ARCHETYPE | SCORPIO   

CORE ENERGY : INTENSITY & COMMITMENT TO PERSONAL GROWTH

house 8 | ruler Pluto | co-ruler  Mars 

fixed archetype | female receptive | water | YIN

it is an energy moving towards the center

MYTHOLOGY |  Hades, Orion, Artemis, Oedipus, Hippolytus, Hydra Lernaia

the archetype Scorpio correlates with the evolutionary journey of the soul, the commitment to personal growth and the need to merge with a higher source of power, an universal one. we are facing our very own pre-existing limitations in order to transmute them and evolve out of these past patterns of behaviour that are inhibiting growth. in this archetype we confront the brightest aspects of our nature, and the darkest parts of our nature. 

in a positive natural expression of this archetype the person will motivate others to transmute and grow past their pre-existing limitations in a non-manipulative manner (without promoting a dependency upon him or herself). in addition, the person will be willing and able to confront their own limitations and affect the necessary metamorphosis without being dependant upon another or an external source of power. 

based on a need to penetrate into the core of oneself and others to the [bottom line],  perpetually the question [why?] will be constantly brought up. cracking open the ribs down to the very bone to see what is inside.

in a distorted, or conditioned, negative expression  the need of a compulsive need will be manifested to maintain past ways of being, and overtly or covertly manipulate others and sources of power for their own self-benefit. obsession with an external source that represents the power they are seeking will be manipulated for their own ends. defensiveness and resistance to change are also negative manifestations of this archetype. 

based on the awareness of its own limitations and a high commitment to personal growth its strong desire nature leads the Scorpio to merge and absorb the power from powerful symbols and sources to effect metamorphosis to attain greater levels of personal growth and evolution. these symbols of power can be almost anything such as relationships, knowledge, status, money, sex, spirituality, etc., depending on the level of evolution.  

this archetype has a deep fascination with sexual energy. sexual union is a way it can metamorphose its limitations. Scorpio is really looking for a partner with whom it resonates with on a deep soul level. in casual relationships, when it has fulfilled some sexual need connected with power it can also shape shift to the 'black widow spider.'  

shameless or just a natural way of being in its own sexual power shaping my alignment - fe[male] on a soul level expressing primal energies within an universal language a journey leading me to my inception into the core of my essence why can/t you see? who is gonna crack you open like me, you loosing all your composure. free. raw flesh. an unfiltered dialogue.  you wanna be good? what does that mean anyway?  a core pain opening the door to scorpio pain of transformation

ANIMUS ANIMA

the animus and anima, are two primary archetypes of the collective unconscious, a domain of the unconscious that transcends the personal psyche.

the ANIMUS in the unconscious of a man, finds its expression as a feminine inner personality: anima

equivalently, the ANIMA in the unconscious of a woman is expressed as a masculine inner personality: animus.

both of these primary archetypes, the anima and animus, can be identified as the totality of the unconscious feminine psychological qualities that a man possesses or the masculine ones possessed by a woman, respectively.

the shadows are our unknown, the dark side. a "... part of that power which eternally wills evil and eternally works good.” [faust]. It is “... an unconscious aspect of the personality which the conscious ego does not identify in itself. because one tends to reject or remain ignorant of the least desirable aspects of one's personality, the shadow is largely negative, or the entirety of the unconscious, i.e., everything of which a person is not fully conscious. everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual's conscious life, the blacker and denser it is."[jung] image by www.cathrinschulz.com

the start. the start of exploring a game. an inevitable one. A MASTER GAME. LIFE. 

this visual diary of  [CODE 12 | THE MASTER GAME] is an unfiltered dialogue. it is the process of creating a matrix that will be the foundation to visualise photographically the 12 ARCHETYPES. it is an Odyssee of exploring the mythology behind it and of connecting it to my very own path by opening the doors to my personal subconsciousness and to even step into the collective unconscious.

it is a project incorporating the wisdom of astrologists, energy healers and psychics - opening up the thresholds of dimensions beyond the HERE and NOW to the “and yet” world.

[CODE 12 | in the know of shades] will then be the visualisation of the 12 archetypes and the end result of this dialogue. it is a continuation of the project CRYING WOLVES | 61., walking my soul path to higher consciousness.
