◆Name the four Types and the distinguishing feature of each aura
◆State the Strategy associated with each Type in one sentence
◆Match each Type to its signature and its not-self theme

Manifestors — the initiators

Traditional

~9% of the population. Closed and repelling aura. Strategy: to inform before acting so their impact does not blindside those around them. Signature aligned: peace. Not-self theme: anger. In practice, informing is not permission-seeking; it is courtesy that reduces resistance.

Generators & Manifesting Generators — the builders

Traditional

~70% of the population combined. Open and enveloping aura with a defined Sacral center that responds. Strategy: to respond, letting the body's gut sound lead rather than the mind. Signature: satisfaction. Not-self theme: frustration. MGs additionally have a motor connected to the Throat and often skip steps.

Projectors — the guides

Traditional

~20% of the population. Focused and penetrating aura, no motor to the Throat and typically an undefined Sacral. Strategy: to wait for the invitation for the big things. Signature: success. Not-self theme: bitterness.

Reflectors — the mirrors

Traditional

~1% of the population. All nine Centers undefined; a sampling aura that tastes the health of the community. Strategy: wait a full lunar cycle (~28 days) before major decisions. Signature: surprise. Not-self theme: disappointment.

How to Actually Use Type

KAF Original

Do not perform your Type. Notice which signature and which not-self theme were loudest today. Adjust one small mechanic — informing, waiting for a clear gut sound, waiting for recognition, or sleeping on it — and watch the field around you change.

Evidence

Population percentages come from HD community chart samples, not census data.

Historical context

Historical
