    So I'm really struggling with identity and, most of the time, I have no idea what I'm feeling and I just go on with my days with like the sense of emptiness because I don't even know myself and it rly drives me insane. So thank you so much for this and pray for me so that I find myself and my sanity

  • @angrymurloc7626
    @angrymurloc7626 2 месяца назад +24

    Compiling a list because this seems really helpful and I don't wanna keep referring back to the vid :)))
    The Creator:
    - what do you want your legacy in the world to be
    - do you think you're are creative? Why?
    - how can you cultivate thinking outside the box in yourself
    - do you have a life passion
    - do you want to pursue that passion at the expense of everything else
    - are you a perfectionist
    The Lover:
    - are you a sensitive person
    - do you act impulsively
    - when were you last heartbroken
    (Adding one on my own because this arcana seems underused)
    - are you complete, when you are alone
    The Magician
    - when did you last use knowledge or manipulation
    - is the universe working to your advantage
    - what would you wish to change, wordly or otherwise
    (Again I'm adding something)
    - if you fail, do you look for what you should have done, or to understand how you were wrong
    The Caregiver
    - who relies on you, how
    - who do you rely on yourself
    - who do you rely on online
    - where do you self sacrifice
    The Sage
    - who is someone that had profound impact on you
    - is there something you want to learn more about
    - why haven't you investigated it yet
    (Adding smth)
    - are you growing more outwardly or inwardly
    - is advice you give reflective of deeper truth, or practical in the moment
    - how do you imagine yourself as an old person
    The Everyperson (removing the gendered descriptor)
    - what skill are you completely average at
    - what is the oldest object you still use everyday
    (..)
    - do you ever do things just because they are different from how things are normally done
    - what do you gain from 'the simple things in life', are they fulfilling
    The Hero_ine
    - what is the bravest thing you've done
    - where are you too arrogant
    (..)
    - what is the greatest thing you could achieve
    - are you sometimes doing something on your own to prove to yourself you can do it
    The Jester
    - do you feel funny
    - do you take things seriously
    - have you ever found humor in a serious situation
    (..)
    - do you punch up or down when joking
    - do you think you make the right people mad when you say things
    The Rebel
    - when did you stand up for yourself
    - others
    - when did you not stand up for others even though you should've
    (..)
    - are you motivated more by justice or by revenge
    - what about your environment needs change
    The innocent
    - where do you feel you're naive
    - what topics do you avoid
    - what things give you childlike wonder
    (..)
    - what is something you refuse to accept even though people have told you many times
    - do you get more or less 'mature' as you grown
    The Ruler
    - do you feel you're responsible to the world
    - would you wield power wisely
    - what is more important , stability or change
    (..)
    - are you more about ideas or action
    - have people told you they find you inspiring
    - how do you approach making decisions when multiple people are involved. Is the greater good, individual justice or collective opinion the most important
    The Explorer
    - where do you take the most risk
    (..)
    - what is something you experienced that no one else in your circle has
    I recommend screenshotting, then printing (😅) or writing with a text editor beneath each question to have enough space. If you only have a mobile device, consider answering the questions in order spoken out loud and record yourself
    Happy discovery !

    there are so many journal prompts i just dont like or i can’t get into but i really liked these prompts and they were actually interesting and they provoked thought in my mind. i wanted to answer them as soon as i heard them because my brain instantly thought of an answer to write. these linked to stuff in my life and resonated with me rather than other journal prompts that seem like theyre “mindful/mediation” ish vibes so thank you for this :)

    On page 52 of my first journal now. Getting quite bored and from all of the ideas i saw I'm picking this one. So much to think about and it's all somehow connected to this central odea of archetypes. Love it. Starting now.

  • @IttzMey

    These past few years I’d alway have a hard time finding and understand myself. I’m pretty indecisive, doubtful and tend to overthink. I used to journal and write mostly due to mental health stuff but then I have school and life got busy and I feel unmotivated to journal. I feel lost and confused on what I want and even who I really am. This video made me feel motivated to start journaling and I’m excited to discover and get to know myself better :)

    Interesting idea! I used to like the MBTI but never looked into Jung's subconscious stuff much. That part of the mind is the most mysterious and also the biggest part of ourselves. I'm starting to become fascinated with it as I get older.

    • @cuteprograstinator9970
      @cuteprograstinator9970 3 месяца назад +1

      I think it is to understand yourself better and expose habits or trains of thought you often indulge in.
      By doing that, you can better see what aspects of your life you need to change and how to do that.
      It might be easier to tell when you indulge in a harmfull way of thinking after answering these questions. By seeing them black on white it´ll be a lot harder to justify doing things that can harm yourself.
      It can also showcase what areas you need to put more/less energy in.
      Hope this helps!

    • @auronirahman2837
      @auronirahman2837 4 месяца назад

      I think these types of questions can be answered by anybody. If you can't find answers, maybe try looking inwards and seeing if there are some beliefs and attitudes you hold that is blocking you from forming the right answers? Sometimes our own mind doesn't want us to unpack things. Everyone embodies qualities of the archetypes in some ways. I'm sure you can answer them, these are all about *you*! there is no right or wrong answer. These questions are exercises in knowing yourself. Even if you ramble off-topic you can find something valuable in your answers :)

      maybe you do have an answer, it might just be one your mind isn't willing to admit yet. lots of us hold things that don't serve us and just cloud our senses and our introspection. I hope you can work through whatever is blocking you :) there is no right answer. it just is. if you dig enough you will find something, however lots of people are uncomfortable with that and that's okay. you can change that and know and appreciate yourself a little more every day :)
