The true role of our energy is to gain personal power and operate from it at all times. Today, in many situations, people loose their personal power in relationships between boss- subordinate, clientcustomer, colleague-colleague, teacher-student, husband-wife, parent-child, Friend-Friend, etc. Often in these relationships someone plays the role of the oppressor while the other plays the role of the oppressed. But this is a great weakness in the relationship and it undermines people's capacity to be their authentic sieves and accomplish what they want in their lives. We need personal power to hold our self-esteem and go forward to succeed in our pursuits. Human relationships often deteriorate through these power struggles and ultimately both, whether they are playing the role of an oppressor or the oppressed, lose their personal power. Personal power can be seen as the result of interplay between masculine and feminine forms of power. Both these forms of power can co-exist in both men and women. Both feminine and the masculine forms of power need to be honoured and expressed for beautiful presence and creation in the world. We have to gain a deeper understanding the characteristics of masculine and feminine forms of power.
