Gorgeous Yoni Cushions |
Yoni is Sanskrit for 'Sacred Temple'. It not only translates as 'vulva and vagina' but also 'place of birth, source, origin, spring, fountain, place of rest, repository, receptacle, seat, abode, home, lair, nest, stable'

The Gorgeous Yoni Cushion was born on June 1st 2005 at a tribal Menarche Ceremony in Dorset! It was passed around a circle of 200 or so women who held the cushion and spoke 3 words to describe their bleeding and their yoni. Young girls caressed its softness and women held its warmth to their wombs as it went around the circle.
The Yoni Cushion connects us to the ancient power of the Goddess Baubo: There is a powerful saying: 'Dice entre las piernas', or 'She speaks from between her legs.'' These little 'between the legs' stories are found all over the world. Baubo, the name of the ancient goddess from Greece, has older names such as Iambe, and it appears the Greeks borrowed her from far older cultures. There have been archetypal wild Goddesses of sacred sexuality and life/death/life fertility since the beginning of memory. (passage by Clarissa Pinkola Estes) In Greek mythology, Baubo was a female clown who managed to draw laughter from the Goddess Demeter when she was hiding away and withholding the gift of fertility from the world.
We all came from the Gorgeous Yoni and we all have a story to share.
The Gorgeous Yoni Cushion is explicitly detailed and hand-made using silks, cottons, satins and velvets, and stuffed with raw sheep's wool. All are adorned with beading and gems. Each one is infused with fragrant flowers and herbs and signed and dated by the artist.

If you would like to have your yoni cushion prices range from £40-100+. The Yoni Cushions shown here are a guide. You can order one similar or request particular colours, materials, special adornments and a goddess name.
