Sexual energy is the source of all life and creativity. It is the basic resource which can be transmuted into life force energy and it is the energy from which we derive inspiration. Our bodies are abundant with vibrant, sexual energy – the natural energy of Creation. Some people are confused though about what sexual energy is and how to use it. Most people don’t realize that it can be utilized in our life for operations other than sex. Without proper use, sexual energy can build up and stagnate creating energy blocks and physical dysfunctions in the body. Or, it can overflow creating mental disturbances, addictions and obsessions. Because most people view sexual energy as something meant for sex only this energy is often underused, misused or abused. Some people who lack a partner to share intimate experiences with simply ignore their sexual energy because they feel it serves no immediate purpose in their life. Sometimes the arousal of sexual energy acts as a negative trigger for them that causes them to be in awareness that they are lacking a partner, causing them to feel sadness. When sexual energy is dampened it eventually dissipates and can cease to flow all together creating depression, anxiety or physical illness or ailments. Conversely, others who feel that sexual energy must always be acted upon may indulge that sensation through masturbation, pornography or sexual acts. If much of that sexual energy is channelled towards sexual conduct only, it can create an opposite effect of the desired outcome, and rather than diminishing the desire for sex it can actually increase buildup of sexual energy creating more desire. This can lead the individual to try to find more ways to “relieve” themselves of the discomfort of this incessant feeling. Eventually, the need for sexual “relief” can become addictive leading to obsessive masturbation, overindulgence of pornography, or sexually aggressive or forceful behaviour. Over a long period of time it may deplete the adrenal glands leaving a person fatigued, irritable, anxious, agitated, or aggressive. What people do not understand is that sexual energy is a creative life-force energy that needs to be expressed in healthy ways in order for us to feel fulfilled by it. When properly channelled, sexual energy can create beautiful things. Of course sexual energy is great when you have a partner that you can intimately share that energy with in a love making experience, but even then, you don’t want to overdo it there especially if one partner’s libido is lower than another’s. The excess energy must be channelled to other areas of one’s life. Sexual energy can be redirected into the arts like painting or poetry, or may be channelled into a physical activity such as a sport or recreation. But sexual energy can also be used to nurture the sick, elderly or young. You may be thinking, “Wait, what?! That’s perverse!” Let me explain. Since sexual energy is life-force energy it can be alchemized into pure, selfless love. Is creation itself not an act of Love? When we create we are inspired to bring something beautiful into this world whether it be a painting or a baby. In this way, we can utilize that same inspired love which has been stirred by our abundant sexual energy and channel it into a nurturing experience just as a mother does with her newborn baby. You see, when we redirect our sexual energy into other areas of our life it changes its nature. Or better said, it changes how we feel about its nature. Sexual energy is derived from the same loving energy that created you and all of life. Simply put, it is an energetic force that is vitalizing, passionate and nurturing and can be used to express the most real and intimate parts of our being through love, dance, song, art, sport, craft and a myriad of other ways! Utilizing sexual energy in this way helps to keep us feeling vibrant, alive, useful and youthful. So the next time you feel aroused by the infinite, loving, creative force inside of you, try channelling that energy up into your heart to expand into the infinite love of the universe, and then draw it up into your mind to see what thoughts stir inside of you besides sex. Tune into what life passions want to be expressed. What magical rhythms or beautiful rhymes? What joyful dance? What delicate touch or tender nurturing? Write about it, sing about it, or sprint on the beach about it. Whatever you choose, enjoy your sexual creative bliss! By MaRe'SAh First Mother & First Father in Divine Union of The Heart

Have you challenged yourself lately? Sometimes perceived obstacles can present unique challenges that ask us to learn and grow. About a year and a half ago I began searching for someone who could build a wooden case for me to hold my singing crystal pyramid. My first possibility came in the form of an antique salesman who doubled as a box builder by night. Despite his enthusiasm and promise to create something for me within a week, his promises quickly fell through. It then took me half a year more to find my second possibility. Yet again, despite the new builder's promise to create something quickly, he too fell off. So, there I was a year later with this unique challenge and opportunity to build my own carry case. After much humming, hawing and deliberation, I went for it! I made my measurements, purchased my wood from the hardware store, sought out unique brass fittings from antique shops and got started. Are you making progress? Sometimes on our path to discovery we can feel as though we get lost along the way. But are we making progress? As I was diligently constructing my singing crystal pyramid case, I came up against some road blocks. For one, I made a bunch of annoying mis-measurements that were just a fraction off, causing things to not be in alignment. After all of my hard work, things just didn’t line up. Sound familiar? After dealing with that issue I stood in the hardware store looking at a sea of nails for every purpose under the sun. I deliberated for about twenty minutes before choosing nails that I would eventually exchange for different ones. In my gut I felt that the new nails were too big and as it turned out my intuition was not only right (surprised?), but the original nails would have been just the right size for my project. Now, disaster was on my hands! I had hammered these long nails right through the box. So, what to do? I could have been really miserable about this but I recognized that it was necessary to be gentle with myself. I mean, I had no idea what I was doing and was basically winging this project. So I decided to step back, breathe, relax and ask myself, “Am I making progress?” “Am I learning, growing and being reminded to always trust my intuition?” The answer was a resounding “Yes!” “Why?” because with every setback I encountered along the way, I had to learn to work with it. Starting over was not an option. So instead, I was challenged to come up with creative solutions. For example, I had a great idea for placing scrap leather on the back of the box and some embossed wood trim around the other three sides to cover up all of the nail damage. Now, I was feeling more inspired than I did before! Is it ever complete? After two weeks of blood, sweat and tears, there was finally joy and much rejoicing at my mostly finished carry case. I say, “mostly finished” because I had resolved to temporarily (if ever) not put a clear coat on it, and I accepted that the fabric, cushioned lining I made was a wacky disaster. All and all, I just didn't care. It was as complete as it could be and absolutely beautiful in my eyes (but also maybe a little garish). So, I reached for my precious Singing Crystal Pyramid to place inside my grandiose case and what was I to find? A hairline crack! Ah! How could it be?! Nooooo!!! This, of course was the whole point of creating a case for it in the first place, to avoid any possible damage. Well, after my initial shock laughter burst from my mouth. Oh, the hilarity of it! After all the heart and soul I had put into this silly case, it had now been rendered useless! But does it matter? Perhaps I was taking it all a little too seriously. Some of you may wish to flick me on the nose when I say this, but it truly is the journey that matters and not necessarily the outcome. Sure, it would have been great to have an undamaged pyramid and an immaculate case to put it in, but either way, I had fun along the way and I learned a great deal. Plus, if I ever need to create a similar project it will be way easier next time. And besides, is it ever really complete? This journey that is, and anything we do along the way. There’s always ‘more’ we strive for. Once we attain or accomplish something, we look for bigger and better. So is it ever complete? I say, “No, it certainly is not!” Learn - Grow - Accomplish; Learn -Grow - Accomplish, and so on… So, if there's something going on in your life right now that you can utilize as an opportunity for growth I say, "Step up to the challenge and see what you are made of!" Or if you feel things aren’t quite lining up in your life or you are troubled by unforeseen setbacks, I challenge you to pause, take a breather and tap into your unique brilliance to come up with inspiring, creative solutions! And the next time you feel things are falling apart in your life, step back and ask yourself if you are taking it all too seriously. If you are, have a big, long laugh about it! |
