Sacred Sensuality

So, I will jump right into a topic that can introduce so much vulnerability, which is an interesting first post to write, but nevertheless, I am jumping in!

This post is actually written as a response to another blog entry that I read the other day from Mindy Tsonas, in her post called Wanton Spiritual Desire. The idea that really spoke to me through Mindy's words was the concept of creating from love and desire. Maybe the next question would be, 'What exactly are you creating?' and 'How does love and desire help you create anything?'

What exactly am I creating? Anything that the love and desire inspires me to create. It could be something I make with my hands, something that is written, a new exciting relationship unfolding, delicious food or even a photo collage of all the beauty that is experienced in one day. The possibilities are limitless. Creating from a place of passion, love and desire can produce the most amazing and spectacular results. It is pure magic presented to your senses in however it unfolds in that moment.

Tapping into the love and desire to assist in creating something magical...how is that accomplished? This is something that I am continuing to ponder in this moment. I was having a discussion with a friend recently about how to set the tone for that creativity to flow. My questions were along the lines of 'what elements need to be present for you to experience a deep and moving, spiritual connection with someone'. I think it really is different for everyone, what moves you to be inspired creatively in your sacred sensuality. For me, there are so many things that can push me toward that sacred space. It is hard to know which element to focus completely on and maybe it is best to just allow it to flow into being.

I decided to look toward my alchemy cards for a bit of inspiration. Asking the same question of myself as I embraced the cards and listening to what they wanted to speak to me.

I chose the card "Fierce".

What does FIERCE mean to me? I feel like I need to type that word in all caps because the word is so bold! Fierce is something that you are when you know that there are obstacles and possible negative scenarios, but you move forward anyway. You step into your truth with the confidence and inspiration behind you to go after that desire, fully and completely present in the moment.

I think it is amazing that I chose this card. This is exactly how I feel in this moment. Exactly. I feel like I am stepping into my truth boldly, going after the desires that fuel my motivation to love untamed. This desire touches the essence of who I am and those that are open to it will experience the love I have within me on the deepest of levels.

FIERCE.

So, I ask you...

What moves you to embrace your sacred sensuality?
