Our masculine essence is represented
by Yang energy. Yang is our inner fire,

in contrast to Yin’s water. Yang propels
us to produce, perform, and achieve.

Balancing these energies is crucial for
our well-being. Excessive fire leads to
burnout, while an abundance of water

causes stagnation.

Reflect on how your father related to
you. Was he an excellent provider but

lacked emotional connection? This may
result in you showing the world your

accomplishments and achievements, yet
shelving the emotions that your father
was unable to receive. A significant

part of the healing journey involves
“rewriting” the belief that the world’s

reception of us is solely based on our
father’s acceptance.

To explore the Father archetype,
ponder these questions:

- What positive qualities did my father
possess?
- What were his challenging traits?

- How did I feel received by him?
- How do I perceive the world’s reception

of me?
- What was missing in our relationship?
- How can I provide that for myself now?
