A Note From Our Founder

The Call To Initiation

Amir Khalighi, Founder of Embodied Masculine™

"Modern culture and society have unsupported, suppressed, distorted, and stifled the proper expression, evolution, and embodiment of natural masculine energies. It has made men feel disconnected from themselves, their counterparts, and the Nature World. Young men yearn for masculine presence, guidance, and mentorship from an early age. When there are no elders in the home or community to bring it to them, they have little choice but to seek it elsewhere. We end up with uninitiated men following other uninitiated men looking for answers in a society driven by values of materialism, fame, internalized misogyny, and unconscious contribution to colonial norms, feeding their egos and starving their souls. ......"

Jungian Archetypal Psychology

Archetypes Of The Embodied Mature Masculine

KING

Order, vision, and blessing — the sovereign presence that holds a calm, generative center for oneself and others.

WARRIOR

Discipline, courage, and right action — the energy that protects what is sacred and carries vision into the world.

MAGICIAN

Awareness, insight, and transformation — the initiate who sees beneath the surface and wields sacred knowledge.

LOVER

Feeling, connection, and aliveness — the energy that keeps a man in relationship to his body, passion, and the Great Mother.

Red / White / Black

The Three-Stage Evolution Of The Divine Masculine

Fire in Red
Stage One

Fire In Red

A man in the state of Red is symbolic of a typical teenage boy — uninhibited passion, rebellion, self-gratification, aggression, and a desire for power. Out of control and dangerous, yet a source of great vitality that only needs a channel of greater maturity to hone itself. Through training by elders, this energy can be honed so it does not own him.

Learn More
Altruistic in White
Stage Two

Altruistic In White

In White, he desires to save the world from all its ills. He longs for truth and justice, and wishes to be good and do good — an idealist. Yet he lacks the awareness to notice that many of the ills he wants to save the world from are projections of his own unconscious traumas and desires.

Learn More
Purpose in Black
Stage Three

Purpose In Black

A man in the state of Black "eats" his shadows and comes to a level of acceptance about his own flaws. Shadow work is not merely introduced but digested by the masculine. He surrenders control to the acceptance of his limitations and the inevitability of death — and becomes trustworthy, powerful, and compassionate.
