Now there is a lot of information and events are being held on the topic of femininity, female, maternal …

And every year, despite a lot of everything, the topic does not cease to be relevant and, it seems, is gaining momentum more and more. Clubs, trainings, meditations … As if how to be “female” in this world is completely incomprehensible. I honestly admit that some of the concepts of "femininity" frightened me and caused a storm of not very positive emotions. For a long time I could not understand what was the matter until I saw clearly that I was being put before a choice - either / or. And if I want to be a Real Woman, I have to hide my jeans, grow my hair, forget about having my own opinion and look at a man as a “Teacher”.

The male part in me is violently rebelling, as if something threatens to be pushed into the shadows and they urge me to abandon it, devalue it. And yet he is so important to me.

I love my male part. She is successful, aggressive, reckless and energetic. She helps me live in this world. I like to compete and win, I like to feel like a defender of my (and not only) interests, I like to be quick, efficient and decisive. And this is a significant part of me. She needs nourishment and satisfaction.

I realized that I am an opponent of extremes. I am for the balance of masculine (Animus) and feminine (Anima) in everyone, regardless of gender. And the balance is determined by the personality itself, through the degree of satisfaction with life, the fullness of being.

The concept of Yin and Yang, as inseparable parts of one whole, is very close to me. And if we consider a person as whole and indivisible, it makes more sense to talk about the harmony of these two principles. About their coexistence and flow into each other. And there is definitely a problem with harmony and balance. And it seems to be very relevant. Otherwise, women's trainings and practices would not be so in demand. How to be feminine, and what it is in the modern world is often completely incomprehensible …

Somehow it happened so culturally that our society pumps exactly Animus characteristics: activity, adherence to principles, competitiveness, outward orientation, purposefulness, rationality …

And he condemns the manifestations of Anima: emotionality, impulsivity, self-absorption, irrationality, mysticism …

This position is tantamount to trying to move on one leg. Possibly, but so difficult! That is why one wants so much to bring the Feminine out of the shadows, to give the right to be and breathe deeply.

I gladly accept many manifestations of femininity - tenderness, sensitivity, contemplation, reflection, care and many others. But definitely, there are aspects that I find it difficult to be with, and which I find it difficult to accept in myself: impulsiveness, impermanence, vulnerability … The secret is that it is in them, in their acceptance that the essence of my stability, missing pieces of the wholeness of my soul. My roots.

Feminine for me is very connected with the earth. Physicality. The universe. With confidence in the world. Every woman who has given birth to a child has experienced a great and mystical transformation process. Very alarming, because there was so little opportunity for any kind of control over the situation. For me, this is completely the territory of the Anima - the Great Mother, and if during pregnancy I somehow did not think about it, then the birth stunned me. My body lived its own life, not connected in any way with my mind. It followed its own rhythms and rules. It did such an important thing as the birth of a person completely on its own. And my "correct" breathing techniques and so on, as I now understand, had no value and simply calmed my mind, my male part. An incredible experience.

And breastfeeding! To live how your body produces something necessary for a child here and now, so also in different forms, depending on the time from the day of birth - Generally the Cosmos! Having lived all this, I know exactly how wise the female essence is and how much power there is in it.

The masculine principle provides me with energy, activity outside, the willingness to defend and expand my boundaries, my capabilities, and the feminine one directs me inward, to my sensitivity, creativity, physicality … And it’s somehow strange to decide what to leave: a crown or roots. And how to choose here? And most importantly - why?
