Clearing for the Fundamental Survival Archetype “The Victim”: How Our Self-Protection Mechanism turned into Giving Away our Power

Desription Of Clearing for the Fundamental Survival Archetype “The Victim”: How Our Self-Protection Mechanism turned into Giving Away our Power

“The Victim” is one of the 4 basic survival archetypes that is present in each one of us.

It is an inner universal pattern in human consciousness, originally designed to keep us safe from harm in the physical world.

It was constructed as part of our human survival instinct, to help keep us on alert, and on the lookout for unsafe people and situations, so that we could be protected from danger.

In modern human society, The Victim archetype can still sometimes serve this instinctual purpose of protection from harm.

But most often, The Victim has turned into a sense of instinctual blame — now expressing as a sense that we are victims of other people, victims of our circumstances, victims of our past, and victims of what happens to us — with no true power to change our lives and our destiny.

It is originally our survival instinct — but now turned into a victim identity.

The unevolved Victim archetype can develop into an inner long-term sense of blame, keeping us continually externally oriented, giving our power away to others.

When The Victim is functioning within us in this way, it is impossible to feel powerful, and impossible to truly change our lives for the better. What originally was a mechanism for us to sense potential external harm has now become the limiting factor that keeps us stuck.

Most of us know that the beginning of all true positive transformation in life is a sense of innate empowerment. You wouldn’t be guided to transformational work like this if you hadn’t already awakened to some realization of the Divine Power that lies within you.

The problem is that we may have much subconscious energy still invested in lifetimes of blaming others for the problems we have in life.

We have to use karmic spiritual clearing work to help transmute the old energy, so that our authentic spiritual power circuits can become energized. It’s only from that place that we can begin to make a positive difference in our life.

These 4 basic survival archetypes were originally designed as part of our human survival system, ensuring we would be kept safe in the physical world, helping us to learn how to manage our energy and power.

The 4 archetypes each have a shadow side and an empowered side.  If we don’t work with making conscious the energy of the shadow side — and transmuting it — the action of these archetypes can become crippling, keeping us trapped in the grip of habitual action and reaction, operating based on survival fears learned in childhood.

“The Victim” is one of these 4 fundamental survival archetypes.  It was discerned by author and healer Caroline Myss, primarily in her book Sacred Contracts, but it also comes from the work of Carl Jung.

It is not inherently negative, even though the name may seem that way.  In its role as a survival archetype, “The Victim” keeps us on alert for “what might happen” by keeping us externally focused, giving our power away to other people, circumstances, and conditions through blame.

We may feel always taken advantage of, and we may deflect blame from ourselves by believing “it’s never my fault”.  We therefore wait for others to save and fix us.  We may get locked in this cycle of blame and victimhood because we get a negative payoff of sympathy or pity.  When this archetype is unevolved, we may also victimize others.

Remember that we all have some version of this archetype, because it is universal.  It’s function was originally for basic human survival.

However, we don’t want to remain stuck in the unevolved version of this archetype forever.

The purpose of this group clearing is to transmute as much of the consciousness we currently have — from this and from past lives — invested in the lower, unevolved form of “The Victim”, and establish that energy in the higher, “Empowered Self” version.

The evolved, cleared version of “The Victim” might be called “the Empowered Self”.  As we heal this part of ourselves, we increase our awareness of own power, and begin to co-create our life by moving into more empowering choices.

This clearing will also involved a subset of The Victim archetype, and this is “The Drama Triangle”, which is a seductive loop of victimhood, blame, and control patterns learned in childhood.  We may find resonance with 1 or more of the characters in The Drama Triangle, but we may have subconscious energy invested in all of them.
