Due to their subtlety, the symptoms of the awakening of feminine energy can be challenging to describe. Primarily, the awakening of the sacred feminine is a sensual experience.

We feel the divine feminine and understand it instinctively.

The sacred feminine communicates through an ancestral language of sensation, emotion, and vision. Here are a few examples of how this awakening may be experienced.

Connection to Nature 

As women embodying a feminine essence, we share a direct and energetic connection with the Earth. As this feminine energy awakens, our relationship with the natural world becomes more evident. This is often felt as an increased desire to spend time outdoors in natural settings. Many of us may feel drawn to wild places such as forests, waterfalls, and mountain lakes. Urban environments, well-organized gardens, buildings, and shops can hinder this vital connection to the Earth.

As we express our divine feminine energy, we seek to connect with the Earth and experience a diminishing distinction between ourselves and its energy. This connection can be felt throughout our bodies—particularly in our legs, hips, and womb. The feminine energy links us to rivers, lakes, and oceans, allowing these bodies of water to resonate with us and communicate subtly with our bodies.

A need to reconnect with natural cycles

Our society is largely disconnected from the natural cycles of the earth. The changing seasons pass us by without affecting our schedules in the slightest. Our daily lives remain largely the same in winter as in summer, regardless of whether we are menstruating or our stage of life. It often feels as though we are living in a sterilized universe. However, when the sacred feminine awakens, we also begin to recognize the need to respect and celebrate the cycles of nature and our bodies as women.

This realization can lead to sadness and despair as we understand how cyclical we—and our environment—are, especially since many of us find ourselves in contexts that demand stability and linearity. As women, we are neither linear nor stable. Embracing this truth does not make us irresponsible or unproductive. The more we free ourselves from external expectations, the more we can channel the power of the divine feminine, along with her vision and compassion.

A Closer Connection to Women

Many of us have grown up surrounded by women who expressed the feminine in immature ways. This often led to feelings of competition among women, as though resources were limited and there were winners and losers. Instead of supporting one another, we found ourselves at odds. However, as the sacred feminine begins to express itself more fully, we start to emotionally connect with other women. We are shifting away from purely intellectual communication towards deeper heart connections.

The role of women in our lives changes, and the need for sisterhood reemerges. It becomes essential to take the time to immerse ourselves in the nurturing energy of other women who genuinely wish the best for us. There is something truly special about being surrounded by women who, though not related by blood, feel like our sisters—possibly from other lifetimes or bonded through similar energies and destinies.

Emotions become portals for wisdom

Unfortunately, many of us have been brought up to repress, hide, or be ashamed of our emotions. Many of us fear being 'too much' if we let ourselves go with the flow of our feelings in a raw way. For example, the fear of being too complicated often makes us feel bad about our more intense emotions, such as before our period.

If we have been lucky, we may have learnt to listen to our emotions and understand how they can set us in motion if we listen to their expressed needs. We have developed a more benevolent and creative relationship with our emotions in this case.

When the divine feminine awakens, its influence extends far beyond surface-level understanding. Emotions become invitations to connect with our inner oracle and wisdom. They carry important messages, revealing information through the language of the body. Emotions open the door to our subtle capacities. One role of the sacred feminine is to help us stay aligned. Just as lighthouses guide ships, our emotions illuminate the path toward more harmonious relationships with our partners and communities.
