She is older than creation, for she is responsible for it. She contains all things- visible and invisible, in the cosmos and on Earth. But what saddens me is that now, women are losing their sacredness, power and intuition with time. Health issues, relationship problems and that feeling of disconnectedness make the problem. Feminine energy goes with the wave. And after a long time, she is now emerging on the planet again. The best thing we can do is to align with this change and connect to the sacred feminine energy within us by just doing these 8 things-
Tips to become a high value woman
Practices to raise the sacred feminine-
Feel her presence
- Follow your regular routine and do those thousands of things you usually do. At the same time, reserve a place in your mind for the Goddess. Anytime during the day, take a break to remember her presence- the presence of the sacred feminine.
- Remember who you are- a divine child, part of the planet’s consciousness and a community member.
- Remember where you are- sheltered by the mother goddess, living on the Earth as the Shakti’s child who is older than the creation itself.
- Let us keep the Goddess in the heart.
- Let her blessings and creativity flow through you no matter what task you perform.

Wear the Goddess’s jewellery
- Accessorise with a simple crescent moon, silver flower, or a ring with a meaningful semiprecious stone (moonstone, tourmaline, or turquoise).
- Remember, you are not wearing this jewellery to show off but to help yourself remember.
- You can even try wearing yantras.
- The jewellery will act as a symbol of the Goddess.

Period hacks that worked for me
Chanting
- Talk to yourself or sing to yourself. We all do it all the time anyway. Like we are programming our minds to be either positive or negative.
- We create our own consciousness, and what we create in our own consciousness is what we also make in the planet’s consciousness.
- Would it not be better for us to make the place inside our minds liveable?
- Some ways to become a more conscious being is by practising mindfulness, silent prayer, awareness, meditation, affirmations, and chanting.
- You can try any of the above methods. My favourite is chanting.
- For that, choose a mantra.
- Mantra sets up vibrations that have mind-blowing effects on your mind and body.
- Chant the mantra softly and for as long as your breath lasts. Let the vibration from it swirl around your throat, ears, and heart.
- There is no specific time for chanting- you can do it anytime, loudly or under your breath.
Simple tricks to look more feminine
Feel the energy
We need to understand the energies we feel while worshipping and what shakti is and how we respond to her. We need to be clear about how the energy is exchanged.
Before worshipping, answer these questions-
- What kinds of energies are we invoking in ourselves while performing a ritual?
- How will we transform while practising this ritual?
- What is the source of those energies?
- What other kinds of energies are invoked in us during this ritual?

Set up an alter
You can put your altar anywhere you want to, within the limits of your living conditions, and decorate it in any way you want to. You can build a permanent altar on a chest or shelf or set up a temporary altar on the floor, in any room, and outdoors. Your alter is your personal space. You can show all your creativity while decorating it.
You need a picture or statue of a goddess you worship and the things that represent four elements.
Put the elemental symbols in the following directions-
- Earth- North
- Air- West
- Water- South
- Fire- East
You can have crystals, wands, feathers or anything you like.
Make sure your altar is the place you use for your prayers. Do not do anything else in your alter. Also, do not let anyone use the things you use for the rituals.
Basic ritual steps
Rituals have an essential role when you want to tap into your sacred feminine side. What you are following and whether you are a beginner or expert doesn’t matter.
These are the basic steps you ought to follow in any ritual-
- Purification– For purifying your aura or space, use visualisation, sage and saltwater.
- Casting the circle- The circle is cast, or closed, by calling in the powers of the four directions, the four elements, the Goddess and the God. When you cast a circle, you do not move outside of it.
- Setting the intention– It is the most crucial step. It is where you declare the reason for performing the ritual. Your intention could be for your relationship, healing, prosperity or world peace.
- Multiplying power- This is the step in which you visualise the energies multiplying 100 times to make your manifestation a reality. You can also dance, clap, sing or chant to raise the power.
- Visualisation– It is where you make your intention come to life through meditation by visualising every detail.
- Grounding the energy– Through this step, you ground your energy and surrender to Mother Earth. After this, you must thank all the invisible powers for being a part of your ritual and then open your circle.
Goddess meditation
This becomes my favourite meditation when I feel disconnected. You can do it anytime.
Before you begin, sit or lie down in a comfortable position.
- Imagine a bright, pulsing stream of golden light moving clockwise around your body.
- See and feel it start in your heart, and just let it go round and round for a few minutes.
- Do not force the light, just let it flow.
- After a few minutes, let the light become strong.
- Turn the light into a golden helix that spirals around your whole body. Move it round and round from the top of your head to the base of your spine or heels.
- Really feel this energy, feel its warmth and strength, and let your body sway.
- Call the Goddess to yourself and feel her womb showering her energy into the golden helix.
- Feel her traits and energy becoming a part of you.
- Breathe with the Goddess and become one with her.
- This is when you know she is you, and you are here. There is no difference.
- Whatever affirmations or wisdom you receive after merging with her, let your being get soaked with it.
- Direct the energy towards your spine when it gets as strong as you want it to be. Let it move up and down your spine for about one minute, take several deep breaths, put the palms of your hands flat on your womb, and allow all this energy to drain from your root chakra into the Earth.
- This ritual is great when you want to embody the sacred feminine.
As you connect to the sacred feminine side inside you, you will be surprised how your life will completely transform. I can say it because I live it.
