Here is a piece of writing that I thoroughly enjoyed. I think people mistakenly presume that transforming sexuality to something sacred and loving, means it loses it’s fire. Not so. You’d do well to read the entire article in order to get the full context, but if you only have time for a bite-sized portion – taste this!

In case it hasn’t been clear by now, intentional sexuality is hot. It’s fun, it’s erotic, it’s a remarkable form of play. It’s okay that it’s hot. It’s great that it’s hot; it’s Divine that it’s hot. For pagans and polytheists, this play is holy and invoking the energies of nature is holy. But even for monotheists and monists, if the manifest universe is an expression of the Divine, playing with Itself, coming to know Itself, loving Itself, then the more we immerse ourselves in that cosmic drama, the more we ourselves are expressing God. Becoming fully, electrically alive; growing exquisitely sensitive to eros – this is being and becoming aware of God Itself.

I’d like to point out that no matter what your spiritual position might be, to embrace your physicality and your humanness is healthy. It does not mean you have to take on paganism or any form of belief that goes contrary to what feels right to you. It doesn’t even require you to be spiritual in any of the typical forms that we know. Your unique relationship with who you really are, is all that matters. What matters is whether you are able to step out of conventional thinking and to give up the comfort zone, in order to gain “heaven” – whatever  heaven might mean for you.
