Mythic Mentor Archetype Quiz

Ancient wisdom meets modern psychology in understanding your unique cognitive and moral blueprint.

By Mark Travers, Ph.D. | Last Updated: February 12, 2026

What if the ancient gods and goddesses weren't just stories, but timeless patterns of human psychology that still shape how we think, decide, and lead today? The Mythic Mentor Archetype Quiz bridges classical mythology with contemporary personality science to reveal which archetypal deity best represents your cognitive style, moral framework, and approach to life's challenges. Drawing on Carl Jung's concept of the collective unconscious and modern Big Five personality research, this assessment measures you across four key dimensions: strategic versus intuitive thinking, external versus internal focus, stability versus transformation orientation, and justice versus mercy inclinations. Your unique combination reveals one of sixteen archetypal mentors—from Athena's strategic sovereignty to Brighid's alchemical compassion—each grounded in real psychological patterns that neuroscience and personality research have validated. After discovering your mythic mentor, explore how your inner voice archetype shapes your self-talk or take the philosophical orientation test to understand your deeper worldview.
