Hi, I'm Crimson, and I'm an Esoerotic, self-expression healing witch.

I am also the founder of Minx + Muse and creatrix of Esoeroticism™

The Fool’s Journey Begins

I had my witchy awakening around the same time I started taking sensual dance classes in 2013. I was in my early 30s and I had recently made a solo move across the country from NYC to LA seeking a new, inspired life. Not long after, I encountered a Tower moment when I went through a break up, left my full time job, and started craving deeper meaning and purpose. And damn, did I ever find it!

Before that I was a practicing Catholic into my early 20s and the prototype of "that girl" who was so insecure in her femininity that she hid as "one of the boys". Barf. Truth was, I didn't care for the teachings of the Bible but was drawn to the sacred devotion of it all, along with the gothic architecture, candles, and incense (so witchy!) And I was so self loathing and uncomfortable in my body and sexuality that I was jealous of other women and found it easier to just disassociate and hang with the dudes. Again, barf.

All of that changed when I started combining my interest in magick and the occult with my newfound feeling of empowered sensual expression.

The adventures of a neophyte

Y'all, I went deep into a metaphysical dive. I took tarot classes, did botanica cleansings, went to meditation and sound healing classes, worked with a lucid dreaming mentor, went to occult workshops, worked with shamans and healers, had astrology and I Ching readings, and so many other unconventional esoteric things that I can't even remember.

And at the same time I was having a sexual awakening—but for my own damn pleasure—and it had nothing to do with the bedroom! I was taking as many feminine embodiment classes as I could, ranging from striptease and floorwork to pole and chair dance. For the first time in my life, sexuality was something I was expressing for myself, feeling unapologetic in my body, and not worrying about how I looked or was serving others. It was liberating, and I was LIT TF UP!

The initiation of the creatrix

Fast forward, universe guided me to Austin, TX in 2016, and I poured my heart (and savings) into opening Minx + Muse in October of 2017.

I am (and forever will be) a perpetual student of this work. At the time of writing this in 2024, I feel so much love for that older version of me, but I cannot relate to that previous life where I was so controlled by external systems, standards, and expectations. The empowered freedom I now feel—the KNOWING that I am the ultimate creatrix of my life—is something I desire for all of our students (and the whole damn world!)

Which is why the work we do at Minx + Muse through Esoerotic dance and witchcraft is always expanding and evolving: so we can best serve and facilitate transformation as we expand and evolve ourselves!

Thank you for taking the time to read my story, and I am so honored and enchanted to be on this journey with you!
