Mastering Inner Polarity: The 4 Archetypes of Masculine and Feminine.

This weeks podcast is a powerful transmission from Chantelle shared at our Fundamentals of Tantra workshop in Perth. Chantelle guides us into the living map of inner polarity, where masculine and feminine energies, both light and dark, coexist as one unified whole.

Through the lens of the four archetypes: Light Masculine, Dark Masculine, Light Feminine, and Dark Feminine, you’ll discover how each aspect of your being carries a sacred gift and a shadow. This is where the real Tantra begins: not in transcending emotion or chasing stillness, but in mastering the dance between action and surrender, love and truth, creation and destruction.

This episode is a call to step beyond polarity into presence, to cultivate the spacious witnessing of the light masculine, the fierce clarity of the dark masculine, the tender heart of the light feminine, and the raw aliveness of the dark feminine. Together, they form the soul’s compass: a way of living that’s both grounded in purpose and drenched in feeling.

This conversation will illuminate how mastering your inner polarity changes everything, from how you love, to how you lead, to how you meet yourself in every breath.

Inside This Episode:

• What the four archetypes of masculine and feminine truly represent

• How to recognize when you’re polarized in one energy (and what to do about it)

• The difference between Light and Dark expressions — and why both are sacred

• Why meditation and movement are equally essential to awakening

• How to cultivate balance through practical Tantric tools

• The power of bringing compassion to your fire and presence to your softness

• Living from soul — the center point where all archetypes unite

There’s a freedom that comes when you stop trying to “be” one thing — and allow all of you to exist.

This is the path of inner mastery. The path of Tantra.

Top Quotes:

“Life isn’t just stillness — it’s the flow of both.”

“When we live from soul, we have access to it all — the dark, the light, the masculine, the feminine.”

“The work isn’t to choose a side. It’s to learn how to dance between them.”
