I've lived many and engraved my path in 16 books.
My name is Coelia and I write about men who cross-dress or live through gender transition.
I first lived with the shame of an inadequate body and then nights in women's clothes with makeup smeared by tears. The female part in me, instead of disappearing, asked for life.
So I decided to undergo transition, but it went wrong due to a series of unfortunate circumstances.
It was then that I met Nei
Gong, a Taoist meditation practice.
I focused on who I wanted to become and
not on who I was: a fire was generated that transformed me, integrating my female part with the male one.
Since then, I have
managed to live many years as a man and some days as a woman and have learned a lot from this condition. So, I started writing novels.
"A desire is a fire that bars your way to inner knowledge.
If you cross it and come out, you will understand why it attracted you and you will be purified.
But if you stay inside, you will consume yourself."
A Tantra master
I have written sixteen novels that intertwine spirituality, identity transformation, and narrative fantasy in a unique human journey.
They are not sixteen separate stories: they are sixteen faces of the same crystal, which, rotating, reveals different light.
The four Cycles that collect them — "One Spirit", "Three Stars", "Five Kingdoms" and "Seven Souls" — are narrative mandalas in which the novels become kaleidoscopic fragments that acquire meaning in a larger context.
Seen through Taoist alchemy, such Cycles accompany the practitioner from the body to emotions, to the mind and finally to spiritual unity.
Seen through the Kabbalah, the Cycles reflect the descent of divine energy into the world.
Each Cycle title is a number, a symbol, a key. Each novel is a crumb of bread to guide you on the path.
