I appreciate the suggestion to connect with archetypes through tools like tarot, it helps make something abstract feel much more concrete. I've found that I can sense an archetype when there's a particular ...feeling might be the right word?...attached to an action. Like cleaning! It's a strange example, but I've had experiences where I felt an urge to create organization and cleanliness, which feels so deeply human. Or making art - there is a sense of a deep need to express myself through a creative outlet that transcends words or explanation - it feels like I'm tapping into an energy that all humans can access.
That makes a lot of sense. Archetypes, when activated, can flow through the emotional channel to drive behavior. When intensely constellated, it can feel like we are overpowered, divinely-inspired, flooded even. On a smaller scale, it can be, as you said, this very embodied, human experience.
