Activate your feminine essence
Here I am sitting in my room, looking outside my window at the bright blue sky, grateful for the sun’s warmth, the sound of birds chirping and the vibrancy of the earth. We’ve finally entered March, the season of spring is beginning soon and the world is waking up from its deep slumber.
What a time to be alive!
As I feel into my body, I can sense how my energy levels are on the rise. My mind feels sharper, and my creative ideas are flowing more smoothly and frequently. This is why I love spring. That spark of colour feels like the relief that comes from seeing the light at the end of a very dark and long tunnel.
Spring is a splendid time to begin your connection with magic because you can see it literally all around you, the life force moving through ALL of creation, the world becoming its own muse as it creates a new heaven for this year of 2024. What once looked dead now is vibrating with aliveness, the birds and animals are migrating back to their homes and soon the sound of mating and the energy of kundalini will be at the forefront.
This sensual, nurturing, creative, and magnetic energy is called feminine energy. And no I am NOT talking about genders or your sex. I am talking about ENERGETICS. ALL humans have BOTH feminine and masculine energies within them. (yin and yang) this is supported by the universal law of polarity.
Today I am chatting with you on the topic of activating your feminine essence. So that you can FULLY connect to the part of you that dreams, and nurtures those dreams with your unique creative expression. Whether you are a man, a woman or in between this post is for you.
Now that we know what feminine energy is, let’s talk about why you need to activate it in your life!
Turning on your feminine essence will help you in alchemizing the pain and darkness of your winter experience into something that benefits your future. It will help you find your power as the creator of your own reality. Activating your right brain will support out of the box thinking and building new perspectives which manifests into a renewed sense of self. One that adds pleasure, peace, magnetism and softness into your life..
According to Scottish psychiatrist Iain McGilchrist evidence shows the right and left hemispheres actually amount to two brains. The right and left brains perform the same basic functions, but in very different ways. How we interpret and experience the world depends on whether those two brains are working in balance, or whether one is dominant or damaged. That, in turn, shapes the world we live in.
The left brain pays sharp attention to details and sorts and organizes people and things into neat, orderly categories but it doesn't understand relationships. It's the right brain that understands context and the big picture — our relationships with others and how we fit into a complex, non-linear world in which everything is connected.
In order to find peace, pleasure and fulfillment we need to be able to perceive a bigger perspective in life, to have creative expressions that help us make sense of the world, and to have the capacity to cultivate connections! Whether friendships, community, romantic partnerships.. These are fundamental human needs that we have been ignoring and undervaluing for way too long.
McGilchrist said "We behave like people who have right hemisphere damage.” and it’s probably because energetically we do have a damaged hemisphere. We all know the physical/ real life consequences of the patriarchy on women but do we know the effects of the patriarchy on the collective feminine energy? Can you even comprehend the level of pain the feminine has endured in the past millennia ? This is why it is important to pour into our feminine empowerment.
The left (masculine) brain treats the world as a simple resource to be exploited. It made us feel very powerful. It provided us with wealth. But our emphasis on it and neglect of the feminine (right brain) also made us lose touch with our ability to understand the world, to make sense of it, to feel satisfaction and fulfilment through our place in the world.
So what can you do to activate your feminine essence and ensure your ability to find fulfilment, peace, and pleasure?
It is very simple and straightforward! What is your creative expression? Photography? Design? Pottery? Music? Crafts? Do more of that! Create with no goals or expectations simply for the JOY of it. Because you LOVE to do it. Other things you can do is pampering your body with massages, sensual touches, orgasms and intentional pleasure ceremonies (Yes make it a big event) surround yourself with pastel colours, play around with soft textures like silks, furs and feathers. Get yourself some flowers. Be in nature. Connect with friends, go to community circles. Find spacescious, connect to peace in doing nothing. Basically romanticize your life.
When you make space for moments of deep peace, pleasure and fulfilment that comes from nurturing your feminine, you will find yourself thriving in all areas of your life because life stops feeling like a burden. You begin to move through the world with more love, appreciation and wonder. The same way you saw the world as a kid.. And what is more magical than going back to those simple days?
That is the gift of the feminine essence. Cultivating safety for your inner child to come out and explore the world with ALL your senses.
