The Sacred Intimate

Today's Sacred Intimate bridges the worlds of Spirit and Sex, creating a safe and sacred space for healing, releasing blocked energies, and opening to a higher possibility of eros and sensuality in one's life. A Sacred Intimate can be a man or a woman who provides spirit-sex integration-healing opportunities through counseling/coaching, education and somatic engagement with conscious intention.

Such men and women engage the physical body, as well as etheric bodies, and are adepts at supporting and nurturing healthful integration of an individual's spiritual-sexual aspects.

SEX, and sexuality comprise a much larger container than what is commonly thought of today. Many people think of copulation or intercourse when "sex" is discussed. Sex, as engaged with by the Sacred Intimate is an energy aspect that ignites one's life with Eros -the vital force of living. When in proper balance, sexual energy nourishes and inspires one's life.

These Sacred Intimates provide a safe, sacred space to release "stuck" energies and open to an expanded experience of Eros —which has a healthful, holistic resonance effect on one's life.

Sacred Intimates have the ability to provide immediate intimacy with whomever is before them. This intimacy is not resulting from a personal connection with the client, but comes from the Sacred Intimate's training, and inherent talent, to reach a state of transpersonal divine-recognition of the person before them.

From this non-egoic state, in a sacred container of engagement, the Sacred Intimate initiates the client into a state of bliss and ecstasy, adeptly "working with" and nourishing deep archetypal energies of the soul.

Sacred Intimates were once called: Hetaera, Hierodule, Naditu, Devadasi. These were women dedicated to serving the goddess of love in her temples, providing Sacred Intimate, transpersonal, sexual healing service that merges spirituality with sex in sacred ceremony.

In ancient times there were “Love Temples” devoted to the goddess of Love where temple priestesses—Sacred Intimates or "prostitutes" provided a vital service to the holistic health of the community.

Far from profane prostitution’s appeal to egoic sexual desires and release of tension, the ceremonies performed by the temple priestesses connected spirit with sex through ritual and intention. A man didn't go to the temple to purchase sex, he went to request a ceremony that was significant to his life circumstances -which he paid for. That ceremony included sex acts, with spiritual intention, and in the 'container' of ceremony devoted to the goddess.

Most of the ancient Sacred Intimates were women, priestesses, who were supported by a priesthood who assisted in the initiation, training, caring for, guiding and protecting priestess adepts at the temple.

The book “The Sacred Prostitute: Eternal Aspect of the Feminine” by Nancy Qualls-Corbett, describes the sacred prostitute’s raison d’etre (pg. 40):   “…was to worship the goddess in love-making, thereby bringing the goddess’ love into the human sphere.” —read more.
