Male and Female, we all have these two qualities embedded within us, some of us having more of one than the other.
The Divine Feminine is the female or feminine aspect of Divinity named Shekinah, known also as The Divine Presence.
In Christianity she is known as The Virgin Mary.
The Divine Masculine (or Male) drives thoughts, emotions, desires and behaviours and is made up of six archetypal types:
God
King
Priest
Warrior
Lover Sage
These two aspects, both male and female, actually mirror one another, showing parts of ourselves and areas we need to work on to become our highest manifestation of Self.
Buddhism: The Self is comprised of five things:
Form
Sensation
Perception
Mental Formations
Consciousness
Spiritually speaking, most do not know, or were never taught about this male/female relationship and how fundamentally intrinsic and important it is to our overall spiritual growth and well being.
Today we are seeing an imbalance between the two.
Instead of men and women working together, cooperating together, a virtual war between the sexes has been declared as each side accuses the other.
I have hope that this ensuing battle will result in some deep soul searching, by both sides, resulting in a truth that in order for humanity to ascend and reach a higher level of understanding, their deeds (both men and women) must partner with their thoughts.
And revisit the knowledge that God made both man and woman not to be apart from one another but to partner with one another.
We may have different physical attributes and are wired differently but the bottom line is, we are spun from the same cloth and shadow one another.
