The Saboteur Archetype

by @candesscampbell

There is a situation in my life that may be an opportunity manifested. When manifesting though, as soon as you identify what you want or see the manifestation ahead, doubt sets in and you begin to undo that which you have been working on creating! This is what is happening for me, so I decided to revisit The Saboteur Archetype and explore what is happening at a deeper level.

I took a class from Caroline many years ago on Sacred Contracts and then taught from her book of the same name. From the information I gained from her and some of my own experiences, I came up with a list of characteristics of these archetypes. Myss explains how each of these four archetypes are like legs of a table in which we build our life. Here is some information about the Saboteur Archetype which Myss refers to as the Guardian of Choice.

If you journal, this will give you a great opportunity to explore your inner life journaling from these characteristics. You may want to use my book Live Intuitively: Journal the Wisdom of your Soul when you explore deeper. You can use the Soul Stems, which are writing prompts to take you deeper into your Self!

Core issue of Saboteur is fear of inviting changes into your life; changes that shape and deepen your spirit

  • Other side of destruction is rebuilding and rebirth
  • Use saboteur to consciously dismantle areas of your life you need to fix or heal
  • Makes itself known through disruption and resistance
  • Is the mirror that reflects your fears of taking responsibility for yourself and what you create
  • You can silence the saboteur with acts of courage and following your intuition
  • Listen to the small voice and make choices – small ones to begin with
  • Shadow saboteur will play on your fears that you are not good enough to accomplish anything on your own
  • We are afraid that if we are enlightened we will be alone, wont’ be vulnerable, capable of sensual love, so we feed the shadow saboteur, the part of use that is fragmented
  • We fear empowerment because we think it will remove us from the warmth and comfort of loved ones
  • We fear empowerment because we don’t want to be responsible for our actions and therefore consciously or unconsciously encourage our weakness and hold onto our fears; we do want to be around others that are empowered or enlightened though
  • Do you sabotage your personal growth for a little comfort or does your inner saboteur alert you to stay on the Yellow Brick Road
  • Work with your saboteur to see where you may be doing yourself in (what are you doing you know you should not be doing and what you are not doing that you know you should be doing?
  • Have you blown an opportunity to follow a dream?
  • Saboteur is made up of the fears and issues related to low self esteem that cause you to make choices in your life that block your own empowerment and success
  • When you make the saboteur your ally it can call your attention to ways you might be sabotaged or sabotage yourself and then you can make other choices The intellect of the scarecrow can work with your saboteur to alert you to when you are doing yourself in
 Here is the Soul Stem Process and a few Soul Stems to work with.
 
What scares me the most about (the manifestation) is . . .
 
If I walk away from this opportunity then . . .
 
The opportunity I regret not taking is . . .
 
When I say YES to this experience, I will  . . .
 
Enjoy the process of deepening your relationship with yourSelf!
 
I am available for a psychic readings if you want some clarity and energy clearing.
 
 
 
 
 

Connecting with Loved Ones who Passed

by @candesscampbell

On this Memorial Day as I spend time with my family and reminisce about my mother and father who have passed over, I also remember the first time I connected with my mom on the other side. I was riding my recumbent bike and thinking about my granddaughter, Rachel who was just learning to walk. (She’s now 17!) I wished my mom were still alive and could see the baby who I adored so much. All of the sudden I heard my mom’s voice. She said, “honey I see her every day. I am there with you.” It was amazing. At first I was alarmed and then curious and then understood that in addition to being psychic, I could also connect with my mom on the other side.

After this experience when I was doing readings with clients, their loved ones began to show up. What a heartfelt experience to be able to be the bridge between clients and those they lost.

IMG_0862The most amazing experience though came when I decided to do a workshop at a local library. I knew I could do public psychic readings, but didn’t know if I could use my medium abilities in a group. I had over 100 people show up and I was a little nervous. I let the group know I was testing myself in this area. I asked if there was someone who had a loved one who passed and wanted to connect. Several people raised their hands, but one stood out to me. She was a woman who looked to be in her late 50s. I asked who it was that passed. She said it was her son. I went in and connected with him. He was telling me, “no, it wasn’t like that!” I asked her how they said he died. She said they said it was suicide. I could feel his frustration and see her despair. I went on to communicate with him and he told me how he died. As I told her, her face went from pain and despair to peace. I immediately knew that as a mental health counselor, it could take years of therapy for this woman to come to the place that took minutes with a psychic medium. I understood how important it was for me to continue to use this ability for healing.

You may be able to connect with your loved one on your own. On my website I have a PDF, 4 Ways to Develop your Clairvoyance. You will learn how to recognize your Clairaudience, Clairsentience, Claircognizance and Clairvoyance. My heart goes out to you and your loved ones.

Mothers are a Mixed Bag

by @candesscampbell

Spring came early this year in Spokane. It is usually around Mother’s Day that I buy the plants for my pots.

As a therapist I am too aware that Mother’s Day is a mixed bag for many. Some of us did not have great relationships with our mothers for whatever reason. As a psychic and medium, I have been able to help others reconnect with their mother after she passed and either communicate with her or understand why she did things the way that she did. I am so aware of how quickly we can loose people in our lives. My mother died expectantly at age 52. I wish I could have gotten over my “attitude” about what I didn’t get or how it should have been before she died.

In the mid 1990’s I did some deep inner work and re-mothered my inner child. Since then I have been helping clients re-mother themselves. I developed a process that I call What’s Wrong Little Girl. This of course could be changed for your inner male child. The process is below.

I wish I had accepted my mother just as she was. We all develop ways of protecting ourselves as we become shaped by our environment. Whether you become a victim, an avenger, withdrawn, or chaotic; we all do the best we can do at the time. It is as adults we have the opportunity to heal the past and be the best we can be in the here and now!

As you heal your own inner child and then re-integrate her back into your adult-Self, you are able to accept and love others, just as they are.

Enjoy the process and feel free to comment on your progress!

 

Journaling with your Inner Child

Write down

     1. What’s Wrong Little Girl?

State the situation – Person said this, did this, etc. Respond to her by identifying her feelings.

     2. I hear you were afraid, oh, you sound so sad, etc.

She responds with more information because she was heard.

     3. Write more of what she has to say.

Ask her what she needs and listen!

     4. She may need to go for a walk, to listen to music, take a bath, have a healthy snack.

Give her what she needs and promise her you will take care of her and DO IT!

She will learn to trust you again and soon she will integrate back into your adult Self and all will be so much better!

Psychic Mini Readings on A Magickal Journey with Bryan Rawls

by @candesscampbell

It’s always fun to do readings with people who have never experienced one before. Sometimes people are skeptical or unsure whether they want to be read or not. Today I am adding a recording of the show I was on with Bryan Rawls where we both did mini-readings with the call in guests. This will give you a sample of what it is like to get a reading. When you order an individual reading, if you have questions ready I can go deeper and give you a lot more information! Enjoy!

This show is from January 2016.

Lover Archetype

by @candesscampbell

The creativity of your subconscious mind not only shows up in dreams, but also shows up as archetypes in your life.  Archetypes are overlying patterns that show up in all cultures that are seeded in the psyche. Some examples of archetypes are mother, judge, teacher and healer. Today we will explore the Lover. When you begin to look at these patterns in your life, you can unleash your creative energy. You can access your natural path and move toward your Divine Soul purpose.

Leonard Cohen’s song Lover, Lover, Lover, rings in my ears as I explore the Lover Archetype in this series on archetypes.

“May the spirit of this song, may it rise up pure and free. May it be a shield for you, a shield against the enemy,” Cohen purrs. Love, being in love, being a lover brings forth not only the purity, freedom, passion, but also the enemy within: the jealousy, possessiveness, control and codependency. These are the sun and the shadow sides of the Lover archetype.

We all have an aspect of the lover archetype within, but I imagine when you think of your friends and loved ones, someone who embodies this archetype comes to mind. Whether they are passionate about life, about their relationships, or have a great passion for music, art or gardening, you can identify them right away.

If your creative energy is connected to the Lover archetype, you may find that you sacrifice much for your ideals. It may be that others think you don’t live in reality, or that your view of the world through the lens of your heart is not realistic. The lover may characterize you as genuine, happy and giving to others. The shadow side could manifest as obsessive, possessive and scary.

There is also something about the Lover archetype that draws us deep into a sense of suffering. Think about the suffering artist, the struggling musician, and the one who gave up everything for love.

As morose as it may seem, my favorite song, another of Cohen’s greats, is Joan of Arc. Cohen is a contemporary musician who clearly understands passion.

It was deep into his fiery heart
he took the dust of Joan of Arc,
and then she clearly understood
if he was fire, oh then she must be wood.
I saw her wince, I saw her cry,
I saw the glory in her eye.
Myself I long for love and light,
but must it come so cruel, and oh so bright?

It was Carl Gustav Jung, who was the father of analytical psychology who gave us the concepts of the archetypes, as well as the collective unconscious and the understanding of introversion and extroversion. He identified the shadow side of the archetype as the part that was relegated to the subconscious because, due to its negative qualities, it was not easily integrated into the personality. In psychoanalytic therapy and in dream work, it is important to access the shadow and bring it into the light so that it does not gain power and cause you to subconsciously behave in ways that can be self-defeating or damaging to others.

We know of many instances where the shadow side of love has been destructive. One example would be of Guinevere and Lancelot. Guinevere was married to King Arthur and had an affair with Sir Lancelot. Lancelot was a knight, one of King Arthur’s favorites. This indiscretion leads to the undoing of the Round Table.

What about one’s love for their country? This can also be an outpour of the Lover Archetype. With this strong passion, one can get caught up in an uprising that can end up in disaster or war. The obsessiveness of the shadow side of love can be all encompassing.

Some of our greatest discoveries have come from those who gave their lives to find a cure, understand a formula, and take a passionate stand. In today’s world, workaholism can show up as an expression of the lover archetype. Creativity abounds when you love what you do! The shadow side of this may be neglected relationships or declining health.

It is time to examine your own life and find what stokes your fire. For whom or what would you be willing to give up everything? Whether you actually do it or not, what do you love to do the most? When you look back over your life, where has passion been the driving force behind your choices? Who makes you angry? What would you fight for? Where do you find your bliss?

The Lover may or may not be a significant archetypal pattern for you. As you reflect, take notes on other archetypes you identify. Think about how others see you. Is your career representative of one of your archetypes? For example a strong archetype for me is the Teacher. Interwoven in my life and career is being a Spiritual Teacher. It comes natural to me. What would you do with your time if you had unlimited resources and freedom. What is your natural path? What is your Divine Soul Purpose?
