Ego Manifestor

Ego authority in a Manifestor is a truth that sounds in speech: the Heart is connected to the Throat, and the will is expressed in words. What matters is not what you think over, but what you say when you aren't trying to steer your speech.

How the type and the authority work together

The Manifestor's strategy is to inform, so speaking comes naturally. The false self always tries to edit the words; as soon as speech comes from the head, the link with the authority is lost. The real decision often surprises the Manifestor as much as those who hear it.

How to make decisions

Talk about the decision out loud and listen to yourself. Don't prepare the words in advance — what slips out by itself is the truth. The Heart is the motor of the will: promise only what you truly want, then inform those it will affect.

Traps

  • Saying what's "proper" instead of what you really want.
  • Making promises you have no will for and wearing yourself out.
  • Not informing others about your decisions.

Manifestor: the initiator who needs to inform

The Manifestor makes decisions on its own and needs no one's advice. It lives in its own fast rhythm and can find it hard to accept that others don't keep up. Its aura is closed and tangible: people become wary, so a Manifestor's intentions are often read as rudeness or arrogance, though the most accurate word for it is self-sufficient.

When a Manifestor is restricted or pushed to change its mind, anger appears. Constant anger costs a lot of energy and over time can switch the Manifestor off: no strength is left to initiate. The remedy is to explain to people what you are doing and why instead of brushing them off.
