Shakti Shakti Shakti let the Primal Life Force set you free!
The way of the Primal Goddess is the way of instinctual freedom. This face of the Goddess is seen as the untamed wild woman, the source spring of our creativity, the passionate gypsy, the intoxicated priestess of the Goddess who initiates the male aspect as a sacred priestess initiatrix. She acknowledges and empowers through passion, sourcing the primal nature of creation. Her transcendent function emerges through the use of creativity and through that co-creation of reality.
In this aspect, we recognize the transcendent functioning of Shakti-kundalini force as that which literally propels our consciousness towards expansion into its divine nature. The gateway to this aspect is found through ecstatic attunement and passion. She is the Dionysus ecstatic priestess who wildly pushes the limits of perceptual constraints and environment, for she knows that within the instinctual nature are the seeds of ecstatic mystical attunement. This aspect embodies the knowledge that ecstasy is an entryway into enlightenment. The depths of this state can be accessed through deep meditation, dancing, writing, painting, love making, prayer, singing, or any activity, which accesses an intense and potentially altered state of consciousness.
This aspect of the Goddess operates from the instinctual wisdom held in her body. She is the fire of vitality, desire, passion and motivation. She follows her instincts and passions without rationalizing and mental approval of the inner critic or for social acceptance. Because of social disapproval of this aspect of the Goddess, in the human shadow, there may be shame and guilt. We are challenged to love and honor this aspect of the Goddess within and in this, also loving ourselves; learning to set appropriate boundaries that full honor this aspect.
Shakti dissolves the attachments we have to ideas about who we feel we should be, or who we might not be, which creates a distraction for the mind. Shakti dissolves these ideas and reveals the true self.
This is freedom, and great joy. Now enter into the gateway of Ecstatic Attunement and invite this Shakti, Seiki, Primal Life Force, movement to shake, vibrate, and illuminate.
Shakti Shaking Medicine, Awakening the Sacred Fire Within
Focus your intention on an image of Shiva/Shakti; it acts like a "magic mirror", becoming a mirror for your soul to look into. By focusing on our Oneness, we return to the realization of our Wholeness. Surrender to the Shake; surrender all the ways the ego mind tries to hold on to control, holding all the masks in place.
By actively shaking the body, with focus, the mental control of the body subsides and the life force (Shakti) begins to shake us free.
Shaking is about building and strengthening your energy, your inner fire. A sign that this is happening is that your body starts heating up and you will break a sweat. In the beginning, building your fire will require that you shake vigorously.
While shaking, chant the powerful Shakti Mantra "Adi Shakti Namo Namo," which tunes into the frequency of the Great Mother, and to the primal protective, generating energy. Chanting it eliminates fears and fulfills desire. Adi Shakti means the Primal Power, "Shakti ", All power which creates through God." As the mind is cleared and the ego blocks are burned in the sacred fire, the true power of the divine intelligence within begins its ascent to the higher chambers of Divine Mind.
Be grateful as these blocks rise to the surface, keep breathing, shaking, chanting in the mind, and allow spontaneous movement and sound to take over. Feel gratitude for this opportunity to clear blocks and heal. Some shaking sessions will feel exhilarating, others exhausting. Greet both with equanimity. Things will come and go in waves, but you will get stronger and stronger over time if you keep shaking no matter what.
Try to feel with your body, not with your mind. The mind always wants to understand what is happening so it can stay in control. Focus on the body, not the story the mind is trying to tell. Laughter will sometimes arise, tears will sometimes arise, let it all be felt and freed.
When the Shakti (bio-electricity) is running our bodies, we become an empty vessel for the energy to work through. As you surrender, and allow the energy to ecstatically move you, spinning and spiraling, moving with the energy of the universe, opening the energy centers of the body. Spontaneous laughter can arise offering tremendous healing benefits opening all the body's chakras for maximum healing.
In this way, we awaken the Sacred Fire within us, burning away blockages and healing on a very deep level. Answers come directly through the connection with our Soul.
Now lie on the ground and offer your laughter, your joy, and your ecstatic play practice to the Primal Goddess, setting yourself free to be the primal power, the sensual sexuality that moves you beyond duality. Feel the eternal embrace of the Beloved's grace.

Shakti Shakit Shakti Ecstasis Divinitus!
May the Force be with you!Priestess of Ecstasy
The Primal Goddess:She who is Natural, Instinctual, Untamed and Free.
Molten magma of pure life force, vibrant, vermillion flame of awakening and purification.I am the heat, power, and vitality of creative essence.I am instinctual wisdom.I sense the solutions and secretsWithin the belly of your being.I am the flame of pure purpose galvanized within you!I am the promise of awakeningAnd the luminous lotus,Crown of illumination.
I am the sacred fire of the serpent's danceLying coiled within you,Until stirred to wakefulnessIn lightning quickness or serpentine grace.
My sacred river will igniteYour whirling wheels of splendor,setting them spinning into the dance of their own timing.As I dance with you,I gently light the pathway of your natural unfolding.
Open to your enlivened passion!I am the sacred serpent,And it is my effulgent lightFlowing vitally through your beingthat initiates you into the sacred chamberwherein abides the crown of purest love,awaiting, like a silken lotus to adore you.
