The principle of Gender.
As in the Kyabalion, "Gender is in everything; everything has its Masculine and Feminine Principles; Gender manifests on planes."
So, I translate that in regards to this topic as understanding that even males who are filled with masculine traits, do have some feminine, and females have more feminine traits than masculine. Therefore - Working together we accomplish more than could be done alone. Humans are social creatures, and the role of gender often helps to balance the traits of one another.
I have found Hermetic philosophy to be very interesting thus far.
As from what I've noticed in my studies:
All things come well when a balance is in place. The mind of a male often think differently than that of a female- a balance between the two is often nice. Both are equal, yes. Yet both are different. Like yin and yang we have the male and the female. The two genders of humanity are symbols of procreation just as when chaos and order/light and dark energies come together in equal amounts pave the way for the ultimate goal of any alchemist or alchemist-to-be - enlightenment. Therefore, who is not to say that the sentiments of masculine and feminine thought processes can create better results when they come together?
Yes, I realize I repeated myself twice in that post, but I am eccentric like that. lol.
I agree with you anyhow.
Power is a tool, an arbitrary concept. It is not an end, it is not a beginning but rather the ultimate translation of cause and effect. Power is the essence of which transcends man and is ever present in the cosmic forces of nature. Only through consciousness can power be wielded and it can be just as positive or neutral in purpose as it can be negative.
