Divine Feminine Energy

If you are reading this, you are mostly likely amongst the souls who chose to inhabit the physical and material realm. In embracing the state of being in a corporeal body, we find a unique connection to Divine Masculine energy. By “divine masculine,” I do not mean the patriarchy or the deities of monotheistic religions, but the polar spiritual energy of masculinity.

Gender Divinity

Divine masculinity inhabits physical beings: action, intelligence, leadership, love, analysis, and vitality. These aspects are quite powerful and contribute great material gain as well as physical health. It is important to nurture and cultivate these aspects of ourselves. While these aspects will help you with physical goals like toning your body and getting rich, they don’t contribute to overall wealth and spiritual health. They deliver great short-term goals, but not long-term personal gain.  These aspects of our divinity are inherently more reachable because our society values them.

Many of us have become detached from our divine feminine because of productivity culture and capitalism. The divine feminine is the spiritual energy of femininity which inhibits both the higher self (Arch Feminine) and the shadow self (Dark Feminine). Unlocking divine feminine energy within ourselves helps to nourish and heal our souls, spirits, and minds. Divine feminine aspects include our intuition, wisdom, shadow self, warrior, strategy, independence, and sensuality. Divine feminine aspects take more cultivation than divine masculine aspects, but they are equally – if not more – powerful.

Incorporating the Divine Feminine into Your Craft

Our patriarchal society masks the power of the Divine Feminine through productivity culture and religion.  When we turn towards witchcraft we are forced to look deeper into this energy (whether you believe in a physical Divine Entity or just believe in an energy that science will one day understand and exists outside of spirituality).

Here are some ways you can access this energy in your craft.

1. Shadow Work – Shadow Work allows you to open up your intuition and connect to your dark femininity. Dark feminity encompasses the warrior self, shadow self, and your sensuality. It is extremely powerful. Here are some prompts to help you get started:

    • What’s something that you knew but don’t remember reading about or studying it?
    • What sensual feelings has society forced you to repress? Do you feel like you prefer to be more or less sexual?
    • Why do you think that is?
    • What is a topic you feel drawn to learn more about that you would definitely google using incognito mode?
    • Write about someone you felt an indescribable need to protect. Do you think they needed that protection? Do you regret providing that protection?

2. Isolation – Divine Feminine Energy gives us our clair and empathic gifts. These abilities are best honed when you take the appropriate “me-time.” Spend time alone in your thoughts focusing on what you want to bring about. Understanding your goals and morals as an individual helps you better understand and accept your emotions.

3. Self-Love Rituals – Learning to love and trust in yourself is perhaps one of the most difficult tasks in your journey to reconnecting with your inner Divine Feminine. If you want to reach your highest potential you have to trust in your ability to get there which means stop second-guessing yourself, be more assertive, and know that all humans are beautiful. A practice I highly recommend is writing yourself a love letter (or if you are really creative maybe you can write a love song.)

4. Meditation – Meditation does not only have to be laying in a stagnant spot listening to the ocean waves. Perhaps you meditate best while you’re on your morning jog, or even meditate in your lucid dreams. Meditation is the practice of relaxing your mind and refocusing your energies on positivity. The setting and manner in which you do it is up to you.
