Iris about 5 feminine erotic archetypes and Erodanza: "Erodanza is a dance empowerment journey that helps women to feel their own unique feminine nature. The 5 erotic archetypes help to meet all the different parts of yourself and to free yourself in order to live your life more fully as it is intended for you. Energies of the slut, the wild woman, the maiden and the mystic all serve a certain purpose and when they are either denied or repressed or sitting on the throne and ruling, you can get out of balance an feel unable to show your authentic light. When the queen is ruling your inner queendom, and the other archetypes are allowed to freely play, you feel empowered to face the world full of self-love, having your own back and the queen compassionately guiding you through. 

Women can easily feel jealous and intimidated by each other and when we break this universal pattern but instead love and support and empower each other we gain such a huge support that we women NEED in order to not feel alone but supported and lifted up by one another. Sisterhood makes us strong. And freeing ourselves from shame, shyness and insecurities will empower us to take the loving place in life we actually are intended for and we deserve. We can show ourselves, we can shine our light and we can show our beautiful wild delicious sensual and mystical feminine heart. In our own unique way. 

We can also talk about the meaning of eroticism as life-energy and not something scary or vulgar. we can also talk about examples of repressed archetypes or archetypes on the throne that all women can relate to. Like a maiden on the throne who is the sweet pleasing girl. Or the mystic on the throne who wants nothing nonspiritual in her life and rejects the earth. Or the wild woman on the throne who can be a total bitch in order not to feel vulnerable etc. A maiden in the shadow is for example afraid to surrender to life and to be vulnerable. A mystic in the shadow is a woman who is cynical towards a higher power. a wild woman in the shadow is afraid to set her boundaries and say no. etc".
