The Awakened Sacred Masculine chooses to become totally accountable, first with himself and then in all the engagements and relationships in his life. In relationship, this is how trust is created and integrity maintained and what is sorely missing in many of us today. Just ask the women in our lives. The primary motivation of Awakening The Sacred Masculine is to fulfill a deeply held Spiritual Soul code or contract to evolve into the full, living embodiment of our essentially Divine natures, as humans and as men. As men, it is time to honor our sacred purpose by embodying the Awakened Sacred Masculine. This is the new direction in men's work and final frontier for us all.
This however, is not gender specific, it is not limited to us anatomically designed men. Both men and women carry masculine and feminine qualities. We are all an unique combination of each. Although the masculine attributes are obviously more expressive in a man, the masculine principle has to evolve in women as well. In many respects, this point of view depersonalizes the 'us verses them' mentality, not just towards men but about men as well. The dark stigma long held and well earned slides off but not away and is in fact, shared within us all, men and women alike.
Over my life, I have observed men always fear most what we believe will destroy us. Not from outside of ourselves, but from within. A man bases his entire ego and personality projections around the unconscious belief that maybe he really is not good enough, strong enough, or powerful enough after all. All of our arrogance and braggadocio is a total cover up of our often huge emotional insecurity, personal doubt and deep self-loathing. Our egos are triggered by fear, so we often try to cover if not conquer our fears through domination and control. From this old paradigm way of thinking, might does make right and from our Shadow's point of view, is all that really matters.

Our Shadow self is made up from all the inner wounds that never healed within us as children and their residual energy only festers, growing more and more combustive, angry and resentful. All the crazy shit men do comes from this deep well of pain, often lined in anger. To awaken our Sacred Masculine awareness, we will have to travel through our personal Shadowlands, a journey into and through all the places we unconsciously fear we can never make it through on our own. This is where all our most painful memories and all our inner child woundings live. Most of all, this is where our most caustic and critical self-judgments dwell.
