Immortal

This archetype represents a person who has been put in a position where they feel they must serve as a paragon. A parent, an older sibling, a celebrity, a politician… all of these people can feel as though they must be superhuman, or appear as such, in order to be successful in fulfilling their daily obligations. Some of them can feed off the feeling that their position does, in fact, make them superhuman.

When a person who doesn’t actually have any "fans" invokes this archetype, it is very likely a sign of mental instability. When a person who has "fans" invokes this archetype, it can be a good thing if it is done in an honest attempt to inspire and lead. If it is done in the service of one’s ego, however, it can be harmful in a variety of ways.

If you’ve found you invoke this archetype with greater frequency lately, you have probably been occupying a role where you’ve had to lead by example while serving as a kind of detached consultant to those whom you’re are leading (as opposed to leading as an actual member of the group). This guidance that is intimate-yet-distant can create the feeling among those you are instructing that you are the standard to which they should strive, giving you an almost divine quality.

If you are dissatisfied with the dominance of this archetype in your life, you should make an effort to be less disconnected. Let people see your flaws. Rather than rejecting you, they will find you easier to accept into their own imperfect lives. Remember, too, to make plain that you also accept them just as they are.
