Book Description
The study of Masculinity is fascinating. From taking modern ridicule to upholding Men within transpersonal ideals, commitments, and values, most people have praised, or degraded Masculinity. Why is this? Why is there so much confusion and separation surrounding this topic, and should there be? Sacred Masculinity will un-blur the lines, and clear your perception of Masculinity integrating the utmost sacred aspects of our Sacred Masculine Archetypes. Through exploring the worlds of philosophy, shadow psychology, and methodology, we not only explore a multitude of facets of embodied Masculinity, but we explore the four mature male archetypes, depicted, described, and upheld throughout generations. Recorded within myth and literature throughout our history, a strong family essence comes from a strong Man. Men are adequate protectors, providers, and procreators, ordained to set a safe space for the people around him to flourish. This is Sacred Masculinity.

The Hidden Spirituality of Men
Author: Matthew Fox
Publisher: New World Library
ISBN: 1577317920
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
It is no secret that men are in trouble today. From war to ecological collapse, most of the world’s critical problems stem from a distorted masculinity out of control. Yet our culture rewards the very dysfunctions responsible for those problems. To Matthew Fox, our crucial task is to open our minds to a deeper understanding of the healthy masculine than we receive from our media, culture, and religions. Popular religion forces the punitive imagery of fundamentalism on us, pushing most men away from their natural yearning for spirituality and toward intolerance and domination. Meanwhile, many men, particularly young men, are looking for images of healthy masculinity to emulate and finding nothing. To awaken what Fox calls “the sacred masculine,” he unearths ten metaphors, or archetypes, ranging from the Green Man, an ancient pagan symbol of our fundamental relationship with nature, to the Grandfatherly Heart to the Spiritual Warrior. He explores archetypes of sacred marriage, showing how partnership becomes the ultimate expression of healthy masculinity. By stirring our natural yearning for healthy spirituality, Fox argues, these timeless archetypes can inspire men to pursue their higher calling to reinvent the world.

Sacred Masculine
Author: James Galluzzo
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780615954813
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 52
Book Description
In this second book of The New Eden Series, artist, author and spiritual guide James Galluzzo explores the Sacred Masculine and a return to the spiritual dimensions of being male. The Sacred Masculine has become lost in patriarchy and hierarchy, in old established roles and patterns. Expectations of culture, status, power, money and religion have conditioned men away from their authentic selves. But men are beginning to feel the call to embrace the sacredness in their lives, to reclaim their humanity, respect their true selves and live with integrity. By addressing the old messages of what it means to be male, by facing old hurts and healing that pain, men can begin to call the sacredness into themselves and see the sacredness in others, and in all of creation. Through art, prayer and poetry, the Sacred Masculine offers men a different way of being masculine, a path to become more fully human and a way to rediscover the deeply sacred in their masculinity. Rediscovering the sacred will allow the Sacred Feminine and the Sacred Masculine to merge and create a connection to wholeness in which all people can live and work in peace, bring about justice and respect for all living creatures, the earth, the universe, the cosmos and recognize the sacred within and among us. This is the path to creating a New Eden.

Masculinities without Men?
Author: Jean Bobby Noble
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774859849
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
Conventional ideas about gender and sexuality dictate that people born with male bodies naturally possess both a man's identity and a man's right to authority. Recent scholarship in the field of gender studies, however, exposes the complex political technologies that construct gender as a supposedly unchanging biological essence with self-evident links to physicality, identity, and power. In Masculinities without Men? Jean Bobby Noble explores how the construction of gender was thrown into crisis during the twentieth century, resulting in a permanent rupture in the sex/gender system, and how masculinity became an unstable category, altered across time, region, social class, and ethnicity.

The 5 Masculine Instincts
Author: Chase Replogle
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 0802476465
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 167
Book Description
Don’t trust your instincts—there is a better path to becoming a better man. It’s no secret: today’s men face a dilemma. Our culture tells them that their instincts are either toxic or salvific. Men are left with only two options: deconstruct and forfeit masculine identity or embrace it with wild abandon. They’re left to decide between ignoring their instincts or indulging them. Neither approach helps them actually understand their own masculine experiences nor how those experiences can lead them to become better men of God. The Bible doesn’t shy away from the reality of masculine instincts nor all of the ways those instincts can lead to destruction. Examining the lives of five men of the Bible, The 5 Masculine Instincts shows that these men aren’t masculine role models or heroes but are men who wrestled with their own desires and, by faith, matured them into something better. Through this book you’ll discover your own instincts are neither curse nor virtue. They are the experiences by which you develop a new and better instinct—an instinct of faith. By exploring sarcasm, adventure, ambition, reputation, and apathy, The 5 Masculine Instincts shows you how to better understand yourself and how your own instincts can be matured into something better. This is the path by which we become better men.

King, Warrior, Magician, Lover
Author: Robert Moore
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0062322982
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 195
Book Description
The bestselling, widely heralded, Jungian introduction to the psychological foundation of a mature, authentic, and revitalized masculinity. Redefining age-old concepts of masculinity, Jungian analysts Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette make the argument that mature masculinity is not abusive or domineering, but generative, creative, and empowering of the self and others. Moore and Gillette clearly define the four mature male archetypes that stand out through myth and literature across history: the king (the energy of just and creative ordering), the warrior (the energy of aggressive but nonviolent action), the magician (the energy of initiation and transformation), and the lover (the energy that connects one to others and the world), as well as the four immature patterns that interfere with masculine potential (divine child, oedipal child, trickster and hero). King, Warrior, Magician, Lover is an exploratory journey that will help men and women reimagine and deepen their understanding of the masculine psyche.
