S2 E12: Balancing the feminine and the masculine with Chantal Russell
Manage episode 313549089 series 3275404
We always love speaking with Chantal Russell! We wanted to get her take on where our society is currently with balancing feminine and masculine energy. We reflect on our previous episode featuring Philip Attar and his thoughts on our experience being like a pendulum swinging. At the moment were more on the side of the masculine but we're starting to make the journey back to the feminine. Chantal offers another framing, considering the balance as more of an expansion and contraction.
We talk about both masculine and feminine, especially wounded energies vs empowered, and dive into the dark feminine.
Chantal shares stories about the goddesses Durga, Kali, and Dhumavati who can inspire us to lean into darkness, shadow, and the unknown. If you're interested, Chantal recommends the book Awakening Shakti by Sally Kempton.
