Publisher's summary

Archetypes, the latest work from New York Times best-selling author Caroline Myss, offers listeners an engaging and illuminating way to better understand themselves and those closest to them. Whether we're aware of it or not, each of us identifies with certain universal myths and symbols, otherwise known as Archetypes. In this new work, Myss covers 10 primary archetypes: Caregiver, Artist, Fashionista, Intellectual, Rebel, Queen/Executive, Advocate, Visionary, Athlete, and Spiritual Seeker. She helps us to determine which archetypes best define us as individuals, laying out each archetype’s unique path, hidden strengths, and potential weaknesses.

By identifying our personal archetypes, we can gain the knowledge necessary to consciously define and live an authentic life that reflects who we really are. Myss also includes suggestions for embracing one's archetype to the fullest, providing tools for avoiding common pitfalls and daily practices for enhancing the positive qualities of each archetype. In addition to the 10 archetypes above, there’s a glossary covering more than 20 sub-archetypes.

Much like highly popular books on the enneagram, Myers and Briggs, and astrology, which also allow people to type themselves, Archetypes is destined to become a classic. Its publication is set to coincide with the launch of a major new social platform, www.ArchetypeMe.com, where users can take a quiz to discover their archetype and find an individualized experience around content and community.

Archetypes

I love Caroline and everything she has to offer, but her frequent bitching, humiliating, and screaming at us listeners of late has gotten out of hand. "Go put your head in the toilet ...." Really?! Walk the talk, lady! I don't think you are making the point you think you are...

Caroline's explanations are transformative!

My understanding of archetypes and patterns would not be where it is without the teachings and style of Caroline Myss. She is a magnificent teacher; and I'm so grateful having discovered her on HayHouse Radio long ago. Thank You Caroline for your treasured gifts and teachings.

Great book if you want to know who you really are

I have just finished listening to this audio and am just blown away! This is one of those books that have definitely an impact on me, on the direction of my journey and my way of thinking. Very deep topic. Great book to help you to analyze your own personality, your potentials, strengths and weaknesses and also helps to find your own purpose. It helps you to understand what kind of person you really are. I love this audio because it has been red by the author, and Myss is a wonderful reader, with lots of humor. The author encourage to follow your intuition and purpose which gives a lot of positive energy and strength. The tempo of reading is also perfect. Myss as a reader gives you the time to stop for a while and reflect, which is very powerful. I can strongly recommend this book!

Introduction to Archetypes

This was absolutely fascinating. So many things I took for granted until Caroline Myss pointed them out and made me think and re-think this vast subject field of archetypes. She has scathing humor and is very frank- nothing for the faint-hearted.
I intend to dive deeper into the sea of archetypes.
