This study explores the Lacanian concept of mystical feminine jouissance, a bodily, ineffable pleasure-pain, and spiritual rapture that transcends the symbolic order. The nature of women's embodied feminine energy and the essence of this profound experience were qualitatively investigated through embodied, hermeneutic phenomenological interviews. Seven participants, recruited through social media platforms, sexuality, listservs, and networks, diverse in age, ethnicity, and sexual orientation, provided rich insights into their inner worlds. Employing body-based hermeneutics and felt sense inquiry, body-focused interviews were conducted utilizing focusing to uncover implicit bodily experiencing related to the phenomenon. Study findings capture the lived experiences of women who self-identified with this phenomenon. Seven essential themes emerged across the interviews describing the essence of mystical feminine jouissance from these women's inner experiencing of their embodied feminine energy: (a) awakened in the heart and the revived feeling function, (b) heightened aliveness as spirit in the body, (c) creatrix, (d) sensuality, pleasure, and bliss, (e) living through a web of relatedness, (f) sacred in the mundane, and (g) pain, wounding, and suffering. Finally, this study contributes to the methodological literature on embodiment research to reveal a focusing approach that{A0}operationalizes interview as sacred container, articulation of the implicit, deepening into experiencing, new relationship to experiencing, and trauma-informed interviewing. Overall findings suggest that an understanding of mystical feminine jouissance can enhance psychotherapeutic practices by fostering a deeper embodiment of the soul through somatics and expressive arts. Moreover, the use of embodiment in research, particularly through a focusing approach in interviews, emerges as a promising tool for feminist, somatic, and sexuality studies. The liberatory potential of embodying mystical feminine experiences challenges heteropatriarchal norms and offers a transformative power to deconstruct oppressive structures.
