The butch aspect is that yin and yang (for want of a better term) of female and male as a butch that for me, is light within. The anima and animus and the past archetypes connected to me in that collective unconscious. I doubt I will ever be able to explain this outside of myself. That's OK, maybe it isn't meant for outside understanding. Maybe that is what spirituality really is, personal.
I want to nourish this aspect of myself more in retirement. Travel is the key.... going to where ancient souls began and world beliefs still live on. Learning more about Native American spirituality here is also key.
I don't really have any feelings about a deity, per se. Just energy and it is female and male energy that just cannot be separated. It must coexist.

I have similar notions. I think masculine and feminine are moving toward a blend that is more than coexisting. The "energy" nourishes, thrives, blends, expresses as one, the same.
I spend much time talking about and thinking as to why we attach gender based labels to our behaviour, thinking, emotions, creativity and so on. I see my gender as an expression of my evolving, "peeling the onion". (Keep in mind that "the onion" is unique to each individual.) It's ironic that the more I move into a masculine expression, the more my feminine consciousness and expression grew, opened up.
