The world is largely aware of what patriarchal rule is and that it is a detriment to progressive civilization. In this article I will discuss key historical events that illustrate the corruption of patriarchal rule as the result of wounds to the divine masculine and the severance of his connection to the divine feminine.
One of the first patriarchs in recorded history was Abraham. In fact, many people credit Abraham with being the 'father' of several modern religions. The idea of Abraham as a central historical/religious figure is a very troubling, albeit very telling illustration of the nature of patriarchal rule as we know it. Abraham is recorded as having had some trouble conceiving a child until his first son, Isaac, was born. It would be apparent from historical documents that either Abraham was in touch with a malevolent extraterrestrial or he was just mentally ill as he heard a voice claiming to be god which instructed Abrabam to 'sacrifice' (kill) Isaac.
Abraham went about preparing to kill his only child, and when this 'god' saw that he was in fact willing, he told Abraham to stop. God told Abraham that instead of killing Isaac, he could just cut his penis and that would be enough blood to satisfy the sacrifice. This was called circumcision, it is removal of the foreskin which is a protective structure for the glans penis, which is a significant energy center on a man. Without foreskin the glans becomes keretanized and desensitized and energy transfer is disrupted.
This circumcision creates a visible scar and is THE wound of patriarchy. Circumcision serves to sever the connection of the divine masculine to the divine feminine.
How is it that we have allowed someone, who by today's standard, should be institutionalized for being a clear danger to other people, psychotic according to the DSM, influence such a huge part of modern culture?
The answer seems clear. We must stop cutting people's bodies when they cannot consent. We've got to allow time for healing of this wound.
