Genoa on Manifestor Strategy
Manifestors possess the unique ability to act independently, driven by the energy of Non-Sacral Motors connected to their Throat. This intrinsic autonomy allows them to operate without precedent or constraint. They are inherently designed to initiate original projects, thereby catalyzing change and innovation in the world. However, their role is not one of direct involvement in the outcomes of their creations, as might be conventionally expected. Instead, they serve as catalysts for change, sparking new possibilities without necessarily being directly tied to the subsequent developments.
Because Manifestors have the energy from one or more of the non-sacral Motors connected to the Throat, they can act independently through their own volition and without precedent. They are driven by internal motivations rather than external pressures, which inspires the possibility of genuine innovation outside of normal expectations.
Their inherent autonomy plays a pivotal role in the lives of Manifestors. Their remarkable level of independence enables them to undertake actions that are completely unforeseen, marking the emergence of their original potential. However, their freedom is not meant for capricious actions but rather signals their capacity for profound innovation and significant impact. Ra Uru Hu exemplifies such extraordinary originality. With their distinctive autonomy, Manifestors often surprise those around them from an early age, demonstrating an innate independence that can both astonish and concern their caregivers, highlighting the depth of their originality and potential from the outset.
My mother, who was a Manifestor, met an older child at the park who told her that she would teach her to read. My mother asked where she lived. At three years old, my mother walked out of her house, unannounced, to walk three blocks away through the city streets to learn. Discovering she was gone, her family flew into a panic, fearing a kidnapping; the police fanned out through the neighborhoods. This independence starts at birth and never ends. It will happen outwardly or go underground into a secret world where no one will know what their world is like or what their intentions are. Before they are old enough to fully understand, they develop the aura of secrecy, which becomes second nature, to avoid conflict and to live in their own world. To fulfill their mission in the world however, they will need to remold this behavior from the inside, and learn to not only trust others, but to build trust with them.
This is the world where Manifestors live, where their actions are directed and intentional, but their very creativity brings them up against the expectations of others.
This is an example of how Manifestors are known to do the unexpected, but it starts at birth and it never ends. They need to learn everything from the very beginning. They cannot even join into play, without understanding what others take for granted. This can make them feel like an outsider or an alien presence. Their actions are directed; for others, they seem to come out of nowhere.
Manifestors often grow up with an aura of secrecy around them. They operate so independently, that it might not occur to them that others may feel they need to know what they are doing, or what to expect. In short, other people’s expectations can be a surprise to them. A push me, pull me battle can develop between their need for independence and creativity and the restrictions inevitably placed upon their freedom, yet the need to let others know what to expect of them increases with time and the ensuing complexity of life.
Before knowing what is happening, a Manifestor can adapt by hiding their intentions to keep authority figures at bay. Being restrained seems so unnecessary and a waste of time and effort. In addition, other people seem to be able to join into the middle of activities, whereas Manifestors need to know what is going on from the very beginning.
Informing makes it reasonably clear to others what they can expect from Manifestors and what kind of commitments they can make – and those they cannot. In other words, Manifestors will not bond with you in the ways you may expect, but this does not mean they will not bond or be loyal. Our expectations in bonding might be largely unconscious, and unconscious expectations will not work with Manifestors. They need to start at the very beginning of everything and work things out for themselves and with others. This might seem strange for people who are able to join in, in the middle of activities and normal expectations.
Manifestors will do their bonding in their own way, and undoubtably differently than you expect. To be blunt, bonding with a Manifestor is like an adventure, usually full of change and the unexpected.
This creative process, which largely exists “outside the box”, involves vision and creativity, risk-taking, initial periods of deep contemplation and excellent timing when sharing their inventions. They are motivated by their impulse toward visionary creativity, yet bringing visions to fruition usually requires collaboration. The entire process of innovation also requires that Manifestors learn to initiate appropriate informing at each stage of their process and overcome a tendency toward secrecy or hiding their true motivations from others.
The truth is, they cannot do anything else. They start as bystanders who can insert something of great significance into everyone else’s thoughts and actions, and to incept new ideas and behaviors into society. Manifestors must stand apart in significant ways and for significant periods of time to get their bearings. Thus, their first priority is to carve out a space for themselves – a space to contemplate and plan, also to observe and find the underlying causes of human behavior. They may feel that they are all alone, but along the way, they need to be aware of the needs of others and the expectations they have. They need to inform others about their priorities and what others can realistically expect of them.
When they have achieved certain contemplative conditions, Manifestors will pull surprises out of the ethers, as if out of nowhere, like grabbing a bolt of lightning and bringing it down. They need to create these conditions themselves. Their work stems from their own relationship with root causes as they distill their vision into action.
They have an air of mystery about them. Their words and actions can affect others deeply and create all kinds of change as well as expectations. All of this needs to be managed carefully.
When Manifestors initiate to inform, they can establish stable and trusting relationships with others. Getting to the point of informing, however, is a process. Unless they are direct, they can create a wild ride for everyone along the way. If Manifestors are waiting for others to spontaneously understand them, they would need to wait forever; it just won’t happen. They need to take the initiative in everything they do – including to inform.
Ironically, they need to be free enough to do what might appear to others as “nothing” for quite a long time. No one can tell what they will do. Their first task is to explore various insights, their own life-history, states of consciousness, also, to research history, philosophy, or nearly anything – on a deep level. This is a certain phase of their work, which is the foundation of their future. They need this time and space to do it. Each Manifestor will do this exploration in their own way, and they will express it differently. Other people may write science fiction, but Manifestors are designed to live it. As odd as this sounds, they must be free to do it.
If you observe Manifestors as small children, it is clear that they cannot just join in the same way as other children. For a time they can engage, but they will soon stand aside in their own world. It is difficult to explain this kind of free agency and its internal demands — to other kinds of people. As life proceeds, their extreme agency needs to be carefully managed. Yes, it is sweet if parents of Manifestors understand as well, and lay the groundwork, but Manifestors must ultimately take up their own agency, in their own extreme way. They need to initiate literally everything they do, including giving others a clue about what is going on with them. Understanding this is a big wake-up call.
Manifestors have an air of remoteness about them. Because of this natural mystery, other people will make up stuff about them, misinterpret their motives, or perhaps tolerate them until these people reach their wit’s end or lose patience with the Manifestor’s uconventional ways. Do these people truly understand? No!
Without honest informing, there are limits to what can be surmised. What others might think of as normal compliance can elicit strange reactions in a Manifestor. Dealing with other people’s expectations can sap their energy, take up their time, and dull their sense of vision. These dilemmas lead to the wild ride many experience with them, because if the Manifestor complies with unspoken assumptions, they will eventually withdraw. What Manifestors might do to regain their freedom can be truly disturbing.
Eventually, you, the Manifestor, need to let other people know who and what you are, and your true intentions and priorities. It isn’t enough to infom people once, you must do it repeatedly. And it needs to come up in the context of real situations and not so abstractly or theoretically that the other person misunderstands.
In order to create fewer disappointed expectations and strengthen your autonomy., remember, your first priority is to gain space for your truest inspirations and inventions. This priority transforms into your primary commitment to the creations themselves. The significance of what you say and do can be immense when you are not in reaction.
Part and parcel of these considerations is that no one can tell what a Manifestor will do next. First, Manifestors need to get away, then they can return. They need to initiate everything, not just some things. They need to learn everything themselves, even the most fundamental facts about human interactions.
In short, to get to their true work, Manifestors need to learn how to communicate with other Types, and to understand how their auras work and what forces are involved.
Other people rarely want to restrict others intentionally, but what other Types seem to expect in daily matters can seem to do just that, in the view of the Manifestor. This is a simple misunderstanding of how Auric energy works, yet the encompassing aura of the Generator Type can be a trigger. Untold hurt feelings and conflict can stem from this particular glitch in energetic interaction. The Aura of the Manifestor and Generator are just extremely different, and their approaches to life converge from entirely opposite directions, even if they share similar goals. These forces are normally unconscious, but true communication requires that they surface.
Many people have strong ideas that reinforce their preferences that get in the way of understanding others or communicating deeply. As soon as you understand that these differences are all about energy and not intentions, a new level of communication is possible. This is an understatement. This is the work of inter-type communication, which is involved with waking up to diversity. For the Manifestor, informing is the starting point for this all-important transformation.
Learning to communicate with Generators, “the other Energy Type,” is even more essential for Manifestors. As their work matures, they need to mature with it. The first need for the Manifestor is a space of their own. This needs to be their first achievement. The informing and cooperation they have to do to attain it – will be the first in a long series of lessons.
As a child, Manifestors are usually very enthusiastic and active. They naturally explore, sometimes to an extreme degree. Concerned parents are likely to feel compelled to restrict them—but this won’t stop Manifestors. They can go underground and often do, to create a double life. On the one hand, they build their own private world and then there is the world they share with others, usually on a need-to-know basis.
If you are a Manifestor, you may want to investigate the extent that this is true for you. The results of this investigation can be shocking: layers and layers of secret intentions, specialized ways of thinking, plus behaviors and methods of operation that are also secret. The sheer number can be staggering. The work of externalizing at least some of this world is before you.
The thought that operating with such secrecy might be unusual may never have occurred to you. Sadly, many of your best intentions have remained unfulfilled as well as unshared. Young Manifestors often have a persistent fantasy about a cabin in the desert or mountains, where they can be free, breathe easier, and be contemplative and creative.
The strategy of informing is a way to simplify this situation. Informing will bring these two worlds together, your own private world and the world you share with others. This possibility might seem uncomfortable at first, or even preposterous. “What, are you kidding?” The situation and your reaction to informing are all of your own creation.
The process of externalizing who and what you are – needs to be done well, with tact and skill. It is important to start with what is personal and obvious and later move on to how to communicate your deepest intentions and the work that you conduct for the benefit of others. The methodology of self-revelation is simple enough: sincere and honest conversation. Be direct.
Your initial reaction to a policy of disclosure is telling. It gives you hints about your inner landscape. The way you bring these worlds together, and how quickly, is entirely up to you. It is important to move away from an all-or-nothing approach. In addition, there is no blame in any of this. In fact, some caution is wise, realizing that your needs will progress in stages.
On a personal level, when you take simple consideration for others as your guide, it will be obvious what others need to know, so you are not misleading them.
Other people have their fantasies, too. Yours may be to get away; their need is likely wanting to know how you fit into their world. It is simple consideration not to allow other people’s expectations to run on without any idea where you stand. The default answer is to assume you cannot fit in at all, but there does need to be information and conditions in most people’s lives.
Most people are somewhat predictable; you are not. Very few assumptions prove true. Is there some reason others should not know that? Whatever conditions you set in your agreements with others, they need to be updated regularly, and only be subject to free and open discussion.
Manifestors are not in the world to manifest just anything. They exist for a very specific purpose that they need to discover by hard work and contemplation. For you, ideas and inspirations fit together. Your Authority will recognize your specialized work when it appears in your inner world. There will be a call.
For someone who cherishes being free, this is a big deal, because, as soon as you know what you must do, you must do it. It will require work and a whole other level of informing. What has arrived in your psyche through observation, research, and contemplation, and been given birth to, is like a child. It will, like any child, require dedicated hours of attention and care. Unlike a child, its existence is entirely dependent on your innovation. You will need to craft and mold your work, prepare it, organize it, and plan for its wider dissemination. It is something precious and significant. You know it; so will other people, if you are successful in each stage of the process of care, organization, and informing.
You need to be patient and deliberate. One of the first signs of this calling is that you know something that no one else does. It cannot be compared to anything else and you know it will benefit others, if not save the world – as it saves humanity from itself. It is the next step, something that has never existed before.
In discussing this subject, we also need to be realistic. The path of informing and “initiating that informing” is the path through which this state of knowing and invention will come about. Because many, if not most, Manifestors get caught in alienation, not enough of them reach their full destiny. This is a tragedy not just for the Manifestor, but for us all. Their work is dedicated to all those that they love, and iit will reach out to everyone they know and beyond. It is destined to bring more education into the world, more freedom and openness, to transform toxic materialism, plus help us all through crisis and transition. To summarize, the work goes in stages: space to discover, with patience and organization, and then reaching out to the world for energy and cooperation for their unique vision and innovation.
Ironically, the Manifestor, as this quintessential “independent person,” needs to reach out through careful informing at each stage of their process, particularly the last phase. As we have reviewed, it needs simple informing at the beginning to find a place where deep introspection can begin, and a private world can exist for all the right reasons, to incubate and organize their vision.
Doubly ironically, the Manifestor needs solid relationships with Generators for their work to grow and develop – through hard and repetitive work, to take on its own life in the world without themselves needing to run it. In short, they need to build massive trust in order to pass their work along to others. They cannot do all this work themselves. If they try, it will kill them. They will end up being a fruitless slave of their own inventions.
Generators have all of the characteristics necessary to make the Manifestor’s work part of life itself. If this work helps Generators get closer to their own priorities, they will bond with it and carry it forward with their own rhythm. Projectors can organize and manage work flow, and Reflectors will naturally connect this work to everyone’s self-realization and the evolution of a new social organism. In short, the Manifestor can begin this work, but they cannot finish it.
If they have spent their lives informing, there will be plenty of trust surrounding them to begin the process of handing off the work to those who will respect and cherish it. If they have not been informing, they will need to regain trust, or begin the informing over again. Most importantly they need to realize the magnitude of what they have in hand. In light of their work, they need to attract those who will focus on the magnificence of what they have created.
This is how something very small can become huge beyond measure. At its core, the whole process is dependent on initiation, yet the most important initiation, in the beginning and at the end, is to initiate informing.
As the work develops, the stakes rise exponentially, because what is innovative becomes more precious as it comes to term. The significance of your discoveries requires that you, as a Manifestor, evolve to meet the work, purging all notions of self-importance and secrecy. As your innovations help others to evolve, you need to stay in front of the curve and evolve with them.
Like the person who passes the baton in a relay race, the Manifestor finishes their lap exhausted. Then there is “that moment,” when they and the person to whom they will pass the baton run along together. They coordinate their velocity, so that they both seem motionless in space, as the world rushes by. With this coordination, based on informing, they calmly pass the baton without error.
Generators need something to respond to. When Manifestors bring their work far enough along that the Generators can feel it, even touch it, then they can respond. Your informing needs to illustrate it and make it real and practical in order to hand it off. Your presentation needs to bear the mark of consideration and love, for this is in fact your true motive. This is the moment of Peace that the Manifestor can experience by creating trust in what is new, by illustrating, building models, or however you inform, for others to take the baton in that “motionless moment…”
Here we arrive at the essence of the Manifestor’s life; it is to create trust. Something large or small needs to be birthed into the world, and the Manifestor is only the midwife. What all Generators know is that life is sacred and requires love and nurturance above all – especially during transition, which each Manifestor inevitably precipitates. It must happen at the right time, because timing is everything.
