Ruler Archetype

Ruler

The Ruler archetype inspires us to take responsibility for our own lives, in our fields of endeavour, and in society at large. If the Ruler overcomes the temptation to dominate others, the developed Ruler creates environments that invite in the gifts and perspectives of all concerned. If the Ruler falls to the corruption of power, a tyrant is born.
