The etheric is the most overlooked aspect of our human lives. Ignorance of the etheric plane comprises much of what makes us spiritually and emotionally retarded. The etheric is the plane of energy and life force. It is vitality and animus. The etheric is not human-centric. To see it as revolving around humankind in any way is naive. That said, etheric starvation is the most common human malady of our time, and our species is responsible for most etheric devastation that exists on the planet at the moment.
Two types of etheric flows made the Universe — etheric yin and etheric yang. Yang expands outward away from itself and yin draws inward towards its own center. Yang embarks upon expeditions and seeks receptive eggs. Yin is the center of gravity and seeks to pull the outside towards itself like a magnet. The sun shines his light far and wide. The moon reflects light while captivating the oceans to follow her in the form of tides. Yin contains yang within itself and yang contains yin within itself.
A plant-xample
All fruits are the seed bearing part of the plant. Cucumbers and squash are fruits just as much as apples and strawberries are fruits. Fruit itself is very feminine or yin, because like yin, it carries seeds. When we trace fruit back to the flower from whence it came, the flower is also yin. Flowers are receptive on the physical plane, but the means they employ as lures, scent and color, are yang on the etheric plane. Pollen is the floral equivalent of sperm. Plants thrust yang parts out of their flowers called stamens covered with pollen. These stamens surround a receptive female organ called a pistil. Once the flower has been pollinated, it retreats into a yin state, drawing into itself and encapsulating what will become the seed or seeds. Petals fall off, the stem hardens and becomes brittle, and walls go up surrounding the fertilized pollen. The former flower swells around the seed with padding known as fruit. The seed is encased in robes of feminine flesh. Yang then takes over again as the fruit matures, expanding the flesh outward and falling off the branch, sending out scent and color messages that beckon “eat me”. The fruit is eaten, either by landing in an animal’s receptive, yin mouth or by rotting in fertile, yin soil. The fruit digests away and the yang essence hidden in the seed springs to life, becoming another plant.
You’ll notice that yin and yang are not only crucial to the life process, they are everywhere. One cannot exist without the other. Thoth Hermes Trismegistus left us with the statement “as above, so below”. Every natural law works as a function of fractals or ripples, and we meat bags of mostly water have but one hope in learning esoteric knowledge: we have to figure out how to recognize patterns.
Children and old folks
I recently saw a TikTok ad that was designed to make me feel insecure and diseased because I am past menopause. The ad featured a pretty, forty-something woman who was probably AI speaking gibberish about losing one’s cookies. Against my better judgement, I commented “Oh honey, menopause is amazing. I don’t miss my periods and I don’t miss being young.” In short, “You have no power over me”. Yes, menopause sucks for those who think looking 21 at age 51 is a good idea. Once the sex hormones start to wane, age starts writing itself all over the face and body. Things sag and wrinkle. Freckles, spots, and moles darken and enlarge. Perky muscle tone, once effortless, becomes a real chore that requires real effort. In other words, the body succumbs to yin forces and begins to visibly die. In a civilization that denies and hates the Divine Feminine that rules all the yin aspects of life, aging is cause for a freak out. Getting old is considered a disease, and the mad scientist transhumanists would like to cure it for all eternity, never grokking that for the new to be born, the old must wither and die. All of science has thrown itself at the rejection of death. Science is now a game of trying to go around Nature. “Surely we can improve where Nature fails!” they rally, dragging along a collection of septic perversions like the N.I.C.E. camp in C.S. Lewis’s That Hideous Strength. Science worships demons at this point; they don’t even need the Goetia. Those who are terrified of aging and death are terrified by those who are unafraid of aging and death. Like the Skeksis in Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal, they have become monsters in the quest for eternal youth, never understanding they already have it, if only they could allow their bodies to age and die without getting upset.
Old people are naturally yin on the etheric. Once we die, we are completely yin on the etheric. Women are etheric males and men are etheric females during adulthood. I am very much a woman, and like most women, I am an etheric male. This means that I dump my copious yang energy on the etheric. My etheric masculinity tends to take the form of traditional woman’s work such as teaching, tidying, cooking, and healing. Men are more forceful or yang on the physical plane, and this is why they are physically tougher, larger, and frankly uglier than women. They are better at fighting, construction, and what Mike Rowe called “dirty jobs”. Men are yin on the etheric, which makes them enthusiastic recipients of etheric yang. The key to a man’s heart is through his stomach, especially if he lacks the etheric yang talent to cook himself a decent meal.
All children begin physical life as females in the womb. One fact that modern science forgets and overlooks out of ignorance is that physical females are etheric males. We all begin life in utero as yin beings with yang energy. Children are only born of women because the yin being is the part that physically splits off when conception occurs. The yin creates the fruit and the yang, the little used-up spermatozoon, provides the life force. Children are technically female until puberty no matter what their physical sex, which makes them etheric males. Boys are indistinguishable from girls until sex hormones break the spell of childhood. Unless there is precocious puberty, a nine year old boy looks and sounds like his female peers.
Children under attack
As much as media likes to wax poetic about the sanctity of infants and children, no group has been more utterly thrown under the bus. Infants and children are yang on the etheric, being essentially female on the physical plane. There is always a spectrum, of course, and a hyperactive child who loves bright colors and yelling is more yang on the etheric than the quiet, bookworm child. Unsurprisingly, children need lots of play, exploration, and testing of the new.
The current predicament of our civilization is to starve en masse on the etheric, and that is why hordes are drawn to the abundant yang energy of children like moths to a flame. Pedophilia has never been so astonishingly brutal and commonplace. Pedophilia is a method of cracking the child like an etheric egg and slurping down the resulting energy.
Girls will be boys
Whether an XX chromosome person (a woman) tries to appear as an XY person (a man) or it is the other way around, transexualism mainly results in an erasure of maleness. Transexualism is rooted in fear of the Sacred Masculine. When a biological female attempts to transition into a male, she invariably ends up as a beta. Her fantasy expectation is to be the hot guy and her reality is to be a balding, potbellied, wide-hipped creep with a micropenis. She will always be a masculine-looking woman, and there are plenty of those who did not need to amputate their breasts or get a hysterectomy to achieve the same vibe. When a biological male attempts to transition into a female, he also invariably ends up as a beta. Femininity is far more than its obvious signs. I am all woman, but I don’t have large breasts or lush eyelashes. His fantasy expectation will to become a bombshell of patchworked girlie-girl stereotypes and his reality will be to look like an effeminate man.
Transexuals believe they can achieve vibrant, attention-getting, florescent colors via a sex change and they routinely end up the same shade of grubby beige. The reason for the failure of transexuals is the etheric plane. The polarity of etheric maleness crashing against physical and astral femininity is what makes men manly and women womanly. A man without a hyper-feminine etheric body, whether or not he is trans, presents as an unattractive dullard. A woman without copious etheric maleness will present as butch whether she likes it or not. When a person alters his or her hormones and/or amputates and reshapes body parts, their etheric body is diminished and etheric starvation becomes acute as there is lessened polarity to replenish it.
Modernity, maleness, and feminization
Industrialization and its onslaught of chemicals has resulted in large numbers of effeminate men and masculine women without the assistance of trans drugs and surgeries. When petroleum toxins are introduced into the environment, feminization is an observable scientific result in animal populations. Plasticizers known as phthalates have a nasty habit of not biodegrading. When plasticizers stick around, they wreak havoc by mimicking estrogen. Balls don’t drop and sperm are damaged and few. Girls and women don’t escape either — periods start early and polycystic ovary syndrome makes them a living hell. Girls are not developing into feminine women with yang etheric bodies. Boys are not developing into masculine men with yin etheric bodies. Sex is not as binary as it used to be, thanks to plastic chemical damage. Sperm counts have never been lower. The average young man of today has the sperm count of an 80 year old Victorian gentleman with mojo (or lack thereof) to match.
When men remain trapped in perpetual childhood due to a failure to develop their maleness, it is called neotony. Neotony is considered desirable in women as it makes them more childlike and feminine — do yourself a favor and avoid plugging neotony into a search engine — but in men, it is less desirable.
Release a domesticated pig into the wild and it will develop tusks, a bristly coat, and a tougher hide. Within a few generations, the pink piggies from the farm will spawn only fierce, wild boars.
Men have become soft and pink, eternally juvenile, and insecure. They will remain in the state of Puer Aeternis until initiation rites are brought back into vogue, whether by choice or by force. Harsh circumstances and having to bust ass from an early age (along with a resistance to plastic chemicals) forces the maturation process in humans as well as pigs and other animals, making a man larger, tougher, and more potent on the physical plane while feminizing him on the etheric, a.k.a. making him a chick magnet.
Women have become tough ballbusters, unable to rest in their femininity. This is a condition of being forced to take on men’s roles as men either opt or are forced into a state of weakness. Women fake neotony quite well and the damage of etheric starvation is not as obvious, but make no mistake, it is still there. Due to an excess of estrogen-impersonators in the environment, girls go through puberty at eight and nine instead of twelve and fourteen. Instead of invigorating the male etheric body, early puberty dilutes it, an that is why so many girls are shiftless, confused, desperate, and depressed during what should be a vital, joyous time of their lives.
As I have often said, etheric starvation will not truly abate until the last computer sputters the last line of code and the last plane falls out of the sky. There are also many plastic chemicals that will be around for at least ten thousand years, making hell for human beings. Modernity is a bitch and we are here, swimming in it. Science has completely fallen short of understanding the energy plane, dismissing it as woo. Yet the energy or etheric plane holds the key to all scientific understanding. Energy is everything and everything is energy, and even G.I. Joe admits that knowing is half the battle.

These would make it much easier for shy teenage boys to hide their erections. Plus pants can be worn underneath when it is chilly. I wear skirts almost all the time. They flare from the waist and hang either slightly below my knees or at my calves. They are by far the most comfortable type of clothing.

Men's caftans are traditional in several countries. Sarong are the same garment for men and women, just worn at the armpits for women, and at the waist for men. Greek military *still* use evzones. If that's not a cute dress I don't know what is.

Once you start looking at old traditional styles, pants are a modern innovation originating in horse-riding cultures. Literally everyone else had some kind of robe/skirt/dress/toga thing going on for both sexes. It's more hygienic and more economical with fabric. Nobody portrays Jesus or the Apostles in pants, and our priests' robes are basically just Byzantine mens' formalwear:

Dresses for everybody!

Date: 2025-03-05 07:53 pm (UTC)I think you mean the bottom of the abdomen instead of the waist. I don't know if there's a specific term for "bottom of the abdomen" in the same way that the waist is the part of the abdomen between the ribcage and the pelvis. The separation between the shirt and the trousers in men's clothing happens at the bottom of the abdomen, in contrast to women's clothing, which happens at the waist.
Also dresses today start flairing out from the waist, none start flairing out from the hip.

These days the only men who wear such clothing are drag queens, crossdressers, and transgender people, and if parents tried to do to their male children the same thing that they did in the 1700s, they would be accused by society of being groomers.

Date: 2025-03-08 05:52 am (UTC)It would explain the lesbian bed death phenomenon though - if lesbians are etheric females and oral sex drains the energy out of lesbians, it shouldn't be too surprising if they stop having oral sex.
