Why I Didn’t Report My Sexual Abuse
This is a story of sexual abuse. While it’s not graphic in any way, it still may be uncomfortable to read. It does have a very happy ending! We’ve just come off the week of the Kavanaugh hearings, during which time I was with my stepdad in the hospital. Needless to...
Neo-Tantra, Boundary Violations, & Sexual Misconduct
The recent eruption of sexual misconduct and boundary violations has finally reached the world of neo-tantra and spirituality. As a teacher of Sacred Sexual Awakening and Healing®, I’ve long been aware of neo-tantra and “spiritual” sexuality practitioners who bring...
The Sacred Dance of Masculine and Feminine
The Masculine and Feminine Dance Yule, or Winter Solstice, is a high holy day that predates Christmas by thousands of years. It’s one I’ve recognized and celebrated in addition to (and more often instead of) Christmas since 2000. As I revisit the lore and mythology of...

The Emergence of Feminine Sexual Empowerment
A new generation of feminine sexual empowerment is rapidly on the rise. As women step up and speak their truth about sexual harassment and abuse, they claim their sexual sovereignty. But what about the impact of all that sexual wounding? It doesn’t just vanish. On the...
The Sacred Inner Masculine
The sacred feminine is balanced by her counterpart, the sacred masculine. Rather than being outside of yourself, the sacred masculine is part of you. People of every gender carry both feminine and masculine energies inside of them; some people lean more into their...
The Ceremonial Rededication of the Priestess
Upon this Autumnal Equinox day 2015, on the slopes of Haleakala Maui, I create ceremonial rededication of myself as a Priestess under Morning Star Venus in Leo. I embrace the Leo themes of radiant, radical self-love, vision-carrier, and innovative creator. I declare...
When the Shadow Feminine Comes Out to Play
I want to explore this idea of the shadow feminine, because while it’s easy to cast blame and be the righteous victim, there’s likely some potent information underneath the initial reaction. Women have been competing with each other for various things, including men,...
What is the Sacred Feminine?
Who am I to define the sacred feminine? Well, I’m an elder wise woman, for starters… and a high priestess with direct experience of the sacred feminine mystery. And why would I even want to try? Because She is emerging to help heal the planet in brand new ways right...
The Priestess in the Mirror
