The second spiritual archetype given by LaSara Firefox Allen is Potens – symbol of power and potential.
She represents action, energy, resilience. She is relentless progress, tenacity, courage. She is the force that, in the mornings after the days of pain and tragedy, kindles the spirit to rise again. That reminds us that though the war may be eternal, the battles are still worth fighting.
When you access Potens you put tradition to one side. You reach into new possibilities. You use your own skills to effect the change, be they with the sword or the pen. Your actions may be fire, may burn others, but at the same time may be the beacon for rousing the revolution.
Potens is not here to be liked. She is here to make something happen.
