The Archetypes are
the "original governing images" (literal meaning of the word
archaetypos) of the universe. They are creation's templates
for artistic creation. Each of these twelve archetypes can be
expressed in many different ways, however, the "ways" can be
categorized in these twelve groups that astrology honors and works
with. For instance, the Aquarius archetype can be expressed as
the Humanitarian, the Scientist, the Sage, the Cosmic Genius, the
Inventor, the Freedom-Fighter, the Reformer, the Revolutionary, the
list goes on, but all of these expressions of the archetype are
related to the family of archetypes that astrologer's call Aquarius.
