May I ask, how do you tend to live your daily life?

• Do you feel driven and ambitious, and does there never seem to be enough time to reach your goals?
• Do you perhaps feel overwhelmed, exhausted, with a constant sense of not being (good) enough?
• Or do you live life somewhere between power and victimhood?

Many people feel either overly driven or on the verge of burnout – to put it simply. Many of us struggle to maintain harmony between our creative flow and our inner peace.

Our doing and being compete, rather than dance together in love.

It is important for everyone to learn how to balance their inner energies when needed. This gives us greater power over how we live our lives.

To bring our inner energies into a balanced state, we first need a clear understanding of how our two main sacred energies – masculinity and femininity – move within us, and how they play out in our lives.

Every human being carries both masculine and feminine energies, regardless of gender. They are the two sacred currents that flow through all of life.

– When these forces move together in balance, we feel whole, peaceful and alive.

– When they separate or become distorted, we feel fragmented. Overactive in some areas, depleted in others.

The masculine energy is the Current of Consciousness.

It brings structure, clarity and direction.

It acts with integrity and protects what is sacred.

At its highest expression, the masculine is still, steady and deeply present – like the mountain that holds space for the river to flow.

Have you ever experienced being in a steady presence of someone when you went through a drama? This is the holding power of the Sacred Masculine.

Our Distorted Masculine Energy

Under patriarchal conditioning, the Sacred Masculine lost its connection to the heart and became distorted.

Protection turned into dominance.

Clarity turned into control.

Purpose turned into achievement.

You can see this reflected in the world’s obsession with productivity, power and hierarchy.

Perhaps you can see this reflected in the way you live your life as well.

The wounded masculine acts from fear. It needs to prove worth through doing, suppressing emotions and seeking control to feel safe.

The feminine energy is the Current of Life Itself.

She is fluid, receptive, creative, intuitive.

She moves through the unseen: the emotional, the cyclical, the mysterious.

At her essence, the feminine is the heart. It is the rhythm of love that births and nourishes all things.

Have you ever experienced being in a creative flow? You love your activities and their order seem organically growing from one into another. This is when the Sacred Feminine is at her best.

Our Distorted Feminine Energy

In a world dominated by patriarchal values, the feminine has been misunderstood and devalued. Her wisdom has been called irrational, her softness mistaken for weakness, her cycles viewed as inconvenient.

As a result, many of us carry the wounded feminine. This shows as patterns of people-pleasing, self-doubt, emotional overwhelm or fear of being seen.

We have learned to silence our intuition and mistrust our inner knowing, even though that inner knowing is our greatest guide.

When the masculine dominates in its distorted form and the feminine is suppressed, we lose touch with our natural rhythm. We over-identify with doing, striving and achieving. And we become disconnected from the quiet intelligence of being.

On a personal level, this imbalance can express itself as:

• Burnout or creative exhaustion
• Difficulty resting or receiving support
• Emotional numbness or overwhelm
• A constant sense of being not enough

The way forward is NOT about rejecting the masculine. It is about reuniting the Sacred Masculine and Sacred Feminine within.

Healing happens when our inner masculine learns to serve rather than control, and our inner feminine learns to trust rather than fear.

When these two energies meet in sacred union:

•  Action becomes purposeful rather than pressured

•  Rest becomes nourishing rather than guilt-ridden

•  Expression flows with clarity and grace

• Love becomes the guiding force behind everything we do

This is the essence of what I call harmonising the masculine and feminine within. It is the return to the natural state of balance that our souls remember.

Beginning the 22nd of November, I will be guiding an easy to follow 7-month online journey into this deep rebalancing process.

Through the wisdom of the Five Elements and their Five Planets we will explore how these two sacred energies move within you. With the support of The Mary Magdalene Light and some easy but efficient practices you will learn how to bring them back into harmony.

This 7-month online journey is called ‘Harmonising the Masculine and Feminine Within. An online journey of self-empowerment.’
