WHY IS IT SO HARD TO FIND REAL MEN ANY MORE?

PART 3

Although the question raised in this article does not appear to be one of the most difficult spiritual topics to discuss, in fact it is! In order to explain it properly we have to have an understanding of some fundamental questions of creation. And indeed, I needed to split this article into three parts in order to answer it properly.

To summarize everything that we have said so far, it can be pointed out that the lack of real men can be attributed to the following six major factors:

1. With the advent of the new Age of Aquarius the traditional family model as we knew it for thousands of years is gradually collapsing.
2. In this new age, the roles of males and females are not strictly defined, as it used to be in the previous ages, but they intermingle their functions.
3. As a result, husbands do not love their wives “as their own flesh” and wives do not respect their husbands, as it was supposed to be according to the old scriptures.
4. Feminism, prosperous career women, draining men’s financial resources during and after divorce, single mothers raising boys and general lack of understanding about men’s psychological needs put masculinity under enormous pressure.
5. The new “Aquarian” society provides plenty of financial benefits to gay couples and
   economically penalizes men who want to be good husbands and fathers.
6. People have expectations to meet a real man or woman, without actually looking at themselves first (i.e. without conforming to the law of complementing of male and female energies).

Today we will elaborate on some of those factors that we haven’t discussed in the previous parts of this article. Let’s first look at the last one. We know that the spirit is genderless and normally incarnates at least twice during each of the Great Years – once as a male and once as a female.

This fact does not mean that the spirit itself does not have its preferences. Quite frequently certain spirits exhibit strong inclinations towards one particular sex or another. The main idea of the spirit being incarnated in a human body is for the spirit to learn certain spiritual lessons, which cannot be learned otherwise in the spiritual world.

One may be inclined to think that the sex into which it incarnates does not matter, since the spirit itself does not posses a gender and so can easily fit into whatever body it wants. However, this is not the case.

After the death, the physical body is bound to decomposition and decay, but the essence of it remains in the memory banks of the spirit. This is necessary, because in the time between the death and the new incarnation, when the spirit lives in the spiritual world, its main task is to ruminate over its past lives and the last one in particular. By re-living again what it had done right or wrong before, the spirit develops impulses that allow it to redeem its bad karma in its next life and it learns how not to repeat the same mistakes again.

Certain spiritual lessons can be learned in a male or a female body only, so the spirit needs to be incarnated in a particular sex if it wants to learn a particular lesson.
However, if the spirit is strongly inclined to be reborn over and over again in its “favourite” sex, then it can have a problem adjusting to the body of the opposite sex, when the need for this arises. The tendency in the new Age of Aquarius is to intermingle the functions of males and females so eventually the differences between them are obliterated. For the clairvoyant observer it is obvious that a significant number of spirits that are now incarnated as women were previously incarnated at least three or four times in a sequence as men.

Let’s do the following exercise in order to understand better what that means. Leave the magazine in front of you for a minute and fold your arms without thinking. Note the position of your hands. Now try to fold your arms by reversing the position of your hand, for example if your left hand was on the top of the right one, fold them again but place your right hand on the top of the left one. Does it feel comfortable?

Something similar happens with the spirit, when it has been reincarnated several times into one particular gender and then it finds itself into the body of the opposite sex. It just does not feel comfortable enough. Similar to a new pair of shoes, it takes some time before one can adjust itself to the new conditions. In other words, although the spirit is quintessentially genderless it is not free from bias and it can comprise a bit more or less of the feminine or the masculine energy, depending on its preferences. The ideal, completed and perfectly balanced spirit comprises 50% male and 50% female energy. When such a spirit incarnates into a human body it imbues the energy of that body and forms a perfect organism that is free from bias and both masculine and feminine energies flow in harmony. If the
spirit is embodied already with a certain surplus of one type of energy, a misbalance is created that sometimes may last a lifetime to fix.

Every human, however masculine or feminine may appear to us externally, in fact comprises a certain percentage of the opposite sex energy. For example Arnold Schwarzenegger consists of about 90% male energy and 10% female, Al Pachino has about 85% male energy, while some new age celebrities like Brad Pitt are just above 70%.

The existence of female energy in males does not make them women; it just indicates the presence of their intuitive, receptive and imaginative part. Similarly the female sexsymbol
of the 80s, 90s and even till present day – Madonna has a little bit over 60% female and about 40% male energy. This does not prevent her from arousing sexually millions of men around the world.

One quick look at her website – www.madonna.com , shows that nearly all 54 concerts, comprising her 2004 world tour in May, June, July and August were sold out long before the event.
So, the bottom line is that every individual comprises male and female energy at the same time, which is
completely normal. In fact, it is actually beneficial for us in the new Age of Aquarius to develop these to a more or less equal level, thus having the benefits of both worlds.

The spiritual law of complementing the male and female energies states that two partners form a perfect couple, if their male and female energies complement each other to 100%. What does that means? That means that if for example the man has 80% male and 20% female energy, he will form a perfect union with a woman, which has 80% female and 20% male energy. In this case both their male and female parts will be complemented to 100%.

One of the greatest mysteries between sexes is the question: Why on earth do men get attracted by women and women get attracted by men? Well, the reason is exactly this: we are attracted by people that have in excess the type of energy that we are lacking ourselves. Men generally lack female energy and women lack male energy, so that is why they get desperate sometimes to find it in another person. You merge with another person in order to replenish your deficit of a particular type of energy (male or female), while the other person is doing exactly the same with you. In case you complement your male and female energies with those of your partner exactly to 100%, then you may think about “living
happily ever after”. Until this happens, however, the search goes on.

This also explains many otherwise inexplicable behavioural patterns. For example, career women that hate men and don’t need them in their lives. When observing such women with a clairvoyant eye it is apparent that although physically they appear very sexy and feminine, in fact they have a great excess of male energy. Frequently, the last three or four incarnations of such spirits can be traced back in men’s bodies. Looking at them from this perspective their behaviour becomes logical and justified. What they learn, however, is how to develop greater femininity within themselves. Although they often say that they are happy and content living on their own, emotional blows, inexplicable loneliness, irrational moodiness and often general dissatisfaction in life will force them to examine themselves deeper.
