This morning I awoke from a dream, the kind I haven’t had in a while and a very specific kind I have never had. Ever. I dreamt all of my hair was gone, and I was bald. My hair has been a distinguishing feature of mine since I was a child. Hair stylists naturally gravitate […]

OpEd: Summer Solstice – 18 Years a Witch
Today is June 21, 2014, and it marks 18 years since I self-initiated as a witch. The ritual took place in my backyard with a number of fellow witch-friends in attendance, along with too many mosquitoes and June Bugs to count. I had been on this road to witchdom for a couple of years, having […]
TOD: Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Closing Prayer
I am a big fan of Pattabhi Jois’ Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga practice. I love the physicality of it — having danced in ballet and the theatre for almost 20 years (not counting ethnic and belly dancing), my body really responds to the physical demands of Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga. I recently got back into it…. and […]
TOD: A Tantra Approach & a New Mantra of “Help Others”
On Twitter tonight, I had put out a general question to see what people wanted to talk about. As many are on the last leg of the holidays and the New Year, most are taking the time to focus on how to make 2014 better than last year, and more importantly, how to be better […]
RADIO: Trish’s Womanifesto – A Treatise on Being an ArousedWoman
Ever wondered what I mean when I say “ArousedWoman?” Of course, you don’t! YOU actually read my blog! YOU actually communicate with me on Twitter or Facebook. Sadly, many people judge my book by its Jessica Rabbit cover and move on…. sniff…. (that was a joke, people… seriously!) Well, not any more! I posted the […]
I’m Free! I’m Finally DIVORCED!!! I’m FREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
After 15+ years of indentured servitude in the socio-economic contractual farce our culture calls “marriage,” I am very happy to proclaim the words I’ve wanted to yell since I got married… I AM DIVORCED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! I got the text message from my lawyer a little while ago that the judge signed off […]
OpEd: The Activist’s Guide to Putting Aside Our Differences to Fight for Our Differences
A while back, a friend made the comment that she had seen my Facebook status, and it made her think about that particular issue I’d brought up, saying, “You have so many causes, I can’t keep up.” Wrong. I have ONE cause — Human Rights. All other rights issues stem from this central trunk of […]
OpEd: Thank YOU, My Wonderful Friends!
© 2013 by Trish Causey. All Rights Reserved. “First I was afraid, I was petrified”…. Gloria Gaynor sings in my ear as I think over the past few days since I wrote the first post of this blog, “A Life Lived in Fear Is a Life Half-Lived.” I knew I’d lose some followers and “friends,” […]
AskTrish: Man Inquires About “the Woman Behind the Blog” & What I Do in My Spare Time
Dear Trish, That was random I know, but you share so much about your life and experiences that I wondered how you were doing in the areas that you don’t speak about. You have every right to say nothing. I just enjoy getting a better understanding of the woman behind the blog. What do you […]
Dream: Astral Travel – Going to the Other Side & Seeing the Source Energy
Copyright 2013 by Trish Causey. All Rights Reserved. Some schools of thought say all dreams are a form of astral projection. If so, then I’m astral traveling 3 to 5 times every night. But what I consider astral projection — traveling across time/space to the Other Side — has only occurred once — that I […]
Tantra: Out With the Old, In With the Older
Copyright 2013 by Trish Causey. All Rights Reserved. Those of you who have followed my orgasm journal have read about my path to becoming a multi-orgasmic and spontaneously orgasmic woman. I’ve experienced all sorts of -gasms from multiple orgasms, heart-gasms, leg-gasms, nipple-gasms, urination-gasms, labia-gasms — you name it, my body has -gasmed there. I embarked […]
AskTrish: Woman Married 15 Years Can Only Orgasm to Porn
Dear Trish, I’ve been married for almost 15 years. Before I got married, I used to have orgasms without a problem during intercourse, and I was very active and sexual woman. Now, AFTER 15 years, we have sex like every three or four months and worse, without orgasms… well, once a year if I’m really […]
NEWS: ArousedWoman Focuses on “Awakening Sexuality in Mind, Body, & Spirit”
If you read my post from the other day, you know ArousedWoman is now 1 year old — and what a year it has been! I did not set out to create what ArousedWoman has become — I just followed my heart to continue my activism for myself personally and “to stir to action” and […]
OpEd: Hardcore Erotica, Animalistic Sex, and Hair Pulling
A male member of the AW Forum posted a discussion in the Music to Set the Mood area, saying: “Just thought I would add a category that I like to call ‘Hard Erotica.’ It’s a little more gritty and animalistic… Sometimes a good fuck requires a little hair pulling….” Seriously? We’re back to the “so […]
DailyOJ 01-26-13, Part 2: The Fear of Intimacy
* Read Part 1 * Today was a great day. So I was a bit surprised by the slight emotional breakdown I just experienced. It wasn’t caused by my intactivism on Twitter (explaining the horrors of both male circumcision and female genital cutting), or the raucous festivities happening just outside my apartment from the day […]
