Well my description is based on the definition of courting according to the dictionary. So yes I think the way you understand the word may be more beautiful, more positively oriented, more unconditional and more fitting with the INTENT of Ra and more in tune with what I would be doing in love as well. But it is not apparently the way humans have decided to use the word. I think what you describe is simply love on a human level and not courting. It is not that I don't understand the archetype or the meaning of courting it is more that the word is itself misinterpreted into what it actually means because it really does mean the distorted version of it. The way you describe courting in the context of a long term relationship seems more like nurturing, preserving, nourishing or carrying a relationship through time. Courting really is a word associated with the act of trying to attract the other towards you. So the question would be why would Ra be using the word courting if Ra is more than likely aware of the distorted idea associated with the word? Why would Ra use a term and mean something else?
I just think the analogy was not made to be all-encompassing and was perhaps fitting with the channeling group's experiences and that there is many other focuses that this archetype can contain. I mean for me I just have to ask myself do I think of my intuition as something that absolutely wants to be desired as badly as a woman can be at times? Certainly not but I understand how it is possible to nourish an harmonious relationship with my intuition by being all ears and curious about it at all times.
I also don't think it is a contradiction to seek love without resistance without trying to win something out of it. To me an harmonious relationship is the result of two naturally evolving vibrations that match in their similarities and contrasts in the most important emotional vibrations, mostly those expressed by the chakras. If it feels like hard work then it is not harmonious. In the context of an harmonious relationship it seems more like a gift than a victory. So more simply if I was attracted naturally to a feminine energy and realize that my natural presence makes her joyful I would be offering my being freely and unconditionally. That does not seem like courting to me.
