I was interested to know about my female archetype, which I think might be the combination of the queen and the wise. But wanted to dive deeper into other archetypes also.

So, the concept of seven female archetypes analyzed by Carl Jung might help us, women, to understand some important insights. For instance, the mother, the maiden, the queen, the huntress, the sage, the mystic, and the lover are seven female archetypes.

Through all seven of these, we can have an idea about what kind of person we are, what we want to be, and what we don’t want to be. All of these insights can help us to utilize our intrinsic nature for good.

Let us find out which one you resonate with the most:

i) The Lover

This archetype usually portrays a passionate and adventurous kind of vibe. Because of their free-spirited and passionate nature, they desire to have thrilling relationships. Whereas, the lover’s emotions might run wild if she is not cautious and unable to control her emotions.

Some of the examples are Marilyn Monroe, Samantha from Sex and the City, Rose from Titanic

ii) The Maiden
