make the right decisionand get in touch with that place of being calm, So you really want to be...
looking for that place of emotional clarity in your interactions with others, particularlyin business and the decisions that you make.

(04:42):
The second type of authority is sacral authority.
When we talk to that, that is identified at the core of being a generator or a manifestinggenerator So your type
you would be a generator or a manifesting generator to have this as your authority.
So that doesn't mean, you know, it doesn't automatically mean because you have your

(05:04):
sacral authority that gut response of, this is a yes or this is a no, because that sacralenergy once committed can't be stopped easily.
So you want to recognize and.
embrace that at all times.
The third authority
is splenic authority.
Okay.
So if you don't have emotions or sacral defined or colored in, then and you have yourspleen center defined, then you have splenic authority.

(05:32):
And this is one of the most instinctive, intuitive, quickest authorities to makedecisions, which can be great, but it can take a while to tune into
likely when you have this authority you can have a great level of kind of discernment andtaste and understanding of what is right for you.
So it will be easier for you to decide on the fly a little bit more.

(05:55):
And really tapping into that intuition and instinct that are, that are hallmarks of this.
So it gives you more of that.
instantaneous yes or no, particularly in business.
And you'll be able to respond a lot quicker and adapt as well, which is great for thosewho have Splenic authority.
The fourth is will ego or heart authority.

(06:17):
This happens only for projectors and manifestors.
So it's a lot more rare.
and it means that, you need to, employ your will in making decisions.
Okay.
So, if you're a manifesto, like I am with, and heart authority or ego authority, then youare a catalyst for a lot of, you know, activities that are about your will and your drive

(06:42):
to that desire.
And the the biggest thing to pay attention to here and making decision in is that you areclear in your heart of hearts about what you want, So it is about following that heart's
desire, which in a world where we're conditioned that we can't generally easily have whatwe want, that can be a difficult one to make sense of.
And another layer of meaning of that for me is that, yes, I can see where

(07:07):
there's a lot of drive to move forward and ahead and a lot of drive with the clients thatI work with in, igniting that with force, that opportunity to move ahead, to charge more,
to know your worth, because the heart center is the place where, your sense of worth comesup.
So if you're not embracing
your own worth and you're not seeing your own self-worth, it can throw off that authority,That's where we move into a lot of people pleasing, taking in other people's influence and

(07:36):
not making the best decisions for you.
So it's taking me a lot of practice and perseverance to really understand how I can bestharness this authority and pay attention to what my desires really are, not, get swayed by
others or get swayed by my own lack of self-
worth.
So cultivating that self-worth is really, really important.

(07:58):
And the also the understanding for me knowing that when I do serve my desires, I'm goingto be serving others.
it sounds like it's going to be this really sort of selfish.
I kind of call it an excuse to be an asshole, but it's not because when you follow itcorrectly, when you know your own self-worth, then you're going to have the ability to
help others.

(08:18):
serve others and serve their transformation or results as well.
Then there's self-authority.
this is, potentially quite a sensitive and very personal authority that you need to get intouch with.
It's not as easy to just say, right, okay, just pay attention to yourself, It needs tohave a bit more of the, you know, the quiet

(08:40):
time and understanding to work through that you want to be thinking about, where are yougetting pulled off center?
What is going to serve you?
What is going to be in your best interests by having that beautiful identity centerdefined that you do?
You know who you're here to be in this lifetime.
You know, instinctively, what is right for you.

(09:02):
So it's really making sure that you have that alignment there.
And then there's outer authority or it can be called environmental authority.
So if you're a reflector, you have this because you don't have any of your centersdefined.
So you need to go outside yourself to look for, to make those decisions.
And outside yourself in this instance, generally for a reflector is waiting andunderstanding is it a decision that is coming from

(09:31):
your true nature and it's going to be serving you rather than just directly from othersinfluence.
So where can you go to look for that then it's talked about as kind of lunar authoritywaiting for a cycle of the moon to see if you're still wanting to go ahead right to see if
that's still staying true for you then that will be the right decision for you.

(09:52):
So quick decisions in business as
are having an environmental or lunar authority are not, are not advised, So I really loveunderstanding how, you know, we can harness more power in our business by using human
design and authority is one of the best ways to do that.
And even looking at
deeper within those energy centers and where they're defined and where they're not andwhat they represent,

(10:17):
So definitely go ahead to the website and grab your life chart so you can see what yourauthority is because I go into, a description of your unique authority there too.
So don't miss that.
And then come and join me for the next element that I'm going to go through, which is allabout profit.
And I can't wait to see you there.
