The Power of NO

Updated: Feb 7, 2022

I spent the morning hanging out with a little 2 year-old 2/4 Splenic Projector, and one of her favorite words is no! She really uses it unabashedly, and it was a joy to behold her in her power.


Children are great to observe because they are largely operating as themselves, pre-conditioning. They are really operating as themselves before the world has gotten a chance to pile layers of conditioning onto them.


“No” was also my favorite word at her age, and many other toddlers can relate.


As we get older, the word “no” is largely conditioned out of us, and we’re led to think using it is selfish.


…And then we avoid saying


“no” to situations, relationships, careers, people, places, and things that aren’t right for us until we reach breaking points. Then we spend time, energy, and money healing from that, reclaiming the word, learning boundaries, and finding out what our authenticity is–all by using the word “no.”


Everyone talks about the power and importance of the word “no.”


…It’s the most magnetic word

…It’s the English language’s shortest complete sentence

…It’s the best, clearest way to set boundaries

…and the list goes on!


Human Design can give you a personalized perspective on why getting used to unabashedly saying “no” is particularly powerful for you, and why you may feel blocked from saying it. The information can help you understand the energetic power that saying the word “no” can have on your life.




For example, for sacral beings (i.e. Generators and Manifesting Generators), saying “no” is key for honoring our gut responses. It’s hard because we tend to be people-pleasers, but understanding that saying “no” to things that are mis-aligned is paramount to our satisfaction. Sacral beings need to remember that our satisfaction generates more life force energy, which ultimately helps the world!


Some food for thought or journaling:

~What does saying “no” feel like for you in your


body?

~What do you find yourself saying “no” to? What are the consequences of saying no?

~Think back to when you have avoided saying no. What was the consequence of that?


…Your answers will hold clues about what expansion and alignment feel like for you, and where you are operating through conditioning.
