In the beginning, there was one. Balanced yin and yang. The decision was made to individuate these two vectors and house each in its own vehicle. and As in all games, one side ascended and the other declined. The ascendant was the feminine. With the advanced knowledge of science, it was established that the physical could continue without the need for the male energy. Artificial insemination would replace the need of the male for the furtherance of the race. The male could be kept around for amusement if necessary but he was not needed. Great civilizations arose of Amazon women. The battle of the sexes was won and the male became as significant as the male Black Widow spider to be eaten or discarded after his y chromosome was extracted. If there was any need it was to replenish the sperm banks from time to time and thus was tolerated. As in all games of Yin and Yang, like the game of Go, cabals, and conspiracies grew in the dark corners and power shifted to the Yang element. The Yin had to be suppressed. Patriarchies developed. The feminine was suppressed. Murder and mayhem were dealt with the Amazons. Every center of feminine power was crushed. This suppression has continued throughout most remembered history. Contemporary Religions or codified agreements of action are a testament to the male ascendancy.
We are seeing with the near extinction of the species with potential nuclear war and contemporary war, the rise of Corporations, international and local violence, the potential enslavement of the rest of the planet by small groups that the male dominating energy is not the answer either. We are in a new age. The species has gone through adolescence. Each energy has had a chance to dominate and both have proven to be unworkable.
