Sacred Thoughts - From the Heart of the Goddess
Sacred Touch – The Magical Art of Laying on Hands
By EveLynn
Touch in our modern culture is a very
touchy subject. There are
right ways and there are wrong ways. There
are good ways and there are bad ways. There
are socially acceptable ways and there are socially condemned ways.
In our society, the socially acceptable way to touch
and receive touch is through massage. However,
generally when we think of massage, we think of someone who has had years of
training to manipulate muscles and nerves.
Most of us do not feel qualified to administer massage.
Therapeutic massage, while it is relaxing and somewhat stress reducing,
is only designated to address discomfort and discord in “acceptable” areas
of the body. Areas
considered a part of our sexual anatomy are considered off limits.
By isolating these areas we heap even more shame and guilt upon
our being. Therapeutic massage is
subject to many rules and regulations that isolate the very parts of our body
and soul that needs the most nurturing. And God forbid that we should become
sexually aroused or
cause sexual arousal during a therapeutic massage session
So then, how
can those “unacceptable” areas of the body find the nurturing and
acceptance they crave? Those
areas are addressed by Sacred Touch practioners who are willing to take the
risk to address the entire body. They
fall into an entire underground of
sexual healers who provide sensual
massage, erotic massage, sexual
massage, and sacred touch. It
is safe to say that with few exceptions, these
sexual
massage modalities are all, to some degree, identified
with illegal activities that bring shame and persecution to those who
administer them as well as those who receive from them.
And what a shame it is!!
Sensual massage, erotic massage and sexual massage were all at one time
considered by most cultures to be a basis of the healing process.
Sensual, erotic and sexual massage were all considered sacred touch.
Tantra, Taoism,
the Mayan-Native American traditions, the Egyptian mysteries, the
Celtic –Pagan traditions and any number of other indigenous cultures
scattered around the world considered sexual energy and sexual pleasures as an
avenue to commune with the divine and heal the body and soul.
Two of the many Sacred Touch modalities that deliver
powerful healing to those receiving as well as those giving are Taoist Erotic
Massage and Tantra Sensual Massage.
Taoist Erotic Massage
The Taoist tradition recognized sexual energy as
a very powerful healing modality. By
incorporating focused breath and relaxation,
one could re-connect one’s physical being to one’s energetic self
and re-balance and heal. Taoist
Erotic Massage stems from that tradition.
Taoist Erotic Massage is a form of sensual massage that has been
developed and re-introduced in the western world by such healers and teachers
as Joseph Kramer, PhD who founded
the original Body Electric organization. He
subsequently developed a curriculum for certifying Sexological Bodyworkers
through the State of
California
. His work is on the forefront of
legalizing the concept of Taoist Erotic Massage as a socially acceptable and
very viable healing modality.
Taoist Erotic Massage, when practiced in its purest
form, teaches one to use sexual energy to reach states of higher consciousness
by diverting the ejaculation response, thereby reaching altered states of
consciousness.
The methodologies of this form of sexual massage are
often used to help recipients overcome sexual concerns such as premature
ejaculation and erectile dysfunction (ED), as well as pelvic floor pain and
other challenges effecting our overall well being.
It is also a sexual massage modality that honors prostate massage as an
integral and important aspect of male sexual wellness, without regard to
gender preference.
Tantra Sensual Massage
Tantra Sensual Massage, is a very spiritual and
ceremonial form of sensual massage that takes both giver and receiver into
another world. The sexual massage
incorporates the entire body and coaxes the sexual energy into every pore and
every cell. Tantra Sensual Massage
is expansive and erotic. The
erotic is transformed into divine bliss.
Tantra Sensual Massage is about the dance of Sexual Self in
relationship to another or others. The
Tantrika celebrates the body including sexual self.
The Tantra
Sensual Massage celebrates god and goddess energy in self and in the other.
The goddess’s Yoni
(beautiful flower), sometimes also called
Shakti’s Garden is touched tenderly with fingers, mouth, nipples and
the soft tip of lingham. The
honoring of the god’s lingham or vajarah is done with reverence and love.
In the Tantra form of erotic massage,
the participants represent the embodiment of god and goddess energy –
Shakti and Shiva. Sensual Massage
to the Tantra practioner is a Dance of Unconditional Love which culminates in
Sacred Union – the joining of divine feminine to divine masculine.
The good news about sensual massage is that one does
not have to be “trained” to do it. For
the most part, one must left go of all that one has learned about sex and all
of it’s trappings. One must be
able to just let go and allow who he or she is to come forth in a sacred way
– touching to feel rather than touching to heal.
That is Sacred Touch.

Learning to love and enjoy my body was a
concept I never even thought of until I had my first sensual massage with
