The Organic Masculine presents an integral journey to redefine masculinity in wholeness. Delve into the essence of what masculinity means today. This evocative workbook will guide you to embody your authentic version of the organic masculine-empowered, generative, compassionate, and rooted in love.
This text begins with the question, "What is masculinity anyway?" and situates gender within a robust metaphsycial framework. Through these pages, you will weave together the evolution of consciousness, Integral Theory, contemporary gender studies, and masculine archetypes. We'll explore the masculine through identity, relationships, and sexuality. You'll emerge with a cutting-edge self-worldview of your masculine essence integrated within the ever-evolving wholeness of the kosmos.
In order to access the life-affirming core of masculinity, we must first acknowledge the harm that men are causing in the world today. This new vision redefines masculinity outside the distorted power-dynamics of social oppression. By integrating critical feminist and queer perspectives, men's work is able to be truly empowering to all humans.
The vision of The Organic Masculine looks beyond academic gender theory into the psychology and mysticism of the archetypes, which are essential for the initiation of mature masculinity. Focusing on the Magician archetype, the first volume in this four-part series will guide you to find your inner Magician to walk the path of initiation. Subsequent volumes will explore The Warrior, The Lover, and The Monarch archetypes, each offering their own rite of passage into the empowered masculine psyche.
This engaging book is a transmission of consciousness that will draw you into deep inner work. Through exercises, reflections, and narrative explorations, you'll enter a space of inner alchemy and transformation. In all, The Organic Masculine offers a comprehensive guide to integrating masculinity in the modern world.
