The two Source Archetypes represent the two answers to every question we have, and every decision we make, in every single moment.

They represent the answer, to the most important question of our lives, which underlies each question and decision, no matter which form they come in.

This question is part of every decision, every move, every turn, every word, though we are seldom aware it.

Unless – we slow down enough to bring it to our consciousness. The two Source Cards are your invitation to bring this to your awareness.

The question is: “Is my next move for the greater good (Energy Archetype) or not (Destroyer Archetype)?”

If we were to ask ourselves this question more often it would not only bring much more clarity to any situation, and make our decisions so much easier, it would also drastically improve our lives, if we asked and answered this question regularly.

Just try it!

In any situation, with any choice we have to make, we can ask ourselves: Is this beneficial to all? Is this leading to enjoyment, peace, expansion?

Or is this a situation where I’m trying to overrule my gut feeling, and choose what, I think, is expected of me, what I’m supposed to do, even though deep down I know that it is limiting, leading to or continuing collapse, stress, fear, sorrow?

It’s the question of which wolf to feed.

We have to answer it with every move we make, wherever we turn, so we might as well be conscious of it and make the best choice for ourselves and for all more often.

I’ve created four categories of Relational Archetypes.

The first one of the Relational Archetypes is the Inner Child, which comes right after the Source Archetypes.

The Source Archetypes represent the fundamental choice between good and evil, empowerment and disempowerment, right and wrong, giving life, supporting the flow of life and the destruction of life and stopping of the flow. With that, they represent the existence or absence of everything that is alive.

The Inner Child, which the Wounded Child Archetype belongs to, represents our internal parts and is therefore part of the very first relation we form, and which we keep all our lives, the relationship to ourselves.

Each of these Inner Child parts can be found in each of us. Depending on how we were raised and the experiences we had growing up, some of these might be stronger or weaker than others as a default.

But nothing is set in stone, when it comes to our lives.

The more aware we become of our internal parts, the more we can balance them and choose the parts we need in each moment. The more we raise our consciousness, the more we will be able to see that we can decide which part of ourselves takes over in any given moment and with that empower ourselves, instead of letting old (unhelpful) patterns unfold and instead align ourselves with our intentions.

The other Relational Archetypes are Family, Friendships and Romance, which represent the different personal roles we might inhabit in relation to one or more people.

I’ve created four categories of Relational Archetypes.

The second category of the Relational Archetypes is Romance, or Romantic Archetypes, which follow the Inner Child Archetypes.

The Inner Child Archetypes, which follow the Source Archetypes, represent the different parts of ourselves, which we need to be a human being that can grow and expand and be aware and connected. They also represent the primary connections that we form – the connection to ourselves.

The Romantic Archetypes represent the loving and romantic role we play when we seek to connect to another person or more people in adolescence and beyond.

Often, if left unconscious, we find that we repeat the same attachment styles in these relationships, that we know from the relationships we had with our primary caregivers.

There are nine different Romantic Archetypes, and we each have the capacity to play any of these roles.

The more conscious we become, the more we can choose which role we want to play and may start creating what a healthy, loving and reliable relationship looks like for us, instead of repeating unhealthy, yet familiar, patterns.

Nothing is set in stone, when it comes to our lives.

It is up to us to decide what we want our lives to look like and how we want our relationships to unfold, as we are the only ones living our lives and the only ones able to create the changes we seek.

If we don’t know how to be considerate in a relationship with other people and how to respect and support the other person as they are, it is our responsibility to seek the help we need to find out how to do so.

While the Inner Child Archetypes represent the different aspects of ourselves, which we need to manifest our humanness, the Romantic Archetypes represent the aspects of ourselves, which we use to build our most intimate connections with other human beings, our primary partner(s).

The other two Relational Archetypes are Family and Friendships, which represent the roles we might inhabit in relation to one or more people who we are not ourselves and that we are not in a romantic relationship with.
