Some charts reference Inner Authority as “none” for Mental Projectors and Reflectors.
These Designs do have an Authority for making decisions… a personal descision making tool, it’s just not Center based (not about definition of a particular center)

And Cheryl Sprintall, dives into her experience of soundboarding as a Mental Projector in this essay -
“NOTE: I wrote this ages ago - and I've copy pasted it here from another group.
This is a long post...
My attempt to share what happens as sound boarding is used to make decisions as an Mental Projector.
Read on if you're interested.
I'm a Mental Projector, 2/4, RAX of the Maia. (16 months into my experiment, and taking it pretty seriously).
Mental projectors have no inner authority. Which means they have no direct body hit, OR sensation, OR process happening DIRECTLY inside them 'in the moment' which will lead them to clarity.
(((Spleen has a hit
Sacral has the rising motion of yes and sinking of no.
Emotional peeps have a wave
Spp have the sound vibration and resonance of their voice
Epp feel a pulse.. ((((basic overviews as I understand))))
MP's don't have an internal process which is why it's called NO inner authority. - there is no system inside me to wait for, Or be aware of, no process, wave or sound... nothing.
Everything I need, to make a decision is outside of me.
And I have to call it in piece by peice in order to feel the vibration of my truth within me.
To do this I sound board, it's environmental. I send out (talk) in order to feel what comes back inside my body.
I need to be able to articulate in a raw, free, authentic, expressive way, and find someone, (often a number of people), to hear me repeat and repeat and talk and talk.
I look at them, I feel what's alive in me, I see their facial expression, I notice their body language, the tone of their voice, the questions they ask to probe me further.
How do I feel in my body about what they say to me?...
I'm calling it in.... I ask myself...
Am I clear and concise about what I'm saying? (To me) and is how I'm expressing myself understood by the other?.... (not because it matters to me that they 'get me' but because it matters to the way my body feels.)
If they don't get me it's a sign I need to go deeper and explain further... at this point I don't get me either because I can't explain myself clearly. So I keep talking.
And if it's a big decision I can pace up and down.
I'm restless and desperate even.
Because everything I need to be clear is not inside me it's in the environment and I'm reaching for it and pulling it in - it's naturally happening like this. There's no other way.
It's not searching for mind answers, although energetically it feels like searching.
I can talk to myself but it's not from my own voice I get clarity- nothing like SPP - they can talk to themselves and find the truth and be clear. MP's can't. It's much more complex than that.
Clarity can come suddenly after getting angry and frustrated with the decision you’re trying to make.
Or it can sit as sweet as life itself inside you like a drop of water settling the body and relaxing it.
When I'm searching for clarity and sound boarding I am really not able to think or do anything else - it can be a deeply overpowering all consuming and exhausting experience to bring order back into my life, body and mind.
To experience this degree of distress would be only for big or important decisions. Smaller ones to a lesser degree.
The vibration of clarity sits in the body - I don't know a better way to describe it.
For simpler decisions no one notices I'm sound boarding- I'm just talking... when my decisions big they know - I go round in circles...
When I'm all sound boarded out and the decision has arrived I've no desire to talk about it any more (even tho friends might ask - what did you decide) but, the power drops away from my voice.
I can even bore myself by saying things out loud to someone that I've already processed and become clear on.
I hope this helps deepen the understanding of the MP's process for those of you who are trying to grasp this concept.
(It helped me to actually write it- although know it's not perfectly written)
I really, really hope it helps the newer MP's in their experiment....”
