​DEFINITION of ANALYZING THE IMPORTANCE OF ARCHETYPES: Archetypes are energy imprints, signs and symbols, which make up our collective understanding and psychological programing. Archetypes form the blueprints of our interpersonal relationships, our views of ourselves, our roles in the world and all the events of human affairs. These energetic imprints also form the backbone of divination methods (such as i ching, tarot or astrology) which all involve interpreting archetypes in positions. Archetypes can help us better understand ourselves, the world around us and the pathway toward enlightenment.
