Generations of the Prophet archetype, by contrast, grow up as increasingly indulged post-Crisis children, come of age as defiant young crusaders during an Awakening, cultivate principle as moralistic midlifers, and age into the detached, visionary elders who preside over the next Crisis. This archetype clearly fits Boomers as they have moved from their mid-twenties in 1980, to their mid-forties in 2000, to their mid-sixties in 2020.
