Maculine and Feminine Energy

Often people confuse gender with masculine and feminine energy. Gender is of the body. Every being, whether male or female, has masculine and feminine energies. For the most part, male bodies tend to more readily accommodate and allow the flow through of masculine energies and female bodies more readily accommodate female energies. However, the essence of each being is ultimately a perfect blend of masculine and feminine energies.

Awareness of these energies throughout the continual evolution of the human societal experience has continued to grow. Initially, the masculine and feminine energies were strongly expressed through the genders with men often taking on breadwinner roles and women taking on home-maker roles. There were often imbalances in the treatment of genders during these periods. Now, the awareness has shifted to where there is more of a balance and respect for the energies AND the genders. However, the appreciation and enjoyment of the unique expression of these energies is often watered down due to fear of acknowledging the inherent beauty that lies within the perceived differences. Desire is born out of contrast, so when one denies the existence of contrast, creative expression can often be stunted.

Continual growth will come out of an embracing of the differences in these masculine and feminine energies. This can result in men becoming more masculine and women becoming more feminine leading to reignited passion and enjoyment of partners. These changes can happen to anyone, regardless of gender as the energy is not assigned to any specific gender or sexual orientation.

In some schools of thought, masculine energy represents consciousness and a force that is "stoic, penetrating, unperturbable, and instinctually capable of ripping the feminine open to God" (David Deida). Regarding the feminine, some schools of thought see the feminine energy as representing energy, creation and change with a force that is "hot, passionate, beguiling, ultimately desirous of being ravished open to the brink of ecstatic madness" (David Deida).

If becoming aware of the differences causes discomfort, the discomfort is simply an egoic attachment to a position, idea, etc. Flow with it and allow yourself to grow into awareness of the beautiful variations of life's expressions. Accepting change is accepting the nature of creation as change is the only constant.

Having Fun is a Creative Process

I spent the last few days at Disney World with my family. We had fun at the various theme parks enjoying the thrill rides and other activities. A vibration of 'fun' begets more fun via the law of attraction. Who doesn't want to do things they enjoy? If you want to attract more of the things you enjoy and open yourself to inspiration for new, fun ideas, do something that you think is fun. When you are really immersed in fun, you become timeless, full of energy and fully present, thus accessing your limitless potential as a creator. While the rides at the amusement park may be fun and cause moments of presence due to the intense adrenaline rush, even standing in line to wait for the rides can be be turned from 'waiting' into 'being', making the entire experience joyful. Of course these same principles can be applied to your daily life so that life in general becomes more fun for you. You can begin to see life as a giant, fun ride and stop taking yourself so seriously. Have fun!
