Awaken your Inner Temptress.

 An exercise I often do to get in touch with my Inner Temptress.

Create a create a seductive atmosphere.. dim the lights in your room, decorate your room and possibly your altar, decorate it with dried roses, shells, symbols and images associated with beauty and sensuality. Burn roses or lavender incense, possibly put the Empress, the Star, the Queen of Wands of the Tarot on your altar, meditate on it, attune yourself to it. Put on dark erotic music, or music that awakens your inner stripper goddess... Wear sexy clothes or lingerie, do your makeup and don't forget to do it with intentions; for example, red lips symbolize strength and sexuality, purple eye pencil stands for mysticism and psychic powers, the black eyeliner for opening your witch's eye and protecting you against the evil eye... and so highlighter, glitter and shine for shining like a Star.

Ground and center yourself first, do a short meditative breathing exercise (for example: 4 count in, hold 4 count and 4 out), connect with the energies and archetypal powers of the Dark Goddess, the energies of the Femme Fatale's, the Sirens and Succubussen.

Dance rhythmically and sensually, imagine (visualize, see, hear, taste and feel) what you want to embody, feel yourself shapeshifting into the form you want, it doesn't even have to be human-like: I often imagine that I am some kind of Dark Angel with a devilish beauty, monstrous-feminine or dangerous angelic beauty with a provocative allure. I personally visualise a smoky magenta (or another preferred color, look at correspondences) atmosphere or aura around me. I imagine my eyes glowing golden-green, my skin gleaming like pearls under the morning sun, or the ocean under full moonlight... I imagine my claws growing like a feline humanoid. Depending on the mood, I visualize wings growing out of my back or horns growing out of my head. I dance with my hands going down, pulling earthly power to me, then I pull heavenly powers from above and start dancing with these energies...

I say affirmations or sing incantations (infront of my mirror) : "I am a terrifying beauty, my aura is magnetic and sensual, I mesmerize and intimidate, bewitch and enchant whoever I want." 

After the ritual, I believe I am charged, blessed and empowered. I release the overabundant energies with gratitude and respect and then quietly come to myself and into a normal state (non-trance, non-magical, mundane.)

I feel blessed by the Venus, I celebrate her beauty. I see myself rising from a magical sea, like some kind of Daughter-Aphrodite; my show, my dance, beautifying myself are devotions and ways to honor the Goddess of Love and Beauty. I also honor the Moon Goddess and Witch Mother Diana Lucifera of the Black Madonna. Dea Illuminatrix.

I let her divine light shine on me, I allow myself to be charged and blessed by her power.

After the ritual, I believe I am charged, blessed and empowered. I release the abundant energies with gratitude and respect and then calmly come to myself and into a normal state (mundane).
