Eucharist - the union of the masculine and feminine principles
"The Eucharist and marriage are two sacraments that celebrate the union of the masculine and feminine principles, thanks to which life is perpetuated from the highest to the lowest level of Creation. The difference between the two is that marriage primarily concerns the physical plane and social life, whereas the Eucharist—the communion with the body and blood of Christ represented by bread and wine—concerns the spiritual plane and the inner life. But the symbolism is the same, and it is found at the beginning and at the end of Jesus’ mission.
According to the Gospel of Saint John, Jesus performed his first miracle at Cana in Galilee where he had been invited to a wedding: he changed water into wine. That Jesus attended a wedding and performed his first miracle there shows that his view of this ceremony was very different from that of most people. And the last act Jesus performed before his death was to institute the Eucharist. How can we fail to see that all of Jesus’ Teaching rests on the knowledge of these two principles?"Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov
