Spiritual energy relates to a persons dominate energy pattern. Having feminine energy does not mean being female, it means one possesses the gifts or talents of the feminine vibration. In the simplest of terms, feminine energy is the thinking side of nature, masculine energy is the "do" or physical side of nature. Example: Psychic gifts are predominately a feminine energy, but spiritual healing gifts are predominately masculine.
