Ooooh I just lapped all of this up. Thank you! My relationship with my Yoni has evolved over the years, from shame and fear around ‘being normal’ as a teenage girl, to feeling a lot of negativity towards her while struggling with vaginismus in my twenties, and now after giving birth to my first daughter (and having photographic evidence of her crowning) I just cannot ever see her in any light other than the most incredible portal of power. I love this idea of the Yoni Flower project, I see Yonis in nature all the time... on tree bark, in moss and roots, in leafs and flowers... it’s magnificent!
I think we need to celebrate her more in the world!
Definitely feeling the Scorpio vibes especially under the dark moon right now. Xx
Awh thank you Lauren! Thank you for being so open with your experience, I'm only recently aware of vaginismus. It sounds like an awful experience, and although I don't think my experience is quite as intense, I know that I, and likely many women, carry such great tension in our Yoni. I'm so happy you had an empowering birth experience, more of that will genuinely change the world! Yes we need to reinstate Yoni worship, I love the recent revival of the Sheela na Gigs!
