Female Archetypes

Hello ladies, and good time zone! 

I wanted to share this image with you all on Female Archetypes. Female Archetypes are often explained as the energy you place out into the world as a woman. Remember, as women, we all give out energy differently and can display it differently than one another. 

Here is the image:

From personal experience with my own healing journey, I went from The Huntress, The Sage, The Mystic, and finally The Mother. 

My question to you ladies, which female archetype do you feel you started at, and where do you feel you are at currently? 

* There are no wrong answers* <3

@InsightfulPhoenix I understand someone identifying strongly with one or more of these but I'm not really a fan of the archetypes for real people, especially women.

It might be useful for developing a character for any form of story-telling. We can start to view real women as stereotypes though if using this type of lens too strongly. Every woman is a complex, unique person who shares some personality traits with others and those traits have flexibility.

Your opinion is valid, however the point of this discussion is not for stereotyping is to promote self awareness through healing stages through the well known female archetypes. Thank you for your input.
