The Yang energy of the feminine is rising.
Women are stepping into a power like nothing we've ever seen on earth. This power looks nothing like the masculine Yang energy. It's not about dominance or strength. The feminine Yang energy is rising to birth a cultural and planetary transformation. Deep down, the masculine wants this, yet it is also disconcerting, unknown terrain. Men are confused.
What does this have to do with your relationship at home, with your wife?
What is happening on a macro level is mirrored at a micro level. As above, so below.
If you are reading this, it is likely that you are feeling your woman's Yang energy intensifying. Perhaps right now your wife is training to become a yoga teacher. Or she is getting political. Or she is making art. Starting a business. Perhaps she is simply asserting new ideas in the bedroom. Finding her passions.
As I've discussed elsewhere, those who think deeply about these dynamics identify that a masculine Yin energy is rising to complement the feminine Yang. If you desire to be in (or to improve your) relationship with a strongly Yang woman, consider cultivating your Yin nature. Yin is not effeminate—it can be as deeply masculine as feminine. As deeply masculine as the testicles. Like the testicles, the masculine Yin nature is ever generative, resourceful, and steadfast. These qualities are supportive of and desired by Yang femininity.
The Yin man is not dominant; he is in partnership with the woman.
Yang feminity is unpredictable. There is no set way to partner with a Yang oriented woman. Yin and Yang exist as in a dance. Dance with your woman, and trade leads. Sometimes you will need to follow her lead; other times you will be looked to for leadership. Be flexible and creative.
The Yin man is playful. He laughs that he cannot control or predict the Yang woman.
The Yin man is patient. He knows that wonderful things await him if he allows space and doesn't demand immediate gratification.
The biggest shift for a man is probably not relinquishing the outdated role of Boss, but rather stepping into a supportive role without hierarchy. The feminine Yang is changing the world, but not through an organized, linear, structured approach. (That would be masculine.) It makes sense to a man to “ line up” behind a cause, or an organization, that he can make sense of and support. Men of this age are being asked to support what they don't necessarily understand. We are being asked to follow our hearts and keep our hearts open. To bring our masculine gifts, to provide, to organize where needed. But all in service of something that is inherently mysterious.
We are done setting lofty goals and making plans for Towers of Babel. The world is changing because we've taken Man’s mastery over his environment as far as we could, and now this is a deficient way of operating.
Her yoga or her art may not make sense to you. Her passions or way of doing business may seem perplexing. Listen to your heart, not your head.
Let her know you are behind her, and that you believe in what she is doing. This will transform your relationship, and the world.
As always, I welcome honest thoughts informed by your journey. If you disagree with my perspective or have a different one, I’d appreciate if you say so simply and through respectful dialogue.
To your health and evolution!
