Sensuality
-
Sensuality springs forth from the fourth chakra - the Heart Chakra.
-
It is ruled by air and touch.
-
This energy represents unconditional love & requires intimacy.
-
Although sensuality is still very pleasurable, it is the feeling of being "seen," "heard," "felt" or "understood" by another which gives us that high we're looking for when chasing sex.
-
One can be sensual with oneself, or with an inanimate object, a child or a pet (Example: gently caressing your child's face or hair with love is "sensual")
-
The fulfillment from a sexual activity devoid of intimacy is fleeting, while the fulfillment from an act of intimacy & connection devoid of any sexuality can be long-lasting.
-
Sensuality is concerned with touch that is rooted in opening one's heart.
-
Sensuality can be a part of sexual connection, but is not sexual in and of itself.
vs.
Sexuality
-
Sexuality springs forth from the second chakra – the Sacral Chakra.
-
It is ruled by water & taste.
-
This energy represents Creation and Requires Physical Transformation.
-
Things like kissing, bathing and tasting your favorite fruit are based in desire & pleasure.
-
AlthoughI Sexuality has been used in marketing, advertising, pornography etc to alter human perception and morph our instinctual desires, there is nothing that comes close to experiencing amazing, connected sex.
-
Sex where everyone's desires are seen, heard and attempted to be fulfilled is an impossibility without intimacy skills.
-
Sexuality is based in our desire to connect with something external to fulfill our desires.
