This is an excerpt from Pagan Portals Sacred Sex and Magick, a book written by the community of the Web PATH Centre.
Sexuality is magick and transformation. Isn’t everything different
after deeply satisfying sexual experiences? Orgasm raises power
and releases it within the body, sending it outward. When a
magickal intent has been formed between the lovers, then that
power is directed toward their shared purpose. Balancing male
and female energy in yourself with sexual orgasm, within
yourself and a partner of opposite sex, or within different aspects
of inner selves in partners of same sex brings a spiritual
awareness to otherwise physical encounters. Simultaneous
orgasm is not required to balance the energy. We are able to assist don’t come at the same time.
Sexual expression is a dynamic training ground for healing,
openness, transformation, creativity and love. Ironically it is also
so much fun, humankind is able to procreate and love without
consciously engaging spirit at all, so most of us have missed the
point and the experiences of spiritually ecstatic sex. Our
ancestors may have done better in tribal practices. Or not. Maybe
the priests and priestesses understood the mysteries that escaped
the general public. Knowing the possibilities available to us
when sacred sex and magick combine empowers our lives.
Men and women in the Web wrote this book to share common
and uncommon knowledge about the magick of human
sexuality. Magick and sex are sacred. Perhaps this book will give
the entire aspect of sacred sexual priestesses in the Temples a
different interpretation. Perhaps it will inspire people to discuss
their own needs for magick and ecstasy. Perhaps it will create
powerful spells that transform us or the world we live in. We
envision big magick.
In this little book we discuss both our deep relationships in
magick and sex and those in short-term energetic lovemaking.
Both empower magick. Committed couples build a history
together. They practice sex magick that takes great leaps of
mindfulness into the universe and entwines with the Gods. They
have time to work on intention, technique, and conscious
merger. On the other hand, lovers who may not have long-term
commitments use their joyous intercourse for magick in the here
and now. As long as their communication is honest, an it harm
none, they do as they will. We also know that individuals who
have no human partners in sacred sex can work this magick in
solitary, calling on the inner male and female to empower their
intentions. Beyond that, many of us work with Spirit Lovers to
experience a sexual sensual dynamic out of body. All of these
experiences whether coupled, solitary or temporary work toward magickal ends.
In exploring sacred sex and magick, we seek individual
transcendence and merger with the Divine. Our egos expand and
lose their fear of annihilation. Our spirits embrace the essential
soul of All Being, ours and the Other. One gateway to the Infinite
is through sacred sex. We write this book to prop open that gate
and invite you to enter. We expect to join forces with the Gods
and Goddesses in this work. We hope you do too.
