THE PROJECTOR.
THE PROJECTOR: THE LIGHT GUIDE & VISIONARY.
The incredible projector makes up about 20% of the population. They can have a large spectrum as they have the most possibility for variance in their chart - which means there's the most variety in what a Projector 'looks like'. Projectors have a deep and penetrating aura which makes them they’re great at directing the flow of energy, perfecting and correcting, seeing what others cant see and seeing deeply to others (and optimising their talents and gifts). They make incredible guides and leaders and can really deeply hold space for others with clarity.
They really show us new ways of doing things, questioning the old narratives and offer fresh perspectives. However on the flip side of this, Projectors can also ABSORB the energy of others - so it's important to stay aware where you end and the other begins and be sure to incorporate energetic practices to clear others energies from your system. Rest, nourishment and play is also vital for the Projector - which is something you can overlook when you get too focused on your Signature of Success. Can you redefine your definition of Success to include play, nourishment and self care?
Projectors work well in short bursts of work - especially when OUTWARDS. You get more done in a short focused time than most people would in a larger stretch, so you don’t actually NEED to work 8 hours a day (and what, if any, energy motors you have available to you will be highly influential in what this looks like for you). You have a million and one gifts, but being a workhorse is not what you're here for. Your capacity for what you're here to SEE and the wisdom you can impart is your true magic. You're like the eagle over the field - you can see what we can't see and direct us to a more beautiful, harmonious future.
STRATEGY: TO WAIT FOR AN INVITATION.
The energetic strategy of the projector is to 'wait for the invitation'. Now, does this mean you sit around and wait for people to invite you to do anything? Absolutely not. What you’re really doing is allowing yourself to be recognised. You don't have to wait to create. You can create, launch and invite people towards you. You can also lovingly invite people in to your world to collaborate, connect and co-create.
When you allow yourself to be seen in your magnificence, your gifts and your genius and allow people to walk to you, the invitations and success is a natural byproduct. I love to share an analogy that I hope supports you understand the energetics of this strategy (because that's all it is, an energetic strategy to support your best FLOW). If you've ever been to a comedy show and you know the comedian is going to ROAST the participants and you end up sitting front row, the last thing you might want is to be called up on stage.
So if you were called on, you would resist that exchange. That's what happens when you slip out of invitation mode - you throw your aura on someone who is not ready, nor will value that exchange (leaving you feeling resentful and under appreciated). BUT, if you position yourself as the SPOTLIGHT shining on the stage, then you're using your superpowers to create a light for people to walk in to willingly. You become the light for them to see themselves.
It's really important while you're visibly 'waiting' that you get clear on the type of invitations you want to call in and prepare for them. Say for example you wanted to get more podcast guest speaker spots to share your magic on gut health, are you actually sharing on your own platforms around these? Do people know that's your zone of genius? Know that you're waiting for the RIGHT invitation, one that recognises you for your brilliance, not ANY invitation.
It can be tempting to dip in to fear and take any old invitation when it comes up out of fear of not getting another one (promotion, collaboration or new client for example that doesn't QUITE align). If it an invitation doesn't make you feel valued or feels off, let it go. Every yes to something that's a no is taking up space for an even better yes. The right invitation will come. Trust. Remember: your perspective is as valuable as liquid gold.
NOT-SELF + SIGNATURE: BITTERNESS + SUCCESS.
Your 'signature' is Success and your Not-Self is Bitterness. If you don't relate to the words - check for what a connecting umbrella word may be. Maybe it's resentment, or fulfilment. When you're in your Not-Self, are you accepting the wrong invitations or are you missing play or nourishment in your drive for success? Are you phishing for invitations or pushing yourself in to the world of another without an invitation? How can you redefine your relationship with success that allows you to experience it more freely?
