GENDER ON THE MENTAL PLANE: Duality of Mind and Hermetic Insights into Modern Psychology.

In this episode, we delve into the persistent and evolving concept of the duality of mind within the field of psychology, particularly focusing on the Hermetic Philosophy's perspective on Mental Gender. Over the past decade and a half, psychology has seen numerous theories on dual minds, such as Thomson J. Hudson's 1893 theory of "objective and subjective minds" and other variations like the "conscious and subconscious minds" or the "voluntary and involuntary minds." Despite their differences, all these theories share the core principle of the mind's duality.

However, from the standpoint of Hermetic Philosophy, these modern theories are not new discoveries but rather rehashes of ancient teachings. Hermetic Philosophy speaks of the Principle of Gender on the Mental Plane, explaining the dual mind through the concepts of the Masculine and Feminine Principles of Mind. The Masculine Principle is linked to the objective, conscious, voluntary, and active mind, whereas the Feminine Principle corresponds to the subjective, subconscious, involuntary, and passive mind.

The episode explains that while modern psychology has created varied theories about the dual mind, the Hermetic Teachings offer a more cohesive understanding through Mental Gender. According to these teachings, each individual has an "I" and a "Me," representing the Masculine and Feminine aspects of the mind, respectively. The "I" signifies the aspect of being, characterized by willpower and decision-making, while the "Me" represents the aspect of becoming, embodying feelings, emotions, and the capacity for mental creation and imagination.

Through the exploration of these dual aspects, the episode emphasizes the importance of understanding the interplay between the "I" and the "Me." The Feminine Principle generates new thoughts and ideas, but it requires the Masculine Principle's willpower to bring these creations into reality. This dynamic is seen in everyday life, from personal magnetism to public speaking and artistic performances.

The Hermetic Teachings provide a framework to comprehend psychic phenomena, such as telepathy, thought transference, and hypnotism. By understanding Mental Gender and Vibration, one can see how the Masculine Principle's energy influences the Feminine Principle in others, leading to mental impressions and suggestions.

Ultimately, this episode offers a master key to unlock the complexities of mental phenomena and psychic activity, illuminating ancient wisdom that clarifies and reconciles modern psychological theories. Through the lens of Hermetic Philosophy, listeners can gain a deeper understanding of the mind's dual nature and the universal principles governing mental influence and creation.
