You've pulled your Human Design Chart and discovered that you have Sacral authority - so what exactly does that mean?
When a piece of art is calling to you (or you have any big decision to make), here’s how to decide whether it’s right for you: With Sacral Authority and art, ask yourself, ‘Do I want this in my home?’ and notice your body’s immediate yes or no.
With any other decision, ask yourself 'Do I want to?' and 'Do I have the energy for this?' The sacral does not speak in words, instead in sounds. "Uh-huh": is a rising grunt or sound that signifies a clear yes, agreement, or that your body has the energy available to commit to something. "Uh-uh" (or "Nuh-uh") is downward or flat tone that means no, a lack of resonance, or that your body does not have the sustainable energy for that task right now.
If you’d like to try this for yourself, take a look at my framed canvas prints and notice how you respond to the art. The Lover, pictured below, is one place to begin.
YOUR AUTHORITY
Your defined sacral is designed to be the source of your decision-making. (There is an additional nuance if you have Emotional Authority, and you will find an additional page if this is the case for you). This sacral energy is one of the things that make you a Manifesting Generator – it’s a life-force sustainable energy, here to be in service of creation and sexuality alongside the capacity to care for and nurture those creations. Deep in the body, it’s the wisdom before thought. Its motor hums along all day and lets itself be known to you and others through the sounds uh-huh (for yes) and nuh-uh (for no). Or sometimes a body sway back and forth.
An extreme way to get a sense of what I mean here – read these questions and notice your body or the sounds that come from it:
‘Would you like to eat a plate of raw offal right now?’
‘Would you like to sleep tonight?’
I’m hoping you noticed what happened before the mind jumped in.
A simpler (and more pleasant) way to experience this bodily knowing is to pull out your to-do list right now. As you go down the list, ask yourself ‘Do I have the energy for this right now?’ The sacral will respond with a uh huh and nuh-uh.
Write down the projects/work you are currently engaged in. Go down that list ‘Does this light me up?’ Your body knows.
It might be that your body responds with ‘no’ or zero response to all of the above, which simply means the sacral motor is burned out and fully off. Such wisdom in that lack of a sacral ‘yes’. In that case, make a list of anything you do that you enjoy while in the process of doing it. Not what gives you joy because of the end result, but in the actual doing of the thing. It could be sitting in the sun for a moment or two. Drinking a fine glass of wine. Working with a particular client. Getting into bed at night. Simple things. These are the things that, even if they don’t make you light up like a beacon, are a gentle glow. Start to notice. Start to honour the things that make you glow. Do more of that. And the motor will become stronger, the more it is used.
And it is the source of your sustainable energy to engage with the work that lights you up.
