Practicing Tantra in All of Life

Thursday, November 17th, 2011
When people ask me to define tantra, I often begin by explaining that although tantra in the United States focuses a lot on sexuality, traditionally tantric spirituality is about all parts of life. It is a path of finding enlightenment through the body.

What does that mean? (more…)

Slogging

Wednesday, August 31st, 2011
Today has been a beautiful one–the weather is fabulous, I had a wonderful client session this morning, and a fabulous lunch date with a very attractive man. And yet even with all these blessings and pleasures, I am feeling unhappy about the need to sit at my computer and work. I am tired of that feeling of slogging away and wondering how to get back to a place of passionate spirit and joy.

I feel that same vibe in my relationship. I know that we have a number of serious issues to address, but I just don’t want to. I want to put my head in the sand and play and pretend that those things will just go away. One issue in particular is challenging for me, that lately I’m having trouble finding motivation to do deep tantric red practice with my beloved. We make love often and it feels wonderful, but I haven’t been able to motivate myself to add deep tantra to that mix.

In some ways I know this is just a case of balance coming into my life, but in others I can feel for sure that I am avoiding real intimacy. I know there are deeper places that I can go with my beloved and I am really scared about opening my heart that wide. After all the ups and downs in my love life over the past few years, I am just plain tired and scared.

So today rather than trying to “push on through” I am relaxing and surrendering and trusting that things will move if and when they are meant to do so, as long as I hold the intention for healing and continue to do my own solo practice. It’s odd, but I have this sense that everything is going to be ok.

Just for today it’s work a little, play a little. Completing small tasks and then letting myself dance, eat soft serve ice cream and watch old “Star Trek” episodes. Aho Captain Kirk!

Animal Soul

Tuesday, August 30th, 2011
Last night I dreamed that I was given the loan of a beautiful chestnut mare for a day. She was too wild to ride, and had to be led at first by a rope halter tied to another horse (who of course was called Black Beauty!). By the end of the day, she and I were devoted to each other, but it was time to take her back to the farm, to those who owned her. She didn’t want to go back, and when we returned she tried to win the approval of the owner by putting on an apron and sweeping out the stalls (after all, this was a dream!). The owner insisted anyway that she be returned to her “holding tank”, sort of a giant warm soapy bath. I was sad, and petted her head to say goodbye, but she had already drifted into the land of dreams.

I know this beautiful horse is my own animal nature, which lately has been longing to come out and play more often. The sun was in Sagittarius when I was born, giving me a soul nature that is half horse and half human–half wild and physical, half cultured and spiritual . This dream speaks to an inner conflict that seems to arise in us all–finding the balance between work and pleasure, between animal and spirit, between upper and lower chakras. Lately my life has centered on hard work more than on sex, dance, art, and love, and I can feel that it is time for balance.

From this balance comes Power.

Journey to the Sacred Mountain

Thursday, August 11th, 2011
Tarot Reading today: The Queen of Pentacles, The 10 of Wands, The Tower!

Tomorrow I will fulfill a lifetime dream to see the mountains of Colorado. Journeying by car with my beloved, I will have 10 days to be on the desert lands and then in the high desert and mountains. I am filled with joy and gratitude. To be making this journey with my beloved, it’s almost more than my heart and mind can handle. To have spent so many years waiting for this bliss and to finally have it! I can’t fully describe the utter contentment and satisfaction, not to mention the blaze of passion that has awakened in me for him, my work, and for life.

I have never before felt this joyful and centered in my life. I have never before felt such a sense of rightness. I can only imagine what magick awaits me in the Mountains. The tower tarot card tells me that the old paradigms are about to be completely blown away. I am ready. Tell you all about it when I get back!
