About the quiz

How Authority is set in a real chart

What the quiz can and can't do

The seven questions ask how decisions feel to you: fast or slow, in the body or out loud, once or in waves. Each answer adds points to one or more of the seven Authorities, and the closest match is your result.

That's a useful prompt and not much more. Most people have spent years deciding with their head, so their answers describe their habits as much as their design. Your real Authority isn't something you pick. It follows from which centers are defined in your chart.

The order that decides your Authority

A chart checks the centers in a fixed order, and the first rule that applies is your Authority:

  1. Emotional: the Solar Plexus is defined. It outranks every other center.
  2. Sacral: the Sacral is defined and the Solar Plexus isn't. Only Generators and Manifesting Generators can have it.
  3. Splenic: the Spleen is defined, and neither the Solar Plexus nor the Sacral is.
  4. Ego: none of the centers above are defined, and the Heart connects to the Throat (Manifestors) or to the G center (Projectors).
  5. Self-Projected: none of the centers above are defined, and the G center connects to the Throat. Projectors only.
  6. Mental, also called Environmental: the only defined centers are among the Head, Ajna and Throat. Projectors only.
  7. Lunar: no centers are defined. Reflectors only.

Checking yours

You don't have to work through that list by hand. The free Human Design chart calculator finds your defined centers from your birth date, time and place and names your Authority. If your quiz result and your chart disagree, go with the chart. Then read the guide to all seven Authorities to see how yours plays out in everyday choices.

Before you ask

Questions about the Authority quiz

What are the 7 Human Design authorities?

Emotional, Sacral, Splenic, Ego (Heart), Self-Projected, Mental/Environmental and Lunar. Your Authority is the inner signal you're built to trust when you make decisions.

How do I know my Human Design authority?

Your real Authority is set by which centers are defined in your chart, checked in a fixed order. This quiz estimates it from how decisions feel for you; the free birth chart calculator works it out from your birth date, time and place.

What's the difference between strategy and authority?

Strategy is how you're meant to engage with life (respond, wait for the invitation, inform, and so on). Authority is how you make the final call once something is in front of you. You need both.

Can a quiz really tell me how to make decisions?

It can point you in a direction from self-report. It can't calculate your chart. Use the result as a starting point, then confirm your real Authority from your birth details.
