Where is your genius?
On a larger scale, we find ourselves at a turning point in the history of our planet, and that means we have an opportunity to radically re-think how we wish to structure our societies.
Not everybody is ready to take the lead and help to actively create a new earth, but some of us are, and so it helps to get clear on the role(s) we want to take on in this process – and then to prepare to step into them.
But the directional archetypes don’t only help on this larger scale, they can also support us in everyday situations when we need to decide the direction of our personal lives, or companies, and when we need to envision, invest in, rethink or re-engineer them.
So just have a look at these nine archetypes and think about which role would suit you best? In which of these roles could you fully use and live your genius and let the whole world benefit from it?
When you pull one of these cards, you know that looking at your situation as a — will help you find the solution and will allow you to take the next steps.
The Directional Archetypes
We’ve looked at the Source Archetypes, and how we get to choose between love and fear in every moment, and we became familiar with the Magical Helper Archetypes – so that we know that we are always supported and who we can call on.
And then we explored our relationships to ourselves and our past, our families, our friends and our partners.
The occupational archetypes help us to make wise choices about the ways in which we want to contribute to this world, and the directional archetypes introduce a first set of options here.
Often we start off with a career path that seems acceptable, but that doesn’t actually fulfil our heart’s and soul’s desire. Eventually, unhappiness creeps in, to help us realize that we have the capacity to change and can actually start doing what we came here to do. Something that corresponds with our soul’s wishes for ourselves and our lives, and that is of service to the whole universe.
As humans, we experience limitations, and we might think that we can’t have a certain occupation because of the way we were raised, what we’ve learned, because of our racial, geographical, gender or class background – but it’s time to free ourselves from these limitations and come into soul alignment – and the occupational cards and archetypes are here to help with that.
As a start, you can just look at the pictures and see where your attention goes and where you feel happiness. Can you imagine yourself in any of these roles?
Using Oracle Cards is a great way to explore our subconscious, and to get guidance on where we are and what our best options are in the moment when we draw a card. Drawing cards daily, can also help us to get to know ourselves a lot better and to come into alignment with our soul, and our true selves, as we begin to recognize our subconscious patterns.
Working with these Archetypes in particular, can help us to realize why we may be stuck in certain ways, because of what we believe to be true about ourselves or others, and as a next step, it can help us to direct and design our lives more consciously and gracefully.
Inviting one or more of the Archetype posters into your home can support you while you work on certain aspects of yourself, either by reminding you to strengthen and align with the qualities they represent or by reminding you to embrace and heal them so you can eventually overcome them, and the things that have been limiting you so far.
You have the power to create your world according to your own ideas, needs and wishes – with these descriptions of the different archetypes I share my thoughts about how I think we can live together peacefully, joyfully and lovingly, in the new golden age, or heaven on earth and how each of us can be fulfilled, loved and truly happy. 🧚♀️
All you have to do is find out if this resonates with you and get your poster, or book a discovery call with me, to start stepping into your full power and potential - for more joy, love, success and happiness.
Sage Archetype
We start with the sage because the sage brings in the wisdom we need to base every action on the right choices, on an individual as well as on a collective level.
The sage is the person who’s intuitively knows what right and wrong. They don’t have an ego-driven interest but bring in the wisdom, not the knowledge, of all the generations.
They can see right through you and can detect your errors of judgement and can oversee larger structures and how it is all connected.
Furthermore, they know when to seek out the priest, the healer, or the judge.
For this, they might have gone through a lot.
They might have had to go through difficult times and hardships, through loneliness and difficult situations, initiations, in which they had to face their demons and overcome them.
Because of this, they now know, and can help you understand things better as well.
Priest_ess Archetype
The priest_ess brings in the ceremony. They can bring all people together and guide through a transformational experience.
When the priest_ess invites you to ritual, you know that you will leave as a changed a person because you’ve been touched on all levels and lifted into higher realms.
Of course, a priest_ess can also be there for support, to listen to people when they go through personal difficulties, have moral questions and so on.
But a priest_ess, before anything else, brings people together through shared experiences, through shared belief, through a shared practice and rituals, that connect us with the divine and remind us of our own divinity.
The priest_ess shows us the importance of song and love and prayer and the connection to the all there is, in anything and everything we do.
They help us to thrive, grow and succeed as a community, as one.
Visionary Archetype
The visionary see(s) a problem and offer(s) a solution. They have a dream, an idea, and they can create an image that is so vivid, and so appealing, that others want to help make that vision a reality.
They might themselves be active in the community, but communities can also form and help to make that vision become a reality without the visionary, simply by picking up their ideas and working towards implementing them.
The key skill of the visionary is that they know exactly what is needed, that they see the solutions to problems faced by society at large and know how they can be overcome or what needs to be set up instead to create a better reality for all.
They, as an individual, might not know about all the details or how to make each step necessary actionable, but they can inspire enough other people so that they are willing to figure out the details and begin to dedicate their time to making their vision a reality.
The visionary can feel the energy of the moment and take it to the next best evolutionary stage.
Leader Archetype
To make any worthwhile vision a reality, we need people who can lead larger and smaller groups of people.
The leader gains the trust of others easily because they are calm, focus, believe in themselves, and are not afraid to take on the responsibility of leading people through difficult or unknown terrain.
Of course, ideally, every person takes on a certain amount of responsibility themselves, but things still have to be coordinated and organized, tasks divided and people need to know what their responsibilities are, and they need someone who inspires them to work for a common goal.
A great leader knows when they see somebody at their best, and they can see when somebody is not – and they are able to help them find a role in which they can actually thrive and be of service in the best possible and in a joyful way for all involved.
A great leader knows how to motivate their team, when to send people home to rest, when to thank them and show appreciation for their work, and when to help people grow and be at their best.
And, of course, a great leader works for the highest good of all and not for personal gain.
CEO Archetype
Depending on the size of the project or community, or business, there can be one main leader, like the head of a state, or of a region or of a project, and then different divisions, who work on different aspects of the project.
These need to be led and directed as well. The CEO is the head of a division, they know which subgroups exist, how they work together, and keep an overview of everything that is going on and make sure that one part of the work gets done in the best possible way, without having to have the overall responsibility.
Like the leader, it helps if they can see and bring out the best in people, and they need to be able to organize things, to motivate people, to be reliable and to work efficiently and to delegate as well as to report the results and outcomes, or difficulties and need for changes in all directions.
They might not have to be as charismatic as a leader because they do not need to sell the bigger vision, but it helps if they actually really understand, and enjoy and stand behind the work that they oversee.
Investor Archetype
We need the people with the ideas, the wisdom, and the guidance and leadership skills, and we need those who know how to sustain a project.
On a small scale, we need to invest in ourselves, in order to grow and become the best person we can be, and on a larger scale, it helps when someone can provide the resources that are necessary for the project, this can be money, but people can also invest their labour, or skills, or specific knowledge in return for a certain share of the outcome.
For example, an investor can invest their time and energy in a position in which they can contribute AND learn something, that will allow them to grow as a person. The can also invest their money, to make more money once the project takes off.
Either way, they give and contribute something that they hope to multiply or advance through their investment and that is necessary for and supports the project.
The more we recognize our oneness, the more altruistic this will become and those who can will automatically invest in and support the best ideas, so humanity can thrive collectively.
Judge Archetype
Wherever a large number of people come together, conflicts may arise, and it helps when there is someone who is not involved in the conflict to resolve it.
Right now, we have certain rules and laws that were invented at some point, but many of them do not match our level of consciousness any more or serve our highest good.
Punishment, for example, is something that does not create solutions, just more problems.
So, in the future a judge will have to operate from a point of view that is informed by spiritual laws not human made laws, and can work with forgiveness and support, so that people are not afraid of making mistakes, but know they will be supported to learn from them, so that we can grow peacefully as individuals and as a collective.
A judge will help all sides to understand each other better and make sure that every project and every subgroup works for the highest good of all and they can help people understand that this is also for their personal highest good.
e
Engineer Archetype
The engineer is necessary to create new technology.
In the past, people were able to melt and move stones with vibration, we can use sound, crystals, plants and colours for healing and to help with the growing of renewable resources.
Depending on the cause or project, it can be super useful to have somebody on board who can do the technical thinking and work on a singular, but necessary project, like inventing and engineering a machine or object that can support a specific process.
They may also use their technical knowledge to set up an event, to engineer the acoustics, or a visual transmission and have all of it live-streamed, or the project needs to set up their own printing press or wants to create a podcast and needs a podcasting studio or a production studio, or a website – the engineer will help to get the technical equipment going to support the project – or create the necessary technology to help create or orchestrate new outcomes and let new ideas manifest in reality.
Entrepreneur Archetype
Some people like to work in groups and some like to lead, while others would rather be led, and then some just like to do their own thing.
The entrepreneur likes to stay busy and independent. They might contribute to other projects here and there, but they don’t want to do the same thing the whole time, they like and need change and diversity.
They might run a shop or offer a special product or service.
Every part is a piece of the whole, and the most important thing is that each of us starts working in their zone of genius.
Maybe you are the florist, or you have a crystal shop, or help people with coaching, or you speak at weddings or have a location to host events.
The entrepreneur does their own thing and with that can support individuals as well as companies and projects.
So, who would you like to be?
It’s really awesome that you are here – and surely not a coincidence.
