At different points in our lives, we often find ourselves questioning our choices and recurring situations. These moments of introspection lead us to ponder why we continuously act in certain ways or encounter similar circumstances. Carl Jung’s concept of ‘archetypes’ describe the instinctive roles we embody- the parent, the child, the hero, the lover, and an array of others. Among these numerous archetypal roles, a select few become our ‘dominant archetypes.’ These prevalent personas tend to manifest more frequently, shaping our responses to life situations. Relying heavily on familiar roles might sometimes limit our perspectives. It’s akin to seeing everything as a nail when you’re a hammer- an unconscious bias that might hinder our ability to explore alternative approaches, and a wholistic, balanced solutions to our life decisions.
