Quince
Themes: Balance, integration.
“I access a full spectrum of masculine AND feminine capacities within me.”
We all have full expression of both masculine AND feminine
energies within, even while many of us incarnate in the world presenting as one
or the other. Others are more at home with their balance of yin and yang,
unattached to presenting themselves as either “male” or “female”. Quince spirit
medicine helps to harmonize yin and yang forces within, supporting the marriage
of these aspects that we tend to perceive as contrasting. The influence of
Quince creates a living, whole connection between loving care AND driving power
so that we can engage both capacities.
Particularly helpful for parents and teachers who are called to be loving AND
firm.
