Scientists and mystics throughout history have realized that every
human being is a carrier of opposite and complementary life
energies. Given a variety of names -- yin and yang, poetic and
rational, emotional and intellectual, feminine and masculine --
these energies exist in everyone, regardless of sex. Androgyny
involves recognizing the eternal flux of these opposing energies
within us.
On a journey that takes us through Taoism, Gnosticism, Kabbalah,
Alchemy, Astrology, Tibetan Tantra, Kundalini Yoga, and the works
of Plato, Freud, and Jung, June Singer shows how crucial awareness
of the androgynous soul has been to those inquiring into the
mysteries of human nature. Consciousness of our own androgyny can
lead to a new sense of personal unity within the larger universe.
It is no accident that men and women today are expressing
previously undeveloped sides of their natures.
One of the most thorough investigations of the subject in the
current literature, Androgyny is full of psychological and
spiritual insights that speak to today's sexual confusion. Singer
shows how we can embrace both complementary and contradictory
attitudes toward sex and gender. Finally, she proposes a range of
choices by which we can identify ourselves, secure that the
masculine/feminine interaction within each of us is not only normal
but the dynamic factor in our wholeness.
