Unit 0 Series Overview. Unit 1 Converging Cultures. Unit 2 Dreams and Visions. Unit 3 History and Memory. Unit 4 Ceremony and Society. The Zeus archetype is one of the leader or ruler. Those who fit into this archetype are very likely to be in a position of authority, leadership or community service.

Generally, the archetypal Zeus exercises good judgement, wisdom and fairness when exerting their authority, acting for the benefit of others rather than just themselves and with a sense of cultural and ethical awareness. However, this is not always the case and the archetype can also be associated with power sought for negative purposes and with tyrannical authority. The controlling aspects of a Zeus, however well intentioned, can also lead to them becoming alienated from those around them, inspiring revolt and anarchy amongst those who do not wish to conform to their strict need for order and the rigid rules which they seek to impose.

The archetypal Zeus also tends to combine an active intellectual mind with a healthy physical body and can be attractive to other individuals.

They approve of and encourage creativity in others as long as it does not prove threatening to their own position, so for example where they are in a position of management they may foster the ideas and creativity of their staff but only in so far as they perceive it can benefit and not threaten their own authority.
