Manifesting a Job: Generator, Emotional Solar Plexus Authority, 6/2 Profile
Okay, I got the human design chart for the anonymous poster I replied to earlier. And here’s probably her primary issue: the poster is indeed a Generator, but has an emotional authority, not a sacral authority. I’ll get into that difference in a moment.
I always want to start with the profile lines when I see the 6/2 profile, because these women always come to me presenting with career questions. Every time. And here’s why. This is the profile of the Role Model/Hermit, and it can be confusing when you’re on this life path and it feels really different than what you were expecting or what you feel inside of you. The 6/2 life path is unique from all other profiles in that it’s split into 3 parts, 3 very specific stages of life.
The first stage of life for a 6/2 is the first 28-30 years, ending with the completion of the Saturn return. Now, the Saturn return (which happens at age 28-30 or so, for everyone) is significant for everyone, but it really is a huge turning point for 6/2s particularly, beginning the second stage of their life path. The third stage of their life path begins after age 50 (or so) after the completion of the Chiron return. Again, the Chiron return happens around age 50 for everyone, and is significant for everyone, but is most significant for a 6/2. The 6/2 doesn’t really come into their own until after the Chiron return.
This doesn’t mean that nothing good or fun happens before that. Rather than being discouraged, the young 6/2 should allow themselves to take some pressure off of the natural unfolding of things. You may sense you are destined for great things. You may feel you aren’t meeting your potential. Know that it isn’t time yet. There is a specific time frame to things unfolding for you in this life path.
The first stage, the first 30 years of a 6/2s life, should be spent in hands-on, experiential learning. This will be your natural inclination and it’s very important because these are the stories you will use in telling Your Story later on as a Role Model. So it’s very important that you follow your innate desires to experience many things. And it’s nice to know you can’t really “mess it up” because you are meant to make mistakes and just get messy in this stage of your life.
As you near age 29/30, Shit Will Start To Get Real. At this point, you will find yourself drawn to make some changes. It’s time to become more observational. This completes the experiential stage of your life and now it’s time to observe other people and start connecting the dots. You will begin to step into your Role Model role but don’t worry, it’s mostly practice at this point. You’re still learning and preparing for that third stage, but now you’re learning through observing other people. You notice that other people tend to look to you for guidance and you begin to accept this. This is how you will complete your mission in life. (Your mission in life is your incarnation cross. How you complete it is your Profile Lines. If you are a 6/2 it is through being a Role Model.) By the way, the Hermit (line 2) means that when you occasionally withdraw your energy to make time and space to regenerate, that really does draw people towards you more. So it’s ok to withdraw when you feel the need (I call it Hermiting) and know that people and opportunities will come knocking.
This ask came from a young woman in her early 20s, so I would advise her to take any kind of job that kind of interests her, and trust that “the dots will connect down the line” as Steve Jobs advised, even when it doesn’t seem to make sense now. That leads us to our next point.
Sacral Response and Emotional Authority
This is a little confusing, I know, because I have this combo-- all Generators and Manifesting Generators have a sacral response, but for some that’s also their Inner Authority-- Sacral Authority (their correct decision-making process). For those of us with an Emotional or Solar Plexus Authority process, it’s a little different.
The sacral response that all Generators have gives us an immediate gut feeling that tells us to move forward on something (”yes”) or to wait (”not yet”) or just a straight “no” if it’s not resonating at all. The world really tries to separate us from our innate trust in our sacral response, and this asker has already learned to trust her sacral response, so she’s already ahead of the game! However the straight “yes/no/not yet” system isn’t the whole decision-making process for those with Emotional Authority.
When I first read about my Emotional Authority, of course it resonated with me, because I am very emotional, but I thought that making emotional decisions was a good thing. I valued and honored my emotions for the information they provided, and if I was afraid, I listened to that and avoided something, and if I was excited about something, I went for it. This is not the success strategy for Emotional Authority.
If you have an Emotional Authority, you must go through your entire emotional process, feeling your highs and your lows, and then return to a calm and even-tempered place, BEFORE YOU CAN MAKE A DECISION. We still honor the feelings, we still feel all of them. But we wait for the whole emotional wave to process fully, before we commit to anything. We don’t make decisions out of fear or happiness or joy and we also don’t ignore feelings and just use logic instead. We feel all the feelings, allowing them to inform us with the spectrum of emotional wisdom, and THEN we know what to do-- um, mostly.
You see, unlike a Sacral Authority, who usually KNOWS like she knows like she KNOWS what is the right thing to do (because DUH her decision-making process is quick and easy), an Emotional Authority will only ever feel like 80% sure of anything. So that’s okay. Know that 80-ish percent is your version of 100% certainty. That’s as clear as things are going to get.
So when looking for a job, allow your sacral response to kind of root out what’s a clear “no”, and what just does not resonate. Then, with things that seem like a “sure, proceed” energy, you will have to go through your emotional process before being able to fully commit. And because you are 6/2 in your first stage, you’ll want to EXPERIENCE it, and then sit with how you feel about that, and then the knowing will come afterwards. You are not waiting for that EXCITEMENT or that FEAR, let them both arise if they will. Wait for the lull after the emotions. Then you’ll feel 80% certain. Decide from that place.
How to find these job prospects-- for a 6/2 Generator in stage 1, it will be a combination of going out into the world and experiencing things hands on, and then drawing energy back in and letting people come to you. There’s a Push and Pull energy. Because you are in stage 1, and an Emotional Authority, don’t be afraid to just try something new to feel it out, but don’t make a big commitment to anything until you’ve felt it out first. Do try to keep your commitment levels low since you will need lots of freedom in this stage of your life.
Because you have an Emotional Authority, it’s natural for you to have Big Emotional responses to life, like all that anxiety and fear around your career course. Know that THIS IS HOW YOU MANIFEST. This is YOUR process. So you know, it’s actually perfect! Just remember two things: 1. Don’t make decisions when you’re IN the emotional wave. Just surf the wave. Even if it’s a high--don’t make decisions our of joy or excitement, either. 2. Don’t IDENTIFY with your emotions. You are not your emotions. A bad day is not a bad life. A good day doesn’t mean you have nothing left to learn. It’s just a day. There will be more ups and downs. You need the whole wave to manifest your dreams, the highs and the lows, again and again. Observe your feelings, honor your feelings, but don’t let them BE you or RULE you.
I hope this helps! If anyone else wants me to explain their human design chart, send me an ask or a message with your info and I’ll get to it when I have time.
