Balance in Landscapes

Also in landscapes we find the masculine and feminine principles. Take for example Wartburg castle in Eisenach, Germany, with its South Tower, built in 1318, protruding out of the surrounding Thuringer forest. Or the Borobodur temple on Jakarta, with the nearby feminine counterpole in the nearby Sendang Sono Maria grotto.

These places balance eachother out - often a lot better than our human societies manage to do. Instead of complementing eachother in harmony, we are beginning to toss all our eggs into the basket of a homogenous equality, which soon washes out into sameness and a turgid lack of differentiation; turgid: for the cloudiness in our outward politics covers up deeper seated resonances to the cosmic and undying principles of yin and yang.

In short, I am concerned how we are repressing the man and woman within by trying to look only at superficial correspondences. Duh: we're equally important!

Poles apart can come together

How can we best honor this necessary polarity? All my writing explores this. As a (cosmic) twin I love duality. I love light and darkness. Good and evil. Dis-ease and healing.

While we are trying to reflect the equal importance men and women both have in the whole of life, by levelling out payment and insisting on mutual respect (that whole # metoo movement) and by promoting a better understanding of the necessary differences, we are still identifying too closely with the primal shape of the male and female, as a sexual being. Sexuality and gender division (of which I have already written) enable us to have deeply spiritual experiences, but when our physical bodies are miscomprehended and their energies poorly reigned, they lead us astray into a violent and disorderly astral world (a hell world). A dip into a "helluva" party is one thing, but finding oneself lost in shame and regret is another kettle of fish.

If we took up our manhood and womanhood, carried parenthood between them, and went out to recharge ourselves in Nature, we would discover many more secrets about the meaning of life. Her beauty and wisdom astounds. The design that goes into her works makes for a fascinating study of geomancy and geometry.

Earth Healing

This is something we can all be getting on with. Man or woman, man AND woman must tap into their creative flow, call upon their etheric body (their own counter gender!), concentrate their astrality (still the milling mind) and receive the Divine Will: i.e. feel what is good and right and whole.

There are 4 preconditions to be met for a meaningful and lasting healing to take place. See here for more info: http://www.trans-4-m.com/global-wisdom-council/marko-pogacnik-slovenia/
This is something a little different to following eco-warriors with political agendas and not for the faint-hearted.
