Igniting the Spark of Sexual Passion

They are best friends and great parents. It is clear they love each other deeply. Still, they are confused at their lack of sexual energy. Their sexual encounters are routine and mechanical. They find themselves more as good roommates than passionate lovers. And they want to reignite the spark of sexual energy in their marriage. This scenario is not uncommon for many marriages. And the answer is found in understanding sexual polarity.

Is it true that opposites attract?

The basic law of polarity is that opposite-charged objects attract. Therefore, like-charged objects resist. This is seen with the north and south poles of magnetic energy. It’s also found in the positive to negative flow of electrical energy. Though more complicated, author David Deida says that polarity also explains the flow of sexual energy. In the dance of the sexes, the two poles are the Masculine and the Feminine. This observation reminds us that God created us male and female (Genesis 1:27).

Masculine energy is focused and directed, driven toward accomplishing a mission or goal. This is similar to New York City. Feminine energy is open and flowing, offering a radiant invitation into the celebration of life itself. This is much like Hawaii. This dynamic is symbolized in our sexual anatomy. The male organ points and penetrates. The female organ opens and receives.

Sexual Energies

Sexual energy is about the “vibe” we give off in our relationships. This has more to do than just gender. Firstly, we know that each gender is capable of both masculine and feminine energy. Yet, we tend to be more at home near one pole or the other. This enhances the attraction toward our opposite pole. Society has worked hard toward gender equality, which in practice usually means treating men and women the same. This is great in the business world and in friendship, but not in cultivating a passionate marriage. Sameness is not sexy because it neutralizes the polarity between the masculine and the feminine. This minimizes the flow of sexual energy.

When a good marriage lacks sexual energy, it’s confusing. The polarity is being neutralized. A husband might not think about initiating sex if his wife also brings a masculine energy to the marriage. If she has become one of “the guys.” Similarly, if both spouses bring a feminine energy and are receptive to sex, they grow frustrated in waiting on the other to initiate. Sexual passion requires both the masculine and the feminine pole. When both are not present, sexual energy is diminished.

If you are looking to energize your sexual life, here’s our tip. Increase the masculine-feminine of your relationship. For the masculine, this means courageously tapping into the deeper direction of your life. For the feminine, it means opening to reveal your true radiant essence with the inviting energy of Hawaii. Sexual energy flows stronger when both poles can be fully experienced. Practice magnifying sexual polarity and reigniting the spark of passion in your marriage.
