Goals

Humans want to see and hear stories that mirror ourselves back to us. There is a huge value in identifying what exact story is being lulled to us by our collective unconscious while we go through motions of our very personalized existence.
Archetypes represent immutable universal patterns and images that are part of the collective unconscious. These models are innate, unlearned and hereditary and they shape our thoughts, feeling and behaviors. They are common myths and symbols which affect human mind both at the conscious and subconscious level.
