Archetype ONE is in the Somatic/Physical Belonging triad.
It moves through the Divine, Nature, and Human Octaves of being.
Embodied reflection invites deeper integration of its Freedom.
Within the Human Octave, Archetype One brings the gifts of ethics, accuracy, discipline, and a drive to improve the self and situations. One bestows the capacity to navigate all sorts of structures, whether they be agreements, like rules and protocols, or aspects of the physical landscape.
Even if Archetype One is not featured prominently within your character, it helps you function. One is involved in your capacity to successfully maneuver and arrange anything.
In the realm of Somatic Belonging, the One Archetype is satisfied when you're able to accurately work within the parameters of physical reality. The energy of One brings a drive toward goodness and seeks freedom from error and transgression. This card suggests that the virtues of One will bring needed order, precision, and ethics to your current situation.
