DWQA QuestionsCategory: Human PotentialWe have learned that Creator will not lead, and so with that understanding, it is wise to first survey existing literature and bodies of information for ideas of what soul attributes really may encompass. When one starts to research this topic of attributes, one unavoidably encounters the notion of archetypes. The Google dictionary has two relevant definitions for the word: 1. “A very typical example of a certain person or thing,” and 2. “A recurrent symbol or motif in literature, art, or mythology.” So archetypes denote “typical examples” and they are denoted and recognized by recurrent symbols or labels. What can Creator tell us?

This is an excellent example of how people can be both similar and different, and that this is an intentional array of possibilities readily exhibited in looking at the variety of archetypes that represent a quite stable set of characteristics and combination of soul attributes supporting a consistent profile of talents and preferences. There are quite a number of commonly defined archetypes because of the vast array of important attributes that result in distinct definable classifications. So even though one can almost always see some of a particular attribute in everyone, it is the strength of expression and the overall balance of those highly expressed and those lesser expressed that determine this overall profile and characterization as representing an archetype. These are groups of individuals that have common traits of soul attribute expression that make them better suited for certain roles in life than for others. These are useful descriptions as far as it goes because they will be readily understood by the average person, because they are a genuine depiction of reality that such groupings exist, and this can be a useful breakdown with practical implications for matching people with practical career choices that suit them, and thus more greatly ensure their success in life, and happiness which is an important goal, always, because that is a measure of inner balance and not something inherently selfish to strive for. The only reservation is these are relatively coarse divisions and labels when there is truly a much more infinite spectral array of blendings, but it is true enough that the archetypes, representing a definable and discernible preponderance of common characteristics for their category, are not an accident but represent a configuration that works because it has a place in things and of value to society, and thus serves the human family as a collective. In a complex world, particularly one with heavy obstacles and being in a state of incompletion and disconnection in many important respects because of outside manipulations, humanity needs as many talented and capable individuals as possible who can assume the major needed roles to keep civilization going and provide a path to enlightenment while doing it. So the archetypes, in that sense, are an inevitability of the demands of existence in the physical plane, in particular, and this is why they seem somewhat limited, because they are representing the talents and capabilities needed particularly by physical beings in a physical environment, not to mention inhabiting a world under siege by the rise of evil, so much in the way of configuration of the mix of soul attributes is a divine answer for the challenges you face in being subjugated and harmed over and over again by interlopers wanting to control and abuse you. You will need many strengths and talents to throw off the yoke of oppression, and awaken to the need for healing, and apply yourselves to the task.
