Fascinating responses to the Archetype questions. It has occurred to me, though I have hardly settled on this theory, that such things as Astrology and Tarot bear the same relationship to Primal Archetyping that man made imitations of Prime Object bear to their original counterparts. For instance, suppose that the original resonators on earth appeared like obelisks, man then made obelisks first to re-capture the power of them and the originals and then forgot the early impulse and considered them interesting decoration. And I would not rule out a the possibility that we have dominant and subdominant archetypes. So we all might possess different degrees or archetypes, and they might shift. This is only speculation, but I am interested in your thoughts.

While I admit it might sound superfluous, I was fascinated by the results of the Archetype poll. I do not know what category I am. I am fascinated by what Archetypes Essex members consider themselves to be in. I suspect I know the answer, but I have found that inquiry is good. Do not answer if you prefer to keep it private.

I have been queried as to the powers of a MAGNUS. Curiously, there is little in the known literature about the powers of a Magnus. I have extracted that, for instance, the Vesuvian Magnus was able to create the Aegis Nova and quite possibly a Tecthulhu. But what are the powers and purposes of a Magnus. Calvin's Magnus created the Scanner and Epiphany night resulting in the dispersal of XM, so Magnus' might well serve as Liminal groups to move mankind from one era to another. What else do we know?

Excellent work. We should explore this along with the implication of sub-dominant traits that some Essexians have suggested. Secondary Archetypes we all might possess. Originally shared by Ariel Diana (Arielsmurfeater) I did some research into the traits of the different MAGNUS archetypes asked in H. Richard Loeb's post and thought I'd post a summer of each from what I've learned. Alchemist The Alchemist is a person who is able to create things or transforms an items or situation, in a mysterious or impressive way that can seem like magic to others. The alchemist, no matter what you call it (Magician, Wizard, Scientist, Inventor etc.) has a common trait that allows them to convert some form of matter into some form of an altered expression of itself. Some are able to get results that are outside the “normal”, others are associated with having supernatural powers, transmuting base metals into gold, even spiritual transformation. Seduction and trickery to play upon the desi

Quick inject: I believe that it is a good time for us to begin contemplating our personal archetypes. I have asked Chapeau to poll agents on this subject, but it is an issue we should give extended thought to inside Essex for, I believe that our abilities will be in great demand shortly. More later.
