The Law of Potentiality

Jewel of the day · Citrine. C is who she is. E is how she works. O is what she holds and increases.

Spoken on this day

Day 12 and Day 13 add to Day 14. Personality — the recipe, the outflow — added to Pursuit — the study that becomes operations — equals Potentiality.

Potential and potentiality are not the same thing. Potential is what you could be: a sealed capacity, sitting still. Potentiality is the increase of potential — capacity that is being enlarged while it is being used. Potential is a promise. Potentiality is a compounding.

She begins capable. She exercises that capability, because what she has to work with is an opportunity — one door, one open thing. Capability that is never exercised goes quietly back to sleep.

The Architect goes from capable to competent, and she gets there by equipping: tools, armor, intelligence, intellect, lands, kingdoms. And what she becomes is an opportunist — no longer waiting at the door, she is the one who recognizes and takes it.

The Sovereign becomes capacious — not merely able, not merely qualified, but roomy: built to hold more than is currently in her. She stops only equipping and begins to enlarge — her connection, her capacity, her house. And what she holds are opportunities, plural, which she now makes for herself and for other women. This is the turn of the whole law: she becomes capacious, therefore more capable; she increases in competency by always equipping again.

This is also her birthday law. A woman born on the fourteenth carries Potentiality as her particular law — the increase of her own increase.

Where this law was proved · Akron, Ohio · 1851

Sojourner Truth speaks unprepared and turns the room

The lesson from the past

Authority is not granted by the platform. It is recognised when someone speaks from the ground of their own lived truth.

The future it opens

Say the true sentence plainly. It carries further than the clever one.

The burden Christian sets down today

Waiting to be invited to your own authority.
