WHO IS THIS ARCHETYPE?

In the Enthusiast, we find excitement, youthfulness, and creativity embodied. This archetype develops skills gradually through expression and experimentation.

Versatile and spontaneous, she lives by the mantra “just do it and figure out the details later.” The Enthusiast is empowered by her courage to give herself fully to anything she identifies with. She learns holographically, using her heart, body and mind together. She combines the focus of the yang and the receptivity of the yin.

She is multi-faceted and can transfer her talents across a number of fields.

True versatility and flow occur when The Enthusiast transcends technique, entering the doorway to mastery. She is the dancer who becomes the dance and the songwriter who becomes the melody. The word enthusiasm derives from the Latin and Greek meaning to be possessed by the breath of God.

The Enthusiast is looking for depth from the very feminine Librarian (48), who provides intuitive wisdom and the foundation to which her skills can be applied. She also has a close relationship to the more energetic and masculine Mountaineer (9), who is attentive to details and achieves his goals through determination and a step by step process.

The Enthusiast is logical and naturally chooses endeavors that assure a successful future. She easily discerns the true potential in projects, pursuits, and people. She can see the way ahead and attract people to make the vision manifest.

Together with Goodwill (45), the leader of the community, the Enthusiast creates a geometry for a prosperity that serves everyone. They both know that true and long lasting prosperity and purpose are brought about by people following their genius while working together collectively.
