The womb is an empty creative space with infinite creative potential. She holds your sensual feminine energy. She carries your fiery, wild, brilliant power and strength. She holds your sexual energy—a power strong enough to actualize your dreams and desires into reality.

The womb also stores and holds onto past experiences. Imprints of past lovers and intimate moments, trauma from hurtful/scary/upsetting experiences, emotions too painful to think about. If you aren’t able or don’t want to deal with and process such emotions, you consciously or subconsciously hide from them, distract yourself from your pain, fear, worries, and suppress your wounds.

By burying these unprocessed emotions you create energetic blocks and stagnation in your body and womb. You may feel disempowered, uncreative, distant and numb, and in a place where you don’t love yourself. Where you feel weak and afraid. Where you fall into a cycle of negative behavior—perpetually manifesting the same financial issues, relationships, and life choices that don’t benefit you. But you can’t move forward. You feel stuck.

You can clear this stagnant energy that has been holding you back and keeping you locked in the same cycle for years. And when you begin to cleanse the energy of your womb space you’ll also have more clarity when it comes to your current life situation. You’ll slowly awaken the creative life force within your womb. Finally, new experiences will come into your life. You’ll connect fully with your sensuality, your erotic, feminine, orgasmic energy, and embody your sacred, wild, creative self.

How can we release the energetic burden of the deeply-seated wounds that our wombs have been carrying around and holding onto for years? How can we heal our creative centers and move through stagnation?

A powerful way to move through and release energetic burdens in the womb space is to become intimate with yourself. Relax and enter an intimate space where you feel comfortable with yourself entirely. When’s the last time you seriously, truly appreciated yourself in an intimate way? Watch yourself dance in the mirror and recognize how beautiful your body is when it moves slowly, erotically. Sit down in front of a mirror and just gaze at your reflection for a while. Practice self-pleasure—whether it be a massage or the more intimate exploration of your body and what it desires, what you’ve been neglecting.

Each crystal has a different energy, or vibration, of its own. Rose quartz carries the soothing energy of love and femininity, black obsidian repels negative energies, and citrine vibrates with successful endeavors. A crystal wand brings sacredness, beauty, and a very healing energy to self-pleasure. When you introduce a crystal wand to your womb, you’re essentially clearing her of blockages at a fast pace, while introducing the healing energy that your crystal wand holds. Connecting with your sexual energy allows you to just be, and to fall deeply into your own pleasure, as you become comfortable with your crystal wand and begin to drop the unhealthy stories (buried deeply in the womb for years) about why you aren’t deserving of pleasure.

Emotions may come up and they won’t be pretty at all times—but you are healing and you are letting go. You’re clearing your womb of the old stories, fears, traumas, and buried emotions to allow yourself to align with your truth. You’ll shake things up. You’ll change. You’ll discover parts of yourself you forgot about completely. And you’ll get in touch with your creative, sacred, ecstatic being.
