To provide a concise and comprehensive cheatsheet of Carl Jung's archetypes, I've synthesized information from the provided sources. This table captures the essence of the 12 common archetypes identified by Jung, including their core desires, fears, strategies, weaknesses, and talents. Jung's theory posits that these archetypes are universal, mythic characters residing within our collective unconscious, influencing human behavior and personality. | **Archetype** | **Core Desire** | **Greatest Fear** | **Strategy** | **Weakness** | **Talent** | **Also Known As** | |---------------|-----------------|-------------------|--------------|--------------|------------|-------------------| | Ruler | Control | Chaos, being overthrown | Exercise power | Being authoritarian, unable to delegate | Responsibility, leadership | Boss, leader, king, queen | | Innocent | To get to paradise | Being punished for wrongdoing | Do things right | Naivety | Faith and optimism | Utopian, dreamer | | Sage | To find the truth | Being duped, misled | Use intelligence and analysis | Over-analyzing | Wisdom, intelligence | Scholar, advisor | | Hero | Expert mastery in a way that improves the world | Weakness, vulnerability | Be as strong and competent as possible | Arrogance | Competence, courage | Warrior, rescuer | | Outlaw/Rebel | Liberation from oppression | Powerlessness, inconsequentiality | Disrupt, destroy, or shock | Crossing over to the dark side | Radical freedom | Revolutionary, wild spirit | | Explorer | Freedom to find out who you are through exploring the world | Getting trapped, conformity | Journey, seeking out and experiencing new things | Aimlessness | Autonomy, ambition | Adventurer, wanderer | | Creator | Create something of enduring value | Mediocrity, unoriginality | Innovate, create | Perfectionism, detachment | Creativity, imagination | Artist, inventor | | Caregiver | To protect and care for others | Selfishness, ingratitude | Doing things for others | Martyrdom, being exploited | Compassion, generosity | Altruist, parent, helper | | Magician | Understanding the fundamental laws of the universe | Unintended negative consequences | Develop a vision and live by it | Becoming manipulative | Finding win-win solutions | Visionary, catalyst | | Lover | Intimacy and experience | Being alone, unwanted | Become more physically and emotionally attractive | Losing own identity | Passion, gratitude | Partner, friend, enthusiast | | Jester | To live in the moment with full enjoyment | Being bored or boring others | Play, make jokes | Frivolity, wasting time | Joy, lightness | Fool, trickster | | Everyman | Connecting with others | Standing out or being left out | Blend in, be one of the many | Losing one's own identity | Realism, empathy | The good old boy, everyman | #humans #psychology
