Hey friends. I've been studying the archetypes consciously and unconsciously for a while now, in the hopes to understand this enigma in a better way so that I can then teach what I've learned. It's been an enjoyable process, and in the near future I hope to start my own written interpretations of the archetypes to share with everyone. I have a few more months worth of study laid out before myself before I plan on being ready to do that, but this is me stating my intentions and helping stir up some of the energy in this forum.
My husband doesn't read any spiritual texts or anything like that, but he's totally open to mostly everything I offer him as an idea, even if it's wacko. I even like testing out metaphysical stuff with him specifically because he's always had a pretty open indigo ray but has no attachment to any outcome or the likes as far as spiritual progress goes. He loves writing fiction (and communicating) and writes almost every day, and gets frustrated with himself on days when he doesn't.
Somehow the idea came into my mind to briefly explain the Two Paths card, where Ra says one can see the unconscious resources as a maiden to be courted or a prostitute to be plundered. He understood what I meant immediately, and went wide eyed. I said yeah, it's most common that people do both, and he said "No, I mostly tell my creative spark to bend over and give it to me."
Hahaha. It was interesting see him realize that there was another way. Another analogy he gave was that he often saw it as a vault that he had to break into. He really enjoyed and is currently entertaining the idea of courting the maiden. The main thing I see within him more is patience, a greater patience for his perceived "output". I think this is also an extremely helpful "program" for him to have, for me to help trigger, when he gets himself riled up, and anxious with writer's block and whatnot. Your maiden is merely exerting her right to be finicky, you must offer her the patience she is trying to teach you in return. Then she will reward you.
Anyway. I thought it was a good sign that I was able to "teach" this concept to someone and watch them immediately apply it. I still want to finish my current read-through of the LOO (currently on session 86), and probably re-read all the writings that others teachers have offered on this subject, before I put my thoughts through their final processing to regurgitate them here for you.
