Death is not the end.

The life of the Phoenix type is a grand journey of growth and discovery, leading up to the greatest adventure of all: the liberation of consciousness from the body in the moment of death.

Like the phoenix that rises from the ashes of its own funeral pyre, you carry within you the wisdom of rebirth and regeneration. Open-minded and inquisitive, you’re naturally drawn to explore ideas around the afterlife and the continuity of consciousness, and you resonate with the spiritual wisdom and scientific insights—from research on near-death experiences to the post-mortem meditative states of Tibetan monks—that suggest that death is not the end.

You’re not afraid to venture into the unknown, which tends to show up in a strong desire to expand your own consciousness. You’re a natural psychonaut, and you’re drawn to explore the realms beyond the ordinary through psychedelic experiences, meditation, communing with the natural world or other ways of tapping into altered states of awareness.

There is a certain peace—and a deep sense of empowerment—that comes from knowing that, in some way, your essence will live on. You’re likely to be drawn to green burial innovations like human composting and biodegradable burial pods that give your remains new life as a mighty oak tree or a wildflower garden. Why not become a living, breathing part of the natural world?

Venture boldly beyond your known zone, Phoenix—but don’t forget that there is magic in the mundane. It’s the little moments of connection, kindness and beauty that make the journey worthwhile.
