I’ve become somewhat obsessed with Joseph Campbell lately. I found a copy of The Power of Myth and have been pouring over it these last weeks. Each paragraph blows my mind! He speaks of feminine mythos that were displaced by masculine mythos, and it got me thinking, this in-between torture we’re in the midst of? It is because of an imbalance between feminine and masculine energies.
Feminine and masculine energies have nothing to do with gender. We all have feminine and masculine energies in our bodies. All genders can tap into BOTH energies, though it’s common for most to have a more dominant energy, but this can shift day to day. Both have positive and negative attributes and our best life is when we seek balance between the two in all things at all times.
As we seek balance, it is IMPERATIVE THAT WE DON’T BURN DOWN, DIMINISH OR SUPPRESS the masculine. That will not result in balance. In fact, that's exactly how we got into the current mess we're in now. By the end of this episode, I hope you learn to embrace all parts of yourself and find that the balance between masculine/feminine is your superpower.
