Archetypes serve as a framework for understanding human behaviour and personality traits. They are universal characteristics that are typically present in every person within any given archetype.
Archetypes help us understand ourselves and others better, they do this because we can see how an archetype would behave at their most evolved state, and in their shadow, which is their least evolved
There are several archetypes that are associated with women, and they shape our character in many ways.
One of the most well-known archetypes is the Inner Child, and this is an archetype that is still present in all of us and contributes to our adult archetype.
A queen is a natural leader who exudes power and authority. She is confident, assertive, and decisive, she is also elegant, graceful, and dignified. The Queen is often seen as the pinnacle, but it’s important to highlight here that the pinnacle for any woman should be the most evolved version of their own, natural archetype. Women who embody The Queen are often in positions of authority, such as CEOs, business owners or political leaders. They are also influential in their personal lives, serving as role models for their friends and family, and often surround themselves with a strong network.
Another archetype commonly associated with women is The Nurturer. Women who embody this archetype are naturally caring and empathetic. They have a deep sense of compassion and a desire to help others. They are often found in caring professions such as nursing or teaching, people gravitate towards a nurturer when in need.
Other archetypes associated with women include The Warrior, The Sorcerer, and The Lover. Each of these archetypes has unique attributes that shape our character. For example, women who embody The Warrior archetypes are strong, courageous, and determined. They have a fierce sense of independence and a desire to protect. Women who embody "The Sorcerer" archetype, on the other hand, are intuitive, spiritual, and creative. They have a deep connection to the universe and align with the frequency of our earth.
The Lover is one of my firm favourites. This archetype represents the passionate and emotional side of human nature, and is often associated with love, romance, and sensuality. The lover archetype can be expressed in many ways, from the intense and passionate to the gentle and nurturing.
When it comes to professions, The Lover archetype is often found in creative fields such as music, art, and writing. This is because these professions allow for a great deal of emotional expression and creativity, which are two key aspects of the lover archetype. The Lover also makes a great business owner, as their businesses are usually born from their passions. Additionally, the lover archetype can also be found in professions that involve counselling or therapy, as these fields often require a deep understanding of human emotions and relationships.
Archetypes serve as a powerful tool for understanding human behaviour and personality traits. As women we can draw from various archetypes to understand and shape our character, and to enhance our personal growth. Understanding these archetypes and how they show up in us can help us to identify our strengths and weaknesses and make positive changes in our lives, personally and professionally. Whether you are a queen, a nurturer, or a warrior, embracing the attributes of an archetype can help you become the best version of yourself.
