Prioritizing 'Being' Over 'Knowing'

Emergence is not urgent.

It is patient, yet persistent.

There may be moments where events, responses, and decisions move quickly, while others require stillness. Yet there is a larger container holding it all. There is the Divine Itself and your own Divine spark within it.

I feel that container within me growing and expanding. In one way, there is no time to waste, and yet all the time in the world. I sit in humble worthiness toward what I am being called to, what wants to move through and with me, as well as what needs patience in order to emerge.

This can feel challenging to a part of me that once needed to “fill the void” or “make it happen yesterday.” In the state of Emergence, there is a trust that all is on time and aligned with a greater geometry that I cannot fully see, but can deeply sense.

Maybe as I continue to stay true to that sensing, it will not feel so mysterious in the end, but rather like a natural unfolding of Being over Knowing.

What I also sense is a growing understanding of my own expression of masculinity.

I used to feel such a need to become what was socially accepted as being a “man.” I could also feel this pressure within spiritual circles around the “sacred” or “divine” masculine. Same projection, different dimension.

I feel fortunate to be in a community with beautiful feminine hearts and souls who are exploring, healing, and embodying their own expressions of femininity and what that uniquely means to each of them. There are common threads, yet distinct characteristics within every expression.

Through that experience, I can feel where similar frequencies exist within my own masculine, as well as where differences emerge. It is through that contrast that I continue exploring my relationship to my own masculine expression and to my inner feminine.

I have also had meaningful and powerful time being modeled and mentored by another masculine presence. Now that presence is moving out of my immediate field, I can feel both what has been learned and what is uniquely different about me.

Not as judgment toward myself — though that has certainly been part of the healing journey — but as a recognition of my own masculine presence and medicine.

This presence is rooted in heart and truth. A truth held and expressed with care.

That does not mean there will not be conflict or friction. There absolutely will be. Yet conflict itself becomes a kind of sorting ground between what is genuinely true and what is merely being held as true by a part of me.

It is a gift to experience relationships where people genuinely embody and live this way. I am still growing accustomed to it, but it feels deeply enlightening and growthful in the fruit it bears.

It is my relational intimacy dojo.

So this emergence becomes both a process and an experience that clarifies itself through intimate relationship — relationship to self, others, the world, and the Divine.

It is magical, yet also deeply natural, once we allow ourselves to breathe, receive, respond, and express.

I am opening more fully now to hold space for that emergence in others as well.

What lives inside of you that is seeking more light, more air, more embodiment?

How does your relationship to yourself and others nourish or suppress that expression?

Are you chasing, or are you Being?

Sometimes it is hard to tell, because Being is not merely stillness.

It is Flow.

It is Fire.

It is Love in Action.

I am curious about my own Emergence as well as yours.

It is through this process that a New World emerges from the ashes of what is dying and being reborn. You and I are both microcosms of this collective transition.

Let’s make that happen from the inside out.
