DAY 245: SPIRITUAL SUNDAY
Discovering Your Yin and Yang Energies

In Taoist philosophy, everything has an equal and opposite reaction. (Remind you of physics?) Yin and yang are the opposing Tao forces. Yin is passive, negative, and yet nourishing. Yang is the dominant, aggressive, and consuming force. Men were thought to have more yang than yin, and women more yin than yang, with each gender possessing some of the attributes of both. Sex, it was thought, helped a man and a woman keep their yin and yang balanced.

In more recent times, some men have searched for their inner femininity. Usually they were the men who were already in touch with it. Today we question whether the alpha woman can be satisfied by the beta man.

You’ve been exploring your dominant and submissive sides in some of the daily activities in these pages. Today, pick up your sex journals. Write about how you see yourselves and each other in yin and yang terms. Are there areas you’ve opened up and would like to explore more fully?

What would Lord Yang and Lady Yin like to do in bed that they haven’t done yet?
