SAVIOR COMPLEX
The Martyr or Savior Archetype This archetype is correlated with the unhealthy functioning of the second chakra. This archetype takes full responsibility for his or herself, and often takes on the responsibilities of others as well. However, the Martyr or Savior does not have the inner vitality/security to take time or give energy back to his/herself. This archetype is also called the Savior Archetype because it is related to the “savior complex” often found in the career world of healing and health care. Often those who care most about society in general do not know how to care for themselves as well. The result is that they run ragged- and become the Martyr or Savior. This is directly related to low or dysfunctional energy in the second chakra. The second chakra relates to giving ourselves the credit and energy we deserve, and we do not do that, this chakra can leak energy and cause imbalance to the rest of the chakras. ????????????????????????????????????????????

The Emperor of Empress Archetype: This archetype is correlated to the healthy functioning of the second chakra.
This archetype represents the person who contributes both to the world and to him or herself. I often think of the Empress archetype as the beautiful, productive career woman who also takes the time for herself and enjoys all the beauty and luxuries life has to offer. This archetype is useful in understanding the energy of the second chakra because the Emperor or Empress is vital enough, emotionally healthy enough and is balanced in his/her feelings enough to enable him/her to give generously to the world and give generously back to his/her self as well without feeling guilty.
