The Subtle Signs of a Correct Decision
A Guide for Your Experiment
When you begin living your design, one of the first discoveries is how different a correct decision feels compared to the ones your mind used to make.
You start to notice that correctness isn’t always about certainty, logic, or even confidence. Sometimes it’s quiet. Sometimes it doesn’t make sense. Sometimes it feels like nothing at all — just ease.
In The Experiment, your task is not to force clarity. It’s to notice what happens in your body when a decision is correct.
Because your inner authority already knows. You’re simply learning its language.
From Mental Control to Embodied Awareness
Most of us were taught that smart decisions come from the mind — research, pro-con lists, other people’s advice. But as you live your design, you see that the mind can’t feel what’s correct for you. It can only narrate, compare, and worry.
A correct decision is not a thought. It’s an energetic alignment.
The body signals it through calmness, expansion, and a sense of rightness that doesn’t need to be justified. You’ll begin to feel a quiet shift inside you — as if something clicks into place.
At first, these signals are easy to miss. They’re subtle because you’re re-tuning your awareness from external noise to internal truth. But once you start noticing them, you’ll realize they were always there.
How Correctness Feels
Across all types and authorities, a few qualities are common:
- Ease instead of tension. You can breathe fully again.
- Spaciousness instead of pressure. The urgency disappears.
- Neutrality instead of emotion. It simply feels right, even if it’s not exciting.
- Flow instead of force. The next step unfolds without effort.
These sensations might last a second — a small internal yes before the mind starts debating. That’s the window where truth speaks.
Your experiment is to catch those moments, to listen to them, and eventually to trust them.
What It Looks Like in Real Life
A correct decision rarely looks dramatic.
You might find yourself typing an email and suddenly feel your body tighten — a quiet “no.” You stop. You don’t send it. Hours later, you realize that hesitation saved you from an unnecessary complication.
Or you’re walking through the grocery store, notice a product, and your whole body leans toward it. You buy it without question, and it becomes exactly what you needed for a project you hadn’t even planned yet.
Correctness happens in these small, natural gestures. It’s not mystical. It’s practical. It’s how life moves through you when you stop interfering.
The Body’s Language by Authority
Every Authority has its own dialect. Learning yours is the core of the experiment.
Emotional Authority – The Calm After the Wave
Your clarity arrives through time. The correct decision feels steady after the emotional wave subsides — not high or low, just clear.
Notice when you stop feeling the need to rush or explain. That’s usually your truth.
Practice pausing before answering. If someone pressures you to decide immediately, remind yourself that clarity can’t be forced.
Sacral Authority – The Energetic Yes or No
Your body answers instantly through response — a pulse of energy, a sound, or a physical pull.
The correct decision feels alive, grounded, and engaging. Incorrect ones feel dull, draining, or heavy.
Begin to observe your natural reactions before your mind interprets them. The body speaks first — the mind rewrites the story.
Splenic Authority – The Whisper of Instinct
Your clarity is instantaneous and quiet. You may not even know why something feels right.
The correct decision feels clean, calm, and obvious in the moment.
If you hesitate or question it, the mind will drown it out.
Practice awareness in small choices: which route to drive, what to eat, who to call. Feel for the gentle “click” of recognition in your body.
Ego (Heart) Authority – The Honest Desire
Correct decisions arise from what you truly want, not what you think you should do.
When the desire comes from alignment, your chest feels open and strong. When it comes from proving or pleasing, the body tightens.
Practice speaking your desire out loud — “I want this.” If it feels empowering and clean, it’s correct.
Self-Projected Authority – Hearing Your Own Truth
You find clarity through your voice. When you speak your thoughts in a safe space, you can hear what’s true.
The correct decision sounds light, confident, and natural in your own words.
If you hear confusion or strain, wait.
Your experiment is to create opportunities to speak aloud your decisions — not for advice, but for resonance.
Mental (Environmental) Authority – Clarity Through Environment
Your correctness comes through interaction and place.
You think best when you’re in the right environment and talking with the right people.
The subtle sign is calm clarity — ideas organize themselves effortlessly.
If you feel pressured or foggy, check where you are and who you’re with before deciding.
Lunar (Reflector) Authority – Clarity Through Time
For Reflectors, correct decisions reveal themselves through cycles.
You notice patterns and consistency over days or weeks.
When something remains true after time passes, that’s your signal.
The body feels open and light in correct environments; contracted or weary in incorrect ones.
Your experiment is to wait and watch — to let time filter clarity for you.
Recognizing the Mind’s Interference
You’ll know you’ve left your authority when:
- You feel urgency or pressure to act.
- You’re trying to make others comfortable.
- You’re searching for guarantees or proof.
- You’re explaining yourself to be understood.
In the experiment, you don’t fight these patterns — you observe them. Each time you notice the mind taking control, you pause and return to the body.
That pause is the bridge between conditioning and awareness.
Building Trust Through Repetition
The subtle signs grow louder as trust deepens. Each time you honor your body’s message — even in small choices — your system learns that it’s safe to follow its own guidance.
Start with minor decisions: what to eat, when to rest, which invitation to accept.
Notice the physical feedback afterward: more energy or less, ease or tension.
Over time, you’ll begin to see a pattern — life feels smoother, timing improves, resistance fades. That’s the result of living from correctness, not control.
When It Feels Quiet
Sometimes, no signal comes. You may feel neutral — not yes, not no. That’s okay. Neutral is often the body’s way of saying, not yet.
Correctness includes waiting.
In those pauses, life is still organizing itself around you.
The experiment is not about constant clarity. It’s about allowing timing to unfold.
Reflection for the Experiment
At the end of the day, pause and ask:
- When did I feel relaxed and certain without needing proof?
- What decisions felt forced or anxious?
- What sensations in my body preceded each?
- What changed when I followed the subtle signs instead of the mental pressure?
Keep notes if it helps you see patterns, but remember — this is not about judgment or perfection. It’s about awareness.
Closing
A correct decision doesn’t shout. It hums.
It feels like flow, simplicity, and relief.
When you live this experiment, you realize that correctness is not about right versus wrong — it’s about resonance.
Every time you honor that subtle “yes,” you align with your own intelligence.
Every time you notice a quiet “no,” you protect your energy.
That’s how you begin to live as yourself — one correct decision at a time.
