Channelling down from the cosmic planes is often times the order of the day for Welsh-born shadow tantrika and intuitive astrologer Diana Mau, whose parallel love of theatrics, play and creative expression inspired her in 2003 to dream up and co-found Volupté – the very first burlesque cabaret supper club in London this side of the 21st century.
A natural psychic intuitive, she has spent the last 8 years immersed in the realms of the shamanic and her beloved Underworld, where she has adventured and journeyed with everything from ritual theatre and storytelling, shadow and power play, Tantra, somatic work, Qabalistic magic, and Existential Kink – a practice and philosophy that has been deeply woven into her life since 2016. Her own experiential account of the practice made it into the 2020 book by founder Carolyn Elliott, and she has been a certified Existential Kink coach since 2023.
Diana has lived for many years on the magical crystal island of Ko Phangan in Thailand, where she recently opened Pandora’s Box, a space that offers – as well as an array of other delights – the mystical erotic Temple: Love’s Labyrinth.
Amongst her many other guises, she has also been Deputy Editor for a South East Asian entertainment travel magazine, and has owned and run a number 1 backpacking hostel in Thailand.
