There is a favourite story of the Hopi, who once lived under the earth
and there was an overpopulation problem.
The Hopi men did nothing about it but then the women
became so intolerable that the Hopis made up their mind to climb a level higher.
Then they settled again and everything went right,
and then again there was overpopulation, and the men did nothing.
They would have gone on like that forever if the women
hadn’t become so impossible, making scenes from morning till night.
Then the men got going. That is still true.
And that is why the doctrine of a lady,
who should never raise her voice and always be like the Virgin Mary,
really causes her husband to remain asleep about his anima problem.
If she doesn’t make a thunderstorm from time to time,
he generally doesn’t wake up,
he just doesn’t see. – Marie-Louise von Franz,
The Cat A Tale of Feminine Redemption
She who will no longer be silenced.
This relationship between masculine and feminine,
man and woman, husband and wife,
starts within the self and She is stirring
and waking the masculine world.
