I AM 8 Meditations On The 4 Male Archetypes 2 Affirm Your Idea of a Man By Omar Zac Phillips

I wrote this small impactful book as a meditation on The Four Male Archetypes – King, Warrior, Magician and Lover combined with a mantra I have recited in my daily meditations for some years. Once while meditating on the archetypes and using my mantra ‘I am Whole’, ‘I am Perfect’, ‘I am Strong’, ‘I am Powerful’, ‘I am Rich’, ‘I am Harmonious’, ‘I am Loving’ and ‘I am Happy’, The Universe brought to my attention that my mantra; literally fitted together like a puzzle with the Archetypes. Going through them in twos the first two; ‘I am Whole!’ and ‘I am Perfect!’ were perfect affirmations of my Sovereignty therefore, related to The King Archetype. ‘I am Strong!’ and ‘I am Powerful!’ resonated with the archetype of the Will, The Warrior Archetype. ‘I am Rich!’ and ‘I am Harmonious!’ were great affirmations to declare over my Mind which is represented by The Magician Archetype. and ‘I am Loving!’ and ‘I am Happy!’ no doubt fitted hand in glove with the archetype of connection The Lover Archetype. The penny dropped and I was compelled to put pen to paper when I recognised that my Sovereignty had been compromised by looking through other people’s eyes to ascertain if they accepted me or not, then basing my acceptance of myself on what I perceived in the eyes of others. This precariousness perspective I realised had been a habitual way of showing up in the world. So this book is a pep talk I gave to myself to re-organise my mind by marrying The Four Male Archetypes with my Daily Meditation Mantra in order to shift my paradigm from less than empowering points of view to the empowered perspective you’ll discover in these pages. I invite you to drop in on this pep talk and let the sentiments expressed here resonate so that your perspective also may be enhanced with a Sovereign – integrated way of seeing yourself in the world.
