Many people begin the journey into tantra because they hear that they can have AMAZING SEX!! (And who doesn’t want that?)

Others feel the mystical call of the ancient spiritual path of tantra — the desire to experience the divine in every moment of their lives, the desire to truly awaken to their full divine/human potential.

And many feel broken in some way. They’ve had painful past relationships, sexual difficulties, feelings of being disconnected and having lost meaning in their lives, and hear that the path of tantra can help them.

The truth is that in order to experience the phenomenal bliss and ecstasy of tantric intimacy, we have to embrace all three.

Tantra Forces Us To Get Real!

The magic of practising tantra is that we absolutely have to get real with ourselves if we are going to have a tantric experience. We can learn techniques and do group exercises and read books. But if we don’t actually look into our hearts, our brokenness, and our challenges and heal them, we will not find the ecstasy that we’re looking for.

Are you afraid to make a move because you’re unsure of the outcome? Maybe you are waiting for a guarantee before you make your next move.

I hear folks say, “I want to quit my job, but I don’t know if it will work out,” “I want to start dating again, but only if I meet my soul mate” or “I really want to travel, but I don’t have enough money.”

So many of us have goals and dreams that we want to accomplish, and we think, “If only I knew how it would work out, then I could move forward.” We don’t really know what to do because we are unsure of the outcome.

Many of us fail to act or move forward because the thought of making a wrong move feels catastrophic. Our thoughts turn negative when we perceive that our next step will put us into a permanent position we can’t get out of. Think about it. Think about a situation where you accepted a new job, or got involved with a new relationship, whether romantically or a new business venture; what were your thoughts? Most people don’t start things by focusing on the end, because we don’t want a promising situation to end. We start new relationships, new diets, new jobs, and make new friends because we want them to work out. We want them to, in essence, be permanent things, because if they work out, that means we are happy, right?

When you have an attachment to things looking a certain way, you are already planning for anything else to be wrong. You are infusing a situation with a pre-planned lack of acceptance, a rigidity, that is quite contrary to the flow of creation. When you lack acceptance for anything other than a certain result, you make it difficult for the universe to serve you your highest outcome, which is almost always far beyond anything you could ever imagine for yourself.

So, yes, Dear Ones, get clear about what you would like to create, but also allow it to be malleable, to be open and flowing, to be the start of a masterpiece that universe can tweak and improve upon, in ways that will best serve the whole and surprise and amaze you. Hand it off to the universe for the greatest good, with room to be even better than your wildest dreams, and you will be utilizing the the power of co-creation.

So often when things aren’t happening for you in terms of manifestation, it is because you are not making room for even better to occur, and that is what would be your true energetic match. Metaphorically, are you asking for glass when the universe is trying to bring you diamonds, because diamonds best reflect the true beauty of your soul? Allow room for you and the universe to joyfully participate in the sacred act of creation together, and you will be delighted with what is possible. ~Archangel Gabriel
