It's amazing how difficult it can be to get people to write about sexuality. Even though 'sex sells' on TV and in the movies… trying to get writers to share about sexuality is really difficult, it's just so darned personal!

I suppose so many people forget the other aspects of sexuality… the allure of the chase (and capture) of a mate, the intimacy of expressing our love for each other. Instead often we focus on the sexual act itself rather than the energy around it. Fortunately for us, our writers this issue were able to not only focus on the diverse aspects of sexuality but they expressed themselves in some of the most beautiful articles I've ever had the pleasure of publishing.

For me, there is not a more physical manifestation of sexuality than pregnancy. After all, once the chase is over and the dance is done… the energy of the union often brings about a new life… a baby. Chelsa has blessed us with a beautifully written birth-story - I sincerely hope you all take a moment to read it. Her story deeply moved me.

We also have a new columnist joining our team. Jeanette Roth has agreed to write our new "Technically Tarot" column. You'll find "Erotic Tarot: Naughty Novelty or Naked Truth?" a wonderful read but please don't view the page with young children around. The images are not appropriate for them to see!

So this issue is covering the many faces of sexuality. The energy, the pleasure, and the final manifestation of our love. I hope you enjoy the diversity of our writers' words as much as I enjoyed putting this issue together for you. Even though it can be difficult to write about, it can be equally hard to focus on our sexuality and it's many varied meanings in our lives… I hope this issue assists you in getting more in touch with yourself and your partner.
