This book explores their application in modern life as a framework for self-development and to align our physical, mental and emotional bodies.
Working with the fundamental building blocks of life we learn how to move beyond judgement, raise our vibration and use the laws of polarity and attraction for personal and planetary transformation.
Everyone in their life had a moment of crisis in which they had asked themselves what had gone wrong and what could have been done. Most of the times these problems are just how our inner self perceives certain situations. This book, despite not having the presumption of telling the reader categorical answers and paths to follow, offers a great journey into the complex world of understanding the inner self. The language used makes the reading flowing and easy to follow, captivating and fascinating. All the terms used are explained at the end of the book in an appendix that can be consulted in moments of confusion, I would also suggest reading it before the actual book to have a better idea of the topic. Another positive aspect of this book is that it offers four different tables of the different interactions of Masculine and Feminine that can be printed and thus easily consulted. What I liked the most was how the concept of Masculine and Feminine did not follow the societal categorization that only men can be Masculine and women Feminine. Both men and women have coexisting Masculine and Feminine characteristics. It is only to this polarity and their balance inside a person and consequently in a relationship that success can be reached. The duality is also found in immature and Mature behavior and while immature behaviors are not always bad, the book offers techniques to follow to evolve, devolve and devolve our inner self. The more I read the more I recognized myself in some behaviors described in the pages. All the elements in this book helped me stop and look inside myself to try and better myself. I highly recommend it!
I was admittedly skeptical of the idea at first, thinking this was just going to be another book with hetero and cisnormative ideas. But I was pleasantly surprised.
It helped broaden the picture of what feminine and masculine qualities actually are while properly displaying what they are not. It helps to shape us as people instead of sex or gender; accepting both the good as well as the bad of both.
It truly embraces the idea of one not living without another both in the world around us as well as inside ourselves. Not putting one above the other or diminishing someone who has more of one energy over the other.
In witchcraft, we have masculine and feminine energy in nature. It's a balance between each other and some have chosen to change the terms from passive and active as it means the same thing.
So, this work had the same basic concepts. We don't put the moon above the sun or plants above water. Masculine and feminine qualities exist in both as far as spirituality is concerned. Even when something is prominently feminine or masculine, it's never diminished.
Even if you are unsure, it is still a very interesting read to broaden your perspective at the very least. I recommend this book to anyone wanting to better yourself and understand your own energy and personality.
After reading this I learned the understanding of the inner self and the separation between the mature and the immature is the first important step to having a great future. "Masculine and Feminine Polarity Work: A Guide to Navigate Polarity, Duality, and Your Own Evolution," is a great and unique book that gives amazing analogies for understanding life. Furthermore it helps in making the changes needed for a better balance of masculine and feminine traits. Polarity and duality are an integral part of nature and the understandings this book has given me is really helping me to take the most effective decisions and to give me more choice in how I react to situation. The book is a perfect guide on how to rediscover the inner self and enhance the traits of the mature masculine and feminine while developing and adjusting the immature characteristics. I highly recommend it!

This book presents a clear and easy to understand approach how female and male energies and principles can be developed in ourselves and therefore also in others. In addition empathy, kindness and empowerment. Since i have read this book, it is my daily companion in all areas of life, applicable and combinable with private session work, also offered by the author. energetic bodywork helps me to grow extremely into an integrated and loving being with a clear orientation and vision. I wish that this book and this approach finds its way into schools, rehabilitation centres, therapy centres etc. the way i and my family are treated has changed dramatically. Shadowwork and sexual empowerment are in my opinion the most effective methods to integrate my own core. Please do yourself a big favour and read this book.
The book explores the importance and dimensions of self discovery, self development, sexuality and more. It focuses on how you work as a whole with the universe and through all the white noise and distractions. And all this through an interactive form of narration. It makes you think deep, about your conceptions and notions of attraction. As an Indian I’m very well aware of concepts like Advaita and it’s interesting to see her deal with it. Masculine and Feminine Polarity Work: A Guide to Navigate Polarity, Duality, and Your Own Evolution by Elliott Saxby is definitely well researched. It is a self help guide and acts as a working guide on finding and understanding yourself better. It helps you confront your emotions better. I connected with the essence of the book.. It is filled with practical advice. The narrative is interesting and is thus a fast read. The writing is beautiful, gripping, inspirational and most importantly very significant.
With the appropriate choice of words and extensive explanation, the author has vividly presented a concept which needs our attention. The masculine and feminine traits which are inbuilt parts of humans, irrespective of gender, need to be understood and steered through smartly instead of being misinterpreted for which the writer has done a great job to help us. You might find some repetitive words and assume the ideas are also the same but that's not true. I personally was amazed by the fact that how accurate the maps depicted in the book are and I couldn't argue to any of its points. I definitely recommend reading this book.
To grasp the main themes of the book it requires attention, indulgence, and commitment to the study of inner-self and outer-self but by the end, the understanding and notions of polarity and attraction can do wonders and bring every success.
