Reflector with Mental Authority
You are a Reflector with Mental Authority. Your Strategy is to Wait the Full 28-Day Lunar Cycle. Your decisions emerge through: No inner authority. Environment, people, and the accumulation of perspectives over time provide the clarity. Not a motor-driven process — an outer, receptive one.. Reflectors have Lunar Authority — the 28-day lunar cycle is always the decision-making mechanism, regardless of profile. No inner authority means the right environment and people inform their clarity.

Reflector Type Mechanics
Reflectors are the rarest type — all 9 centers open. The living barometer of community health. A 28-day lunar cycle is needed before making major decisions. Deeply sensitive to environment.

Mental Authority — How It Works
For Mental Projectors (no defined centers below the Throat/Ajna), there is no consistent inner signal. The environment and the specific people around them carry the authority. Moving between environments, talking to different people, and allowing perspectives to accumulate is the decision-making process. The "right" decision is the one that feels consistently right across different environments and conversations.
Practical application: Don't make decisions alone. Move your body into different physical spaces. Talk to diverse trusted people. Notice which direction feels consistently right when you're in environments that genuinely support you — not ones that drain you.
Not-self pattern: Trying to decide in isolation or from a single environment. Making decisions based only on logical analysis (the mind is not the authority here). Staying in environments that condition you toward decisions that aren't correct.
