Masculine Waters And Feminine Waters

Rami Aloni wrote in The Jewish Magazine a splendid clear article about the Star of David that symbolises the interlacing of the masculine waters and the feminine waters. 

There are times when we, the Jewish people, try to initiate a contact to G-d and sometimes, just the opposite, it is G-d trying to arouse us. Like the relationship between a man and a woman, it could be the man who initiates the contact (or stimulation) with the women. In other situations it could be the woman who initiates the contact by arousing the man.
