The Inspirational Archetypes
We need people who can lead us in certain situations, as seen in the directional archetypes, and we need those who can bring us back to ourselves and help us connect to our spiritual side or heal our pain, as seen in the spiritual archetypes, but we also need those who inspire us through our senses, whether that is through sound, taste, vision, vibration or energy.
The inspirational archetypes are here to create and facilitate room for expansion, to reimagine ourselves, to inspire us, to touch us on a soul level and to remind us to enjoy and experience all the beauty that is always available – if only we dare to pause and look and take it all in.
When you pull one of these cards, you are invited to awaken our inner healer, or poet, or chef and to inspire yourself and others and to connect to others through their senses.
Artist Archetype
While the term artist can be used to describe all of the inspirational archetypes, the artist archetype stands for the visual artists – painters, sculptors, filmmakers – those who translate ideas into pictures or physical objects.
As an artist and designer, I spent a lot of time thinking about the difference, and would describe the artist as the one who, through inspiration, finds a unique expression of a feeling or idea and translates this in their very own unique style, thus creating something extremely rare and singular in its existence.
Designer Archetype
The designer, on the other hand, translates an idea into a visible concept that can exist in variations and that can be reproduced easily.
The designer helps to create and form a brand, and selects and puts together the imagery around a project that underlines the idea, and it’s purpose visually.
Chef Archetype
What’s a good project without good food?
A chef can either help to feed the people working within the community or help to share the message with the outside world through food or by inventing new ways of preparing food and sharing that.
Athlete Archetype
What about a yoga session or workout for the team? Or organizing a charity run or other sports events for your project?
How can you combine physical activity with your cause?
An athlete could also be a professional who advocates for your cause or someone who helps to develop new ways of moving that are beneficial to others.
Entertainer Archetype
The entertainer is the one who can make people laugh and feel, not with written words or music, but through talking, acting, showing and entertaining.
It’s the one who loves speaking at the rally or demonstrations, and who is wonderful at moderating events.
The entertainer loves the spotlight and shines brightest when it’s on them.
Storyteller Archetype
A storyteller can help to document the project and write its story, or they can help to support any project by creating stories to draw people’s attention towards the project or to explain ideas, background information and to help people shift their perspectives by engaging them with stories they can relate to.
Poet Archetype
A poet has a way to condense complicated emotions and experiences into words that speak beyond the actual words through their combination, tone, juxtaposition.
Good poetry allows us to understand the complexity of life directly, it allows us to feel seen and understood and to connect with each other through the artful use of words.
A poet can help to communicate a message or vision in words that can be felt.
Musician Archetype
How wonderful would it be to hear your message in a song? How many lovely memories do you have about sitting around the fire together, and singing together?
A musician can help bring the team together through music or attract more people to the project or communicate the ideas through songs.
Healer Archetype
The most accurate description of a healer, I heard so far, is that a healer is the one who can hold the image of a person as healed.
No matter which method of healing is used, to see the person as whole and healed is key for the work of a healer – and to have one on a team will surely be beneficial to all.
Herbalist Archetype
A herbalist can help to heal and strengthen the team or those who are the target group of the project.
Herbs as medicine are highly beneficial, and I had a friend who was a herbalist, who, together with others, opened a clinic to help low-income families and those without health insurance in the US.
It’s really awesome that you are here – and surely not a coincidence.
If you like to dive deeper into getting to know your true self, consider ordering your unique Wheel of Colours, so you can remember the colours of your life and start integrating them, to gain more personal freedom, happiness and, if you like, even enlightenment.
Or join the CREATRIX School to continue working with these archetypes.
We work with the inspirational archetypes in the Community Chapter.
Learn how we can begin to build stronger communities & start creating the world we want to live in
In this chapter of the CREATRIX School (or 4-week course) we learn how we can build strong communities, what our unique roles can be in these strong communities, what our gifts are that we came to share with others and how we can best combine our powers and energies to create the changes we want to see in our world (and not get triggered or distracted by personal issues).
Basically, this course can show you all you need to know to lead groups, clubs, communities, organisations or teams successfully, and wisely, for the highest good of all.
