Embrace who you are to radiate divine feminine energy. Ultimately, being true to yourself is one of the best ways to magnify your feminine power. Recognize your emotions, be confident, and follow the advice that resonates within your heart.

- Stand firm in your values and beliefs, and write down what you prioritize in life—never compromise who you are to fit an idea of what you think men want.
- To be your most authentic self, follow your intuition and don't be afraid to make mistakes. Remember that you know yourself better than anyone else.

Be open to receiving help.

Accept help graciously to tap into your feminine side. While there’s nothing wrong with being self-sufficient, feminine energy focuses on receiving, while masculine energy is characterized by giving.

Be mysterious.

Maintain a little mystery to leave him wanting more. While feminine energy is naturally mysterious, you can make small adjustments to your behavior to enhance your innate allure. To be mysterious, listen more than you speak, and reveal minimal information about yourself. When you keep your personal life private, it ignites a man’s curiosity, making you appear more attractive and aligned.^{[2]

- Remember to choose your words wisely and speak with intent.
- To minimize the amount of information you share about yourself, respond vaguely. For example, if he asks you what you did the night before, you could say, “I had a fun time with friends” (instead of indulging him with every detail).

Stand up for yourself.

Set healthy boundaries to establish a powerful feminine aura. Instead of trying to please others, be sure to speak up if something isn’t okay with you.
