From Innocent to Magician

Who are you in love? Are you the Innocent? Or could you be the Magician?

In The Six Archetypes of Love, Dr. Allan G. Hunter identifies six classic profiles of individuals in love; the Innocent, the Orphan, the Pilgrim, the Warrior-Lover, the Monarch and the Magician. Hunter, who is a counselor and professor of literature, shows how we can move through and become any one of these archetypes at different stages in our lives and our spiritual development.

Using examples from real-life, like Prince Charles and Princess Diana, from popular culture, such as Desperate Housewives, and from classical literature, Hunter helps answer universal questions about love: What exactly is love? How do we find it and how can we keep it? Why are there so many puzzling forms of it? In addition, the book helps to answer some of our more personal questions: Who am I in love? Who is my lover? What stage of development am I in and how can I transition from one to the next? By using the ancient Tarot to provide a visual reminder of each one of the classic stages, Hunter lays out the archetypal characteristics and behaviors of the individual in love, both in and out of the bedroom.
