  The Intellectual Warrior

  Image Source

  The intellectual warrior is the kind of person you find in the city with a sharp suit and an even sharper mind. You are intellectual, competitive, feisty, independent, strong, courageous and inspired. You enjoy the city and culture and love people and ideas. This is the energy of progress and social justice. You are likely to conform to society's structure and be really successful in it or completely rebel. In love and relationships you seek a fellow warrior – a partner in crime! – with whom you can fight alongside, sharing in life’s adventures , and someone with whom you have an intellectual meeting of minds. You demand autonomy, respect and to be treated as an equal. However, with your fighting spirit and fierce intellect, you can become isolated or unsure of your place in the world. You can become trapped in your own armour and unable to express your vulnerability and softness. In addition, you can be too much in your head, losing your relationship to your body and the physical world. You may lose balance and grounding, be intellectually exhausted, physically distant from others, or stressed and ill through pushing yourself too hard. See the woman in this picture? Even when she is 'relaxing', her mind is on overdrive, devouring the words in front of her, sparking ideas, thinking about her next move... She can be working HARD doing nothing... Sound familiar? You will thrive and find balance when you are able to make peace with your vulnerable side and find ways to return to your body. In addition, using your lively mind, fierce spirit and commitment to civilisation is the key to having a stronger sense of purpose and finding your place in the world. If you are ready to find ways to inspire, sharpen, and ease your mind all at the same time then a Soul Stuff membership may be just the thing for you. If offers high quality, bite sized, engaging, and consistent way to maintain your mindset. Find out more here:

  The Wild One

  Image Source

  Think of the wild one with a bow and arrow - both a protector and a hunter. A modern day expression of this would be something like the character of Katniss in ‘The Hunger Games’ – solitary, athletic, brave, and at home in nature. However, the wild one is more physical, more in sync with nature, more free, and with a strong relationship to their own body including sexuality. You thrive on physical activity. You are autonomous and aggressive in protecting your own freedom. Your relationship to nature is truly that of the wilds; you are more of a wolf than a lamb and are at one with the rhythms and cycles of nature, thus holding great wisdom and knowledge. You are also concerned with protecting the environment. You feel a deep desire to express their wild nature and long for a lifestyle in the outdoors. A city life will not give you an outlet for your strong physical energy. You have a practical nature and physical strength. You are solitary and independent by nature and may find that you have trouble integrating into society and having relationships of any kind. You can become alienated and use physical activity as a form of escape. You a strong need to roam free and are unlikely to fill roles such as parent, career person, or spouse in the conventional way. Because of this, you may well have explored alternative ways of living, be this in community settings or simply within your own home. Despite your independent ways, your quiet but strong demeanour, athletic stature, and ferocious energy can be magnetic to others. Finding balance will mean being able to choose when you are wild and when you step into a different energy for your own benefit and for other people. You will most be able to thrive when your alone time is by choice and when you can really relate to others and allow yourself stronger foundations in society through relationships and your career. If you don't have enough wild energy in your life right now, then the answer is to get out of places that are too structured - even the gym! - and instead find ways to be physical that are more exhilerating. See the woman in this picture? She is in her element facing the elements and she is exhilarated, ready for the wilds, ready to be brave, ready to be really 'in' nature. She feels it from the tips of her toes, this joy of being in her body and CHARGED for action... Sound familiar?If you are ready to step fully into the power of your wild nature while finding ways to connect then a Soul Stuff membership may be just the thing for you. It offers high quality, bite sized, varied ways of maintaining your personal development and keeping your momentum. Find out more here.

  The Deep Spirit

  Image Source

  The deep spirit likes to reside in the realm of the mystical and the departed. You are very inward looking and have an unassuming manner. You possess a mysterious charm and intensity and have an ethereal quality; there is even perhaps an air of vulnerability about you - or maybe a disconcerting sense of knowingness! You may well have to conceal your ability to cross over into the unknown because others find it unsettling. You have a deep awareness of things that are not consciously understood and this may cause you to seem disconnected from the real world of scientific materialism. This can leave you feeling isolated and misunderstood, particularly when branded strange by those who do not understand you. You may be secretive and reclusive. Your heightened sensory capacity and connectedness to the energy of the world surrounding you can make her you very sensitive, which leads to an even greater need to retreat. In addition, your knowledge of the underworld and your relationship to it can mean that you suffer by experiencing the hurt and pain associated. You can become overwhelmed. However, if you combine this vision and sensitivity to your environment with a stronger disposition then you can be an invaluable member of a community, possessing wisdom and heightened knowledge.You have knowledge of hidden and dark places and this enables you to guide others through its darkness, through the unknown, and through the aspects of living that people most fear. You are a powerful healer grief, loss, fear, or any difficult emotion or experience. If you do not work in this field, it can make you a fierce leader in any context. In its wounded form, this energy may lead to vulnerability and bewilderment. However, once thriving then you become a torch that illuminates a pathway through the underworld, through the aspects of life that others fear, ignore, and avoid. One way to thrive is to develop a strong sense of boundaries and identity, as well as learning to choose when to engage your superpowers so that you are in control and not being exhausted by others. See the person this picture? They are surrounded by darkness but have created a spark, lighting what's around like MAGIC. This person is not afraid to play with fire because they are in command of it... But notice how they are also obscured, needing to bring themselves more fully back into the picture. Sound familiar?If you are interested in developing and maintaining your superpower and having complete command of it then a Soul Stuff membership may be just what you need. It offers high quality, bite sized - but still deep and impactful - personal development that maintains your momentum. Find out more here.

  The Nurturer

  Image Source

  Think of the nurterer as the earth mother (or earth father!) - someone who channels creativity, birth and rebirth. You are in touch with the earth and with the body, which is necessary for you to fulfil her role. You feel that your purpose in life is to provide strength and emotional support to others. You are a homebody. Your caring natures is an attitude that you adopt towards all who surround you and in whatever you do, you nurture new life, possibility and growth… Your sense of self is entwined with this and you find it deeply satisfying without being driven by a sense of pride or ego.This caring nature is instinctive to you, you is selflessly giving and drawn to helping the vulnerable and in need – people, plants, animals, or projects. You have boundless energy for looking after others; however, you may lose yourself in the process. You may suffer a profound sense of loss when those you care for lose their innocence and depart. Further, although you may be needed, you may not feel respected or valued. People may not acknowlege your important place in the community and workplace. Modern portrayals depict your energy as one-dimensional and weak. Finding balance means understanding that this energy is the source of all creation. 'Birth' is not just about babies - it is about any creative endeavour. You are powerful in creating new things and taking the vulnerable and helping it to grow. This is where you find the most satisfaction and make the strongest contribution. However, balance also means being able to focus on yourself and to turn that caring impulse onto your own inner child - this means self care. See the woman in this picture? She is the seed from which all the plants and flowers surrounding her grow and become beautiful and THRIVING. She is the centre of new life and creativity. Notice how she doesn't fill the frame because she is all about what surrounds her, she probably doesn't realise that she alone would be enough (as beautiful as her surroundings may be). Sound familiar?If you are ready to take care of yourself so that you can take care of others and bring all your powerful creative energy into the world, then a Soul Stuff membership may be just the thing for you. It offers high quality, bite sized, and manageable personal development. Find out more here.

  The Big Heart

  Image Source

  The Big Heart is all about love, beauty and sexuality. You recognises the senses and sexuality as a sacred gift and enthusiastically engage in them. You are celebrated and loved for your attractiveness, warmth and charm. However, just looking at the surface will not capture all your facets. You are driven by gratification of the senses; you appreciate and create art, you seek pleasure, and you love to dress up and adorn yourself. You see life as an adventure, take advantage of chance opportunities, and have something of the free spirit about you. You are motivated by connection to others, romance and eroticism. You are essentially a people person, relationships are central to your life, and you will be surrounded by others in whatever you do. You want to feel connected and have loving relationships on a social, romantic and professional level – you are truly heart-centred.However, you are a hopeless romantic. Your open and loving heart is both a source of joy and pain. You do not always command the loyalty, generosity and forgiveness that you offer to your lovers, friends, and family, and as a result you frequently suffer a broken heart. When wounded, you also encompass the properties of secret passion, jealousy and betrayal. You may have been both the exploited and the exploiter. You have battled with stereotypes and culturally imposed, none of which match your playful, deep, expressive, and joyous relationship to your pleasure. You enjoy connecting with others this way. You know that your sensuality is your own to be enjoyed and celebrated. You do not cater for the needs and fantasies of others but for mutual exchanges of pleasure.Finding balance for you means being able to develop such boring and serious things such as responsibilty, foundations, and being strategic about the connections that you make. You need a foundation of safety in order to be able to enjoy your playfulness and protect your own big heart. In addition, it means being able to harness the depth of wisdom contained in your heart-centred nature and finding a way of promoting deep personal connection in the world. See the woman in this picture? She is literally throwing colour out into the world, getting messy, getting the party started, making things beautiful, delighting those around her. Yet sometimes when she is done spreading her energy throughout the world, she is left with a lot to clean up and no will to do so. Sound familiar?If you are ready to really harness the power of your heart wisdom, as well as to support and protect the vulnerabilty that is associated with this, then a Soul Stuff membership may be just the thing for you. It offers high quality, bite sized, but balanced and impactful personal development that keeps your momentum. Find out more here.

  The Royal

  Image Source

  The Royal is noticeable because of their command of themselves and others, possessing poise and influence. You are self-assured and have tremendous presence – a force to be reckoned with. Often, your natural capacity for leadership emerges in later life. You are likely to be the person that keeps your family and community in order. You set standards and expects others to adhere to them. However, sometimes your powerful force will express itself through snobbery, elitism and disapproval.Your obsession with rules and respectability can make you hard and unable to connect through the heart. If you ever feel powerless, you can become bitter and unpleasant. You may also fail to live your own life, too concerned with manipulating the lives of others. You thrive on partnership and seek power and position through the partnerships you make. Your power is generated through social relationships. You seek advantage in both the political and social arena by creating a close-knit and well-functioning community of which you are the centre. You are politically and socially savvy. In marriage, you will seek power, security, position, and opportunity – you will choose your match accordingly! Your thirst for power may have been denied, in which case you may feel frustrated, or else it may have been allowed to run riot and become inflexible. You may be angry if you have not been afforded the opportunity and respect that you strive for. On the other hand, you may have played the game to your advantage and may not be depleted - competitive, jealous and threatened by others who seek to gain social position. To find balance, it is essential to find your place in a community where you can be appreciated for your leadership. You represent stability, support and productivity - you are the reason that communities function and you thrive when able to express your skills in this. On the other hand, if you have lost your flexibility and ability to let go then you need to find ways to connect to your heart and your vulnerablity. Your standards and boundaries should be informed from this place. See the woman in this picture? She means business and she isn't going to be indirect about it either. She might get a little lonely being the leader though. Sound familiar?If you are ready to be the true heart-centred leader that you are and to maintain this for the long term then a Soul Stuff membership may be just the thing for you. It offers bite sized, high quality, manageable and balanced personal development that keeps your momentum. Find out more here.
