Im sharing a way into working with archetypes from as astrology perspective.

Astrology & Archetypes: Understanding the Energies We Carry

One of the most powerful ways to understand astrology is through archetypes.

The planets aren’t just objects in the sky — they represent ancient archetypal energies that live within us. These archetypes come from mythology and psychology, and they describe different parts of our personality, motivations, and life path.

Think of them as characters within your inner world.

For example:

🔥 Mars – The Warrior

Mars represents our drive, anger, passion, and how we take action. In mythology, Mars is the God of War.

Your Mars sign shows how your inner warrior operates.

My Mars is in Aries, which is actually Mars’ home sign. Aries is the ram — bold, direct, and fearless. So this placement can show up as strong leadership energy, initiative, and a willingness to confront things head-on.

The shadow side? It can sometimes feel intense, reactive, or combative if that energy isn’t consciously channelled.

💬 Mercury – The Messenger (Hermes)

Mercury governs communication, thinking, and how we process information.

My Mercury is also in Aries, the fire ram. That means communication can come out fast, direct, and very honest. Some people experience this as refreshing clarity… others might perceive it as blunt or intense. But at its core, this archetype values truth and courage in expression.

💗 Venus – The Lover

Venus represents love, relationships, pleasure, beauty, and what we value.

For example, Venus in Taurus tends to value security, comfort, home, sensuality, and beautiful surroundings. This archetype wants stability, loyalty, and the enjoyment of life’s simple luxuries.

🌟 The North Node – Your Soul’s Direction

The North Node in astrology represents the evolutionary path of the soul — the qualities and archetypes we are learning to grow into in this lifetime.

When you look at your North Node sign and house, you start to understand:

• What your soul is here to develop• What energies you’re being asked to embody• Where your growth and purpose lie

When we understand our signs, planets, and houses, we start to see which archetypes are most alive in us — the Warrior, the Messenger, the Lover, the Teacher, the Healer.

And instead of fighting these energies, we can work with them consciously.

Astrology isn’t about being boxed in.

It’s about self-awareness.

It’s about recognising the archetypal energies moving through us and asking:

✨ How can I express this energy in its most empowered form?

I’m curious —Which archetypes show up strongly in your chart?

Warrior? Lover? Healer? Visionary?

I used to do natal chart readings as well for a fee, it takes me around 48 hours to do, i don't have lots of capacity for this but if people want to go deep ill offer it for this community only.
