Hi Abel,
You make an interesting point. I can put my own spin on some things from my
experience; I can see the shadow of the Adopted Child feeling left out because
my goals and exceptations are not those of the "consensus" in a group. My
shadow Prostitute gets into the act by trying to do what fits in, to sooth the
Adopted Child.
On the other hand, my empowered Victim is unconcerned about the 'private' nature
of the information shared in a group like this. The nature of the internet is
generally impersonal; there's no need for me to share such specific details that
anyone I mention could be identified. For that matter, I could remain
personally anomynous as well, if necessary. Unwittingly, I have become aware of
the benefit of my Saboteur as an ally (a challenge and a departure) - making me
aware of the nature of my shadow Prostitute and helping me realize that if I'm
not comfortable about something, there's no benefit or need to play along. My
Hermit is just fine about that anyway.
While I do benefit from the give and take about how the archetypes manifest and
what the various aspects could mean to another person. Perhaps I lose that not
remaining a part of the smaller group, but I have to honor the part of my Self
that becomes uncomfortable in any environment, while at the same time taking
time to examine the sources of that discomfort
I appreciate your insight, it's made me think differently about what's been on
my mind lately ... even if it wasn't what you meant!
Cheers -
Dawn

Hi all in the blessed land of Achetypia,
I have been reading the recent posts and I haven't commented until now
because I didn't have anything to say.
However, it just came to me that the conversation sounds/feel like when
people are tryng to figure out a pecking order. Members have talked about
voids of leadership, the reasonableness' s of splintering into smaller
groups, levels of participation and activity. I could be wrong and I will
be pecked ;-)
However, this could be an interesting exercise for the Myssian Archetypal
System.
What are some chill low-impact ways to use the understanding of member's
archetypes to organize and sustain a harmonious grouping?
This type of exercise can help energize the group while providing practical
applications of the information that can be useful at home and at work.
If this has already been done? Good!
Let's do it again!
New members to a group are newborns to a world.
They encourage those who come before to review neglected lessons/thoughts.
Be Well
Abel (Tucson)
