Here is quoted Mr. G. Arundale in his book Kundalini: an Occult Experience.
   
  "It seems that the root of the word is the verb kund, which signifies "to burn". This is the vital meaning, for Kundalini is Fire in its aspect of burning. But we have a further explanation of the word in the noun kunda, which means a hole or a bowl. Here we are given an idea of the vessel in which the Fire burns. But there is even more than this. There is also the noun kundala, which means a coil, a spiral, a ring. Here we are given an idea as to the way in which the Fire works, unfolds. Out of all these essential derivatives the word Kundalini is born, giving creative femininity to the Fire, Serpent-Fire as it is sometimes called, the feminine creative power asleep within a bowl, within a womb, awakening to rhythmic movement in up-rushing and downpouring streams of Fire. It is a word signifying the feminine aspect of the creative force of evolution, which force in its specialized and more individual potency lies asleep, curled up as in a womb, at the base of the human
 spine. Its awakening is fraught with the utmost danger, indeed disaster, save as the individual concerned is in a position to keep it under full control. And such power to control comes only when the higher reaches of the evolutionary way are being approached, reaches still out of sight as regards the vast majority of mankind."

  If it´s the feminine aspect, what´s the other one? And what´s the source of both? I think the clue is related to that answer.
   If we understand Kundalini as a siddhi.. It does not matter higher or lower. It is not relevant from a "spiritual" point of view. If it is a Fohatic power, a diferentiation of it, "one of the Forces of Nature", we have "to pursue" Fohat, going to its fountain.  And if Fohat... is not and independent force... Vedanta says: There is only One Reality.
   
  Best...
