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.

Wow

Honestly I was surprised when it ended because I wanted more. I believe this is something I will listen to over and over again. Really great insight!

Glad I finally got this one

Had this on my wishlist forever and glad I finally listened. I think the negative reviews and comments on the author are a little off. Granted, she sometimes does sound like she's yelling at you :) but to me it has the quality of an impassioned preacher. I think when spiritual teachers take this stance it's because they are trying to get you to disidentify from what is false in you. Anyway, my two cents. The recording is a series of talks rather than a book literally being read, but I liked that.

At times privileged and offensive

I like most of her work but she's kind of hideously nasty towards mothers and I find it incredibly off putting. I almost just stopped listening. she's outdated and offensive. In another book she was incredibly racially insensitive. I'm starting to see her as the epitome of privilege and it's making it more challenging for me to get anything from her books. I wish she would check herself a bit.
