Which Husky Are You? 🐕

The Michael Archetype System Reveals

"You want to make sure everyone is okay. You are extremely attentive to the needs of others, typically hypersensitive. You can be a natural empath, meaning you pick up on other people’s and place’s energies. You're a model for caregiving or offering support to others, because it comes from your true nature.

You are here to make the world a better place. You may be a healer, doctor, nurse, a life coach, therapist, teacher, mom, in human resources, social worker, etc. Sometimes you don’t even work in a field where you are serving but that’s just your natural tendency.

You feel a lot and that’s what makes you so beautiful. The pain of the world is your pain too and as such you were brought on this planet to alleviate suffering. Your role is SO CRUCIAL. Without servers, the human race would not look out for each other nearly as much as they should. Servers were born with a natural propensity to help because that is what the world needs. You are truly personal service providers for just what is needed, and you know when you feel called to share.

However, you often over-give, leaving you depleted. You want to make sure everyone around you is good but don’t look out for yourself. Your own self-care practices often take the back burner. Because you are constantly giving, you may reach a phase of burn out. You may even experience resentment if you feel like you’re being taken for granted.

Since you tend to put the needs of others before your own, when others do not do the same (especially Kings/Queens, which are naturally drawn to server’s caring energy) you could end up extremely hurt or disappointed. An under appreciated or shut-down server may appear to have a critical or negative attitude, but when they learn that it's safe and healthy to appreciate themselves, and to be in service the way they are naturally motivated (at the personal level) the world brightens too.

Your FOCUS is to work on filling your own cup. If your cup is empty, you cannot give freely to others. You’re running in overdrive. Practice giving to yourself first, and learn to receive. Keep up the great work, and the world is grateful as you continue to demonstrate your natural caring."

As you've noticed, you can have more than one Archetype with which you feel aligned. Typically, you may feel a primary or 'soul urge', with a secondary or 'personality expression'. Ultimately, we naturally express a unique balance of all the archetypes within us, and will find ourselves called to various ones at different times along our path. So keep exploring who you are, and allow for when others choose to begin growing into their balancing traits."

"You are here to disrupt, create, and build or walk a new way. You are the creators of the future, forging a new reality with your uniqueness, perception, and thought. You bring a different touch, and feel compelled to do things your own way, following a sense of inner freedom. You are sensitive to color, light, sound, texture, and environment, and prefer to work alone or one-on-one.

If you're exploring your more structured side, you might be drawn to paths like engineering, architecture, mechanics, repairs, plumbing, landscaping, construction, etc. You are a natural creator who seeks to build new order, structure, and discipline from the chaos. Artisans look at raw materials and begin thinking of ways they can create something useful with it. You were brought here to make the world a more efficient place.

For those of you exploring your flow-state, you may be drawn towards more creative endeavors—writing, painting, jewelry-making, essential-oils, fashion, poetry, etc. You see the world nonlinearly and depolarized, which is to say full of possibility, synergy and fluidity. For you, the material world is to be reshaped and fashioned into something new. You see raw materials and begin thinking of ways you can create it into a work of beauty. You were brought here to make the world a more beautiful place.

Artisans do best when they are left alone to do their work. They don’t like to be bothered and carry the weight of the world on their shoulders. Artisans prefer to be in their own element. They are actually deeply helping the world by focusing on their task because that’s what the world needs. If everyone was running around taking care of others like servers, we wouldn’t have anyone to create and build. The best service artisans can do is to focus on their task and share it with the world.

Artisans may not make the best managers and some can find them aloof. They don’t often have the patience or desire to manage others and prefer to move to the beat of their own drum or keep to themselves. Artisans are naturally more introverted and become overwhelmed in high pressure situations. They do well working in small group-settings or on their own."

"The warriors are the protectors of society. They are not here to fight (though they are good at that) but rather to protect. Since there is no real place for “warriors” in our society (you could say the army but the modern day “army” is far from the roles warrior used to play), they often don’t know what to do with all this energy. They are extremely achievement and accomplishment-oriented. They want to be the best at what they do and are naturally competitive in nature. Warriors are often businesspeople, athletes, managers, salespeople, policemen or soldiers.

Warriors are driven by reward and punishment. If they know they’ll win money, fame or prestige, they’ll chase it. If there is a punishment for eating that cookie, they won’t do it. They do well with restrictions- in fact, they love it. They want rules and regulations because that’s how they operate best. In fact, they become stressed out with the loosey-gooseyness of the artisans or the neutral logic of the servers. They believe what’s right is right and what’s wrong is wrong. There is no grey. This sets them up for a lot of challenge because the world doesn’t operate this way- in fact, it’s a whole spectrum of color. They’re trying to figure out what’s the “right” thing to do when forthat thing doesn’t even exist.

Warriors may be athletic by nature, in which case they need a good sweat in order to feel right. This type can be super Pitta and drawn towards boxing, HIIT, weight-training and other intense forms of exercise. Their bodies were designed to fight in battle and yearn for that adrenal release. They naturally have muscular bodies and tend not to get injured performing these activities—unless of course, they overpush themselves, which they often do. However, what they can really benefit from is a balance of their feminine energy, for example some yin yoga—a calm, restorative practice to soothe the overworked adrenals and stretch out the overworked muscles. Meditation is also crucial for warriors, otherwise they can end up in a war in their heads. It’s important for them to take cleansing breathes to release stored tension.

Warriors are innately agentic (aka yang/masculine). Women who were born with the warrior archetype may often have struggles with their passive nature (aka yin/feminine). It may feel like they were born into the body of a member of the opposite sex, or may just be more comfortable being in their masculine. If you are a warrior female, channel that energy into something positive. Fight for a cause, rather than a championship. Use that energy for creative channeling. Warriors play a pivotal role in society- they carry the strength we need to transform the world into a positive place. They just need to make sure they’re expending their energy in a way that’s meaningful."

"Scholars see the world as an experiment. They are on the constant journey of learning, dissecting, analyzing. Knowledge is the food that feeds them and they were put on this planet to seek information and explore new permutations. Authors, researchers, scientists and professors are all roles that scholars take on. They have a unique talent to sift through and retain information. For example, my [author's] father is a text-book scholar and reads at least one book, start to finish, a week. He’s 64-years-old so you can only imagine how many books he’s read.

The difference between scholars and Priests/Priestesses is that scholars seek to gain knowledge for the purpose of knowing. Priests/priestesses seek to gain knowledge to inspire others.

Scholars often struggle with work-life balance. They are so immersed in their work that they forget about other needs -- like relationships, exercise, hobbies, etc. Their work becomes their LIFE’s focus and it’s hard for them to keep anything else in mind.

They can also tend to be or feel isolationist. Books are their BFF’s. They have a hard-time dealing with small-talk and pointless endeavors that aren’t teaching them valuable knowledge. Sometimes they may have a hard-time seeing that everyone is our teacher—even that person who may seem to have “nothing to offer.” In fact, it’s those people who teach us the most. Why not choose to 'research' how?

Scholars must connect back with their bodies. Their energy is very up in their heads and they sometimes lose rooting with their lower chakras- root, sacral and solar plexus. Here are some key practices to help them rebalance:

Root Chakra: They can practice grounding activities such as walking barefoot on the earth, outdoor activities, exercise, even shamanic shaking, to connect back with Earth and their root chakra embodied safety.

Sacral Chakra: They can also practice embodiment exercises such as dancing or Tantra to connect with their sensuality and sacral chakras vivacity.

Solar Plexus Chakra: They can focus on deep belly breathing and the affirmation “I am” to connect with their personal power and solar plexus chakra or personal creative will.

"Sages are the expressionists and entertainers of the universe. You know that friend that you can be sitting in the car with during a long road trip and they’re cracking out jokes and stories? That’s the sage. I [author] have an aunt who is a total sage and at the end of every diner it’s just expected that she’s going to dish out hilarious stories that will have everyone on their knees in hysterics. Sages love to entertain. That is how they serve their highest purpose. They can take a dark situation and bring in light. They cheer everyone up just with their playful energy. Their gifts lie in their story-telling, which makes the mundane journey of life into a riveting experience.

Whether their 'stage' is the group they lead, or a more visible social platform, Sages seem to find their way in the entertainment industry because they feel at home with an audience. Whether it’s acting, singing, comedy, broadcasting or just posting Youtube videos, they do best when they’re expressing for the group, or in the public eye. Sages often times end up in different work situations but should always have that outlet where they can entertain in order to become whole.

A famous sage I refer to in the podcast is Tina Fey. She is absolutely hilarious and shares cultural messages without you even realizing it. For example, her movie Mean Girls hit SO many nails on the head about the way high school cliques are.. but you’re laughing along the way and don’t see it like a documentary (which is how a scholar would present it). She makes tons of political statements in SNL but it’s all in the name of humor. This is a classic sage characteristic—saying their point in a way that you aren’t even sure if they really said it.

The flip side with sages is they can become passive aggressive. Sometimes they feel like the need to impress everyone else that they aren’t true to who they are. When life is a stage, it’s hard to take your mask off. They sometimes forget who they truly are underneath the persona.

If you are a sage, focus on your own truth. Live your life for yourself- not for the attention of others. You will feel much more fulfilled if what you create comes from your heart, regardless of how 'popular/unpopular' it may be. You have a lot of wisdom- don’t feel like you need to dumb yourself down in order to match society’s needs."

"Priestesses/Priests are the inspiration type. You are here on this planet to Inspire, Awaken, and Grow. The caring and enthusiastic inspiration of the Priest lovingly challenges us to seek fulfillment and evolution in our lives. Priests have an uncanny way of making us unafraid of the things that scare us, and they help us face our fears with optimism and greater resolve.

You can see the light in their eyes -- the compassion and possibility. They truly care. They are natural healers and have a special gift for channeling universal energy. They are warm, passionate, caring and enthusiastic. Their natural tendency is to reach out, to encourage people to live the life of their dreams and embrace life to the fullest.

Priests are on a mission to make the world a better place—even if sometimes it means putting their own self-care on the back burner.

A famous priest is Barack Obama- a great speaker, charismatic with healing words and utopian visions. Now whether you agree with his politics or not, you have to admit the change he stood for, and his energy was very priestly. His eyes and smile are bright and luminous and even when he speaks from a fiery place, you know it's out of love.

Priests and Servers both seek to help others, but for priests the calling is to express on a group or large scale and servers more on an individual scale. Priests do well with public speaking, politics and group settings. Servers do well with one-on-one connection, listening, care-giving. Both play very important roles and should be honored. Many priests, like myself [author], have server as a secondary role and love working with people individually but know their highest service is at a large scale. They were born with those capabilities and it would be a waste of their talent to not share.

Priests have a strong sense of morality and sometimes that can drive them crazy. This is a burden priests/priestesses sometimes carry- they need to share the possible solution they see for everything and won’t feel rested until they feel others have heard or seen the opportunity for themselves.

On the flip side, some people see priests as overly righteous. They find it annoying that priests are always trying to inspire and honestly find it preachy. Not everyone wants to be told that they aren’t living to their highest potentials and what they could be doing differently. In fact, it triggers a lot of old wounds in people that they don’t want to face.

Some people would rather live in a comfortable lie than a painful truth. This is a lesson that is very difficult for priests to understand. They just automatically think people want to know how they can be more conscious and healthy.

Priests often get the heat as they are the ones creating the paradigm shift. Likewise, they can receive animosity simply because of their over zealousness to help. Just know that by drawing attention to what is not conscious, you are rewriting the old story and bringing the darkness into light. Priests are continuously learning when and how to share their insights in a way others invite or can hear, and when to let it be. Everyone is on their own journey and you can’t catapult people to be beyond where they're at, no matter how inspirational your vision is. Finding the balance is key."

Togo was primarily a grounded, highly intelligent, and determined lead dog in the 1925 Alaskan serum run to deliver life-saving diphtheria antitoxin 674 miles to Nome. He became renowned for immense stamina and loyalty, covering 75 miles in one day, though his early life was marked by mischievous, "creative" disobedience. He was considered by musher Leonhard Seppala to be the best dog he ever had. Togo was the epitome of a rugged, resilient Alaskan sled dog who matured from a disruptive, clever puppy into a focused leader.

"This archetype is a natural born leader. They take command in situations and people naturally tend to listen to listen to what they have to say. They are strong managers and have a unique ability to find the strength in others. Like warriors, they are both driven by control, mastery and perfectionism. They make strong entrepreneurs, politicians, CEOs, police chiefs, religious leaders, pilots, managers and any other position where they are in control. Whatever industry they are in, they will rise to the top.

Kings/Queens are less in their physical bodies than warriors and more in their heads. They are extremely tenacious and committed to their work. Like triests, people come to them for advice but kings are less concerned with inspiration and more concerned with leadership. People are often inspired by how hard-working they are but they aren’t really put on this planet to give motivational speeches. They’re here to lead.

Kings/Queens like to call the shots. While managing others may overwhelm the more empathetic priests and servers, kings thrive doing it. That’s how they create an enterprise. They are very decisive and can remove the emotion from the equation to get things done. Their liking includes being busy at all times and having a hard time resting or letting go of control. They often do not trust others with their tasks and will run in over-drive to get things done their way. They’re always “on duty” and have a hard time with work-life balance.

In some instances, the expression of a king or queen may appear tyrannical, ruthless or authoritarian, though that would be a personal expression or imbalance of the universal archetype of leadership. Other kings (who may have server as a secondary role) are genuinely impassioned by helping others- they just do it on a larger and less direct scale. Kings can sometimes be bossy and headstrong because they know their way is right and do not want to ask for help. They have a hard-time admitting their own faults, even when it is out-right in their faces.

Kings must let go of the need to always be the first or the best. Life is not a race and you aren’t being graded. This constant pressure they put on themselves makes them angry and resentful, which keeps them from living up to their highest self. Kings carry a lot of Pitta fire energy, which can make them irritable and snap.

Kings must focus on keeping it cool and allowing more flow into their lives. When they begin to breathe and allow in greater balance to their go getter natures, this rebalances their energy and opens the door for greater spontaneous fulfillment from the universe. This softening may mean that they achieve greater levels of success with less resistance. They must accept that the world will work out in their favor when they let go of their constant need for control.
