Sacred Sensuality: Herbs & Crystals to enhance Sex


Oh Sex, the most taboo and arguably desired commodity for humanity. We create life through sex and are one of the few animals on the planet that actually derive pleasure from having solo or partner sex. But what happens when sex has become so easily obtainable and hook ups have become the norm? If you ask me you loose the magic of sex and it becomes just another hit of serotonin. Who wants that, certainly not me. I love sex but I also love celibacy. To me sex is magick and I practice my magick selectively as all are not worthy of my energy. I want my partner to know my body, my mind and my turn ons. That connection ultimately gives me amazing sex with incredible climaxes and a deeper connection to my partner. Yeah sure, you can argue all you want that hooks ups are nice but earth shattering , intentional, witchy sex with a reliable partner you love and feel passion for is way nicer. Below I’m outlining my favorite herbs and crystals that have given me a deeper connection to my sacred sensuality by myself or with a partner. So feel free to try them and let me know how it went. xx
