Everyone
marches to one of these five drummers. We gravitate toward an environment that suits our character;
similarly, it's easiest to develop in áreas where we have natural talent. (book)

The quality of being is shared by all four primary feminine
archetypes, but it is a specialty of the Earth Mother. This archetype
symbolizes the feminine aspect of our instinct for activity. Her partner is the
Warrior. The aim of both is power and success and each uses our energy in
different ways: he for doing, she for being. Of everything associated with
femininity, being is perhaps most misunderstood. In the Western world we link
it with passivity, indolence, powerlessness, and victimization. In an effort to
avoid such stigmas, many of us overrule our natural inclinations and force
ourselves to stay busy.
Where his emphasis is on the product, hers is on the
process. She defines power and success as becoming completed through developing
intimate relationships with our bodies, our unconscious selves, other people,
nature, and the cycles of life. Like the fertility goddesses who carry her
image, the human mothers who carry out her mission, and the planet Earth which
carries life, the Earth Mother archetype creates, nurtures, births and protects
new life in us.
She’s the part of us that honors the truths of our souls and
our particular way of being, regardless of how different we might be. Her
self-awareness and sensory savvy show us where to relax our wills and support
otherness, how to relinquish our obsessive doing and busyness, when to let go
of our children and other attachments, and when to accept life’s activity upon
us instead of forcing it to serve our purposes. Her receptive beingness is
actually a creative form of giving that promotes growing and becoming.
To be this receptive does not mean we are always flowing
about without an anchor. It just means we have reverence for transcendent
powers and uncontrollable natural forces and do not struggle needlessly against
them. Earth Mother’s receptivity is as stabilizing as it is free-flowing. As
David Rosen, author of The Tao of Jung says, “The Tao (the Way) is both fixed
and moving at the same time.” It is fixed in its respect for the sacredness of
life; it moves in accordance with the natural evolution of life.
Chu Hsi, a commentator on the Tao Te Ching, said this: “The
female is one who receives something and, with it, creates. This creative
principle is the most marvelous thing in the universe.” This is true feminine
power.

La conjuradora es una mujer profundamente conectada a la
tierra. Mujer ritual. Es magia y espíritu, y trabajadora de las raíces
espirituales. Hechicera-sacerdotisa-pastora. Bruja. La que no tiene nombre. La
oradora más antigua.

La pequeña bruja escandinava que trae bendiciones durante la Pascua
Una bruja de la Pascua (easter witch en inglés, påskkärring en sueco, y pääsiäisnoita, en finés) es la figura central de la tradición escandinava llamada Virvonta o Virpominen, la cual se lleva a cabo durante la Pascua en Finlandia y Suecia. La visita de las brujas de Pascua sucede durante su vuelo a la montaña de Blåkulla, donde acuden con sus calderos o viejas cafeteras para celebrar allí una fiesta.

Incluso ahora, muchas personas siguen mirando en la
påskkärring el remanente de la antigua sacerdotisa-bruja que bendecía la
tierra y oficiaba alegres ritos para celebrar la llegada de la primavera y el
renacimiento de la vida sobre la tierra. "Virvon, varvon, tuoreeks terveeks,
tulevaks vuodeks; vitsa sulle, palkka mulle!" (Sacudo una ramita para que
el año que tenemos por delante sea próspero y saludable; ¡una ramita para ti, y
un regalito para mí!).

The primal Archetype of Water relates to the vastness and the depths of the unconscious mind. Jung observed long ago that the unconscious mind was much vaster than the conscious portion. His insight has been confirmed by fascinating developments in neuroscience, where new technologies, such as particularly sophisticated MRIs have enabled brain scientists to see that the unconscious processes in the brain dwarf the conscious mind in magnitude.

The Philosopher gives birth to new ideas—her power percolates in the deep inner chasm of the mind. Water is characterized by the Philosopher. A Water type lives in the interior, preoccupied with seeking truth and exploring hidden mysteries through the medium of imagination.
The
Water archetype is the Philosopher who brings to light that which is hidden,
uncovering new knowledge, dispelling mystery, eroding ignorance. Like an
old–time prospector, she sifts through the gravel of notions and beliefs,
tireless in her effort to apprehend the nature of reality. Time is the pick and
shovel of the Philosopher who exhumes the bones of culture that endure,
doggedly in search of truth. Able to envision what can be, she is critical of
what is. As the custodian of our ancestral memories and dreams, she articulates
our aspirations.
