I want to talk about my relationship.
About what my relationship has taught me about myself.
Things I didn’t know. Things whose power and implications shake me to the very bottom of my soul.
Also, sex. Mmmkay?
A Deeply Feminine Woman
I still have so much trauma around it that it’s physically difficult to type, but out from under all the awful things we say about the feminine, I am squeaking in my little voice: “yeah…that’s me.”
My whole life I’ve just wanted to have my feelings and nurture everyone and have tons of babies.
Sure I was a competitive ski racer and a debate superstar, a straight A student, and I certainly didn’t spend a second on my looks.
I learned to develop my masculine. Which is good and very important. But it didn’t change the cant of my soul.
I love men. I love flirting with them. I love radiating beauty and I love them watching me. I love challenging them on their purpose, inviting them back into their bodies. I love being deeply present in anger and sadness, letting wildness tear through me and open us both up.
I love being submissive, caught, tamed, taken by someone powerful enough to do it. I adore being fucked.
I love receiving
And all of it terrifies me, of course. Because it’s very much not how my internal committee thinks a modern, effective woman should act.
But it makes me so very happy.
I’m never as satisfied as I am when I’m challenging the world to be strong enough to take me.
This is what my relationship is about
At one level, at least. We’re also about a lot of other things.
David (that’s my love) has loved me deeper, stronger, sweeter, harder and more thoroughly than anyone, ever.
I’ve had rollicking orgasms just hugging him. He’s opened up tender, hurting places in my soul and adored me through the resultant earthquakes.
He fucks me into tears, into such deep connection with the wild, passionate, hurting, angry, powerful woman inside of me.
And when he’s in a place of deep masculine he finds this “cute.” Never did I think someone could call my sobbing wrathful soul “cute” with such respect that it feels akin to worship.
And we want kids
I’m going to have his children from this same place of deep connection. He’s going to enter me and change me from the inside out.
How I move, how I look, how I feel…all completely transformed because of our love. Because of the miraculous power and strange beauty of sex in this world.
We’re going to surrender to the whole crazy history of humanity, to affirm that we want it to go forward. We’re going to pray wild prayers with our bodies for the privilege of inviting another soul into this fabulous life.
It’s Terrifying
It’s all well and good when it happens in the safety of our beautiful sanctuary home.
Or when we’re spending time with someone who “gets it.”
But out in a world filled with people who have their stuff?
Women and men with distorted polarities, worry, fear, anxiety and envy who don’t know that it’s just their stuff?
I’m so afraid of being crucified, but that fear doesn’t change the truth. (The fear is just my stuff.)
The truth is that when I look at him, I feel a crazy lightness in my chest, and I want to keep looking.
He is so free and genuine with the world that I think my heart will stop. I want to scream at everyone interacting with him: “Do you understand how very authentic he’s being right now? That’s his heart he’s using to speak to you. Don’t you dare step on it!”
I know anything could happen. But no matter where things go from here, I won’t regret living this ecstatically.
Learning
So I’m learning to live my life with my heart wide open and calling. To the constant yearning for him, and the yearning through him to my own masculine, the world’s masculine, the divine masculine.
I work on my business and love him. Clean the house and love him. Drive my car and love him. Talk to my friends and love him.
I’m learning to accept and befriend, even honor, that great hole in my life where I long for him. To make space for my crazy wild feminine, how it is the hole, and the whole.
But mostly I’m learning to love. He’s teaching my whole spirit how to love.
So Anyways…
That’s what I worked on last week. Not like it was earth shattering or anything. Not like everything’s changed. Oh…wait…
So yes, my Rally was pretty powerful.
It would have been nice if I’d been able to learn it all without spending so much time listening to my monsters, but in the end I got it.
Is there anything I want to clarify or expand on?
Yes.
I want to mention that we are also very human. That we are frequently scared and fighting and pig-headed and highly critical of flaws in ourselves and each other. Nothing superhuman here. Just broken, hurting people learning to love each other. That’s what’s so beautiful.
I didn’t have an orgasm until I was 19. I didn’t have one with someone else until I was 21. I’m 24 now. I’m not naturally good at intimacy and I’m not naturally good at sex.
This level of connection doesn’t have to be something you want, but if you do, it is entirely possible for you. Because it was possible for me, and I’m pretty damn fucked up.
One day I’m going to teach this. I’m going to get a bunch of women together in a room and we’re going to practice surrendering to ecstasy.
In the meantime, I am finding my voice to talk about it. Yay for voices and sharing and truth and ecstasy. So happy to have all of these things right now.
Comments!
Super strong sovereignty force fields here! Maybe this post is a mirror?
At any rate, we’re all going to avoid giving unsolicited advice, criticism, or psychoanalysis.
Do you have something alive in you from reading this? Some juicy beautiful story or insight to share?
Or maybe you want to leave some sparkles or an echo, or to sit this one out.
I’m excited to hear from you (or not).
Much love,
Rhiannon






Leaving you some extra-sparkly heart-shaped sparkles.
Do you have something alive in you from reading this? Yes. Yes I do.
One trillion billion sparkles for the raw, wild, alive power of you and the stunning beauty of this post. And the feminine. And your vision.
And silent retreat, for now, on everything else. Except I just stared at the wall to feel and think for about half an hour, so <3 <3 <3 something's going on.
Thanks and blessings.
Hand on heart sigh. I am inspired by the beauty and bravery and fierce sweetness and love in this. Blue and purple and gold sparkles all around!
Wow. Thank you so much. There’s so much important stuff here for me, but the thing I’m getting right now is that it’s possible to be feminine without having to be femme. This is very validating for me. Thank you.
Lots of respect for your courage and openness in exploring this. Also, HELL YES! It makes me sad that it has to take courage for a woman to express her fierce femininity, but it makes me hopeful and proud and wildly, fiercely sympathetic to witness it. Thank you.
I relate to your description of how the loving energy in a relationship can compel a couple to have a baby. It’s not because my career is already established, not because my clock is ticking, not because it seems like it would be the time to do it if I’m ever going to; but because love compels it, because our cells, in both bodies, vibrate together so intensely and want so badly to create more vibrant cells.
I also wanted to share that the other night when we were making love, he noticed my shoulders were shrugged up tightly and he softly said to let them relax. It occurred to me just then that the tension was only there because I was bracing myself with the sexual energy tensed up in my shoulders. I relaxed them, directing that energy to move into my vagina and orgasmed right then.
It’s amazing how there’s always more to realize about ourselves.
Thank you for your openness!! It means so much, and it grants the readers the conscious permission to be open within themselves, to not be ashamed, to not hide from themselves.
I’m so glad I saw your link on facebook and gave it a click.
Yes. Yes to this post. I want to quote the whole thing and say, “this resonated with me, inspired me, yes.” But I’ll just choose a few quotes.
“I’m never as satisfied as I am when I’m challenging the world to be strong enough to take me.”
“We’re going to pray wild prayers with our bodies for the privilege of inviting another soul into this fabulous life.”
“To make space for my crazy wild feminine, how it is the hole, and the whole.”
Yes yes yes!
