The Astrology of the Puer Aeternus: Why Some People Never Grow Up

What if the reason some people never grow up isn’t immaturity, but myth?

In this post, I explore the archetype of the Puer Aeternus, the Eternal Child, through the lens of astrology, Jungian psychology, and symbolic myth. From Peter Pan syndrome to the Pages of the Tarot, we’ll look at how this pattern of creative potential, emotional avoidance, and resistance to structure plays out in the modern world. If you’ve ever felt stuck between dreaming and doing, this one’s for you.
