The Shadow Work model has made a kind of quantum leap in the last few years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
We have broken each archetype down into three subdivisions, so that we can now see shadows in \u201ctwelves\u201d instead of just seeing in \u201cfours.\u201d<\/p>\n
This means that you can learn to identify 12 distinct shadows and see through the lens of \u201ctwelves.\u201d This puts a finer point on your perception of the four archetypes. You will go from seeing in \u201cfours\u201d to seeing in \u201ctwelves.\u201d<\/p>\n
These 12 shadows don\u2019t contradict the idea of there being four main shadows in the four directions. It just refines your definition of those shadows. You might say that Shadow Work has gone \u201cHi Def.\u201d The new model offers better resolution, so that you can see finer details. It makes for all-around better viewing. The idea is to deepen your ability to perceive shadows, and to teach you how to use what we call the \u201cPathways\u201d for each type of shadow.<\/p>\n

This could be a man who wants to change the world, or it could be a woman, whose mission is more about changing or helping her family members. But suppose this person says something like this: \u201cI know what my mission is. The problem is that I\u2019m just not following through with it. I\u2019m not really DOING IT.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Now, by seeing in \u201cfours\u201d we can tell that this person is talking about some connection between the Sovereign and the Warrior. MISSION is about Sovereign energy, right? And DOING IT is about the Warrior.<\/p>\n So you could say that this person probably has a shadow in the Warrior quarter and needs some Warrior work to bring up the kind of energy that can follow through.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Seeing in twelves, however, will give us better resolution on the problem, so let\u2019s delve into some detail in this one example.<\/p>\n We have divided Sovereign energy into three sub-categories, or traits, called Idealizing, Affecting and Fostering. Idealizing is about dreaming up things to do. Affecting is about \u201cfaking it \u2019til you make it.\u201d And Fostering is about nurturing others, or nurturing your inner child, or nurturing the parts of you that could carry out your plans.<\/p>\n Idealizing, Affecting and Fostering are three very different aspects of Sovereign energy. We have also divided each of the other Archetypal energies into three sub-categories, or traits. Thus forming the twelve Shadow Types.<\/p>\nSEEING IN FOURS<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
