With Somatic Readiness Check, the first evidence is often somatic: a held breath, a clenched jaw, a gut refusal, or a sudden clarity that no longer asks permission. The Tower Time source passage used here begins with “What you will need: Use your pendulum, body,” so this page keeps its interpretation tied to the book rather than to a recycled category formula.
## Before beginning For Somatic Readiness Check, the embodied reading begins by treating sensation as evidence rather than inconvenience, and this somatic readiness check treatment keeps that evidence tied to a distinct source passage. The passage's wording around “tool of direct yes/no communication. If you’ve never dowsed” gives this techniques page a concrete pressure point: the practitioner should name the signal before turning it into a story. In practice, this means the body often reports the Castle's bargain first through fatigue, constriction, agitation, or a sudden refusal to keep performing. In a Tower moment, Somatic Readiness Check therefore becomes useful only when the insight changes breath, posture, boundary, pacing, or the next conversation.
