PLAN FOR THE DAY...

We'll meet at the Avalon Orchards, where we’ll be creating a nature mandala alter for a fire ceremony to release anything you'd like to cast to the flames before walking through the threshold and leaving behind what can no longer pass beyond the arch to your future.

We'll walk to connect with the sacred land and bond with your chosen tree. We’ll be giving an offering in exchange for a stick to use for your wand and going on a shamanic journey with my drum to meet your spirit animal and channel visions from your tree.

Next up, we'll walk up to the Tor to do an initiation ceremony inside the tower which rests upon (what is believed to be) the heart chakra of the world, the resting place of merlin and entrance to the fairy kingdom, to bless the wand sticks and charge them with the energy of the powerful leylines. You’ll have a chance to collect the healing water from the white springs and to visit the mystical shrines hidden within on the way back down too! (They're currently only open on Tues , Thurs, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays). If you're feeling brave, you might even fancy taking a dip to baptise yourself in the White Springs!

We'll stop at Chalice Wells for lunch to cast our wishes into the well. This is the beautiful sacred garden where the chalice from the last supper was thrown beneath the tor, turning it into the red healing waters too.

After a lunch break, you'll be shown how to sculpt and decorate the wands with crystals and details of your choice, whilst exploring the meaning of expressing our souls potential and highest self. What role are you stepping into in the next chapter your life and who will you become?

While we let the wand clay harden, we'll head to the Goddess House for a beautiful wand ceremony , featuring a guided meditation to call in your higher self and heal the 7 chakras to clearr you energies for the journey ahead as a wand owner!

Finally, we'll end with a card reading and an initiation ceremony where you can invoke whatever you'd like to initiate yourself into for the next chapter of your life (we'll write this on a scroll which you can take home along with your new wand). This is a beautiful opportunity to make any commitments to spirit with one another as your sacred witness, as we bless your path ahead and drink the spring water to make it so!

Plus...You'll get to take your wand home in a free beautiful wooden treasure chest with scroll and golden feather!
