Both feminine and masculine energies are found in each individual. All women and men possess these energies. The ideal is the balance of both masculine and feminine within each one of us. In that case, we embody the traits of the feminine and masculine such that neither dominates the other.
Feminine Energies
The deepest part of ourselves is also the wisest. It is our intuition. This intuition comes to us through gut feelings, images, and often the inner voice inside. When we tune in to these promptings, we are receiving information from something greater than ourselves. This might be called the universe, God, Source, or a higher power. There are many names for this energy force, but it is represents unity with the whole, oneness with all things, the perfection which is ours when we shed the blocks we construct around ourselves.
When we open ourselves to the messages that come, we are in a receiving mode. That is the feminine energy. We embrace the higher intelligence that watches over and guides us. So it is important to accept that there is something greater we can connect to than simply ourselves.
Masculine Energies
The masculine energy within us is action. It is our ability to do things like think clearly, speak assertively, and physically move. Masculine energy enables us to act. This energy is an outward energy, which is necessary in order to construct and express the creative force. It can be powerful physically, as well as thoughtfully. It is how we get things done in the world.
Feminine and Masculine Energies
We like to think of ourselves as individuals who make our way in the world based on our intelligence and ingenuity. That is partially true. However, we will actually be more successful in our lives when we blend the feminine and masculine traits. Yes, we must act, but that action will be better directed when we use both the inner and outer knowing that we can tap into. Balancing the two energies helps us become more complete.
Conclusion
We were born with the ability to tap into our feminine and masculine energies. Whether we do or not depends on influences that we accept or reject from the outside world and how we incorporate them. Our greatest possibility for success and happiness in this world is a balance of these energies. How do you express yourself? Adonai.
