God - both masculine and feminine
Christians recite, ‘In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost’* and they never seem surprised that there is no mention of a feminine principle in this trinity. Yet we cannot help but wonder. When you hear, ‘father and son’ – words that evoke the notion of a family – is it not strange that the third member of this family should be the Holy Ghost? What kind of family has no mother? The Kabbalists are right when they teach that God has a wife, whom they call Shekhinah. Christians must accept the existence of this cosmic principle, the feminine dimension of the creative principle. The being that we call God – and that Christianity sees as a masculine force – is, in reality, both masculine and feminine. Before there can be creation or manifestation, there must be polarization, that is, the presence of a masculine principle and a feminine principle. In order to manifest, God has to be both masculine and feminine. This is what was also taught in the Orphic initiations: God is male and female.
