Archetypes and Sacred Soul Contracts - Caroline Myss

“A Sacred Contract refers to the assignments given specifically to you prior to your birth. These assignments are known to your psyche and soul through the language of archetypes. From your earliest childhood years, your archetypal patterns begin to emerge into your personality, forming a lens through which you relate to the world around you. Some of you saw the world through the lens of the little Princess or the young Warrior or the Detective or the Artist.
Archetypes are the engines of our imagination and we rely upon our personal archetypes to launch us through our imagination into what we hope to have and experience as adults. Each archetype you have relates to a different aspect of who you are.

The Greatest Habits of Your Heart - a message from Caroline Myss Friday, 31 May, 2013

Theological discussions often take shape around exploring the difference between an ordinary understanding of a single word and imagining how that same word would be interpreted by the soul. For example, the word, habitus, is Latin for habits of behavior and routines. All individuals have a host of certain habits that bring order to their physical life. I have a cup of coffee in the morning and watch the news, for example. And then I check my email. There was a time when I just had coffee and watched the news - that was pre-email. Email is the new addition to my decades old routine. Then I hit the shower and then the office. And so the day goes.
