Celebrating the Sacred Masculine
We have within all of us two primary energies, one being feminine and the other masculine.
Unfortunately, in most people, there is an observable imbalance of these energies, which can be remedied.
This article ventures into commencing this balancing act and what the sacred masculine could look like.
Here we explore what it is to be, or become, an authentic male, divorced from the pseudo-macho traits of inauthenticity and ego.
