Eros Alchemy is…

EROTICISM & TANTRA EXPLAINED

The term Erotic derives from the Greek word “Eros,” which means love.

It’s the energy of Love. Erotic energy exists in all living beings; it’s what moves and shakes us. It’s one of the most powerful energies we possess. Without it, there would be no life, connection, or contrast to feel and be in this human experience.

The term Tantra is derived from “Tan,” which means expansion, and “Tra,” which means liberation. Tantra brings our individual consciousness to the infinite consciousness – God, spirit, universe, or however you’d prefer to call it. This is something we can experience through many different forms of connection: orgasm, meditation, breath worth, etc.

The understanding of the connection experienced during orgasm illuminates the importance of Sacred Sexuality and choosing our partners and how powerful, beautiful, and sacred that experience is.

What I share in my classes and workshops is deepening the connection and awareness within yourself first, healing and moving trapped energy held in the body, and creating deeper honor, respect, and passionate love for Yourself, and everything about you, which evolves into you sharing this in partnership with others. This shared experience of connection takes us to higher levels of consciousness and liberation.

To me, that is everything. And my purpose in teaching these practices is to liberate women into their erotic tantric, energetic bodies. To remember what it’s like to be fully embodied. Waking up to what will connect them to the beautiful, infinite love that is everything.

FEMININE & MASCULINE ENERGY

Masculine and Feminine love exists within all of us.

The beauty of this is men and woman can discover the depths of whichever side they primarily navigate from, and from there find ways to cultivate a healthy balance of both energies. Just because a man is a man, does not mean he can’t be balanced in his feminine. In fact, that is one of the most beautiful aspects of a man, in my perspective; to see a man comfortable in his skin in this way, and confident in his wholeness. Likewise, a woman confident in her masculine finds herself in a powerful place to be; attuned to her inner strength.

For a long while in history, people were expected to play into the role of whichever sex they were assigned at birth. If you were a man, you were masculine. If you were a woman, you were feminine. In more modern eras, this energy shifted to a place of hyper-masculinity in both men and woman, the mentality being that this system is the only way by which to achieve productivity and success. However, in the past few years, things have been shifting once again. In today's day and age, we are learning that when we are balanced in our yin and yang, masculine and feminine, we realize our equilibrium and reach the heights of our inner power.

From this state of balance, we are more precise with our choices and emotions, we make better decisions with clarity, and we experience a more abundant life.

HISTORY & CULTURAL PRACTICES

Eroticism is not limited to concepts of sex and sexuality, as we associate it with here in the West.

It’s connected to life itself. Prana, life force energy. It pre-dates our modern understanding of what it means to be sexy and erotic, concepts that are most commonly depicted in the porn and advertisement industries today. I believe that once we are embodied, we are untouchable, we are in our power and aligned to our truth, so there is no question you just know.

Over the centuries, we have lost the understanding about connection and sex but rather suppressed the feminine energy, which exists within all genders. The West and the Patriarchy scattered the diving feminine, with the use of shame, control, changing calendars and ignoring Mother Earth’s natural cycles. And for the men to make them strong they must not have feelings and emotions. This is what we know. However, this not the natural order.

This powerful practice was better understood by ancient cultures and civilizations, most of which were governed by Matriarchal rule. Despite how it may sound, the Matriarchy is an egalitarian system, not oppressively lead by females in the way that the Patriarchy is oppressively male-lead.

In Native American culture they understood the sacred knowledge of the women that is their intuition, or pure connection to source. The women could connect to spirit, create new life, evolve the village, and lead communities with balance. For this reason, boys of the village were raised exclusively by women until puberty, so that before they became hunters and warriors, they would have that balance, foundation of love, nurturing, and spiritual connection. To quote Russell Means, the late Lakota writer and activist, “Until you have known a woman, you haven't known life.”

That is a way of life we need to go back to, because some men and women of this world have a hard time understanding how to be sensitive and loving, or deal with their emotions with balance. This erotic activation work is raising awareness and power of women and men, bringing back the love and understanding. The understanding that what is in your heart goes out into the world; that is power.

IMPORTANCE OF EROTICISM TODAY

Erotic alchemy practice is a potent way to activate inner power and manifest desired realities.

The taboo and suppression of sexuality and eroticism has continued for centuries as a way to dim the power that is held within this activation. The power inside of us that has been dormant for years is becoming more and more awakened each day, which starts with finding that sensual sweet spot within, the confidence that powers your will to do anything.

Erotic practices help women and men rediscover this connection to source, life, and sensuality. Bringing awareness to the body and connection to spirituality in this human experience is a form of Awakening. It is feeling empowered into the senses of who you are. It is the direct experience of divinity that is within you. This connection to the infinite consciousness is the powerful and calm awareness from which you manifest your life’s desires.
