How to Embrace Your Divine Feminine Power and Live a Balanced Life

Divine feminine power is essential to living a balanced life. It allows you to step into your fierceness while balancing it with softness. 

But, in our society, feminine power isn’t given the respect it deserves. Softness isn’t valued. Instead, our society highly rewards masculine energy, which includes traits such as: 

• Action
• Resilience 
• Strength

When you push through challenges and keep going no matter what – our society honors that. When you keep taking action after action, never giving yourself time to pause and reflect, our culture says, “Great job, keep going!”

But, after all that effort, it feels like you haven’t gotten anywhere. The stress on your shoulders piles up. You experience burnout while the relationships with your loved ones suffer. 

I believe you’re experiencing an imbalance between your feminine and masculine power. I’ve seen this happen time and again throughout my years as a spiritual counselor and someone who has studied cultures that value feminine power. 

To be clear, both energies are essential to life, and both energies are powerful. But there needs to be a balance. We tend to overuse our masculinity simply because our society encourages it. 

But you can bring order back into your life by understanding the divine feminine power and energy within you. By embracing the qualities and traits of this inner power, you’ll stop feeling burnt out and find the balance you’ve been looking for. 

What Is Divine Feminine Power?

Divine feminine power is an energy that lives within all of us. It provides a much-needed balance to the masculine energy. Through the lens of Buddhist psychology and shamanic cultures, we often associate the divine feminine power with energetic qualities and values such as:

• Nurturing: Women grow babies in their wombs, bring them into the world, and sustain life physically, mentally, and emotionally. They provide life-giving and nurturing energy to their children and all aspects of life. 

• Intuition: The feminine energy is a guide that helps us connect to our inner truth and knowledge about ourselves, other people, and nature. 

• Cycles: The cycles within a woman’s body reflect the cycles of the changing seasons, the waxing and waning of the moon, and the metaphor of life, death, and rebirth.

• Community: Feminine power recognizes the importance of communities, building relationships, and having mutual care for each other because it sees the interconnectedness of everything. 

• Healing: Shamans often work with divine feminine power to heal emotional wounds, restore balance, and promote emotional and communal well-being.

• Compassion: The feminine has deep empathy for the suffering of all beings and a desire to relieve that suffering. 

• Mindfulness: The ability to remain in the present moment and stay receptive with openness and curiosity. 
• Acceptance: The feminine power creates an intuitive understanding that everything is happening for a reason. It encourages you to practice acceptance – even in hard times.

Even though feminine power is not based on gender, it can be easy to define the qualities of divine feminine power by the traits you see in women. You can balance out your masculine energy by calling on your feminine power and embracing those qualities.

How Divine Feminine Power Balances the Masculine 

By learning to understand and embrace your feminine power, you can assess the masculine power within you. But like every area of life, balance is key. When there’s no balance, problems and dysfunctions occur.

Masculine power – which is applauded and encouraged in our society – often shows up as traits and qualities such as:

• Action
• Strength
• Logic
• Independence
• Achievement
• Stability
• Assertiveness
• Competition
• Rationality
• Protection

When in partnership with the feminine, these traits are healthy. Because with an equal balance of both masculine and feminine power, you’re able to live a healthy and stable life.

But imbalances start to occur when you rely too heavily on the masculine while neglecting your divine feminine power. 

A Metaphor for How Imbalance Shows up in Your Life

Imagine life as the river. The current of the water represents the natural cycle of life. The boat is you, and the two oars you hold represent masculine and feminine power.

When your masculine and feminine powers work together (to navigate the current of life), the boat moves smoothly down the river. 

But when you rely on one oar excessively (the masculine) while you neglect the other (the feminine), the boat can only move in circles. This leads to frustration, exhaustion, and stagnation. 

Sometimes, the current of the river can change. So it’s normal to rely on one oar more than the other during certain seasons of life.

But over-reliance on either power leads to stagnation in your journey. 

Release Soul Wounds That Affect Your Feminine Power

The overcompensation of masculine power can often result from past trauma and soul wounds. This pain can stem from stressful experiences in childhood or any stage of life. 

When these traumas are left unhealed, they can cause disuse or rejection of the divine feminine power.

Most of these traumas are unconscious, and you’re unaware of their hold on you. All you feel is:

• Burnt out
• Exhausted
• Stressed
• Unemotional
• Disconnected
• Detached

Past trauma and soul wounds cause you to believe (on an unconscious level) that being in your divine feminine power is unsafe. But when you heal at a soul level, you will naturally step into your feminine power. 

How Spiritual Counseling Can Help You Heal

Healing your divine feminine soul wounds and past trauma doesn’t have to be intimidating – and you don’t have to do it alone. 

As a spiritual counselor, I’m here to help you heal at a soul-deep level. To release soul wounds that keep you from embracing your divine feminine power. I guide you through ancient and powerful healing modalities such as:

• Depth hypnosis
• Applied shamanic counseling
• Shamanic healing practices

Using these shamanic and Buddhist approaches, you’ll release soul wounds that no longer serve you and keep you in your masculine power. 

Because you’re unaware of deeply rooted trauma (hey, none of us are – it’s totally okay), working with an experienced and empathetic spiritual counselor is crucial. 

I’ll be there every step of the way. I’ll guide you deeper into your intuitive knowing and bring about more powerful transformations and healings. This will allow your divine feminine power to come quickly back into balance.

Step Into Your Power 

You have two very different but equally important powers within you – the masculine and divine feminine. 

While our culture values the qualities and traits of the masculine, tapping into your divine feminine power (while already in your masculine) will stabilize you. So you can avoid burnout and stagnation.

This unconscious neglect of your feminine power could be the result of past trauma and soul wounds. But when you work with a spiritual counselor who offers healing approaches for your divine feminine power, you’ll learn to effortlessly step into this energy and live a more balanced life.
