Reconnect To Your Deep Feminine Power to Feel Confident, Wildly Worthy, Balanced & In Flow!
I remember several years ago listening to a webinar on women’s wisdom, and the speaker brought up the menstrual cycle. She spoke about the inherent wisdom and intelligence of the menstrual cycle, and how it gives us a flow that we can follow in our lives, yet I’ve noticed in modern society that we attempt to live way against this flow by pushing and forging and producing at ALL times of the month, essentially ignoring our bodies when they are asking for rest. When I heard her share this, something deep inside me woke up.
We experience a natural process in our bodies that has the potential to create and grow new life. Our bodies know exactly what to do to prepare for this, and exactly what to do whether we’re creating babies or not, and yet we act as if this process is such a burden on us, as if our wombs (uteruses) and bodies need to adhere to modern life, instead of the other way around.
In the ancient times, women deeply revered their wombs (uteruses) as mysterious and magical portals of creation. They understood the womb in an energetic, spiritual, and esoteric way, in addition to the physiological way. They lived their lives in total flow with their menstrual cycles, resting and taking a break from normal society during their periods, and utilizing that time to listen and receive psychic insights from the Divine.
There was a point in history, thousands and thousands of years ago, where the patriarchal matrix was installed on humanity, and the feminine began its descent into being ignored, repressed, looked down on, and devalued.
This is when women’s sensuality was divorced from women’s love, and when spirituality and sexuality separated. The religious societies that were birthed around that time taught the people that sensuality and sexuality were wrong, dirty, shameful, and to be feared. The same went for femininity. If you notice the story of Adam & Eve in the Garden of Eden, the story has been interpreted to blame and shame women for their seductive ways, because of their otherworldly wisdom and sensual power. Women were essentially taught that the only way to be seen as honorable and respectful was to take on the Virgin archetype, focused solely on love, purity, mothering, and caring for others.
The issue here is that sexuality cannot truly be removed from our nature, and so by being taught little to nothing about it, and by shaming it, we are taught to repress a huge part of nature, which causes issues like deep-seated rage and resentment. We were created as sexual beings, and sexual energy is the strongest and most powerful energy that exists—it’s the energy that creates life—and so the attempt to remove it only makes it come out in twisted, and unhealthy ways.
Women were taught to either completely ignore their sexuality and sensuality, or to keep it a secret, and neither of these teachings involved helping women understand how sacred this energy is, or how to properly channel it for strong health & vitality.
During this time of feminine descent, women were also cut off from their wombs (uteruses) in an esoteric/energetic/spiritual way, which caused women to be cut off from their true wisdom, femininity, and power. Womb wisdom was no longer taught or revered, and the magic of the menstrual cycle was diminished—menstrual periods became seen as gross, and to be hidden and ignored. Women were essentially taught to hate and be angry at the fact that they were born as women.
In my many years of study in the realms of femininity, womb wisdom, energy healing & sacred sexuality, I’ve noticed that even just hearing the story of how things were in the ancient times, hearing the story of how and why the feminine became repressed, and hearing the story of how our sexuality became separate from our love and spirituality, have allowed me to re-awaken the parts of my femininity that I previously had no connection to, and that I had no awareness of repressing within myself. This has shown me that this wisdom, this truth, is buried deep in my cells, deep in my bones, deep in my soul, and that regardless of the attempted repression throughout these thousands of years, my soul always remembers the truth of the Whole Feminine.
I have a feeling yours does, too.
We are now at a time in society where we are ready to hear these stories and to remember our true power and wisdom. I know this because it’s coming up, and because more and more women are jumping at the chance to hear it, study it, and experience more of the teachings, methods, exercises, thought processes and lifestyle choices that were commonplace in the ancient times, when the feminine was still whole and empowered. I call this a reclamation, or reclaiming of, our feminine power, wisdom, and sensuality. All of it already exists and is accessible to us, we’ve just needed to see and understand that it’s there, and re-learn how to work with it.
I believe that essentially all the issues that women face today, that keep us feeling repressed, unworthy, in lack, disempowered, weak, burnt out, overthinking, powerless, anxious, depressed, disconnected, tricked, and manipulated, all stem from our disconnection to our womb wisdom (the esoteric/spiritual way of understanding the womb), and our deep feminine power (the sensual/sexual side that we’ve been taught to repress).
I believe if we want to feel liberated, expressed, wildly worthy, abundant, strong, empowered, balanced, energized, clear, powerful, calm, grounded, sexy, connected, wise, and intuitive, we need to study these ancient teachings and ancient ways, learn to work with our feminine anatomy in an esoteric/emotional/spiritual way, and learn how to bring intention and spirituality back into our sexuality.
If you’re someone who is newer to these concepts, and you’re feeling the call deep in your soul to start diving in, and reconnecting with the parts of yourself you may not have even known you were disconnected from, here are 3 simple ways you can start your journey:
Track your menstrual cycle, either in an app or in your calendar. Mark down every time you get your period, and notice how you feel in the days/week leading up to it, how your feel during it, and how your feel right after it. You’ll likely notice a shift in your energy and emotions before, during, and after. You may also notice that you’re much more intuitive and psychic during your period. Write down all the seemingly random thoughts and ideas you receive during this time, and then make plans to act on them during the ovulation period of your cycle, where you’ll likely have lots more energy! If you don’t currently get your period, you can work with the moon cycle instead. Consider the New Moon as the period time of the cycle, and the Full Moon as the ovulation time of the cycle.
Meditate on your pelvic space. Sit or lie down, place your hands over your lower abdomen, and close your eyes. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Continue breathing deeply and slowly, and focus your awareness on your lower abdomen, where your hands are resting. Become aware of the aliveness that you can sense in this part of your body, and see if you can tune in to a more subtle level of awareness in this part of your body, and notice any and all sensations you can feel here. Imagine that all the nerves and cells in this part of your body are waking up, and imagine sending loving energy to all the tissues in this part of your body. If you’re familiar with the chakras, imagine tuning in with your root and sacral chakras, turning them on, and balancing them.
Set an intention for your next sexual experience. Next time you have a sexual experience, whether solo or with a partner, set an intention for the experience beforehand. This could be anything you want, and could be an intention for how you want to feel, what you want to focus on, what you want to be aware of, the love you want to send to your body and/or your partner, the vibe you want to experience, etc. Reconnect with your intention after the experience is over, and notice how it affected your experience, and how it added a new layer of awareness to your experience. Play around with this each time you embark on a sexual experience!
