"description": "# **OPENING TO EROS**\n\n# \n\n# **♀**\n\n \n\n**A journey of homecoming to the pulse of aliveness at the core of your being.** \n \n\nWe live in a world dominated by a patriarchal value system, which has impacted our ideas, expectations and ways of existing. \n\nThis has valued linear over cyclical. Destination over journey.\n\nAnd this has also applied to sexuality - as something to do, perform or hide.\n\nRather than a way to be. \n\n**Eros, as an essence to exist as. A current.**\n\n**Cyclical. Pulsing. Ebb & flowing.** \n \n\n#### **You're invited to join a coven of 13 women to journey Opening to Eros.**\n\nWe begin with the Taurus Full Moon, on Monday 26th October.\n\nAnd with Venus, representing Inanna, in the underworld. \nthe descent of Inanna is a living myth representing a pathway of women's journeys. \n_How might we descend & rise again, rooted?_\n\n**Connect to your primordial life force** \n**& reclaim your deep feminine wisdom.**\n\nVulva as Altar, Eros as Guide. \n \n\n### **What to expect;**\n\n- Sharing Circles\n- Embodiment Practice\n- Sensual Exploration\n- Self Pleasure Practices\n- Pleasure Anatomy\n- Nervous System Tending\n- Instinct Reclamation\n- Witnessing\n- Emotional Landscaping, Release & Integration\n- Eros Emergence\n- Connection\n- Response-ability: the power to respond\n- Home~Play & Rituals\n\nWhilst each week may include some of the above, we will be moving with the current of aliveness and **journeying with eros emergence.**\n\nThe flow of our online circles will loosely be as follows: \n\n- Opening\n- Theme Exploration (verbal & sense-ual explorations)\n- Practice &/or Ritual\n- Journalling &/or Sharing\n- Closing\n\nWith practices and rituals given to journey in your own space between live calls to support integration and depth of journey.\n\nYou are also invited to book a 1-1 with Taila to go deeper into your personal experience of eros.\n\n_ **Taila will hold the space to serve what is needed, bringing her human-ness, experience and leadership whilst also inviting yours.** _ \n \n\n> “A powerful alchemical container to explore our inner landscapes, to witness and be witnessed, to purge and transmute. A safe and held space to do some deeply transformational work if you wish to go there, or simply to come into awareness of what is lurking in the subconscious. Also just a fantastic group of women & womb folk…” ~ Participant, Voice of the Womb\n\n \n\n## **♀**\n\n## Intention for Opening to Eros\n\nMoving beyond patriarchal heteronormative paradigms of sexuality. We have been taught to look to the male gaze for approval, acceptance and validation of our sexuality, attractiveness and expression. Women who step out the box have been publicly shamed and humiliated. Together **we feel and taste the unique essence of our eros from the inside out.** \n \nA space to weave with a web of women who are willing to strip back to their es~sense~ual nature. \nFor you to have held space to **unravel the conditioning, stories and numbness associated with sexuality & eros** in a space of loving witness, growing compassionate celebration of all that you are and allowing the current of aliveness to anchor you home. From here, we remember our power and capacity to create as cyclical reciprocal beings.\n\na space to allow emotions \nto drop to feelings \nto drop to sensations. \n \nin order to experience the true essence of **Our Humanity** in an unfolding dance of energy in motion. \n\nSupported by a framework that allows us to move informed by container, body and the group field woven with the current. \n \nEach woman's truth and essence will weave a tapestry to be **honoured, witnessed, expressed** , and from here, \nyou will access your inner wisdom, knowing, Gnosis to stand in your erotic power and create a more beautiful world. \n \n\n#### Together, we remember,\n\n#### Together, we reclaim;\n\n#### our unique relationship to Eros. \n\n## **Who is this for? **\n\nwomen and afab loves comfortable with being in a space that may centre \n\n- the womb,\n- b🩸eeding,\n- p🐱ssy anatomy\n- female experience//conditioning\n\nthe space is not intended as therapy, and whilst it may feel therapeutic, if you are currently in a space of active trauma we would encourage you to seek 1-1 therapeutic support so that you can be held more deeply where you are right now. You're so welcome to reach out to Taila to have a chat about what options there may be for you. \n \n\n## **Gathering in Temple **\n\nRe-membering the sacred and ancient red-thread lineage & practice of circling, each gathering serves to deepen trust as another step along the journey through many cycles & spirals. Developing intimacy with the Temple herself and those who come to gather every week. You have a seat that only you can occupy, and it is there for whenever you are ready.\n\n_ **the connection between women has been severed by thousands of years of oppression and patriarchal domination, and at times it can be challenging to gather with other females. we invite you to journey as deep as you feel comfortable, walk with honesty, authenticity and the courage to share your experience of beauty, triggers & challenges as part of individual;+collective whole-ing & healing. At all times you are encouraged to journey Opening to Eros at the pace, depth & flavour of your own body wisdom & inner knowing ❤️‍** _ \n \n\n## The Container;\n\nThe container is here as a framework and guide, throughout this creation process as well as in the journey ahead, we will remain open to ~ & humbled by ~ the ever unfolding mystery, the current of eros. Listening, shifting and responding. \n \n**Dates; (all calls at 7pm GMT, for approximately 2.5 hours)**\n\n- **26th October: ROOT**\n- **2nd November: HEART**\n- **9th November: VULVA**\n- **16th November: No Circle. Integration Week & Deeper Home Ritual**\n- **23rd November: MUSE**\n- **30th November: POWER**\n- **7th December: RECLAMATION & REMEMBRANCE**\n\n \n\n### ROOT\n\nWe begin Opening to Eros by tending to our roots. Roots represent a sense of belonging, home and containment. \nBelonging to self, others, the earth & the mystery. \n \nYou will cultivate an awareness of your nervous system, so you may descend into the body and present moment.\n\n_ **What are your values, boundaries, intentions?** _\n\nAs we Open to Eros we set the container by **resting into lineages that honour female cyclical wisdom & power. ** \nYou may be the first in your recent lineage to have the opportunity to choose new stories, new maps. \n \nThe female body has long been regarded as the root of all sin. The erotic either hypersexualised or outright rejected, embodied in the madonna / whore split. \nTogether we sew the seeds for sense-uality, sexuality & relationship with eros to be **rooted in truth, love & liberation. ** \nFor your erotic essence to be uniquely yours before anyone else.\n\nAligning with Venus~Inanna’s star point, a new phase & new script is taking root.\n\n_ **What personal and cultural stories relating to your erotic essence are you carrying? ** _\n\n \n\n### **HEART**\n\nIt can be tender when we reconnect, or perhaps connect for the first time outside of conditioned responses, to our erotic power. \n**We enter here through the heart. The breasts.**\n\nWomen often feel like they are failing when measured against the dominator paradigm. Suppressing emotionality and cyclical shifts to pretend to perform as a consistent linear robot (male).\n\nLabeled things like; \n‘Too emotional, not horny enough.’ \nor \n‘too sexual/powerful, not loving enough’.\n\nOur theme and practices will support coming into contact with the raw beauty of your heart; **un-shaming emotions, taking the armour off.** \nExperiencing how rage, grief and ‘heavier’ emotions and sensations as vital expressions for eros. \n**Cultivating range** in your expression. \nDisrupting the stories entrenched within. \n\nWith tenderness & courage, **meeting that which lives within your heart and breasts**. \nSo that you may notice & acknowledge your true nature.\n\nShifting from performative sexuality into true erotic innocence.\n\n_ **What does your heart desire?** _\n\n \n\n### VULVA\n\n**What do you call her? ** \nNaming of female pleasure anatomy has predominantly come through male discourse and male scientists. Female sexual anatomy (and health in general) is largely still misunderstood, by men, the system and also by ourselves. \nWe were not educated well, and sources are still rubbish and heavily influenced by patriarchy. \n_Can you believe the clitoris in her fullness was only properly documented by Helen O'Connell in 2005! _\n\nBy naming your body and understanding your anatomy you gain autonomy.\n\nYour vulva ~ pussy ~ yoni is a gateway from the external to the internal; a bridge between worlds. \nMuch can be stored here and in the wider landscape of your pelvic bowl.\n\nWith a **vulva mapping ritual** , you'll get to know your body's landscape, honour her stories and begin to **trace new pathways through her peaks and valleys**. \n \n_“My vulva, the horn,_ \n_The boat of heaven, _ \n_Is full of eagerness like the young moon…_ \n_Man of my heart, plow my vulva” _ \n_ ⁃ Inanna to her husband Dumuzi _ \n \nThe Descent of Inanna is from a time before patriarchal dominator culture; \n**Inanna openly and freely delights in her own sexuality, body, vulva and her sensate aliveness ~ you get to experience that too.** \n \n_At the altar of vulva you pray,_ \n_what does She have to say?_ \n \n \n\n### _Integration Week_\n\nNo live circle, you will have a deeper home ritual and may like to join us at [Wild & Holy; The Wellspring](https://dandelion.events/e/wildholywellspring) in this time (You receive £55 off if you join both, just ask me for the code) \n \n \n\n### MUSE\n\nWe return together, having crossed through the threshold of Vulva, to meet the Muse; \neach woman animated by Eros, by the deep feminine current, expressing her essence \nas a way to stand in her power and create a more beautiful world beyond domination and oppression. \n\nso you may have the relationship to sexuality, eros & creativity that you desire. \n\nMuch of eros lives in the mystery, in **the emergent current of aliveness** ~ a river seeking to flow through well tended banks. \nA pulse that is already there, not something you must acquire. \nOnly that you must un-become who you thought you ‘should’ be, in order to **express as who you truly are.** \nTo tend those banks you will journey practices that support shedding shame, honouring numbness and living rooted in your erotic power. \n \nAllowing your essence to express through presence, awareness, sound, breath, movement & touch. \nWe will be witnessed by, and witness the muse of, each woman in our coven.\n\nSo you may taste your essence and live as the expression of this current of aliveness; \ncyclical, \nwise, \ntrue. \n \n_ **When you reclaim what was stolen, repressed & denied, ** _ \n_ **how does your erotic innocence express?** _\n\n \n\n### **POWER**\n\nEros awakens a relational power within and between us. A current that has the capacity to support a shift from ‘power over’ dominator dynamics to ‘power with’. \n\nPower with allows for collaboration, a recognition that we are stronger together on an embodied level. \n**An ecology of empowerment.** \nWhen one woman rises, we all rise. \n\nYou will root into your inner compass to allow eros to support your expression in the world. \nWith exploration through embodied practice of what holds you back from claiming your power, you allow the intelligence of eros to support you to experience the truth of your expression. Cultivating a new relationship with power, boundaries & desires. \n \n\n> “We have been raised to fear the yes within ourselves, our deepest cravings. For the demands of our released expectations lead us inevitably into actions which will help bring our lives into accordance with our needs, our knowledge, our desires. And the fear of our deepest cravings keeps them suspect, keeps us docile and loyal and obedient, and leads us to settle for or accept many facets of our oppression as women.” \n> \n> ― Audre Lorde, Uses of the Erotic: The Erotic as Power\n\nEntering into the living entity of right relationship, where agreements and boundaries are living instruments rather than fixed destinations. Adjusting when edges are met. Shifting, adapting, according to personal truth within relationality. \n \n_ **What would you be a stand for if you didn’t hide away from expressing? ** _ \n_ **If you weren’t scared of judgement or rejection? ** _ \n_ **What would it feel like to be welcomed in your power? ** _\n\n \n\n### RECLAMATION & REMEMBRANCE\n\nA remembrance of how to be guided home by our own pleasure and body. As you reclaim your innate erotic intelligence and power, you will tend to your capacity to ask for what you need, value yourself and become resourced. No longer people pleasing or non-consensually shape shifting, you recognise just how deeply needed your essence rooted in erotic truth is.\n\n**You become your own permission slip. ** \n \nReclaiming your wholeness, with all that makes you uniquely you. In our closing ceremony we celebrate & integrate your journey through Opening to Eros. \n**Together we are weaving a new narrative that honours our body, our eros, the earth ~ and the relationships between us all. ** \n \n\n_ **In what ways can you be resourced to walk forward rooted in eros?** _ \n_ **What would support look like for you? ** _ \n_ **What are the practices, rituals and tools you wish to lean into?** _ \n_ ** ** _ \n \n\n### with integration resources & rituals,\n\n### plus an optional 1-1 with Taila Rose to go deeper.\n\n \n\n \n\n## **♀** The Lineage of Venus **♀**\n\nWe bring awareness to the Venus cycle in order to rest into a wider cosmology, a 251(ish) year cycle. A cycle within a cycle, approximately every 8 years making a near perfect 5 pointed star, the spiral dance of creation. And within these longer cycles, Venus also experiences a 19 month cycles. These cycles within cycles are like the spiral journey we walk in life, a reminder of the small cycle and the eagles eye view cycles. \n \nAdditionally, Venus is a planet that is observable with the human eye. Imagine how many thousands of years our wise and well ancestors have observed these cycles. It is evidenced in the writings of the Inanna Myth on tablet, the oldest writing on tablet found, by a woman named Enheduanna. \n\nThere is mythological similarity with Venus and Inanna, markers in the observable Venus cycle that correlate with the 7 gates passaged by Inanna. _ **this myth embodies the initiatory journey of woman. how we may choose descent in order to allow ourselves to die unto a more true essence.** _ A mythological underpinning illustrating our power to choose initiation, to cross a threshold. \n\n \n\nThe Descent of Inanna is one of the oldest 'myths' - suppressed by the myth (that then became religion) of Adam & Eve. Reducing women's erotic power to something sinful in the collective psyche of dominant western culture for thousands of years. \n\n \n\n**It is time for ancient yet new living myths, woven with our own unique listening to the current of eros** , as She ~ the deep feminine current ~ whispers words that weave new stories through the vessels of our bodies, supported by the wisdom of our well and wise ancestors.\n\n \n\nIn the venus-inanna cycle we are completing our ascent and preparing to go retrograde: to the underworld? The void? Questioning our relational values, our intimacy with life. In this deepening, we remember. Reclaiming feminine mysteries and erotic power. \n \n\n_My prayer is that Opening to Eros serves as a threshold for you. As a container for you to strip back, reclaim your erotic essence and stand in your power ~ however that may look and feel for you._ \n \n \n\n \n\n## Connect & Explore\n\nIf you desire a connection call to explore further \nplease email Taila at [**rewilding.eros@gmail.com**](mailto:rewilding.eros@gmail.com) \nor whatsapp/telegram message: +447703103726 \n \n \n\n**Refunds Policy & Payment Plans** \nPayment plans must be paid in full by 27th November 2026.\n\nPlease note, we do not typically arrange refunds or exchanges.\n\nIf all 13 spaces are full and there is a waitlist we are happy to support by offering your place to someone on the waitlist, this is not a guarantee of a refund or exchange.
