Gender is in everything
An explanation of Hermetic Principle #7: The Principle of Gender
VII. The Principle of Gender
“Gender is in everything; everything has its Masculine and Feminine Principles; Gender manifests on all planes.”
Gender goes beyond biology.
If we can understand polarity, then we can understand gender.
The feminine and the masculine are the ultimate poles in all things. They are inherent in the study of the extremes.
The light is masculine, the dark is feminine. Exertion is masculine, introspection is feminine. Creation is feminine, refinement is masculine.
Within us, we embody a masculine and a feminine.
Masculinity and femininity extend beyond biology. An age of history can embody masculine energies, while another expresses more the feminine. When we become too distorted in one, we have simultaneously denied the other.
No matter who or what you are, you will have a masculine/feminine match.
