AARQ - a question from a Projector about (1) Manifestor 👀
“Why do Manifestors come across as narcissistic?”
There were many replies in addition to the mine which I’m pasting below.
The punchline is … the Manifestor strategy of informing would possibly go a long way in this case and generalizing like this is stupid.
But, as often happens, an unexpected reply was pulled out of me and so I share it here - also a screenshot of a couple comments that came after which made me notice this could be worth sharing in here (maybe interestingly, the commenter on the second comment has a defined ego - though I forget what channel defines it)
Here’s what I wrote:
“You can inform too. Do you?
We’re built to ask questions, but I think this is a compromise we get to make in our communication style with Manis.
Honestly, I think most communication with other people - and particularly long term relationships - can benefit from informing more than many people recognize.
Also, there’s lots of things naturally occurring in different designs that could account for what you’re perceiving/experiencing.
Ones I’ve witnessed:
- Single definition
- Defined ego (particularly with 25/51 in my experience)
- 1/3 Profile
- Any 5th line profile
- Personal view (or Power view for that matter tbh)
- There are Gates (with specific lines) that lean this “self centered” seeming - correctly
- Any Individual Circuitry
- Gate 10 (yours or his)
- Channel 58/18
That’s off the top of my head.
My husband is a sacral Generator and has some of this Gate and Circuitry definition that could easily trend looking Narcissistic- but when I’m operating correctly, these things in him don’t phase me. And I can also witness Notself without feeling like I have to get entangled in it too.
This is why understanding how our own Design meets the world is so important.
You’re not going to guide him. But you too can learn to inform.
The Mani piece is just one part of a much larger equation. One that includes both of your mechanics.”
