. 𖦹.°.‧ ꩜‧.°.𖦹 .°.‧

archetypes have been around since humans started communicating. they represent innately human qualities and universal, impersonal patterns of influence that inspire us and live within us.

archetypes can be thought of as character types.

swiss psychologist carl jung believed archetypes provide the foundation for our personality, our drives, our feelings, our beliefs, our motivations, and our actions.

i believe we’re each made up of a combination of multiple different archetypes.

knowing which archetypes you feel called to embody can help you to accept and understand:

  • yourself

  • your path

  • your desires

  • what will make you feel most fulfilled in this lifetime

the tarot can help to identify your archetypes ꩜ ‧°.

what is
the tarot?

the tarot is a tool for achieving self-knowledge.
the tarot is a tool of encouragement.

the tarot of today is philosophical and psychological information system and a passed-down-through-human-history storytelling device that provides guidance on how to navigate the human experience with awareness and grace.

it utilizes the universal language of symbolism and its themes speak to the totality of human existence—everything we experience as humans on earth, including the hereditary and societal belief structures of western culture.

the major arcana archetypes—the primary focus of an archetypal tarot reading—tell the story of the human experience, from being taught how to be in society, to searching inward to find out who one really is, to the journey towards self-actualization and unity with the forces of life itself.

a reading with me will cover

your tarot archetypes:

  • this archetype is said to describe your soul’s purpose, not just in this lifetime but through all your lifetimes. learning about this archetype will give insight into the qualities in yourself that you must express and use in order to feel fulfilled in whatever you do, as well as characteristics you possess that are especially helpful to you on your soul’s journey through life.

  • this archetype is said to explain what you came into this lifetime to learn. it describes the characteristics of your personality that you develop easily and the lessons you learn early in your life because they resonate with your essential nature.

    often times the personality card/archetype is the same as the soul card/archetype, but at times they differ.

  • this archetype speaks to aspects of yourself that you don’t see, reject, or fear. it’s referred to as the hidden factor or shadow card, as the term was defined by psychologist Carl Jung.

    Jung used the term to refer to the unknown or little-known parts of the personality, aspects of ourselves that we deny and thus can't see directly.

    it’s also referred to as the “teacher” card, because our shadow is often our greatest teacher, and because those of us over 30 are likely to already have confronted our shadow are ready to approach the archetype as a teacher.

  • exploring this archetype can help to shed light on what inspires your actions in life and drives your inner desires and urges. it is also said to speak to your inner strength.

    it is calculated using the letters in your full name.

  • the destiny card is said to show why you were born, what you were named to do, and the kinds of experiences necessary to accomplish that task. it’s also calculated using your full name.

some notes on tarot’s origins 𖦹 .°.‧

the first known deck of tarot cards was created during the 15th century in Italy, during the renaissance.

it wasn’t until centuries later that occult scholars recognized the connection of the symbols on the cards to Egyptian mysteries, Hermetic philosophy, the Kabbalah, alchemy, and other mystical systems from times preceding when the first known deck appeared.

fun fact: some believe that the mystics of Egypt hid the secrets for spiritual evolution in a deck of cards because they believed in more in the human desire to play and gamble than to study sacred texts. they knew that a deck of cards that could be played as a game would survive… and it did.
