Polarity and Duality, by guest writer Peony.

Polarity :

1. Intrinsic polar separation, alignment, or orientation, especially of a physical property.
2. An indicated polar extreme.
3. The possession or manifestation of two opposing attributes, tendencies, or principles

Hermes’ Law of Polarity: “Everything is dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature but different in degree; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled.”

Balance

Each concept, each form, any energy has two polarities of identical nature but of different vibration. A battery has two poles of energy one positive and one negative, likewise the earth has two poles, so that each person, animal, plant has two energies, the plus and the minus or the masculine and the feminine.

For some of us this energy is physically visible and manifests as a feminine appearance or a masculine appearance while still possessing the other energy. The body is energetically balanced between the positive and the negative and we are likewise balanced between the feminine and the masculine.

Hermes ‘Law of gender’: “Gender is in everything; everything has its masculine and feminine principles; gender manifests on all planes.”

This physical manifestation resulting from the separation of beings is however not the same for everyone. Indeed, some of us possess at the same time the two physical polar opposites: feminine and masculine.

Is this a ‘problem’ as the doctors are trying to demonstrate?

We know hermaphroditism which is defined as a ‘disease’ and which affects 1/20,000 births but I recently discovered Klinefelter syndrome which is also considered a chromosomal disease represented by the appearance of an extra X chromosome. The individual will therefore have 47 chromosomes instead of 46, this will appear only on male individuals and 1/500 births.

Physically it is only in adolescence that the physical ‘difference’ manifests itself with the development of puberty (hormones) with for example the development of mammary glands. These people can therefore have a physical manifestation both male and female.

Could it be that this manifestation is a balance between the masculine and the feminine and not an imbalance as medicine tries to show us?

Unfortunately, our society does not accept the differences between individuals, by so adolescents feel rejected by their peers and are not always supported psychologically and spiritually by their own family who reject them because of their misunderstanding.

The result is they reject themselves and the others.

I observed and still observe a terrible sadness in my brother who has himself this syndrome, he hurts himself and therefore hurts others because he does not understand what he is. As a child he had violent crises, then as a teenager wishing to prove his masculinity, he came to say terrible things like threatening a girl with rape to prove to himself and others that he is a man…

Society pushes men to prove that they are strong, that they are ‘males’, they have muscles and ‘balls’!

What about those men affected by this syndrome who do not develop muscles and cannot reproduce?!

Physical appearance is an illusion

We are not our appearance, we are not a ‘definition’, we are not ‘man’ or ‘woman’. Maybe we are all of it at the same time?

Duality :

1. The quality or character of being twofold; dichotomy.

2. The state of being two, or of being divided into two; twofold division or character; twoness.

3. The quality or condition of being two or twofold; dual character or usage.

In our dimension, world, physical everyday experience everything contains two parts, male/female, good/bad, right/left, plus/minus…

It is a world of opposition and complementarity. One part cannot be without the other part, we are both part.

But instead of accepting both part of us we create an alternate view of one against the other, the me against you, him against her etc…

Division created duality and friction. Friction is energy.

The coefficient of friction is usually symbolized by the Greek letter mu (μ).

« Mu » the 12th letter of the Greek alphabet who represent the masculine and action… and the old lost continent.

If division created frictional energy, then if we stop playing the dual game, the energy of duality will stop too.

We have and are both apparent oppositions. We are All and all is Us.

So let’s love each other.
