Themes from this episode:




  • The unconscious uses masculine and feminine characters and imagery to communicate with us about different parts of our personality.

  • Everyone, regardless of gender, has masculine and feminine aspects of their psyche that they can use at different times when needed.

  • The unconscious constantly uses the masculine/feminine dichotomy to symbolize opposite forces inside us, because it’s such a well-known pair of opposites that we see in external relationships where people balance and complete each other.


  • Feminine/yin/lunar characteristics:




    • Feeling, sensing

    • Appreciating beauty

    • Connection and relatedness

    • Soul, imagination, interiority

    • Slower pace, time for reflection, being (rather than doing)


  • Masculine/yang/solar characteristics:




    • Thinking and organizing, order and reason

    • Action and doing

    • Analyzing

    • Differentiating, classifying, making boundaries

    • Competing

    • Aggression and power
