I think this naturally comes from allowing the intelligence of masculine energy to truly and instinctively work through us. Just look at the animal kingdom, the animals did not read any philosophies on how to behave but when a Lion shows up they just know to be careful.
It is an universal energy that manifests and represents itself in different ways. But the essence of it remains the same. Whether we are aware of it or not, it is inside of us and in moments of need we call upon it for our safety and protection such as when a father protects his child… this is one such specific scenarios when the biology truly taps into it and when even the otherwise most coward individual would forget about his own safety or even the possibility of a concern for his life to protect his own off-spring.
When your life is truly threatened, masculine energy will also show up through the mechanism of adrenaline and whatnot to assure you can protect yourself. In other ways it will be there as hormones such as DHT and testosterone but these are just reflections in the body of an energy that is part of you and an energy has intelligence. Most men never studied any power plays in the past but just knew how to achieve power for example. They did things by instinct or intuition. It was just there for them.
I think personally we have to stay true to our own instincts at times.
So I have written some of my ideas here down, I hope they are useful and can contribute to this wonderful subliminal. Masculinity can be approached in so many ways and if this program can get to the core and essence of it, it can manifest in truly wonderful ways for people who want to explore that.
I am suddenly getting a lot of ideas right now. I also think masculinity is meant to serve & protect, lead or build. Like the army who protects their nation, or the police force, firefighters etc who are all their to protect their nation. In the healthy expression it should serve the greater good not conquer the world and dominate.
Masculinity creates safety through presence and grounds while anchoring chaotic or emotional energy without fixing or controlling it. Just presence. A quality most women innately lack which is why they need a masculine counterpart. However I do believe in evolving beyond such need a becoming a wholesome individual who has both masculine and feminine energies developed and fully integrated within oneself.
I think presence and grounding are probably at the heart of true masculine energy. They are essentially the spine of it all, the rest just flows from this such as leadership, direction, action all flows from this stable inner core. It is like a silent strength that is fully here and now and takes everything in as a witness with undivided attention. Taking everything in, without being consumed by it.
Full-bodied aliveness rooted in stillness and attention. So this presence is naturally attractive to women as it provides safety and trust. A sort of “hey I am here fully with you, you can relax now, you are safe”…
Anyway to be unshakeable under pressure you need to be fully grounded and present and that is what masculinity is in its embodiment.
