journal prompts to ACTUALLY understand yourself (using the archetypes) 

**The creator** What do you want your legacy to be? Do you think you're creative? Why/why not? How do you think you could cultivate creativity/out of the box thinking? Do you have a burning life passion? Do you think you'd be more fulfilled chasing your passion or finding balance? Are you a perfectionist? **The lover** Do you think you're a sensitive person? Do you feel like you act impulsively? When was the last time you were heartbroken? **The magician** When was the time in your life when you were manipulative? Do you think the universe is working in your favor? What's something that you wish you could change? **The caregiver** Who's someone in your life that relies on you? In what capacity? Who's someone in your life that you rely on for support? In what capacity? Who's someone online that you rely on for support? In what capacity? What's an area in your life that you give too much of yourself to? **The sage** Who's someone that's taught you something that has had a profound impact on you? What's a topic that you wish you were more knowledgeable about? **The everyman ** What's a skill that you think you're completely average at? What's the oldest object that you own in your life and still use everyday? **The hero** What's the bravest thing you've done? What's the area in your life you're too prideful/egoistic in? **The jester** Do you think you're funny/lighthearted? Do you think you take things too seriously? How have you found humor in a very serious situation? **The rebel** What's the time in your life that you stood up for yourself? What's the time in your life that you stood up for another person? What's the time that you should have stood up for someone, but didn't? Why? **The innocent** What area of life are you naive about? What's a topic of conversation that you don't like to talk about/shy away from? What's something that you think is really cool? /fills you with childlike wonder? **The ruler** Do you personally feel a responsibility to yourself and the world around you? Why? Why not? If you had the power to impact change, would you do a good job? Do you think it's more important to maintain stability, or embrace change? **The explorer** What's an area of life where you take the most risk?

Too many people give vague advice like “start a journal” This is actually helpful and a beautifully laid out plan. Thank you for this ❤

Can you do a tour of all your notebooks, skechbook or commonplacebook plisss🐛

I started with these last week! I'm currently on the magician and so far I've been loving the experience or writing under some type of concept or premise. I'm getting the feeling I'll learn so much from this, thanks!! This is also making me fall in love with writing a lot more! xoxo

i've really been struggling with 'finding myself' (whatever that means) and figuring out who I want to be. I'm soo excited to try this it came at the perfect time

THIS IS SO HELPFUL since I just took the "get to know yourself" and "you don't have to perform" points from your commonplace book seriously and started one about a week ago :))

also maybe a good prompt for the caregiver ? - in what ways do you show up for others you dont for yourself ?

Ngl, wasn't going to do this...but after watching the video, I'm going to find time to do this. I was trying to think of moments in my life that answered some of these as I was watching.

Interesting idea! I used to like the MBTI but never looked into Jung's subconscious stuff much. That part of the mind is the most mysterious and also the biggest part of ourselves. I'm starting to become fascinated with it as I get older.

there are so many journal prompts i just dont like or i can’t get into but i really liked these prompts and they were actually interesting and they provoked thought in my mind. i wanted to answer them as soon as i heard them because my brain instantly thought of an answer to write. these linked to stuff in my life and resonated with me rather than other journal prompts that seem like theyre “mindful/mediation” ish vibes so thank you for this :)

wonderful wonderful video!! i struggle w journal prompts sometimes (they're usually either vague & cliche or they box me in), but these were very introspective and truly made me examine some blindspots of mine

i love specific guides, thank you

okay so i tried some of these and i realized that i always tried to write poetry about the stuff which came up but never truly acknowledged what it was until now!!! I DONT KNOW IF IT MAKES SENSE BUT I LOVE THESE

This is such an interesting way to approach self discovery through journaling, thank you! I especially love is as a psychology student :)

Thank you for these things, they are great prompts. I look forward to more journaling tips from you!

Interesting video. It feels like the questions start off strong but peter out pretty quickly, by the end the explorer archetype basically just having the one question.

this is one of the best videos i have ever watched, thank you so much for making this

JUST WHAT I WAS SEARCHING FOR THANK YOU SM !!!

The magician was so ON POINT it really resonated

Hi! I study psych and i also read tarot. its quite interesting how much carl jung's work can be found in the rider waite deck, especially the major arcana

Thank you eternally for this! ❤

Sheesh, these are amazing questions to ask ourselves. Great work!

Big Jung admirer. Stealing these questions for later. Love the video

I love where your mind goes. You make the most interesting videos. I hope you are great. I also would be interested in seeing more of your art and notebooks and sketchbooks. Love that you showed art from one of my favorite artists. Gustav K. Do you like his best friend Egon S. ?

If I don't have answers for a specific archetype, how would I go about changing that ? If u know

Starting this today (6/28), wrote down all the questions, I'll write my updates in the comments
