Lunar
Authority
Clarity takes a full lunar cycle, roughly twenty-eight days.
How lunar authority works
A Reflector has no defined centres, so there is nothing fixed to consult. What there is instead is a complete sampling of the transit wheel over a month, which means a decision looks genuinely different at different points in the cycle.
How to actually use it
For anything major, wait the twenty-eight days and talk it through with trusted people across that time. The pattern that repeats across the whole cycle is the real one.
The mistake: Deciding in a day. It will be someone else's decision, taken while you were amplifying them.
Authority is not type
Your type tells you how your energy is meant to move. Your authority tells you where a real yes registers in your body. Two people of the same type with different authorities decide completely differently, which is why type alone is not enough.
Centres, gates and channels come from the same tables the bodygraph is drawn from. Human Design was assembled in 1987; Six Mirrors reads it beside five older systems and shows where they agree.
