We have such a messed up society around sexuality in the United States! And I suppose that’s putting it lightly. It can get vicious out there, and I believe it is a rare person who can grow up in this country without conflicted ideas about what’s okay about sexual expression and sexual identity. In particular, it is hard to feel like being a sexual being and spiritual one can go hand in hand unless you are practicing tantra or are part of some religious cult.
But if we are spiritual beings having a human experience, why should our natural sexual inclinations be divorced from that? White Trumpet Lily flower essence (also known as Easter Lily) is used to help integrate spirituality with healthy sexuality and/or sexual identity. In particular, it can help people who learned to devalue themselves either as sexual beings or as spiritual beings because they were taught that one cannot include the other. Sometimes this manifests as a “Madonna/whore” split: rejecting sexual expression as “lower” in nature in a committed relationship or flying to the opposite extreme of seeking “naughty” thrill-seeking sexual encounters, almost always outside of marriage. White Trumpet Lily helps a person believe in the sacred purity of their souls and their bodies as one piece so sexual expression can come from a place of wholeness, even a sacred communion between two loving beings.
