Archetypes are a universal system of symbols that speak directly to the subconscious. You can use them to explore specific aspects of your psyche. Creating a conscious relationship with the various Archetypes can help you embody mature and balanced Masculinity. 

The HeroRise Masculine Archetype Deck explores the 5 major Archetypes of  Warrior, Wizard, Father, Lover, and Sovereign.

Archetypes to explore the psyche

The HeroRise Masculine Archetype deck gives you a framework to explore your psyche, so you can define what aspects serve you the best. The Masculine Archetypes give you a template you can use to find personal balance and potential.

The deck includes the Five Major Masculine Archetypes, their Sub-Archetypes, and Shadow Aspects. They can be used to understand the subtle facets of your identity. 

Sub-Archetypes

To help illustrate the subtleties of each Major Archetype, there are four Sub-Archetypes. For instance, the Warrior has the Sub-Archetypes of Activist, Athlete, Hunter, and Soldier. 

The Sub-Archetypes can be used to explore the expressions of the  Major Archetype with more detail and granularity.

Sub-Archetypes

To help illustrate the subtleties of each Major Archetype, there are four Sub-Archetypes. For instance, the Warrior has the Sub-Archetypes of Activist, Athlete, Hunter, and Soldier. 

The Sub-Archetypes can be used to explore the expressions of the  Major Archetype with more detail and granularity.  

Shadow Aspects

Each of the Five Major Archetypes has two Shadow Aspects.

If you do not consciously seek balance with an Archetype, you can begin to be ruled by the bipolar Shadow Aspects. Working with these aspects will give you a deeper understanding of your internal process, patterns, and allow growing out of past wounds.
