Maybe ,people already figured this out and it is obvious However,it just hit me last night. The Jung Archetypes CAN be applied to some of the asteroids. I suppose, they can even be applied to the planets but that is another story lol For example, Juno is the wife archetype.Pallas is the wise woman archetype etc We cannot predict WHAT will happen in the physical world when one is entwined with an archetype just that this energy WILL define one's life in some real way. What do you think?

They probably didn't explain cos there's not really a quick answer. This is the 4th time I've come back to reply and wanted to go without leaving a response.An archetype is like the original essence of a human characteristic. "They" (the archetypes) include all gods and goddesses. Jung did settle down to a few basic personality types but when people go on about an archetype they are usually referring to one of the gods. The definition in the dictionary(I looked it up lol)is the perfect specimen or an original model. I can't tell you them all or how to relate them to your chart.... if you have a particular asteroid or planet and it is strong in your chart then you would have that particular archetype strong in your own personal character somewhere, you'd be able to relate to the story somehow. What you'd need to do is look at your chart and pick out something obvious and then go read up on the myths surrounding that particular god/goddess/ocean nymph or whatever. Hope this made sense.

Yes Quinn explained it perfectly, Sand. ------------------ Enlightenment doesn't result from sitting around visualizing images of light, but from integrating the darker aspects of the self into the conscious personality Jung I am my Beloved's.My Beloved is mine.

I never read Jung. I studied Caroline Myss, a medical intuitive. She talks about the archetypes in one of her books.I didn't really understand it until now with the Asteroids. Clarissa Pinkola Estes is WONDERFUL. She is a storyteller. Her stories make you cry.They are so deep about human nature and so poignant. At the base of these are the Archetypes.You can get CD's of her telling the stories ------------------ Enlightenment doesn't result from sitting around visualizing images of light, but from integrating the darker aspects of the self into the conscious personality Jung I am my Beloved's.My Beloved is mine.
