Why is divine feminine so powerful?
Dec 11, 2024
The sacred, divine feminine energy has always existed, and it's always been present in both men and women. To understand why it's so powerful, it's useful to look at what it brings and what's missing when it's silenced.
Feminine energy is, in essence, multiple.
It expresses itself differently according to cycles, rhythms, needs and periods. For example, sacred feminine energy will feel differently during the menstrual cycle or the different phases of life. Women are, by nature, cyclical. And power is hidden behind the possibility of exploring various facets of ourselves.
What does feminine energy feel like?
The divine feminine is extremely powerful and can sometimes be felt as pure empathy, devotion, rage, compassion, being connected to the earth, being connected to the ocean, being the ocean, being the connection. The range of feelings and impressions is immense and vast, but there is one thing: sacred feminine energy is embodied and alive.
This is how it feels: embodied, conscious, wavy, powerful, chaotic, deep, intense, alive, sensual, nurturing. When you are in your sacred feminine energy, you know it. It is like you can finally take the space you were always meant to take, whatever society's expectations on how to be a woman.
Sacred feminine energy does not care about boxes. It is about reclaiming all facets of your being and embodying your true, powerful nature. Once you embody it, you recognize it as its spaciousness.
What does it feel like when the feminine energy is silenced?
When sacred feminine energy is silenced, it's in a word: dry. Something is missing. It's not entirely comfortable - and that's normal; we're not evolving at full capacity. What's missing is pleasure, the sensation of life, sensuality, unctuousness, pleasantness, and warmth. This can make things feel too rigid, square and enclosed, which is expected as feminine energy is not linear. It is craving for more, for more pleasurable and for more aliveness.
But we know all about that.
Our ancestors know it well.
We come from centuries that have reshaped us. We come from lines of women who have had to silence the sacred feminine or fight for it. And right now, many of us have only learned to function from masculine energy, confusing the appearances of feminine energy with its subtle sense.
Sacred feminine energy is not about being sexy, dressing femininely or taking care of yourself. Of course, that can be part of it. It can be a wonderful gateway. But a woman can look the most feminine in the world yet feel robbed of her feminine life force, chaos, sensuality, and power.
A life where the sacred feminine is missing is a life lacking magic.
It is time to reclaim it fully, not just as individuals but as a community.
