Which Soul Archetype Are You?
Discover Your True Nature

"Who am I?"—This question has captivated humanity since ancient times. Psychologist Carl Jung proposed that universal patterns called "archetypes" exist within our collective unconscious, shaping our personalities and life journeys.

At Soul Compass, we've developed the "5 Soul Archetypes" framework, blending Jungian theory with Eastern philosophy, to help modern seekers discover their true nature. Understanding your archetype becomes your compass for a more authentic life.

What Are the 5 Soul Archetypes?

Each of us carries one of these five archetypes as our primary energy. Every type has unique strengths and growth themes. Knowing your type is the first step toward deeper self-understanding.
