Connecting to your archetypes is a bridge to who you truly are. You may be influenced by numerous archetypes to a greater or lesser degree. However you have a dominant group that shape your life the most. The more you know about these dominant archetypes the more you will understand their influence on your thoughts, attitude, behavior, personal symbols and actions.
You can pretend to be something that you are not, but you will not have the energy to continue. Pretending will wear you out because it is not authentically you. Archetypes shape our lives from birth. Knowing your dominant archetypes will set you on a path to begin asking yourself if you are living the live you are destined to live, the life of your true self.
As we age we tend to know what is true about us, what has always been true. We can deny our patterns, but eventually the archetypal patterns win out. And with that awareness, we reclaim our power.
