Archetypes: The Hidden Power Patterns Shaping Your Life

Have you ever felt an inexplicable pull toward certain roles-perhaps knowing you'd be a caregiver, feeling compelled to create art, or naturally taking charge in groups? These aren't random tendencies but archetypes speaking through you. Caroline Myss's groundbreaking work explores these universal patterns that form the foundation of human behavior and identity. When philosophy skincare founder Cristina Carlino experienced an identity crisis after losing her company, she discovered her authentic archetypes remained while false ones had faded-a revelation that sparked her collaboration with Myss. In our increasingly disconnected world, archetypes offer a profound language of self-understanding that bridges psychology, spirituality, and intuition-a map to navigate what Myss calls our "Inner-net," the psychic network connecting all humans through these universal patterns of power. Understanding your archetypes isn't just fascinating-it's essential to living an authentic life aligned with your deepest nature.
