As we consider our Lessons this is worth remembering:

The most shameful aspects of our experience hold the seeds to our ecstatic awakening.

These are our Issues, the wounds that are to be healed in our lifetime. It does indeed take Courage to face them and move forward. Intimacy is not possible without the Courage to explore the Lessons we incarnated to learn. Honestly addressing these facts-of-life and making changes where needed sets the stage for the encounter. It is that simple.

Let me stand on my soapbox for just a moment, if I may… As we examine our Issues regarding sexual identity, we may come across some un-examined material: repressed, as we say. Now as a student we may already know that I espouse our basic bisexual nature. Consider this: we are experiencing other lives in other timeframes the male and also the female. Naturally and ultimately, Dear Blog Reader, we are both. Then, if we were to go on one of our psychic voyages to another of our lives, as we suggest , and we discover that somewhere in time we were a woman, and in this current life we are a man, and we greatly identify as a man, we have an important Lesson to learn.

One way to learn is to intentionally ask for feminine power from the female life to come to us here in our current existence. We would accept this energy and integrate it into our identity. We would then become MORE than male; for we would be broadening our consciousness, enlarging our beliefs, opening up to our reater creaturehood.
