To heal masculinity is to honor femininity
To heal masculinity is to honor femininity.
As much as we need to heal masculinity, we need to honor + elevate femininity.
It’s no secret that humans are terrified of the feminine. She has been subjugated, abused, mocked, erased, silenced, burned, buried, violated for so long we no longer see the myriad ways this continues.
After all, the feminine is the great unknowable force—the dark, tangled chaos of pure potential, rather than the clean lines of what’s already known.
She’s the creativity that disrupts the assembly line.
The sensuality that disrupts untouchable order.
The intuition that disrupts reason.
The empathy that disrupts the need for violence.
She f*cks with predictable profits of arbitrary systems.
But because masculinity has not been healed, still a shadow of what it could be—though it is finally in the process of healing—it has not had the balls to meet her where she is: to be potentiated by the full force of the feminine.
Worse, masculinity KNOWS it has chosen the smaller game, and hates her for it. And so, it has tried to make her go away.
We only dominate what we fear. And whatever gets dominated has no choice but to grow stronger in order to survive.
Plot twist, baby.
Clean, rational lines haven’t gotten us what we need—nor has oppressing the feminine or celebrating the imbalanced boy-masculine.
Healthy, happy lives need more dimension: more diversity, more creativity, more intuition, more body, more empathy, more expression, more color, more connection, more nurturing, more daring. More damn sunlight, clean water, rich earth. More possibility.
We need healthy masculinity to MEET—not subdue or submit to—healthy femininity in order to feel our human power + align fully with life.
As we potentiate ourselves, we need to embed the healthy feminine into our systems: our familial systems, our economic systems, governments, businesses, processes, methods, coding, data, narratives, science—to align them with the full spectrum of life, not just profits.
And life is the gift of the feminine: Real, embodied, shifting, emergent, entangled life. A high-quality life worth living + loving.
Welcome to the divine feminine. She sees you, and she raises you—because she longs to be fully MET in her full power.
