Artemis - exercises for development of qualities of this goddess

This post opens a series of publications about the main female archetypes. In this case - archetypes of goddesses.

What is an archetype. I will explain by the own words as I understand it.

Imagine a certain power-information field - memory of infinitely huge universal computer, where all information on everything is written down - what was that is and what will be. The structure of this field very difficult is also not subject to neither understanding, nor the description by usual language. However energy and the memory of all animals, all gods, all literary heroes, all famous people of all times, tribes, the countries and the people, all horoscopes and so on is kept there.

Each of us has an invisible communication with this universal memory and this energy. Except that we bring in the cages the genetic memory of our blood ancestors, to DNA - prints of all events of the past in our sort, we also sometimes feel in ourselves certain animal impulses - someone feels as a lion, someone a tiger, someone a cat, someone an elephant...

You will look at other woman and you see in her the Baba-yaga, and in another - womanly Aphrodite, and in the third - forever young Persefona... What is it? From where in us do lines of these or those persons, animals, gods appear from time to time?

The archetype is a most ancient type, a certain prototype of a being, the personality, deity which thanks to art, literature, scientific treatises, other types of information transfer from generation to generation - becomes recognizable in behavior, appearance, acts of people.

Each archetype bears in itself certain lines. A bear - force. A lion - the power. A tiger - freedom.
Zeus - the power, Aphrodite - beauty, the Baba-yaga - wisdom. And influence of these archetypes on us, in us, from the outside of us, happens unconsciously.

Knowing and understanding characteristic of each archetype, it is possible to use them as symbols, anchors, reference points for development in himself necessary qualities.

Speaking energy language, studying an archetype and connecting to it, we can use all its strong qualities and trace in ourselves - undesirable.

Let's consider it on the example of an archetype of the goddess Artemis.

Artemis
Goddess of the Moon, Goddess of hunting
Communication with the nature, understanding of own requirements.

Initially Artemis was the goddess of the Moon, it was born together with Apollo – god of light, the patron of arts. Then Artemis becomes a goddess – the hunter, keeping communication with the nature, understanding and respecting its laws.

Presently the woman with the dominating Artemis's archetype plays sports, loves competitions, watches over the health and beauty, force, endurance, ability to achieve goals are of great importance for her. She appreciates the time and does not spend force for nothing. Its attention is directed to achievement of result, a combination of water and fiery aspects allow it to be at the same time in contact with themselves and with the external environment.

The yoga and other corporal practicians help to make active energy of this or that archetype.
