Man’s Version Of Creation
Creation resides at the epicentre of humanity. The feminine in the female embodied is the epitome of creation. She literally gives life. Of course not without the integrated essence of the masculine. However, the feminine carries, births, produces and houses life.
Man’s or the masculine drive to create therefore becomes a focus for the masculine mind and essence. We create systems, structures, buildings, innovations, technologies, we generate wealth, sociocultural momentum, economic models and so much more in the “outside” world.
Whilst this is useful and necessary for expansion as our external is a reflection of the internal; the shadow expressive reflection of this “NEED” to create is demonstrated through excessiveness, hyper-competitiveness, the compensation of “over-doing” at the expense of other values such as loving relationships, living an aligned purpose, integrity and being in the world.
In its shadow; our doing is in excess, it is obsessive and is attempting to compensate for the ultimate creation of life. When we are not at peace with the value we bring, our unconscious belief of not being enough in the world (because we think we are less than as we cannot procreate), then suppresses and oppresses the feminine and true masculine power — again, at any cost.
She is belittled and devalued. And we become autocratic, restless and never satisfied. We become power-hungry, with an insatiable appetite for more and more and more. We become rampant consumers, chained to an industrial era of corporations and the almighty dollar. Let us come back to a yearning for change.
Our sacred place must shift from the “corporate entity” to the mythical, the curious, the fertile earth, community and the cosmos. This is the domain and the empire of man. To step into this truth and be validated by his own sense of intrinsic worthiness will reinvigorate the evolving man. Man is powerful and is needed. Mans being is equally as valuable. We need to know this.
Competing and comparison with our women is not a fruitful task. It creates isolation, distance and resentment. We grow separately and despise each other’s gifts as opposed to celebrating our differences.
Our time to be different is drawing upon us. Can you be a man of cosmic curiosity? Can you balance certainty in self with the mystery that is life and bathe in the lagoon of possibility with a greater sense of peace?
One is glad to be of service.
