If Plantagenet had his way the Jungian's Archetype of society would be reduced to "The Lover".

The Lover-

Type: Soul

Motto: “You’re the only one.”

Core desire: intimacy and experience;

Goal: being in a relationship with the people, work and surroundings they love;

Greatest fear: being alone, a wallflower, unwanted, unloved;

Strategy: to become more and more physically and emotionally attractive;

Weakness: outward-directed desire to please others at risk of losing own identity;

Talent: passion, gratitude, appreciation, and commitment;

Canem Malum,

You really need to give it a rest.

Seek professional help.

Because -

You're one sick, sick, bad dog.

You need to get your vomit under control old chap.

Here's a few more Jungian Archetype's see if you can match them to the OLO contributer... ;)

Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses- Jung tried to make people aware of their character(s)...

Most people have two to three main characters on Jung's Archetypal Wheel.

Sometimes it's helpful to attempt to view the world through a different lense.

Group 3: Yearn For Paradise
7. The Innocent

Type: Ego

Motto: “Free to be you and me.”

Core desire: to get to paradise;

Goal: to be happy;

Greatest fear: to be punished for doing something bad or wrong;

Strategy: to do things right;

Weakness: boring for all their naive innocence;

Talent: faith and optimism;

8. The Sage

Type: Self

Motto: “The truth will set you free.”

Core desire: to find the truth;

Goal: to use intelligence and analysis to understand the world;

Biggest fear: being duped, misled or ignorance;

Strategy: seeking out information and knowledge; self-reflection and understanding thought processes;

Weakness: can study details forever and never act;

Talent: wisdom, intelligence;

9. The Explorer

Type: Soul

Motto: “Don’t fence me in.”

Core desire: the freedom to find out who you are through exploring the world;

Goal: to experience a better, more authentic, more fulfilling life;

Biggest fear: getting trapped, conformity, and inner emptiness;

Strategy: journey, seeking out and experiencing new things, escape from boredom;

Weakness: aimless wandering, becoming a misfit;

Talent: autonomy, ambition, being true to one’s soul;

Then there is the type that makes foolish accusations based on no one knows what and ignores any reference to their own mistakes.

Trahebdum est in caput tuum.

Then we have the type (thank goodness) who fight AGAINST
irrational, inflexible attitudes rooted in
very rigid and stereotyped terms.

Yay for these fighters on this forum!

Issy, I hope to have a good one for you next week. As John Wayne said; or was it Daffy Duck; "Remember the Alamo!"
