senex
Definition:
The Senex archetype represents wisdom, authority, and tradition. It often appears as a guiding figure, such as an elder or mentor, but can also manifest in its shadow form as rigidity or dogmatism.
Example:
Exploring the Senex archetype helps clients access inner wisdom and confront any overly rigid tendencies. For example, recognising a dream figure as a wise old man may reveal a need for guidance or introspection.
