We women like feeling sexy and sensual. We’re all passionate and sensual beings. It only takes us tapping into it and connecting with our inner Goddess!

The Aphrodite Goddess is of beauty, femininity, and pleasure. The Romans call her Venus. She is self-assured, passionate, and radiant. Release the Aphrodite energy in yourself and you’ll be the most sensual woman in town! Meditate to her as a form of a love spell.

Below I’ve included a Goddess kit for you to connect with Aphrodite. Scroll to the bottom to see what I’ve included.

The sacral chakra, located in the naval, is represented by Aphrodite. The sacral chakra deals with our emotions, creativity, and sexuality. Aphrodite goddess suits this chakra perfectly. Call on her to enhance your feelings of sensuality, creativity, and femininity. Combine your focus on the sacral chakra with an Aphrodite meditation for optimal effects.

How to Be Creative

Second Chakra

Your second chakra (sacral chakra) is the center for creativity. It’s your divine nature, but many times we lose touch with our creative expression. Take time to draw, paint, or write. Connect with Aphrodite by visualizing her and absorb her energy. Then allow your creative juices to flow. Any act of creation enhances your creativity.

Who is Aphrodite?

The ancient Greeks believed Aphrodite was born a plant that had never been seen on Earth. The Gods dropped nectar on the flower and roses were created. Smelling roses puts us in touch with our sweetness within. Her energy fuels the sensual enjoyment of life and increases the attraction to beautiful things.

She’s also known as the alchemical goddess. When we are in love, our world seems magical. We experience emotions we’ve never felt before. Since ancient times, people realized the sexual union between two people can bring them to transcendence. Working this energy in your body without a partner can also bring you to bliss.

Aphrodite Goddess also helps you get in touch with your creative energy. She has inspired many poets, painters, dancers, and writers, who see Aphrodite as the gateway to a powerful union with their creative energy. Our sensual energy and our creative energy are inextricably intertwined.

She is the affirmation of the love of beauty and the pleasure of the senses. Wherever she walked, animals and plants would become overwhelmed with the desire to couple and make love.

How to be Sensual

Sensuality is something that comes from within. It’s the way you feel about yourself and the way you feel inside your skin. Your body is a temple. Inside it holds sacred energy that’s capable of intense love and creativity. Aphrodite is an excellent Goddess to emulate when you want to bring out your femininity and passion. Cleopatra, the queen of ancient Egypt, is a good example of an Aphrodite archetype as well as Marilyn Monroe.

The Aphrodite women attracts men to her like bees to a flower. She carries herself in the most confident way. No matter her size, she knows deeply she’s a divine and beautiful being. A true Aphrodite woman recognizes her power within. Sexual empowerment is found when callling Aphrodite and releasing any negative beliefs you have surrounding your sexuality.

Scent

Wear rose to get in touch with the sensuality, beauty and your divine nature. The alluring scent of Rose is the scent of Aphrodite and wearing it brings out your femininity. Wear it when you’d like to accentuate your appeal and boost confidence. Use fragrance oil to burn in your bedroom.

Color

Wear reds or greens when connecting with the Aphrodite Goddess. Gold is also a fitting color for Aphrodite.

Stones

Emerald or turquoise are great stones when connecting with Aphrodite.

How to be Sexy

Sexiness is inside of you. It’s the confidence, power, and beauty that inhabits you. One way to bring it out is to bathe in a tub of rose petals. Add a few drops of oil to enhance the experience. It also gives the skin a soft wonderful feeling.

Pretend to be the Aphrodite Goddess. How do you imagine her to be? Before you head out next time, allow her energy to become you. Now, you’re the empowered sensual woman. Walk around like you’re the Aphrodite woman.

Pamper yourself. Spend a day in a salon or spa. Get a massage, facial or herbal wrap. Create your own facial using natural products! Listen to soothing music.

Lightly stroke a feather along your arms. I teach sacred dance as a part of my Goddess Workshops. One part of the dance requires us to lightly touch our fingers along the opposite arm as we watch the fingers glide. Try it. It’s sure to make you feel sexy.

Don’t rush whatever you do. Rushing cuts off your sensuality.

Use your creativity to write down things you can do to get in touch with your Aphrodite Goddess.

Aphrodite Meditation

(a more comprehensive and complete meditation is found in the Aphrodite Goddess Kit) Use this as a love spell to attract love and feel loved.

Sit in a quiet place free of distractions. Ground yourself by imagining a cord attaching you to the center of the earth.

In your mind’s eye, picture the image of Aphrodite. What does she look like? What does she feel like? Take note of her characteristics.

Now allow all of that to become you. You are the Aphrodite Goddess! You are sensual, attractive, beautiful, powerful, and confident. You are full of femininity and wisdom.

Close off the meditation and hold those feelings as long as you can. When you feel that confidence escaping you, remember this meditation.

Aphrodite Goddess Kit

How best to get in touch with the Aphrodite energy than to have all your items together in one package! I make each goddess kit personalized for Her energy.

In your kit you’ll receive:

1. Rose Essential Oil to wear whenever you want to feel more sensual. You may also rub some oil around the candle during your meditation.
2. Turquoise to hold in your hand as you meditate. Not only is it Aphrodite’s stone, but it’s one of the oldest stones used for protection. Before I ship the package out to you, I cleanse the stone using Sage. It’s still recommended you cleanse it yourself before charging it. This is all explained in the Aphrodite Goddess Kit.
3. Jasmine incense to enhance the feelings of love.
4. Aphrodite Mantra to repeat as often as necessary. I’ll include a suggested Aphrodite Mantra, but show you to create your own.

Then light your energy charged candle and light the incense. Hold the Turquoise in your hands then begin the meditation. You’ll be taken on a journey to your inner beauty and sensuality. You’ll feel like a renewed woman!

How are your emotions?

Are they balanced? Are you creative?

If you answered no to the last two questions, keep reading.

Your Sacral Chakra, or your second chakra, is the seat of emotions and creativity. It’s located below the navel and above the pubic bone.

What’s going on with the Sacral Chakra?

The lower abdomen, large intestine, bladder and reproduction organs are tied to your second chakra. Just as babies are created here, your inspiration and creative energy generates here too. Makes sense doesn’t it? Enjoyment, pleasure, stimulation, and our ability to learn and develop are characteristics of this chakra.

Healthy versus unhealthy chakra

If you’re overly sensitive, or emotionally rigid, your second chakra may need healing. Lack or fear of sensuality, overly jealous, lack of happiness, guilt or fear over sex, pleasure, or enjoyment, indicate a chakra that’s in need of healing. Not being inspired or difficulty manifesting things into your life reflects an unhealthy chakra.

Creativity and manifestation is a natural part of life. When your chakras are all balanced, your life flows with much ease. Think of those people who ask for something and it seems to instantly come their way. Do you know their secret? They’re in alignment. You can be in alignment too!

Many times it’s discovered that adults with blocked sacral chakras didn’t experience much affection in their youth.

Sacral Chakra Statistics

Located below the navel, this chakra glows orange.
Fittingly, orange stones bring it into balance. Look over my selection of healing crystals.
Myrrh is the scent of the second chakra and should be worn whenever you feel your chakra is in need of healing. Check out these natural essential oils.

Goddess Aphrodite is sensual, sexual, beautiful, and ties to your sacral chakra. Call on her to awaken your chakra and stir your sensuality and creativity. My Goddess Aphrodite Kit has all the tools necessary to connect with her.

Activities to bring the chakra into balance

Take pen to paper. “Channel.” Set some time aside to scribble away. It doesn’t matter what you write just allow your feelings and thoughts to flow. This e-book gives you tips on unleashing your creativity.

Draw. This is one activity I do in my Goddess Workshops. Pull out your old crayons or colored pencils then draw away. Pull out whatever color calls to you and just go at it. When you’re done, look at your picture. What feelings do you get when you look at the picture? Many times you don’t even know what’s going on inside you. It takes either someone pointing something out to you, or you becoming very observant of yourself. This exercise is a good first step.

Yoga.

Do Baddha Konasana by sitting on the floor, bending your knees and touching the bottom of your feet together. Then exhale and bring your feet closer towards your body. Make sure to keep your back straight.

Healing Crystals

Orange stones like citrine or carnelian are great for balancing this chakra.

Lay on your back and place a stone on your sacral chakra. Imagine and feel your chakra absorbing the energies of the stone. Sit there for as long as you feel necessary.

Meditate.
Draw up energies from the earth into your root chakra then watch as it enters into your sacral chakra. Watch negative energy be released as the earth’s energy cleanses the chakra. Then take more energy and watch it travel up your whole body and finally release through your crown chakra.

Do you have an easy time communicating with others and expressing your emotions?

Do you speak up when you have something to say?

An imbalanced throat chakra means you’re not expressing what’s going on inside your heart. I don’t mean to start on an honesty quest and tell every single person you know just what you think of him or her! Instead, express yourself in a healthy way. If someone hurts you, let your voice be heard.

Expression also includes creativity. Sing, write, or perform. All of these are healthy expressions of the throat chakra.

Body Parts Ruled By the Throat Chakra

Accordingly, the throat and neck is ruled by this chakra as well as the thyroid. When I hold my emotions in, almost immediately my throat gets sore. This also happens when I’m stressed then I realize that I wasn’t speaking up for myself.

Balancing the Throat Chakra

Chanting
Chanting and mantra meditations release throat problems. The natural sound the completely relaxed chakra makes is “AAAH”. Take a deep breath and chant this sound for as long as possible. Begin chanting loudly then continue softly until the sound is only in the mind.
Release Past Hurts
Remove blocks from the throat by tracing back feelings of past hurts that you may not have expressed. Write those emotions down on paper, then symbolically burn them away.

Camel Pose
The camel pose in yoga is great for balancing the throat chakra by encouraging good blood suplpy to the neck and keeping the energy moving.

Sit on your heels on top of a blanket or mat. Clasp your hands behind you.

Inhale. With the exhale, allow your head to drop back and at the same time raise your arms a little behind you.

When you’re ready to release, let go of your hands and on the out breath bring yourself back to sitting posture.

Repeat this three times.

Goddess Athena

She can help you bring balance to your throat chakra. I create specially designed goddess kits for better results when connecting with the goddess of your choice. Check out goddess athena’s kit.

Colors, Stones, Scents
The throat chakra is represented by the color blue. Perfect stones to use are any blue ones like Aquamarine, Lapis, or Blue Opal. Place the stone of your choice on your throat and imagine yourself absorbing the healing energies of the stone.

Frankincense is the scent of this chakra. I like to wear essential oils for whatever chakra I’m bringing balance to. I recommend frankincense natural essential oil and dab a few drops on your throat.

There you have it! Tools you need to balance your throat chakra!

How’s your insight or intuition? Can you see things beyond your five senses?

By developing the third eye, you’ll see beyond the obvious and gain access to the intuitive and clairvoyant world. But I’ll relay information an acupuncturist told me: you have to develop from the bottom up. Maintain a strong base chakra for grounding. If not, she said, you’ll go crazy. Now, I don’t know how much truth there is to the last part, but why risk it.

The third eye, or sixth chakra, is located in the space above where your eyebrows meet. The third eye actually originates in the center of the brain. In Tao, they call this area The Crystal Palace.

Developing Clairvoyance

Practice your clairvoyant skills daily. Try psychometry which is the ability to get impressions from objects. Practice with objects from different people and of different places. Ask a friend to borrow a piece of jewelry.

Hold the object in your hand and feel what impressions you get from it. Don’t worry about getting it right or wrong. Just do it for fun. You may also place the object on your third eye.

Crystal Healing

The brown chakra is represented by violet or indigo. Amethyst is the perfect stone. Rest it on your third eye then imagine the healing energies entering your chakra. Wear it regularly whenever you feel you need balancing.

Scents are very powerful and Jasmine brings balance to this chakra.

Fish Pose

This pose is great to focus your energy on your brow chakra. You have two variations. The picture below requires you to outstretch your legs. The other variation allows you to kneel on the ground and rest your buttocks on the back of your legs. I’ll describe the pose as indicated by the picture below.

After you sit on the ground and outstretch your legs, place the palms of your hands under your hips and bend your elbows behind you.

Lean back on your elbows and breathe in.

Then breathe out while leaning farther back while supporting yourself on your arms. Allow your head drop back and arch your back slightly. Breathe normally and focus on your third chakra. If you’re able, touch your head to the ground.

When you’re ready to come out of this position, allow your elbows to slide down and lower yourself to a lying position. Then roll to your side and sit up.

Now that you’re balanced, what will you do?

Are you experiencing money problems or a lack of motivation?

The root chakra is tied to our survival instincts and connection to the Earth. It’s located at the base of the spine and is red. Each chakra spins at a different rate and the first chakra spins the slowest. The kundalini energy is coiled in your root chakra also.

Characteristics of the First Chakra

Your desire to live relates to the first chakra. Because it’s tied to our survival instincts, a feeling of lack means you may experiencing an imbalanced root chakra. Being afraid you won’t make rent in time or have enough food to eat are signs of an imbalanced chakra. Of course if this is a reality, then you may have limiting beliefs which are keeping you from living an abundant life. In Wayne Dyer’s book, Inspiration, he says he’s financially well off because he always knew he’d be wealthy. He says he is money.


It’s important to keep the root chakra balanced because it’s the “roots” of the rest of the chakras. Like the roots of a tree, they must be strong in order to sustain the rest of the tree. Create a strong base and the rest will follow. Your hips, legs, feet, circulatory, skeletal, kidneys, and muscular system are tied to your root chakra.

Root Chakra Stats

•The root chakra is red
•It vibrates at the lowest rate
•It’s located at the base of the spine
•To ground, imagine a cord connecting from the root chakra to the center of the earth
•The scent associated with this chakra is musk and wearing it will energize this chakra.
•Red and black stones balance this chakra
•Seat of passion
•Goddess Gaia is tied to the root chakra. Doing a meditation with her will be useful for energizing your root chakra.

Is Your Root Chakra Healthy?

Here’s a small questionnaire to answer related to your root chakra:

•Do you dislike your feet and legs?
•Are you experiencing pain in the hips, lower back, legs or feet?
• Do you feel strongly about the color red whether it’s one of your least favorite or most favorite colors?
• Are you passionate?
• If you get angry, is your first reaction rage or aggression?
• Do you get angry easily?
• Do you often feel a loss of energy or inertia?
• Are money issues a concern?
• Have you experienced feelings of powerlessness or fear?
If you answered yes to a majority of the questions, your root chakra is in need of healing.

Energize the Root Chakra

Drumming, dancing, and jogging help to balance this chakra. Dances that require you to stomp your feet on the ground work well for this chakra. Think of tribal type dancing. Belly dancing is also great to energize all the chakras. During my goddess workshops, I get the women doing a fun sacred dance that’s specifically for opening the root chakra. This dance requires you to do a lot of squatting with slow movements.

Reiki healing is also great to bring the chakras into balance. Look for a practitioner near your home!

Eat foods high in protein or take mineral supplements. Because your root chakra is your grounding center, if you’re ungrounded you may feel “spacey.” Of course you should always eat a balanced diet so don’t overdo it on the protein.

Release energies from your first chakra by writing down your emotions on a piece of paper and symbolically burn it away.

Yoga Pose for First Chakra

The Warrior pose is great for stabilizing your root chakra:

Stand with legs apart to create a triangle of equal sides with the ground. Standing in this pose alone generates a lot of heat. You’ll be surprised. Make sure to keep breathing normally.

Stretch your arms out to the sides and turn your left foot outwards. Exhale as you bend your left knee while keeping the right leg straight. When you reach a position where you could be sitting on an imaginary chair, stop.

Hold this pose for three counts. Come back to center. Then repeat on the right side.

Crystal Healing

Crystals are very effective for cleansing and balancing the chakras. For your root chakra, you want to use red or black stones. Some of these include- red jasper, garnet, hematite, or black tourmaline.

Carry them in your pocket because that’s near your root chakra. Place them under your pillow at night. Make sure to cleanse the stones when you bring them home. Use sage or incence and cleanse them with the smoke. You can also bury them in the Earth for a few days. When they’re cleansed, charge them with your energy. Hold them in your right hand and set your intention into the stone.

Root Chakra Meditation

Imagine your root chakra is connected to the center of the earth. Then visualize healing energy coming up from the Earth into your root chakra. Then see your first chakra filling with brilliant red light and expelling all the negative energy out of your body. Then draw up a surge of energy and watch it pass through your body out of your crown chakra into a fountain of a colorful rainbow. Use healing candles to assist you in your meditation.

You may also place the stone of your choice on your root chakra as you lay on your back. Then visualize your body absorbing the energies from the stone.
