Are You in the Emotional or Business Wilderness?

I have seen and heard countless conversations both on and offline, and Facebook videos talking about this phenomenon, where people are feeling stuck, or as though they’ve gone backwards, or like life and it’s challenges and traumas are repeating themselves.

There’s also a sense of uncertainty about next steps, how to move on, and for those in deeper exploration, a conversation about the ego, soul, and self identity, which goes beyond the latest Mercury in retrograde.

The Power of the Archetypal Journey

This week I created an Archetypal Journey Online Quiz which you can take at the end of the Blog this idea was ‘simply’ the result of a morning meditation about what to focus on that day.

At the time I was doing the research and creating it I wasn’t consciously thinking about this trend, however having completed it I can see it’s perfect, most certainly for where I am in my life right now, and for the 100+ people from my eNewsletter list who have participated thus far.

The Archetypal Journey is made up of 8 stages.  When you’re in the thick of it, the process is often described as “the night of the dark soul,”  When you’ve made it through and out the other side as well as a sense of satisfaction for a job, contract or phase of life well done or survived, there can also be a feeling of being in the void and a sense incompleteness, emptiness or even despair as you wonder what’s next.

You may not have consciously seen this powerful journey in action however if you’ve ever enjoyed a blockbuster movie you have watched each Stage play out in glorious technicolour, from Dorothy and those red shoes and Neo in the Matrix, through to Pretty Woman, fairytales, and Luke Skywalker going on the journey to learn how to ‘use the force.’  George Lucas has openly spoken about drawing upon Joseph Campbell’s book when developing Star Wars. Joseph in turn has spoken about the work of Carl Jung, the theory upon which many business psychometric tests such as the MBTI are based. In all of these stories the main protagonist had to go on a journey to re-discover or find themselves (the Archetypal Profiles), whilst enlisting the help of a wise Mentor, Coach, or Guide along the way.

It Helps You Regain a Sense of Sanity

As well as understanding so much more about who I am and the aspects and facets of my personality as represented by the 12 Archetypal Profiles; you can find out more about them on my main website: http://tranceformationstm.com/archetypal.html#arch what conscious visibility of the Archetypal Journey provided was the big “aha moment” and clarity, peace of mind, a sense of sanity, the realisation that it was a process, an understanding of where I currently was, and most importantly how to both prepare for and move to the next stage.

I explain more about both of these aspects in the first 2 pages of the Online Quiz if this is a new subject for you. It also provides some brief suggestions about the Archetypal energy and qualities that can help you move to the next stage.
