Connect to your Dark Feminine Energy

Dark feminine energy is the connection to ones dark side; this being the shadow side of the Divine feminine.

Dark feminine energy is the side of the Divine feminine that many times is withheld because of societal expectations and ideologies. The dark feminine is unleashed through many different practices including...

1. Shadow work - This involves unravelling the unconscious aspects of ones true nature. Through journaling, therapy, and other forms of self exploration, you are able to unlock and work through repressed emotions, trauma, fears, and desire to lead to a conscious awakening of oneself.

2. Embracing sensuality - Pleasuring our physical and spiritual bodies through self love, movement, dance, yoga, and other forms of sensual and sexual pleasure. Our bodies need and deserve love in all ways.

3. Mindfulness - Awakening our senses to all that we are and what is around us, is an important part of connecting with our dark energy. Meditation, mindful eating and movement, breath work and self-reflection are activities to practice on the daily.

When we speak on dark feminine energy, we question the traditional ideology of what "feminine" means. As mentioned in past blogs, 'femininity', is a social construct, so when we think of dark feminine energy we can think of all the traits that are not typical of a woman in the traditional ideology of society.

Here are some other ways to connect with your dark side...

• Connect with your higher self - give yourself space and time , listen to your body and what it is yearning for.

• Spend time around dark masculine energy - with true authentic, powerful masculine energy, intertwining with your authentic true powerful feminine energy, one can feel enlightened.

• Embrace your menstrual cycle. Break the stigma around menstruation and allow this time for your body to rest, regenerate, and nourish it for the coming month.

• Give your senses the gift of nature. We are one with, and part of nature and the power that mother nature holds, is given to us for energy and life.
