Step 3. Identify the dominant model

AVERAGE SCOREINTERPRETATION
4.0–5.0Dominant model. This is your main behavioral pattern right now.
3.0–3.99Secondary model. It shows up in stressful situations.
1.0–2.99Weak model. Not characteristic of you in the current period.

Step 4. Find your dominant model (Step 3) on the archetype strength scale: the number beside it is your result, from 1 to 12

STRENGTHARCHETYPEMATURITY LEVEL
12PhoenixThe peak of development—wholeness, maturity, service
11ChameleonAdaptation and the search for oneself—close to the peak
10TeresaService to society—a high level
9GeishaTalent and recognition—awareness is growing
8LilithResources and security—a transitional level
7CourtesanFreedom of choice—still tinged with neurosis
6HippieFreedom without responsibility—halfway there
5MistressDependence through love—the work continues
4CinderellaServing out of guilt—a dependent position
3PuttanaRebellion and protest—the point where awareness begins
2BeggarDemands and manipulation—the starting point
1InfantaTotal dependence—the first step of the path

Results 1–4: You are in models of strong dependence. This is your starting point. Awareness is the first step toward transformation.

Results 5–8: You are in a transitional period. You already have some independence, but neurotic patterns remain.

Results 9–11: You are close to the peak. All that’s left is to take a step toward sincerity and wholeness.

Result 12 (Phoenix): Congratulations. You are on the path of maturity. Remember: the Phoenix is a process, not a point of arrival.
