Twelve Archetypes Initiation (LightWorker™ Series) This initiation is one of the many, channelled by Dr. Joshua David Stone, shown on the picture to the right. They are from a numbered list of 303 initiations. We have sorted them differently, but we have kept the number as well, but skipped the "The" in front of all names. Dr. Stone gave them free as true gifts from our eternal and infinite Spirit, coming directly from the Absolute Source of Divine Light and Divine Love. We will do simple manuals to them when we have time, mainly with material from Wikipedia. And remember they are all free of any charge and obligation. You are free to copy and pass on. If you translate, then please pass a copy to both of us:

Receiving the Initiation Start with Gassho (prayer posture). Meditate on the light and love energies around you, above you and inside of you. Ask the help of your higher self and others of your helpers such as the mighty I AM Presence, the angels and archangels, masters and mahatma guides of meditation, ascension and initiation. Accept receiving the initiation from your teacher. Sense the energies! Enjoy! Expand! Relax...
Passing on the Initiation To pass the Initiation to others do the same process as above. Just intend to pass them and read them out loud waiting for a few moments in-between initiations sensing the energies running and the spiritual shifts. Trust in the Higher Wisdom and Power. Enjoy! Expand! Relax..
Twelve Archetypes Initiation The modern concept of archetypes was formulated by Carl Jung. (Carl Jung Initiation by Dr. Joshua David Stone (LightWorker™ Series) manual by Alasdair Bothwell Gordon). Archetypes are part of the collective unconscious. It has been suggested that the human brain is like computer hardware, while archetypes are like software that is loaded on to the computer and allow it to run in a preset manner. We may use only one or two favourite programs until a particular need arises. Frequently, we find the other programs we need are already installed on our computer. Archetypes are part of the process that organises the things we see, do or experience and how we perceive the world. They include factors such as heredity, upbringing, life experiences, and the individual interpretation of life events. They are not unlike Freud’s “instincts” and work in a similar way.
Anyone who is familiar with the book Sacred Contracts by Caroline Myss will know that she sees archetypes as the architects of life and the energy guides that can direct us towards our spiritual purpose. They are the energy fields through which we can learn to understand ourselves. In Sacred Contracts, each of us has twelve archetypes, four that are common to everyone (called, in the book, survival archetypes) and eight that are chosen by the individual. The survival archetypes symbolize our major life challenges and how we choose to survive and maintain our selfesteem. They represent the issues, fears, and weaknesses that cause us to give our spiritual and even our physical power away. In becoming more familiar with these four archetypes, they can become our most treasured allies in preventing us from giving away our power. For example, the Prostitute archetype can show someone how s/he is prostituting him/herself in the world, whether it is in a job or even in a marriage or other important relationship. Although Sacred Contracts speaks of twelve archetypes, these twelve are chosen from a considerable gallery (see book’s Appendix) and even that list is not exhaustive. A summary of some of the better known archetypes might include: Addict, Advocate, Alchemist, Angel, Artist, Athlete, Avenger, Beggar, Bully, Child, Child: Orphan, Child: Wounded, Child: Magical / Innocent, Child: Nature, Child: Puer / Puella Eternis, Child: Divine, Clown, Companion, Damsel, Destroyer, Detective, Don Juan, Engineer, Exorcist, Father, Femme Fatale, Gambler, God, Goddess, Venus / Aphrodite, Diana / Artemis, Ceres / Demeter, Juno / Hera, Proserpina / Persephone, Sophia, Gossip, Guide, Healer, Wounded Healer, Hedonist, Hero / Heroine, Judge, King, Knight, Liberator, Lover, Martyr, Mediator, Mentor, Messiah, Midas / Miser, Monk / Nun, Mother, Mystic, Networker, Pioneer, Poet, Priest / Priestess, Prince, Prostitute, Queen, Rebel, Rescuer, Saboteur, Samaritan, Scribe, Seeker, Servant, Shape-shifter, Slave, Storyteller, Student, Teacher, Thief, Trickster, Vampire, Victim, Virgin, Visionary, Warrior Working with archetypes involves seeing life in symbols at the centre of a broad universal picture. The energies of these archetypes can help us understand ourselves and can lead us to a profound understanding of our purpose and bring our Sacred Contract into our conscious awareness. Another writer, Carol Pearson, in her book Awakening the Heroes Within, looked at twelve key archetypes that most people experience in their lives. She groups the twelve into three sets of four each. The Ego (the conscious) archetypes relate to the preparation for the journey and include: Innocent, Orphan, Warrior and Caregiver. The Soul (the unconscious) archetypes relate to the journey itself and include: Seeker, Lover, Destroyer, and Creator. The Self (individuation) archetypes relate to the return from the journey and include: Ruler, Magician, Sage and Fool. Pearson’s is probably the best known list of twelve archetypes. However, for the purpose of this short manual, it is necessary to concentrate on the twelve identified by Dr Joshua David Stone which are similar to, but not identical to, Pearson’s. The list is reproduced in Appendix 1 below. Stone quotes Marcia Dale Lopez, a spiritual teacher living in New York, defining archetypes in a very clear and concise manner.
"Archetypes are underlying mythic themes that can be found in all races and cultures at all times. The archetypes are ageless roles or key stereotypes that portray different forms of behaviour. In other words, the archetypes are universal role models or personifications of perennial themes. They can be identified as the main characters found in legends, fairy tales, Shakespearean dramas, and Bible stories." In Stone’s opinion, the purpose of these archetypes, as of any roles, is to play them if it is appropriate to one's life and spiritual path and, most of all, to play them consciously. The danger comes when these universal roles and archetypes play the individual instead of the individual playing them. Stone also warns against the danger of living out one particular archetype that might make one psychologically imbalanced. There can even be a type of glamour of the opposites. For example, a person may live out the martyr archetype. However, one of his spiritual lessons might be also to learn to be spiritually more self centred. The wise one archetype may need to learn to be the fool in order to find balance. Many people find themselves identifying with a large number of these archetypal roles and patterns. There is no right or wrong. In Stone’s view, there is only what is appropriate for one's spiritual path and mission in this lifetime and the issue of being whole and balanced in life. Within the framework of the bigger picture, it is essential to master and integrate all twelve of the basic archetypes. In a similar sense, the individual has the opportunity to master all Twelve Signs of the Zodiac and the Ten Sephiroth on the Tree of Life. This does not imply that this is the work of a single lifetime. It is a good idea to allow ourselves to role-play these different archetypes during this life so as to gain a greatest sense of wholeness. According to Stone, many of these archetypes have been lived out in past lives and so do not have to be lived out in this life. It is important to let the guidance of the individual soul lead to the appropriate application of these universal states. Thinking and meditating upon these twelve archetypes can be a considerable factor in personal growth and self-understanding.
Suggested Exercise Look at each archetype in turn, perhaps allowing at least one day between each. Ideally keep a reflective journal, possibly based on the following questions, which can be refined to suit the individual: • • • • • • • •
Is this me? If it is me, is it helping me? If it is not helping me, what could I do about it? If it is me, have I chosen it or have others put it on me? If it is not me, would I like it to be? How would adopting this archetype help me? Even if I find it unattractive, could it help my personal growth? Have others stopped me from adopting this archetype?

Appendix 2 - Dr. Joshua David Stone & the I AM University
The well known author of many books of spiritual nature Dr Joshua David Stone had a Ph.D. in Transpersonal Psychology and was a Licensed Marriage, Family and Child Counselor in California. In November 2004 Dr Stone officially launched the "I AM University", which is an actual university that Dr Stone runs on the inner plane and has been guided by Spirit and the Ascended Masters to anchor and externalize on Earth. The "I AM University" is the fast path to becoming a fully realized "Integrated Ascended Master" on Earth in this lifetime! In 2005 Dr Stone passed on to the Spirit world where he continues to run the inner plane I AM University and Spiritually supports the continued expansion of his work through the platform and vehicle of the earthly/outer plane I AM University! He is now in training with Lord Maitreya and the Spiritual Hierarchy in preparation of serving as the future head of the Spiritual Hierarchy for Planet Earth when his training to do so is complete. Dr Stone will still be the leader of the I AM University on the spiritual plane, and on the earthly plane his job is taken over by his helper Rev. Gloria Excelsias. Gloria Excelsias is a Minister, Spiritual Teacher, Healer and Author, who served as long-term personal assistant to Dr Joshua David Stone. When Dr Stone passed on to the Spirit world, he made Gloria Excelsias the new President and Director of the Earthly plane I AM University which she now runs in co-creation with and being overlighted by Spirit, the Ascended Masters, Archangels and Angels, Elohim and Dr Stone! As part of this whole transition and process, Gloria has been guided by Spirit, the Masters and Joshua to relocate the I AM University to Salzburg - the Heart of Europe! Having been born in Austria, this location has crystallized itself as the perfect place on Planet Earth to serve as new home for the I AM University Headquarters that allows Gloria best to run and expand the I AM University according to Spirit and the Masters’ Plan.
