The truth about Emotional Authority
When spiritual bypassing meets Human Design, it might sound like “Don’t believe anything your mind tells you when you’re in a low wave”
In truth, yes- a lot of your thoughts during a low will be unrealistically pessimistic/unhelpful. But your low also contains important realizations regarding what’s truly not working in your life. If you simply disregard all ‘negative’ thoughts, you may miss out on valuable insight on how to close the gap between the life you’re currently living, and the life you most desire.
Navigating emotional authority means cultivating an awareness of how your wave is always coloring your perceptions. It’s comforting to understand when you’re in a low wave, that this is distorting your ability to perceive your situation clearly and things aren’t nearly as bad or hopeless as they seem. But you also aren’t perceiving clearly when you’re in a high, you’re looking at everything through rose colored glasses. And if you make a quick decision while in a neutral mood, you might be lacking the holistic awareness that only comes from riding out the highs and the lows, noticing how something feels to you when you’re at all different points in your wave.
Anyways: I often observe that people with emotional authority will continually get the same hit when they’re in a low wave, perhaps that something is off in their relationship. Or a goal they’ve been pursuing is not actually what they want. Or they actually aren’t ready or qualified to do what they’re trying to do… and sometimes this is truly just their low wave distorting- but other times, the perception actually has a lot of truth!!!! And it’s a truth that’s hard to see/admit when you’re more neutral or high. It’s true to change courses or let go, even if the truth is inconvenient or ‘negative’. And if you ignore this and cling to positivity, you prolong your misalignment and it’ll only get more uncomfortable and harder to ignore.
Emotional authority is processed based. Don’t take decisive action when you’re in your low, but also don’t fully disregard the insight you’re receiving. See how something feels when you’re at all different points in your wave. With time, a holistic awareness will emerge and you will arrive at a clear decision.
