THE JOURNEY

Embark on a transformative journey into the depths of your psyche as we delve into the rich tapestry of boyhood archetypes outlined by renowned psychologists Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette. In this immersive 8 week online journey, you'll embark on a profound exploration of the inner child, uncovering the hidden patterns and dynamics that shape your identity and influence your adult life.

Drawing upon the groundbreaking work of Moore and Gillette, we'll traverse the landscape of the Hero, Divine Child, Precious Child, and Oedipal Child archetypes, each representing essential aspects of the boyhood psyche. Through a blend of theoretical insights, experiential exercises, and practical techniques, you'll gain a deeper understanding of these archetypes and their relevance to your personal journey of self-discovery and growth.

Guided by Graeme Ford - aka SUPER G - and Hugo Lopes, the founders of MAN ALIGNED, you'll learn how to recognize and integrate the qualities and shadows of each archetype, fostering greater self-awareness, resilience, and authenticity. Through reflective practices, journaling prompts, and group discussions, you'll uncover the wounds and gifts of your inner child, forging a path towards healing, empowerment, and wholeness.

THE BOYHOOD ARCHETYPES:

The boy archetypes, as outlined by Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette, are rooted in their exploration of the masculine psyche and are often depicted as foundational patterns of behavior and thought that shape a man's development. Here are the four primary boy archetypes:

1. The Divine Child: This archetype represents the innocence, wonder, and potential inherent in every individual. The Divine Child is characterized by curiosity, creativity, and a sense of awe and openness to the world. It embodies the capacity for growth, learning, and transformation.
2. The Hero: The Hero archetype embodies courage, strength, and the willingness to confront challenges and overcome obstacles. It represents the innate drive to achieve greatness, to protect and defend what is valued, and to embark on quests or journeys of self-discovery and growth.
3. The Precocious Child: The Precocious Child archetype reflects the rebellious, mischievous, and adventurous aspects of the psyche. It embodies the desire for freedom, autonomy, and exploration, often challenging authority and societal norms in pursuit of individual expression and authenticity.
4. The Oedipal Child: The Oedipal Child archetype encompasses the complex dynamics of attachment, rivalry, and longing for intimacy with parental figures. It involves the process of individuation and separation from parental influences, as well as the integration of masculine identity and sexuality.
