I have a vulnerable share. Are you ready? My very first Jade Egg sat in the drawer for months. Not days. Not weeks. We’re talkin’ months. Like so many women, when I first heard about the Taoist Jade Egg practice, I was intrigued. I’m a pretty holistic gal, so the promise of healing my pelvic floor issues (which were pretty bad) naturally, really appealed to me.  I’m also kinda witchy, to be honest. I’ve always been drawn to ancient mystical practices of all kinds.  Venus in Scorpio conjunct Neptune over here:) So working with crystals in this sacredly sensual way seemed so cool.&nb ..read more

I hear you! And I've definitely been there. What if you could work some inner alchemy on this and shift your ..read more

When it comes to astrology, most people know their Sun sign. Many know their Moon and Rising signs too. But so few are acquainted with their personal Venus. To be honest not many astrologers give Her much attention. Or the wrong, “bad news”, disempowering kind of attention. Like “with your Venus in this sign, or with this aspect on your Venus, your love life is doomed.” kind of thing. That’s dangerous advice. Venus is the part of your natal chart that brings it all alive. The part that gets you clear on your desires, turns on your radiance, joy, magnetism and creativity.  She's here to o ..read more

Venus, Goddess of Love. Why should we care? When we think of the things Venus/Aphrodite represents; beauty, sensuality, pleasure, sex, passion, love and intimacy it’s clear to see that these are themes most humans struggle with.  But it doesn’t have to be that way. This face of the Goddess has been dissed, dismissed, trivialized, commercialized and commoditized more than any other.  I find that very intriguing. What was once sacred, and central to thriving  ancient civilizations has been cheapened and deemed taboo. Why? Maybe there’s something to explore here. Could Venus be the ..read more

There was a time in human history where beauty, pleasure, sexuality and all things Venus were held sacred. And life was good. When the Goddess of Love reigned supreme, systems of true partnership flourished and the power and virility of the Sacred Masculine was equally honored and celebrated.  These  civilizations were rich in sensuality, sport, ceremony, art and trade. Essential oils were used as medicine and in spiritual ritual. A  highly effective form of herbal birth control was traded for throughout the Mediterranean.  Historians and archeologists say there is no evi ..read more

Happy Solstice! The Solstice portals are always a powerful time for me. A time for reflection and celebration. A time to release and re-align. This Solstice was super special for me as I had the privilege of guiding a group of amazing women in my community through a sensual breathwork journey. It was such a beautiful reminder of just how potent sisterhood can be. Maybe it feels so extra sweet to me because I didn't always feel safe in community with other women. I've heard from so many women who have felt similarly. I feel it's one of the most toxic aliments to come out of the patriarchy ..read more

When we breathe like the ocean, we remember. Breath is one of the most powerful tools we can use to heal and transform our minds and bodies. I know you've heard that millions of times. And it's true. Maybe you've experienced this yourself. There are so many different techniques of breathwork that can produce so many different kinds of results. And I think all of that is great. But I was craving something more... Venusian. After exploring many different styles of breathwork, I found that something was missing for me. I wanted more juice, more pleasure, more sensuality, more flow. What I ..read more
