How literally should I take this?

I wouldn’t take it literally. You have to be careful of ego inflation, where you take on too much of an archetype, that often happens when a person takes a symbol too literally, e.g. someone starts thinking God is talking to them, they’re an incarnation of Zeus or they’re Jesus. Artemis represents a part of the larger psyche, if you take it too literally you’re in danger of being overwhelmed by that energy. Don’t take literal instructions from it. Remember you’re a person who has your own desires. Try and ground yourself as much as you can and don’t take dreams literally. Otherwise you could fall into a manic episode.

Look up ‘Artemis Jungian interpretation’ that’s the symbol this God represents. It’s a metaphor of something else.
