by Dr. Nikki Starr Noce MD: As individuals and as a collective, we will know the greatest peace and joy…
when the masculine and feminine energies become balanced–both within ourselves and in society.
As I shared in my last post, our external reality is a projection of our internal state. Thus the world we are experiencing reflects the excessive masculine energy within most people. When out of balance we see an overly worked, sexually focused, aggressive way of existing.
It’s important to be clear: Masculine is not “bad.” Feminine does not mean female/woman. Masculine does not mean male/man.
Indeed women usually embody more feminine traits and men more masculine, but both of these traits live within us. The feminine needs the masculine, just as the masculine needs the feminine. Each have their superpowers.
When in balance, the masculine is admirably strong, decisive, confident, focused, direct and action oriented, with logical, linear and leadership ways of relating. Just as men, women benefit from these traits too.
We currently live in a masculine society that values and focuses on “doing.” Because the masculine is out of balance with the feminine, we see a consumption based way of living where resources are overly extracted for the sake of a competitive market. War comes from overly aggressive ways of relating. If masculine AND feminine decision making guided our countries, perhaps war would not exist.
Awareness is the first step to creating balance.
I’ve been sharing about the 8 Quests to Spiritual Freedom since my return from Damanhur Community and the Masculine is Quest 5 (connected to the Hall of the Earth–the element of the masculine–shown here). During the retreat, we will walk energetic grids and meditate in halls that specifically target the masculine and feminine aspects of our being. Contact me if you are interested in joining us.
How can you take responsibility for your role in the co-creation of our society?
I invite you to take a moment to reflect on your life and observe where the masculine may be out of balance. In what ways can you infuse the feminine essence into this area of your life to create more peace and harmony. Please share any insights.
With love,
Nikki Starr
