Descripción

How did one of the most complex spiritual traditions of our time come to be reduced to a single aspect of human experience? In this episode, we’re joined by Mohini, founder of Evolve Beings and internationally recognized Tantra teacher, to explore one of the most misunderstood spiritual traditions of our time: Tantra. While often associated in the West with sexuality and intimacy, Tantra is rooted in far more expansive Eastern spiritual, philosophical, and devotional systems. Together, we unpack how this rich and multidimensional path became simplified—and at times distorted—as it moved across cultures. We begin by exploring Tantra in its traditional context, where it is practiced as a holistic path of awakening. Through meditation, ritual, mantra, breathwork, and energy cultivation, Tantra offers a framework for profound inner transformation and union with the divine. From there, we examine how Tantra has been interpreted in Western spaces, often reframed through a lens of self-development or sexuality, and what may have been lost in translation along the way. We also explore the deeper philosophical roots of Tantra, including its connections to Hindu and Buddhist lineages, and the role of discipline, devotion, and initiation in preserving the integrity of these teachings. A thread that is especially close to our hearts is the resonance between the sacred traditions of India and ancient Egypt. We reflect on how the temple arts of Egypt—through symbolism, ritual, and energetic understanding—mirror key principles found within Tantric teachings, pointing to a shared language of consciousness, embodiment, and inner alchemy that transcends geography and time. At its essence, this conversation invites a remembering: that Tantra is not simply a practice, but a pathway of refinement—an alchemical process of awakening to the truth of who we are. In its simplest form, this points to Ātman—the true Self, beyond body, mind, and identity. As a living expression of this work, Mohini will be leading her first retreat in Egypt this September—an immersive journey through sacred temples and energetic gateways, designed to support deep remembrance, activation, and inner transformation. Rooted in the ancient wisdom traditions that bridge India and Egypt, this experience offers a unique opportunity to explore these teachings within the very lands that echo their origins. We at Sisters of the Rose are honored to be supporting and co-creating this sacred journey. ✨ Connect with Mohini: @evolvebeings [https://www.instagram.com/evolvebeings/] ✨ Connect with Natalie: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thenatalierose__⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/thenatalierose__/] 🌹 Connect with Sisters of the Rose: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@sisters_oftherose⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/sisters_oftherose/]

episode #28 Redefining the Meaning of Love with Blake Zealear artwork

#28 Redefining the Meaning of Love with Blake Zealear

In this episode, we step into the unfolding journey of working with Blake as he writes his book — a process that has been as much an inner initiation as it has been a creative endeavour. Together, we explore the themes that are shaping his writing emotional honesty, and the deeper layers of identity that emerge when a man commits to telling the truth of his lived experience. This is not simply a conversation about writing a book — it is a witnessing of a man in process. Of ideas becoming embodied. Of resistance becoming clarity. Of story becoming transmission. We reflect on what it means to hold space for a book to be born rather than forced, and how creative work can become a path of transformation in itself — for both the writer and those walking alongside him. At its heart, this episode is about initiation through expression, and the quiet alchemy that happens when voice, truth, and devotion begin to align. ✨ Connect with Blake: @blakezealear⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/blakezealear/] 🌹 Find out more about our next Rose-Initiations in Egypt ⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.thenatalierose.com/www-thenatalierose-com-egypt-isis-rose-initiation] ✨ Connect with Natalie: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thenatalierose__⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/thenatalierose__/] 🌹 Connect with Sisters of the Rose: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@sisters_oftherose⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/sisters_oftherose/]

#27 Anchoring the Rose Sword with Jeffrey Shub

What if the parts of ourselves we fear the most are the very parts that hold the key to our wholeness? In this thought-provoking episode, we explore the often misunderstood realm of the Dark Masculine. Beyond gender, the Dark Masculine is an archetypal force that exists within all of us—a primal energy connected to power, boundaries, instinct, desire, protection, and our capacity to act decisively in the world. For many people, this energy has been suppressed, shamed, or projected onto others. We are taught to fear our anger, deny our intensity, and disconnect from our raw, instinctive nature. Yet what remains hidden does not disappear. Instead, it often emerges through resentment, manipulation, self-sabotage, victimhood, control, emotional reactivity, or unconscious power struggles. In this conversation, we dive into the importance of meeting the rage beneath the mask—not to become consumed by it, but to understand it, honour it, and transform it into conscious power. Together we explore: * The hidden cost of suppressing anger and instinct * Why shadow integration is essential for personal and collective healing * The role of healthy aggression in creating boundaries and change * How the Dark Masculine serves as a guardian when consciously integrated * Why these conversations are especially relevant in the current global climate This episode is an invitation to move beyond simplistic ideas of light and dark, good and bad. True maturity is not achieved by rejecting our shadows but by bringing awareness to them. When we integrate the Dark Masculine, we gain access to courage, clarity, discernment, protection, and authentic sovereignty. The world is not asking us to become less powerful. It is asking us to become conscious stewards of our power. Join us for a deep exploration into one of the most misunderstood aspects of the human psyche and discover why integrating the darkness may be one of the greatest acts of healing available to us today✨ Connect with Jeffrey: 🌹 Find out more about our next Rose-Initiations in Egypt ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.thenatalierose.com/www-thenatalierose-com-egypt-isis-rose-initiation] ✨ Connect with Natalie: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thenatalierose__⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/thenatalierose__/] 🌹 Connect with Sisters of the Rose: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@sisters_oftherose⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/sisters_oftherose/]

episode #26 Leadership in the New Era: Why Egypt holds the Key with Davie Gowans artwork

#26 Leadership in the New Era: Why Egypt holds the Key with Davie Gowans

Leadership is being redefined. The old models built on hierarchy, domination, and certainty are dissolving, and something more embodied, ethical, and initiatory is emerging in their place. In this episode, we’re joined by Davie Gowas, founder of Source Ibiza, for a powerful conversation on leadership in the New Era and why Egypt continues to serve as a living blueprint for what true leadership requires. Together, we explore leadership not as a role or title, but as a state of consciousness - one forged through inner authority, accountability, and relationship with the unseen. Egypt offers more than history; it offers a technology of leadership rooted in alignment between spirit, psyche, and service. From temples as initiatory schools to the symbolic training of kings and queens, we unpack how ancient Egyptian wisdom illuminates what it means to lead in times of collapse, transition, and renewal. This episode is for those who feel the call to lead differently - without bypassing shadow, without outsourcing power, and without abandoning the sacred. It’s a conversation about remembrance, responsibility, and the kind of leadership the future is quietly demanding now. ✨ Connect with Davie Gowans: @daviegowans [https://www.instagram.com/daviegowans/] daviegowans.com [https://www.daviegowans.com/path-to-freedom] Interview: What is the New Earth Frequency?
