The Holy Threshold of Embodiment

(A prayer, a remembering, a return)

By THE HONED CRONEPublished 3 months ago 3 min read
Wild Woman by Victoria Lynn

There is a threshold every sacred woman crosses when she stops performing her femininity and starts living it.

Not for applause.

Not for survival.

Not even for desire.

But because the truth of her body will no longer wait to be remembered.

This is the return.

This is embodiment.

Not theory.

Not theory dressed up as healing.

But breath. Blood. Bone.

A life where your soul and your body are finally speaking the same language — not through words, but through vibration, intuition, pulse.

When your body becomes oracle, and every cell remembers that it once belonged to a goddess.

🌹 You Are in Embodiment When…

Your body speaks… and you listen.

You know the rhythm of your yes.

You feel the edge of your no.

You don’t ask for someone else to validate your knowing.

Your intuition is not up for debate.

You understand that instinct is not primitive — it is divine intelligence in motion.

“My body is not a battleground.

She is the oracle.”

You speak from presence, not performance.

You don’t flirt to disarm.

You don’t shrink to soothe.

You let your truth fill the room like incense — slow, inevitable, unmistakable.

And you trust that what is real will stay.

You no longer perform peace to avoid loss.

You let falsehoods fall away with grace.

“I am not here to be palatable.

I am here to be free.”

You feel energy before logic.

You read the room with your skin.

You track the unsaid like moonlight across water.

And when your womb says this is not it — you walk.

No need to explain your magic.

No need to convince anyone that you see what you see.

“I don’t need proof.

I am the proof.”

Your sensuality rises from within.

It’s not in the mirror.

It’s not in his gaze.

It’s in the way your breath deepens when the wind kisses your neck.

It’s in the way your hips remember they were built to bloom, to pray, to summon heaven into form.

You are no longer an object of desire.

You are desire embodied.

“I am not sexy for you.

I am sacred for me.”

You let emotion move, not stagnate.

You cry without apology.

You rage without shame.

You laugh like thunder breaking open the sky.

You feel because it’s divine to feel — not because it’s tidy or nice.

You understand that grief is a portal and pleasure is prayer, both carrying you closer to truth.

“I am not too much.

I am tidal.”

You magnetize — not chase.

You don’t beg to be chosen.

You choose.

You are the calm eye of the storm.

You know that what is true finds its way to your fire.

Everything else dissolves in your silence.

“I do not chase.

I call in what I’ve already made room for.”

You know your softness is your strength.

Your rest is revolutionary.

Your gentleness is power refined through grace.

You are not “submissive.” You are surrendered — to what is holy, real, and rising.

“My softness is not weakness.

It is sacred force, untamed.”

You are not separate from the Earth.

You bleed with meaning.

You walk barefoot through thresholds.

You pray with your hips and breathe with the trees.

You mother not just children, but visions, rituals, and whole worlds.

You remember that to create is to worship.

“I am not visiting this body.

I am of this body.

I am the spell, the altar, the flame.”

This is not a checklist.

It is a homecoming.

To the temple of you.

To the voice that was never gone — only silenced.

To the woman you were before the world told you who to be.

You are not too late.

You are not too bruised.

You are not too hardened.

You are arriving.

Welcome home, priestess.

Welcome home to your holy skin.
