Menstrual Art

: Ritualize Your Blood :

: Connect with your womb :

: Harness Your Creative Power :

Channeling your menstrual blood into creative expression may feel unfamiliar at first, as you step into this sacred reclamation. If you feel called but hesitant to begin, consider exploring Jasmine Alicia Carter’s Free Menstrual Art Workshop as a beautiful portal into this transformative practice.

Creating art with your menstrual blood is a way for you to connect with the raw creative power of your womb. When we create with this life-giving substance, we honor our place as creators in the web of life. If you’re interested in awakening the Sacred Creatress in you…

click the link below to receive a free Sacred Creatress guided meditation to accompany your menstrual art ritual.

As you attune to your womb’s natural creative rhythm, you may choose to incorporate menstrual art creation into your inner winter womb connection ritual, or you may feel called to honor your inner spring woman by inviting her to steward your creative process.

Below you’ll find two sacred soundscapes, lovingly conjured to accompany you as you paint with your blood—ALCHEMICAL PLAYLISTS WOVEN TO AMPLIFY YOUR CREATIVE MAGIC + DEEPEN YOUR RITUAL COMMUNION WITH THE ESSENCE OF YOUR WOMB.

Designed for the wintering sacred creatress, may this sonic tapestry cradle you in the reverent stillness of your inner winter, echoing the mystery of the dark moon as you surrender to the potent void and create from the depths.

Curated for the spring sacred creatress, may this melodic journey uplift you in the playful stirrings of your inner spring, echoing the bright promise of the waxing crescent moon as you awaken new visions and create from a place of curiousity and renewal.

Beyond the Veil

A Closer Look at Curating the Red Temple

The soul-nourishing casual check-ins fell into a natural rhythm. Though we had each embarked on our womb-led wayfinding journeys individually, our wombs guided us to this sacred sisterhood—an unbreakable bond cemented by our blood. We had already circled together in ceremony many times, but it was our shared womb-bodied experiences that wove our connection into something timeless and reverent.

Our conversations would spiral around our inner seasons, reflecting on how they moved through us and shaped our lives; how the women cycling inside of us commanded an undeniable presence within our psyche. Then, one evening over dinner, as we shared in our usual menstruation check-in, Brenda’s eyes sparkled with a revelation: “I think we should do a podcast.” It was as though the next breadcrumb on our path had been revealed—an organic unfolding we felt destined to follow.

Since then, gathering in the Red Temple has felt like a seamless flow—sipping ceremonial cacao, chanting, and musing on the magic of our menstrual cycles. We are deeply honored to walk this path in devotion, and to weave this journey together with you, in the embrace of sacred sisterhood.
