The divine feminine has nothing to do with gender. It’s the energy that controls our inner mind. Discover why gendered terms & how to connect with it in this blog
If you’re someone who has been searching for the big answers — chasing after that feeling of a true purpose — I have good news for you. You’re spiritual, and your soul is seeking to chase after what will truly bring you happiness. You are searching for your dharma.
Your dharma is the reason you exist as the person that you are today. When the cosmos conceived you, it made you with a specific purpose in mind. You are meant to be here, right now. Destiny has plans for you — it crafted you with so much care.

But how do you evolve into your divinity? It has to do with a balance of energies within your body. Every person is a composite of masculine and feminine energies — yin and yang — which balances us spiritually. In the modern world, however, these energies are constantly in flux, leaving people restless and disturbed, not quite knowing why nothing feels right.
Let’s take a closer look at these cosmic forces.

What is divine feminine energy?
The divine feminine energy is the energy that controls our inner mind. It governs the intuitive side of our spirit, in all its glory. The universe itself is a cosmic force made of both the Sacred Masculine and Divine Feminine. Unfortunately, because of the way humanity has split itself into genders, this expression of both energies in balance has given way to people focusing specifically on one or the other. The sacred masculine energy focuses on material things and the physical world. And in our hyper-capitalistic society, can you guess which energy is the largest?
We have lost touch with our intuition, our true self, our feminine side that helps us connect to the spiritual world and the energy of the cosmos. The divine feminine energy is focused on intuition, feeling, nurturing, receptivity, and interconnectedness. It is about healing and growth. It is about communal harmony. And the world sure could use that right now, don’t you think?
Everyone can access the divine feminine. It isn’t necessarily connected to our gender as much as people may assume. We all have a side of ours that we suppressed to chase what society told us life is about. Isn’t it time to shed those weights?

The Qualities of Divine Feminine Energy
The divine feminine is truly what makes the best of us. Think of your role models. These are leaders, innovators, creatives — all of whom have had a profound impact on you. How do they connect with other people so well? How do they feel so much drive?
The answer? They are knowingly or unknowingly connecting to their divine feminine.
What are these qualities? Let’s go through them together.
1. Intuition
The divine feminine energy manifests in the form of very strong gut feelings about something happening. Do you ever just know something is about to go down, right before disaster strikes? That’s your divine feminine channeling itself to warn you or push you towards things that’ll help you find your dharma.

2. Creativity
Another very strong quality that arises from being in touch with your divine feminine is that your creativity gets enhanced. The divine feminine is the energy that helped create the world. The same energy dwells within you. You are a divine being of light, a channel for the universe. Reconnecting with your divine feminine will help you connect your essence to its most creative self.
3. Empathy
Empathy is another hallmark of the divine feminine. Without empathy, you cannot live with feminine energy.
It helps develop communication and intuition. Empathy is the amazing ability to put yourself in other people’s shoes, feel what they feel, and understand and accept their pain or sorrow. It can be developed fairly easily. Whenever you see someone going through a life-changing situation, positive or negative, imagine how you would feel if you were in that person’s position.
Get a deep sense of how it would feel if you were in their place. And never judge others no matter what they do. Developing empathy requires declaring war on the habit of judging people.
Judgment is toxic to relationships and is completely wrong. Because you never know that you wouldn’t do the same if you were in their place.
4. Communication
The divine woman of all of us has a strong focus on the growth and development of relationships, and for that, she needs good communication skills.
Communication is the foundation of all relationships. Women had the opportunity to develop communication in the early stages of humanity, when they cooked, met, and spent a lot of time with each other.
At the same time, communication made time more enjoyable. We talked to each other, listened to each other’s sorrows, gave advice and support, and so on.
Also, those who represent Divine Women in the home will have more responsibility for and appreciate the importance of communication. If you want to further develop the qualities of a divine woman, first improve your communication skills.
If you are in a relationship and you identify with the feminine side of that relationship, know that you have incredible communicational powers that you can use to strengthen your relationship and bond with your partner.
5. Acceptance
While the sacred masculine is about taking action and making a difference, the divine feminine, on the other hand, is based on acceptance and peace.
Now let’s not confuse acceptance with complacency. If you are in a toxic situation and grieve every day, but choose to stay and become a martyr, you are not accepting yourself as a victim but rather acting like a victim.
This is the opposite of acceptance. Acceptance comes with a bit of separation, and what used to hurt or annoy you can no longer “touch” you on an emotional level.
Why The Gendered Terms?
The words “masculine” and “feminine” are not used based on gender here. It is simply a historical remnant of the kind of qualities that used to be associated with each gender. The universe rests in a state of balance, and this is also why our ancestors have always had a history of presenting the masculine and feminine as opposite ends of a gender spectrum. In modern society, we have a better understanding of gender. We are more knowledgeable and accepting – which is a key trait of the divine feminine within all of us.

Everyone has sacred masculine and divine feminine energy within them — the goal here is to bring a balance to these opposite energies
Activating Your Divine Feminine!
Connecting to your divine feminine is not an easy task. But you have already known this side of you — it’s a piece of the cosmos all around you. To make it easier, here are some simple things that help me connect to my divine feminine!
1. Connect with the most divine woman around, our amazing Mother Earth
It’s great to spend time in nature, especially during spring. After a long hard winter, we long for that connection with Mama Earth. That’s why it feels so good when you walk in the woods or when you walk on sand or through seawater. It connects us in a primal way and opens channels in the body so that stress and other negative energy can escape through our feet. Spend time in nature.
2. Create a sacred space for yourself
It could be your favorite bedside table, or even an entire room set aside for a quiet time. These spaces can contain sacred objects that remind you of the things you love and care for. Healing stones, images of loved ones, statues, books, items from travel, etc. Often referred to as an altar, this is a place to create intentions, daydream, meditate, keep a journal, be quiet, chat, or do yoga. These spaces generate a feeling of warmth and peace, which helps you reconnect to your divine feminine.
3. Regularly practice self-care rituals that nourish and support you
You can’t pour from an empty cup. A walk in the woods, an Epsom salt bath, a day at the spa, meditation, yoga, going to the gym, lighting a candle, time with friends, herbal tea, or intimate time with a loved one — do the things that rejuvenate you.
4. Moon rituals
You can do this exercise at any time during the lunar cycle. Full moons and new moons are especially effective.
Find a place to stand by the moonlight.
Stand on the ground with your arms overhead. Breathe deeply.
Ask the divine light of the moon to enter your hands and fill your body. Breathe in the light and power of the moon. Picture the energy filling your body.
5. Stay true to yourself
Remaining honest with yourself can be the hardest part of reconnecting to the divine feminine. You have to put yourself first. Take care of yourself and honor your truth.
