Mysticism is feminine if it doesn't lead to objective knowledge. Eg Parmenides, Plato, Shankara. Knowledge is beyond representation and intensity.

Mysticism is an encounter with the eternal feminine; it’s not feminine as in something that’ll turn you gay.

Knowledge and representation are two names for the same thing in my mental cartography. They’re both schemes superimposed on intensity

Knowledge I mean it in a metaphysical sense: it is the same as Being, the first and only true act. Or more simply knowledge of Self (Self knowing in itself).

Metaphysics and self-knowledge aren’t also schemas superimposed on intensity/matter? That’s how it looks to me. I would say Heidegger reifies these particular abstractions; but I’m sure you disagree.
