☩ RITES OF EROS ☩

Erotic-Mystic Male Initiation Rites – Personal Retreat for Artists

When you go against your true nature and resign yourself to conventional, amorous entanglements, your pleasure and inspiration wane until you find yourself in self-imposed chains. Neither prestige nor affluence nor the vain attentions of a desirable woman can shut out the growing feeling of weariness; an inner voice whispers that you have forsaken something significant.

I invite you to refuse the pretence and reclaim all that you have repressed, neglected or dishonoured – your unbound, sensual, masculine presence – free from the virtues of abstinence and renunciation or the empty promise of greed and decadence.

Enter into the male initiation Rites of Eros with HER – She who is the everlasting, erotic force of nature that pervades all life. And as Her virile hero, Her immortal lover, worship the ecstatic pleasure, supernatural power and sublime beauty of sacred alchemy.

THE SERPENT PRIESTESS

Goddess Incarnate

Serpent PriestessI carry within me an untamed feminine mystery, once dormant and long-forgotten in time. My life drew to me a succession of direct experiences which recalled only fragments of this memory until, during a sojourn in Hellas (Greece), where on visiting the historic serpent-guarded sacred spring and sanctuary of Delphi, I experienced an Elysium, a prolonged ecstatic state of communion with the sensuality in nature.

She aroused in me a profound recognition and remembrance of the act of sacred alchemy, hieros gamos, or tantra maithuna, as the gateway to merge with the mysteries. This elation was followed by what can be described as years of silence from the beauty I had once witnessed. Unable to discern the source of the separation, I retreated from the world.

Then, during an all-night ritual, the connection returned, together with sequences of spontaneous trembling in my spine until they culminated in an embodiment of an elemental serpentine force. With an explosive surge of power through my body, She revealed herself as fierce, sapient, sublime, and Her nectar the elixir of life. When the episode subsided, I came to the realisation that I had undergone a rite of passage to arouse kundalini and reunite with my ancestral self – emanation of the Great Goddess, Primaeval Creatrix. I had received the gift of self-realisation.

In the years that followed, my ability to embody kundalini strengthened. She expressed herself through storytelling and chants to recall archaic memories. She revealed the significance of the ordeals of male initiation rites to re-enact the universal myth of the Goddess and Her dying-and-rising immortal lover.

These revelations prompted me to seek confirmation in the scholarly study of ancient cultures, their sacred myths and traditions. On discovering the many synchronicities with what I had personally experienced, I became resolute to fulfil my calling.
