- Archetypes are the architects of our lives.
- Every experience that we have contains purpose and meaning. Each event, each person in our lives embodies an energetic fragment of our own psyche and soul.
- Learning to read the archetypal patterns that influence your energy is the natural complement to working with the energy of the chakras.
- The energy that surrounds you, which is created by the chakras, contains all the data of your biology and your biography, so it makes sense that this energy would manifest in patterns of archetypes that affect your life.
- It stands to reason that the further we stray from our true mission in life, the more frustrated we will become, and the more out of sync our energy will be.

- By developing symbolic sight and archetypal language, you will grasp the whole of your life with a level of spiritual clarity that can heal the emotional and spiritual wounds you have accumulated.
- In a sense, each archetype represents a 'face' and 'function' of the Divine that manifests within each of us individually
- Archetypal patterns awaken in us our own divine potential. They can liberate us from the limitations of our thoughts and feelings.
- Archetypes can help us shed light on the dark or little-known corners of our souls and amplify our own brilliance and strengths.
- Archetypes are a source of emotional, physical and spiritual power and can help us free ourselves from fear, although sometimes, when we first get to know them, a few of them may initially unleash fears within us.
- Our spiritual challenge with any archetype - or fear - is to face it and recognize the opportunity it presents to learn its inherent lesson and develop an aspect of personal power.
- With an archetype that we perceive as difficult or even malevolent, our task is to acknowledge it, overcome whatever weakness it indicates, and work to make its divine potential our own.
