The term 'sacred masculine' refers to an understanding of masculinity as a spiritual force that exists both within and outside of human experience. It is seen as an expression of profound connectedness to the larger natural world and serves as a reminder of the power and potential of the masculine to channel compassionate, creative, and transformative energies. In this sense, the Sacred Masculine is not only an archetype of masculine energy, but also a tool for its conscious embodiment.
