Temporal Archetypes

In the previous articles, you have been able to discover that divination is a tool that can serve both the conscience and an individual for himself, the realization of his objectives and his dreams, as well as the redefinition of his personal balance; thus it serves the evolution of humanity by allowing each individual to affirm his identity and to refine the authentic expression of his personal truth by allowing him to channel his energies, in the service of the life which has been offered to him. . Each individual serves life in their own way, relying on their senses, feelings and vision to create a life that best meets their personal needs.

CYCLES AND SEASONS

Each individual experiences life according to a universal pattern, which is inscribed in space and time: the seasons, the cycles of the sun and the moon, birth and death defining the great borders that fascinate so much that they frighten. Your outlook on life therefore depends on your awareness of the world and your potential for expansion, which can be influenced by the awareness that Humanity has constructed of its own identity. To survive, Humanity had to explore, question and design rules and tools that allowed it to go beyond its limits, to arrive at the model that you are experiencing today.

This model is nothing but a complex construction, resulting from the multiple experiences of our ancestors which, with each generation, have been refined to allow the survival of the species. Humanity therefore always follows the same cycles and responds to the same needs, but in a completely new way, responding to the essential needs of its time. As an oracle, practitioner and as an individual you experience these cycles and they in turn influence your practice, so it is vital to understand what purposes they serve and how best to approach them to act wisely. in your practice and your daily life.

• Cycles of seasons and seasons of the soul
  Each individual and each entity present on Earth responds to the cycle of the seasons, directly or indirectly each element that constitutes the planet Earth works interdependently, providing a harmonious balance to our planetary ecosystem. As a living being, you are biologically dependent on the cycles of the seasons for your food, your hormonal cycles and all your basic needs, which therefore implies that your divinatory practice is directly impacted by the cycle of the seasons, whether you are aware of it or not. No!
  
  This implies that your evolution is cyclical and that the influence of the past experiences of your ancestors have an impact on you and on generations to come. Your experience and your life are therefore crucial elements, bringing to your lineage and to the human species unique lessons and experiences, which will nourish the collective unconscious when you die and your community during your lifetime. Your soul, your lineage and the human species therefore pass through phases of evolution similar to the four seasons, which it is your oracular responsibility to identify, in order to provide your consultants and yourselves with fair and aligned with the needs of the current season.
  
  In winter, you take time to rest and regenerate, the earth does the same to prepare for the harvests of summer, it is a time for introspection and questioning narrow patterns. to start again on a sound basis. In the spring, you take the time to awaken to the new possibilities available to you, to adopt new habits and to cleanse yourself of the excesses of winter, you prepare the fields for the next harvest by planting your seeds. In the summer, you nurture the work done in the spring, you reap the fruits of your labor, enjoy the sunshine, and share the joy of being alive with those you love. In autumn, you take the time to take stock and prepare for the return of winter, you enjoy the last rays of the sun with calm.
  
  Identifying these cycles will allow you to get a clearer picture of the energetic movements present in your life and those of your consultants.

• Hormonal cycles and polarities
  Your body naturally follows the cycle of the seasons, the very nature of the earth's environment has allowed the human species to adapt to the different rhythms of the sun and the moon, so as to allow it to survive in an optimal way. As you have seen before, men and women respond to these cycles in complementary ways, allowing the human species to grow in subtle interdependence.
  
  Men and women therefore respond, biologically speaking, in different ways to these cycles; each individual having their own internal cycles reacting in a unique way to the proposals of their environment: the cycles of your hormones and your sleep are therefore not only vital for your survival, but also a powerful indicator of your individual positioning in the great cycles of universal evolutions.
  
  Whether you are an oracle or a consultant, it is therefore fundamental to identify your cycles and follow their evolution, in order to identify your fundamental needs in a precise way and to satisfy them in a sensible way. Don't forget that a choice at a time T will have an impact on the rest of your cycles. Showing patience and discernment is often the key to your most severe concerns: choosing to observe before acting will save you a lot of pitfalls!
  
  

TEMPORAL ARCHETYPES

Whether you are an experienced practitioner or a complete beginner, you may have already understood that divination is a practice that takes place over time: the analysis of future energies to know what fate has in store for you, studying the past to heal of present evils, develop your intuition by analyzing in depth your feelings and your daily experiences, etc.

All these techniques allow you to position yourself in your life, your approach and your understanding of time and the way your identity fits into its field of expression and develops out of time is the key to a total divinatory practice. , opening you up to unexpected discoveries about your core nature and identity.

As with the basic approaches to divination, you will now be able to discover the different archetypes of temporal analyzes that will allow you to articulate the notions of time, deep identity and personal positioning in your life and in your divinatory practice. in depth.

• The past and identity memory
  What we call past represents the memory that we have of events that we have lived, or that we would have liked to live. This means that the notion of the past for your divinatory practice is a vast and unique subject for each individual: some experience a wound dating back decades as if it happened yesterday, still others lose memories of their life and part of their identity with.
  
  What defines the notion of the past is therefore the relationship that an individual maintains with an experience lived or not, his emotional feelings as much as physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Some memories are transmitted from generation to generation through the body, thus confusing people who have no direct connection with these experiences.
  
  When you study the energies of the past, you use the lens of the present moment to touch an emotional memory embedded in an individual's body, body, mind, or soul. This approach therefore makes it possible to "go back" in time to go to the source of this memory in order to heal the origin rather than the apparent symptoms.
  
  
• The present and the experience of the moment
  What is called the present represents all the experiences and feelings closest to the identity with which an individual likes to identify. This is why certain mental illnesses and certain physical sufferings can be so subtle to identify: even if there does not seem to be an immediate connection between the symptoms experienced and the life experience of an individual, the suffering is there. .
  
  Whether or not an individual is aware of how they define themselves in their life, in their personal history and in the history of their lineage, unconscious wounds perceived as "normal" will not be treated and will impact the person's life. more or less obvious. We often speak of a family curse or a transgenerational cycle.
  
  Feelings, emotions and experiences are stored in the body, heart, soul and spirit of an individual, if left untreated, like a foreign body, the different layers of identity of an individual s adapt to its presence in more or less optimal ways.
  
  Studying the energies of the present is therefore just as much about observing the sum of an individual's experience at a given moment, but also all the memories and legacies of this person's lineage and the way in which they fit into his or her life. .
  
  
• The future and change
  What is called the future is none other than the sum of the hopes, dreams and expectations that an individual wishes to embody or which they wish to experience consciously. This means that the future is just as much an extension of the past as it is of the present and that it does not depend solely on the fate that was assigned at the birth of an individual.
  Studying future energies, therefore, is not only observing the unique path of an individual that has been planned for him, it is exploring in a fluid and flexible way all the potential destinies at his disposal, according to the decisions taken at some time.
  
  Destiny, karma and all the energetic notions implying that an individual cannot act on his life are in reality the illustration of a vision of the future: if an individual does not fundamentally change the vision he has of himself, then he will always act with respect for this identity which will inevitably lead him in the same direction.
  On the other hand, if the person becomes aware of his unconscious patterns and chooses to act actively and consciously differently, then the destiny planned for him will no longer apply and will change according to the new identity this person has chosen to embody!

You can already begin to see how the concept of time and the different temporal archetypes can overlap with each other and how the way an individual defines themselves and acts in the world, impacts their destiny and their life in an organic way. But how do you evolve a person's identity in such a way as to achieve a vision and goals that are more in line with their identity so as to create a harmonious life?

This is where mindfulness divination or benevolent divination comes in. Through careful observation of an individual's emotions, behaviors and feelings in an open and curious way, you will be able to go to the source of his personal truth to help him consciously express his deep identity, outside of any temporal influence.

EGOTIC IDENTITY

What defines the identity of an individual in contemporary society is most often his name, his professional status, his family origins, his social titles, his family, his friends, his possessions and the personality he has developed. built over time.
This type of identity is therefore particularly fragile to unexpected and uncontrollable changes in life that we call fate or chance, because its construction is linked only to notions of external possessions that have nothing to do with the deep truth of a person: his feelings, his passions and his way of expressing himself and perceiving the world.

An identity is not constructed unless it is based on ego needs; the deep identity of an individual is something that cannot be changed, it is an authentic expression of natural feelings.
The revelation of this identity and the removal of the social mask is sometimes painful. today many LGBTQ+ people seeking to express their deep feelings of identity face fierce resistance, as challenging an ego identity can feel like a personal attack.

This is not the case, but the person who bases his identity on his ego will one day or another experience deep questioning which will force him to let go of everything he took for granted in his life. This experience can feel like a death: imagine that the clothes you are currently wearing are your skin, in your strong interior you perceive them as your skin, it is fragile and must be protected from any shock.

When a person speaks their truth in front of you, your "skin" takes a hit, because you feel good about them that their clothes are not their skin, but you don't understand why or how it works, so you seek to protect your skin because it just tugs on your ego and makes you bleed.

When you are in pain and you don't understand why, when your life is collapsing before your eyes, when you feel like you are losing control, it is an important moment in your life, when your vision of your identity, of your ego skin, of your social mask is called into question in order to allow you to identify who you really are under the layers of conditioning.

Now imagine that you want to remove this skin like a garment, if you are deeply aware that your skin is actually a garment, you can remove it without any problem, if not, you will have the feeling of being scratched lively! This is why it is essential to take your time in the process of becoming aware of your deep identity, or you risk hurting yourself.

DEEP IDENTITY

The deep identity of an individual could be described as his essence, his personal truth, the timeless being which, whatever the circumstances, the incarnations or the conditions cannot be changed. It is the core that allows the individual to understand the world around him and to adapt to his environment without being impacted at the fundamental level. Some would call it the soul, but I think the soul is a particular expression of it. To recognize and embody your deep identity, you will have to take the time to know yourself.

Life and its multiple experiences are there to allow you to get in touch with your essential being and to identify through your feelings, your behaviors, your thoughts and your natural abilities how it expresses itself to you. through you in this life. Your deep identity is therefore not a person that you must embody to be yourself, it is a state of mind, a state of being and a relationship to the world that allows you to see beyond appearances and to call on your original creative abilities to create a life that deeply resembles you.

Somehow you already experience this presence in your life, you are just not aware of it. By using symbolic language and divination, you allow yourself to get in touch with that part of you that is just waiting for your green light to actively participate in the creation of your life.
This part allows you to connect spiritually and energetically to life, a child of the divine, you will be able to connect to the Source of creation through it and channel your fundamental energies to express your divine truth on Earth.
