Publisher's summary

Have you ever felt that your life was guided by larger forces? Unseen but very real energies that influence every direction your life takes? In her renowned work as a medical intuitive, Caroline Myss examined the patterns of hundreds of archetypes that exist in human consciousness, and found that each of us has a "sacred support team" of 12 primary archetypes. Once identified, these archetypes allow you to discover your highest purpose, what she calls your "Sacred Contract". Now, in The Language of Archetypes, this three-time New York Times best-selling author brings to life a "gallery of archetypes": her first complete training course on how to identify and work with the nine major archetypal families.

Entertaining yet missing practical guide

Learning the archetypes are interesting and a bit overwhelming with so many types and some that seem could overlap. You can tell she has some issues with some folks of certain archetypes as she gets a bit aggressive in talking about some. What's missing for me is a real practical guide about how to learn the message of the archetype and move forward successfully to change patterns. I think even a few detailed thought out examples would really help this book be more than a very basic index of archaetypes

overall good but wish it came with a pdf

I feel like the author goes over the material but it would have been better if it were more structured.

The Language of Archetypes

Caroline Myss is a genius in understanding and teaching of our purpose for being.Her explanation of God are so extraordinarily easy to understand and comprehend.This book I feel is a smooth transition to all of her previous work.She truly understands the energetics of humans.If you are on a path of self discovery and have asked yourself why you are here and for what purpose, this is a MUST read.

What an interesting journey!

I downloaded this book after reading Sacred Contracts because I immediately wanted to learn more about finding my archetypes. I personally liked the live version of this book. While there are some things I'm still processing along this journey to aligning with the archetypes, there were portions of this lecture-book that were "pause and make a note" moments - that's for sure!

I'll definitely revisit this book - one time thru is not enough. I also invested in the archetype cards to have another visual and tap in a little more, so that'll be fun next time around.

If you take nothing else from this lecture, be sure to take in the "ah-ha" moments - those times when she's speaking directly to you, and tie those moments to the archetype(s) it speaks to. They're your little guides to fulfill those Sacred Contracts she refers to. Like little twinkles in the sky to light your path!

One of THE BEST Myss books!

Awesome audiobook! I loved listening to this book, it has great incites into others and ourselves. I also listen for character and story development ideas. I highly recommend to other authors, and would LOVE to participate in a discussion group for further self discovery.
