This blog is normally one of professional services writings, however, it is also a blog that I like to write to and add information on my work, my individual preferences and any news that could be of help or value to you!
After returning from the most amazing Conference for Sacred Sexual Healers I've ever been to, I've decided to tell you a couple things.
First, is that sometimes during my own healing of my own traumas, I may focus the session more on healing and less on eroticism and sexuality, however, very sensual in nature and still can be very sexual. I fluctuate my sessions depending on the level of energy that is moving through me. In the past, if you have been coming to me for 3 years now, you might notice how sometimes in sessions with me, I'll be wildy erotic, and other times I'll be more feminine and gentle and more motherly in my approach. Both are extremely important in these tantric arts, however, we all go through different phases of our life. However, since returning from the Sacred Sexual Healers conference and receiving my own healing session, I went through my own darkness. I ordered flower essences to help with this transformation since...
I love my work so much and would do everything I can to continue to be present for others during this time. As a Sacred Sexual Healer, and being a Reiki Master for over 11 years now, (and other Spiritual Coach labels you might or might not be familiar with) I am very in touch with my own energy.
My meditation practice has been deeper, my ability to relax has been deeper, I am more in touch with my heart center, I am more connected to my source, and in turn will be a more powerful healer for those who come to see me.
As you can see, before I left to Sedona and received this healing, I had started an online Sex Toy Business. I will be continuing to do this, and this is just an example of how I was in a strong place of feeling erotic before going out there.
However, the more clear I am of my past, the more amazing my sessions can be. I always speak the truth of my boundaries as they come up, and I accept anyone else's boundaries as valid and important as well. This is an opportunity to be real with each other and to share each other's truth. If you know me, then perhaps you will appreciate this honesty and the truth that this is being worked on and will allow me to be empowered in my sexuality and more alive in my whole self than ever before!
I also learned some new powerful ways of accessing a man's ability to bring up his kundalini/sexual energy from his sex center so he does not ejaculate so quickly and can hold his erection longer, and feel more alive an in his body. I am excited to practice this with my old clients and new.
As a Dakini, moving into my power even more, I want to speak words, that remind me of the phrase "coming out". Here is my statement below:
Description of a Dakini: A Dakini is a Healer who works in the Sexual Healing Arts. A Dakini is a female version of a Daka; a male Sacred Sexual Healer. A Dakini is trained in the arts of Sexual Healing and performs her services with highest integrity of the receiver coming to the Sexual Practitioner. A Dakini is not only a Dakini in her work, but this is her life. She is a practitioner of tantra and the ancient arts of sexuality, yoga and the breath. A Dakini can combine her gifts as a Sexual Healer with her other gifts of healing, such as Shamanism, intuition, and creates a space of safety, sensuality and love. As a Dakini, she can also use her gifts of ritual to perform her healing sessions and fill the space with the divine archetypes, angelic realm, ascended masters, and any other higher being she chooses to call on. As a Dakini and a pagan Goddess, I like to draw in my powers of healing, and my powers of intention to create a session filled with powerful manifestation of what the receiver desires to bring into his or her life. The word Dakini is very ancient, and there is very little information on it from India or Egypt.
I have been a Dakini for 3 ½ years and a pagan for 13 years. When I was first becoming a Dakini, I chanted the mantra for Ma’at and asked for her healing powers to support me. She was with me every step of the way. As I took on the name Astarte (and added a “t” for my own numerological reasons), Astarte, is now with me always.
I will be keeping a journal of my sessions with clients as I feel inspired. This will be completely anonymous but also filled with the journey to love in each session I create. My desire is to continue this journal so that I may share my own journey of healing as I help others and as I continue to develop my skills in helping them!
Thank you all for your trust in me, your confidence and your bravery in moving into your own sexual power!
I love meeting new people and especially new clients that could potentially be people I help that grows to something beautiful!
All my clients I treat with kindness and love. We get together and sit in my healing room and get acquainted. We create a spiritual connection and create a space of comfort with each other before getting started with anything else.
Then the session is directed by what your focus is on, your interests and your needs; whether they be spiritual, emotional, physical or sexual. We only do what feels right in the moment and what we both agree on. I always ask before we move in any direction. I do my best to give off the energy of love, compassion, understanding and patience throughout the entire session. I also always request for you to be as completely honest with me as possible (i.e. when you are uncomfortable, do not like something, want to do something different, or want me to change how I am doing something, such as touching with massage or counseling when you do not want to discuss __).
I offer a sliding scale. I offer this so that those who cannot afford the higher rate can choose to give what they can, and those who are able to afford more have this choice as well.
Tips
I do not expect tips, but if you desire you may give extra if you can. I also love flowers, candles, organic fruit or vegetables, incense, saris or sarongs, stones and music. Clients
I prefer to work with clients who have some experience on a Spiritual path. If you do not have any experience, please be prepa
red to learn how to get started. I may suggest books, exercises to practice, videos to watch or other suggestions specific to your needs and where you are in your life.
If you are someone new to the Spiritual path, I may suggest we do some Energy Healing before diving into the intense tantra sessions I offer. If I suggest an Energy Healing Session first, this is because it will prepare you that much more for receiving a Tantra Session with me. It is extremely important that your energy is clear in order to receive tantra work. If you are going through an extremely hard period in your life, or under loads of stress, we may have to do the healing work before tantra, and this is to prepare for for the next level of healing; Tantra Therapy. You cannot go to college until you've first gone through Elementary School. We may also be able to incorporate an Energy Healing Session within the time you come to see me, so you can receive both Energy Healing and Tantra work in one. To see more on my Healing Sessions, go to http://intuitivesessions.blogspot.com
I am working with regular clients and new clients. Regular clients are those who come on a regular basis or those I have seen before and those I have interviewed, talked with or seen their profile.

I would be happy to give you a short description of how the session would go, but other than the initial interview/counseling process it is hard to say what will happen. I offer many tools and skills and each session is unique in its' own. I would find out your individual interests, desires, and needs as a couple and then we would talk about what I could offer when we meet regarding those desires, interests, and needs. Your answer will guide me in this process and our initial connection will also lead us to where the session will take. There is a definite possibility that I could be there with you two for a deeper session of intimacy. I may not be interactive the whole time, but I will be there the whole time to support you. (Your session will be taken place in doors at my location, yours, or another location we agree on).
Fees for Couples: $225 an hour 2 hour Couples Session $425 (negotiable)
Double Goddess Sessions
2 hour - $600 to $750
(Fees are based on two persons).
To request a Double Goddess Session, we need ample time in advance so I can arrange my schedule with other Dakini's. I will now be working with Dr. Susan Kaye doing Double Goddess Sessions for women only!

Radiating everywhere I surrender to the violet plane I surrender to this body I surrender to this mind I breathe and let life in I breathe and let fate take me I am wholeness in peace No one can take me back but my own my ego, my temptations, my resistance I am always in control I let go and allow as I am continuously filled with love. Tantra is not just about a sexual experience. In fact, most people in the US, and especially the East coast have the mis-belief that tantra is completely about sex. The truth is sex is only 10% a part of tantra and the other 90% is about practices, meditation, healing, kundalini awakenings, movement of the breath and the body (and I'm not talking about sexual movement here), being authentic and in your truth (speaking your heart, communicating what you really want to say, doing what you really want to do at your core), yoga practices, and more.
I am here as a guide and I have chosen to take on the path as a Healer, and I have also chosen to go so deep in being a Healer as taking on the role of a Tantra Healer; which has its risks and its benefits. However, a lot of my experience has been with men who desire to "release", or have a sexual encounter. My job is in telling you that this is not what tantra is about. My soul is speaking to me and is now telling me that I need to teach all of you intensely interesting men and richly sexual men that you need to get on a spiritual path that combines the essence of tantra; combining deep breathing and energy movement practices to raise the energy up the spine which has the ultimate goal of opening your entire energy being; your auric field, your essence, your radiance and presence. This is not the sexual energy you feel when you have an orgasm. This is the blissful feeling you get when you are alone; taking a bath and fully relaxed with no pressures and you feel filled with light and love. This blissful feeling is not the orgasmic feeling you get when with your partner, but rather the feeling you have when you are truly at peace on every level.
The goal of tantra is to feel so clear inside your heart and spirit that you get to a place where things bother you less and you feel better about life and about your self. Once you've achieved this, or in conjunction with, then the next goal is to work through any blocks in your communication or blocks in the energy between you and your beloved, OR remove the "blocks", that is taking away that empty space that is leaving you alone with no partner at all and drawing in the powers of your being to create and manifest the perfect partner for you. My goal is to work with you as a team player, a coach, a Healer and a friend. I hope to help sooth your stresses, mend your questioning mind, calm your nerves, resolve conflicts with your relationship, and help you manifest a partner that is perfectly aligned for exactly who you are.
I am a new mother and there may be times when I cannot get back to you right away (and my regular clients know this), but I will always get back to you.
May you always be Blessed and Loved!

Remembering Presence
During the moments of quiet within each breath and the whispers of every second, remaining still becomes presence, and holding space is all that is. As I sit and hold space for my clients, I remember how tranquil and beautiful it feels to be still and present. And in time in sessions this beauty and presence feels like it could last for eternity. Being present is a meditation and a joy to achieve, and although it sounds simple to attain, for many it can be very difficult. And so this is where tantra practice comes in to achieve this balance and doing this with another allows the attainment that much easier. Offering the sessions to another allows the mirror to be reflected; the love you put out comes back to you, the peace you put out comes back to you, and the presence you put out comes back you. Anything you give is received and offered back as love. And so in being still, we create this miracle together.
It has been a couple months since I’ve offered sessions from after the birth of my beautiful baby.As I return to my practice and the sacred art of healing, by giving of service through sessions, I return to what I love and remember the beauty of being still. As I give to others, I also receive and in teaching meditation and love to others, I also reach the still place of meditation and love in my own self. This gift of giving can be a miracle; not only the miracle of healing to others, but also the miracle of healing oneself.
I only know the depth and immensity of what healing can do for others by how deep it has impacted my own life.My own testimony to how much I have transformed from all healing paths that I have been trained, received healing, and have had experience in some way is the only way that I know how intensely powerful they all are. However, you must be truly willing to delve deep inside in order to come out of your own shell like the butterfly blossoms from its cocoon.
As we become still in moments that feel challenging to slow down our body, and slow down our mind, this is when we can truly transform and open our hearts to a more serene place of love. And in being present to others we are also present to ourselves. And, in Tantra, this is healing in a universal way; helping the self and helping the other as the circle of energy makes its way around; from you into them, from them into you and continues this cycle again and again until you choose to end the practice. The energy cycles and circulates from one to another and presence remains while love grows stronger and healing blossoms from within. There is nothing more beautiful and miraculous than this. Slowing down is the biggest key to healing; whether it is tantric healing or any other form; practicing presence is all you need.
Without the energy of love, intimacy cannot happen. Allowing the sessions to move into a space of trust, respect, kindness, and presence allows the love to flow; and in essence the intimacy can be built on from here. Without love, intimacy cannot exist. Without love, intimacy is false, and based on control or fear. The only way to move energy and connect with another human being and oneself is through kindness and the presence of love.
Many people try to rush intimacy or expect it to happen without moving their own energy, or the energy of their beloved. Intimacy cannot happen on its’ own. It must be built upon, the energy must be cleared and connected, and calm kindness must be present with acceptance, stillness, and an open heart.
Many people have desires for gratification. They want pleasure and to be stimulated. However, gratification, pleasure and stimulation cannot happen just by itself.Gratification, pleasure and stimulation cannot happen without making an effort to work on the energy it takes to create the love that’s underneath the desire and pleasure. There is no quick fix. There is no instant satisfaction. Love cannot happen without putting your heart into it.
All sessions are based on love and true presence. If you want a quick fix, or are just looking for sex, and cannot see the value of presence, then I am not the right practitioner for you.
I am Asttarte. You may experience feelings and emotions that are uncomfortable for you. When you are in my presence there may come an experience where you feel emotions that make you feel uncomfortable and you are not familiar with, or you do not know how to handle. As you spend time with me, I become your mirror. I may mirror different issues within you that come to the surface because they need to be released and healed. I am not here to judge you or criticize you. I will accept your feelings unconditionally. If I notice any anger, frustration, irritation, control, resistance, or sadness then I may suggest for you to do some deeper breathing to help you move into these areas. I may also suggest for you to do some emotional clearing with me. If you are not able to feel comfortable in following my guidance, and do not allow yourself to go into these feelings, then you may not experience the session to its full capacity, or walk out confused and possibly dissatisfied.
I am an empath and sometimes feel feelings you are experiencing, as this is one of my many ways to help you. I use this gift as my guidance to support you in taking your journey to the next level.
My biggest wish for you is that you allow yourself to be vulnerable with me, so that I can help you in the best way possible. My sessions are based on love, and this love may be all you need to experience true bliss within. I am a guide and a support, and I will always do my best to support you and help you in any way I can.
Healing with the Chakras Tantric & Kundalini Awakening
Chanting the names of these chakras (see pictures below) allows the energy to rise and move to the crown (at the top of your head). As this energy rises, after breathing this energy up for several minutes or longer, one can experience a feeling of bliss, energy awakening around your body, tingles and sensations of love and joy within the body, and a feeling of deep relaxation and peace! Chanting these names sitting in front of your partner, or beloved also allows the two people to experience bliss. When sitting in the Tantric yab yum position (see picture in Couples section above), a couple can experience these sensations together, and can also feel the love of their hearts connecting at a level possibly never experienced before. In tantric history and following a tantric path, when making love in this yab yum position, love making will never be the same! (The breathing, chanting and tantric movements in this position need to be practiced, and without practicing the breathing, chanting and movements in this position, the experience cannot be felt. Couples need to be disciplined in this practice and allow each other to become fully vulnerable in their presence with each other, as this allows them to connect to the divine, and in essence, their true hearts love!)
The breathing exercises, chanting and movements can be taught in my private Tantra sessions, and allow for a very beautiful experience!

Testimonials:
"I was engulfed...by your sensuality.
You treated me as though I was all that mattered to you and time slowed to a near halt to witness. Dealing with my apprehension and fears, you have made me face and overcome many of them. I dare not graduate to conquering all of them; because, I want you around for a long time.
Please continue to sharpen your sensitivity, fulfill your focus and sensationalize your sexuality and the sky will open to unlimited opportunities and vivid dreams. I only ask one thing of you during your rise: Take me with you."

Asttarté
As you know I've been doing chakra meditation on my own for several months now. The idea was to harness the Kundalini energy to help me physically and mentally. I've been visualizing the chakras by color and location, and thinking about relaxing and releasing the energy from each while I chant the appropriate mantra. It took a few sessions, but I was surprised to feel anything at all, but I did. I started to feel a faint buzzing warmth in the first three chakras.
It took me about 2 months before I could feel anything at all beyond that.
I finally felt something in my heart, and soon after that in my brow (Unfortunately as a headache!). But I was getting in touch to a small degree with all my chakras.
Your session blew me away. By sharing your energy with me while I did a similar chakra meditation, it was a 100-fold more powerful. You were somehow able to help me release /and give to me/ energy in such a way it was overwhelming. I could feel stress, pain and tension flowing from me. I could feel a strong charge of energy. A few times it was almost too much it was such a heady experience. It was blissfully intoxicating. I also don't think I've ever felt that close to someone. It was such a close, intimate experience. For the first time I think I felt really "in tune" with another human being. That in itself was a pretty wonderful experience.
The down side of this is that I am now back to my own chakra meditation - by myself. It's a pale and poor substitute to what we shared. I feel like a junkie who got really high but now can't get another fix. My loneliness is intensified, after sharing that oneness, and then going back to being by myself.
Still - this gave me a small glimpse of how things could be, and how powerful this work is. It is something to look forward to, to continue to learn about, and hopefully get more adept at so I can harness these energies better own my own.
In summary, all I can say is "WOW, Let's do it again!"
Love and thankfulness,
Regular client, 4/10/06

...real treasure and treat!
Asttarté Sharananda Deva, Dakini :
Greetings! I trust that all is well with you.
Although I did leave a voicemail, I wanted to send this e-mail to you.
First, let me thank you for "fitting" me in today. I know that it was not scheduled until literally the last minute at a late hour. I felt that I should at least attempt to see you before this demanding day and weekend. I was oh so right. I really was out of balance and out of sync with myself for a couple of weeks now. I knew of no one to help me. My prior experiences weren't worth repeating and my possibilities were very slim. I could find a therapeutic massage that left something out and a sensual that was empty and frustrating. When you met me at the door I was relieved and felt that I was going to be correct about trusting you.
Second, let me thank you for a wonderful session. You advised me to "melt" and I melted before you advised me. Great touch, reading, rhythm and sensual strokes. I was very relaxed especially considering that the cats did not distract me. I felt peaceful and safe in my very vulnerable state. Your attention to my needs made me feel that no one else and nothing else mattered to you during the time we were together. I also appreciate your level of respect to me in not taking me too far too soon. I really admired that.
Third, since the session, I have traveled from Chester, West Chester and back to DelawareCounty. Mostly in the rain and in moderate to high volume traffic. Normally, I would be a nervous wreck. Because of you, not once did I get close to being "bent out of shape". I felt appreciated, balanced, confident, relaxed and (a hint) of sensual. All thanks to you and your work.
Fourth, if you allow, I would like to make another appointment with you. I will be away much of this week. If you would, please advise me of what you feel, based on this appointment today, of what I would be ready for? I mentioned tantric and you also confirmed that as a stage. Just wanted to get a feel of what you were feeling.
Fifth, I am very grateful to have met you. I have longed for an experience that awakens what was sleep or even untouched. I feel that you could remedy my need for chemistry, communication, expression, sensuality and sexuality in dosages that would be captivating and mutual without guilt, maintenance or obligation. I really appreciate your finding that and even more in me and being trustworthy to not mistreat it. I find that I would give if you receive my transparency, trust and vulnerability.
Finally, I apologize for the length. Some things can't be said in short sentences, small paragraphs and snappy dissertations.
Sweet dreams and success for the days ahead.

Dear Asttarte,
I am still drinking in the generosity of spirit & soul you shared with me in our session. The way you touch, speak, breath & move is imbued with such a level of mastery that my sense of gratitude grew from your first words. Even though you used different modalities, you have woven them into a beautiful tapestry which is your work, your presence. Thank you again for being a teacher, a healer & most importantly being true to yourself.

WHAT INTIMACY THERAPY SESSIONS LOOK LIKE Intimacy Therapy, Healing and Transformation
Sessions consist of consciousness. This is the start and the base of everything. Consciousness is tantra. Tantra is love. Love is connecting and uniting in bliss, and truth. Presence is being aware of everything in the moment we are together. In every moment we are together, the mind is shut off, the heart is open and becomes in tune with checking out our desires from within to see if they match.
At the start of each session, we will sit down together in my counseling room and I will ask you what your intentions are. I will also ask you what your intentions are for your life. And, in the session I will focus my energies to support you in the moment we are together, but also the broader picture of your life in general.
If you feel ungrounded when we begin, or when you arrive, from your drive to get to me, or from something else, I will guide you through a meditation to help you become calm and feel more at peace. I use my intuition with everything I do, and I am guided strongly in the most perfect way I know.
Sessions can include all or a any form of healing work I am specialized in. See this blog for details on the types of healing tools I use. As you grow to know me, in future sessions, I may include other tools to support you when needed, however, I only give what you are ready to receive, open to receive, and need.
I may give you a massage with healing, Healing Massage; sensuous energy, Breathwork, counseling, energy work, stretching, acupressure and meditation. Many masages move into Sacred Massage. A Sacred Massage can include any tools used in a Healing Massage, plus the addition of more sensual touch, and a deeper love connection. We may also do a session of Intimacy Therapy. All of my work is Intimacy Therapy, and everything is based on love and healing. Please be prepared to face yourself and heal at your core if you choose to take this on. I will offer support and unconditional love at all times.
I do my best to match your desires, and often they are fulfilled. If they are not, I ask for you to tell me during the session so that we can shift gears to match you to what you need. My desire is for your intentions to be as clear as possible before we get started. Everything done and performed is up to spirit!

Integrated Energy Therapy Integrated Energy Therapy is a form of healing that uses acupressure and a hand gesture technique to cleanse the physical body and aura of emotional blocks from the present or past. IET cleanses the body internally and externally, using a method to pull the energies out from the body clearing the aura, or energy field with a simple movement of the hand in connection with the acupressure point the practitioner holds. It helps to relax and rejuvenate the individual and gives a feeling of complete lightness after a session. IET is a frequency of energy connected with Angel Ariel or any being the practitioner feels draw to the most, but directly links their heart chakra to the heart chakra of the divine.
Igili Energy Therapy is a light gentle touch energy therapy where one feels relaxed and at peace within. Igili Energy Therapy was incorporated into formal teachings by founder Victoria Pendragon who named the technique in honor of a group of 7 angels from the Pleiades. Igili healing occurs when the practitioner’s energy goes into the body and stays there so that the person can learn why the imbalanced energies started in the first place.In an Igili Healing session, energies are integrated and dissolved within the body, rather than released like other healing systems. Healing energy from Igili supports an individual in a space of loving compassion so that harmful imbalanced energies dissolve over time.
WellSea Approach Acupressure is a method of light gentle acupressure using gentle finger pressure, hand placements and visualization to help remove stuck energy from the body.Light finger pressure releases pain and usually causes less discomfort during treatment.WellSea becomes more powerful when practitioner and client use visualization and the breath together to remove blockages and stuck energy. WellSea can be used in conjunction with other treatment modes such as Mind & Body Acupressure, Shiatsu, Breathwork, Toning, and other forms of Wellness or Visualization. WellSea Approach empowers people to heal themselves as they learn how powerful the connection between their mind and body truly is.
Frequency Balancing is a treatment modality that focuses on balancing the four main components of the human energy system. (Four of the main components of the human energy system are: Acupuncture/meridian lines, Chi – the energy that runs through the meridian lines, your aura, and the chakras – the energy center that receive and send chi throughout your body).Frequency Balancing is for people who want to come back to balance.During a FB session, I will intuitively scan your body for the blocks, and then use methods of clearing and remove the excess energies that are no longer needed. Frequency Balancing is a method of energy healing where I use my hand as a laser to clear away any stuck energy, as a light coming out of a wand, or an invisible ball of light to create a vortex for cleansing. FB helps people to reduce stress, promote healing, balance emotions, clear a person’s energy meridians and balance the main energy centers of the body (the front and back major chakras).
Reiki is a form of laying on of handshealing system. There is nothing that can compare to this dynamic form of energyhealing. It is the most natural and effective system available, and the first step to all the rest. Reiki changes lives. There is no doubt about this. And they are always changed for the better.
Reiki was invented in the Tibetan Monasteries as a technique of self-healing on the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual levels.
Reiki has developed over the years into a system for sharing these self-healing energies.
Reiki is a bio-energy process, which pulls energy into the practitioner’s body and then moves this energy into oneself or another person.
From the day of receiving a Reiki initiation the practitioner is able to transferthe energyautomatically when hands are placed on oneself or another individual.
Reiki energy is safe and universal. The practitioner only needs to place their hands lightly on the receiver or even just above them in order to perform the Reiki.
Reiki will go through anything, so the person being healed can stay dressed. This will end in a warm and very relaxing sensation. Reiki can decrease, ease, and even heal pain discomfort or dis-ease of any kind. Whatever the problem is, Reiki can have an affect in a positive way.
