Archetype Cards: An 80-card Deck with instruction booklet

Product Information

Almost every cultural and religious tradition on earth features angels of some description, including belief in a personal Guardian Angel in the Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions.

On the global level, the shadow manifests as avenging perceived immoral behavior by resorting to violence, from acts of ecoterroism to bombing abortion clinics. For the Alchemist or Wizard to be one of your circle of twelve, it needs to be associated with your physical life in some significant way.This may well be explained by the social attitude that associates weakness and loss of control with a man who expresses emotions. She has also just published her first book through her company, CMED, entitled, THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF GEORGE WASHINGTON, an extraordinary piece of literature that was channeled sixty years ago by a nearly-blind woman named Edith Ellis. Discovering the empowerment that comes with perseverance has a life-long impact, becoming a reference point for what you are able to accomplish.

You may find that you relate equally to the Orphan and the Wounded Child, or to the Puer Eternis and the Nature Child. The 80 cards in this pack clearly and simply show us the Positive and Negative aspects of the archetypes, help us to understand which archetypes we currently identify with and shows how to connect with our unconscious archetypes so that we can gain more control over our behaviour.

Legal manipulation, misuse of legal authority, and threatening others through an association with the law are other expressions of the shadow. Films: Matt Dillon in My Bodyguard; Jack Palance in Shane; Mel Gibson in Braveheart; James Cagney in The Fighting 69th; Bert Lahr in The Wizard of Oz. The Black Knight donning dark armor and riding a black horse represents the shadow characteristics of this archetype, especially the absence of honor and chivalry. Although you have a lot of cards here (72 + 6 blank if you feel you need to make a different one) I found it easier to work through each card reading the positive and negative aspects of the characters to see if they resonated with me rather than reading through the section of the book that covered this process. Religion/Myth: Asklepios (Greek hero who later become a plague god, then the god of medicine and healing); Aesculapius (Roman god of healing based on the Greek Asklepios); Garuda (great golden bird with an eagle’s beak and wings and human body, the Indian symbol of medicine); Meditrina (“Healer,” a Roman goddess of wine and health who was later syncretized into the cult of Aesculapius); Eeyeekalduk (Inuit god of healing); the Medicine Buddhas (most prominently, Bhaishajyaguru in Tibet and Yakushi-Nyorai in Japan, who symbolize the healing and transformative quality of buddhahood).
