For Day 16, I'll share a bit about the dynamic between a defined will center and an undefined will center.
(Also sometimes called the Ego, the Heart or the Resource Center)
Only about 1/8th of the population has a defined will center, so the majority of the relationships you have probably won't involve one.
What is interesting about this to me is that our society is all about sending the message that we should just be able to power through things.
Even for those with a defined will center, the message is more about "Do you have the resources?" If yes, it can be a pretty easy decision to just do that thing the heart desires. If not, the answer is just no.
Depending on conditioning, most people with a defined will center don’t think about questioning their own value. There seems to be an inherent nature of the defined will to see the value in things.
For an open will center though, the opposite can be true. It can be a real struggle for someone with an open will center to truly feel and embody the value that they have.
There can be an aspect of working hard to prove their worth/value.
"I will be of value if I do enough, if I give enough, if I earn enough money, if I get the degrees", etc. For an open will center it can be so lovely to be in the presence of that defined energy. It can simply just feel easier to understand that our existence is of value and there is no need to do anything to prove that.
And the downside can be that the will power from the consistent defined center can feel amplified and for someone who doesn't have a defined sacral, could be an extra source of pushing too hard that can lead to burn out. Alternatively it may be experienced that in the presence of the defined will center, someone with an undefined will center may actually have a better understanding of not pushing too hard with willpower (this has been my experience with an open will center and being in partnership with a defined will center)
Since 7/8 of the population do not have a defined will center, the majority of people can struggle with this theme and in fact is the relationship theme for a lot of people when the will center is left open in the composite/connection chart.
Question for the Undefined Will: Am I trying to prove something (in particular value or worth)?
If you're in relationship (partner, parent/child, coworker) do you know if you or your partner have a defined will center? If so, what is your perspective/experience?
Don't know? You can run a free individual chart here or a free composite chart here.
