20- 25th November 2025.Magdalena: A Six-Day Journey into the Feminine Mysteries
Magdalena is a six-day journey into the deep mysteries of the feminine for women and female bodies. Born from a longing to restore the ancient initiations of the feminine into everyday life, this path seeks to reweave the wisdom teachings of the priestess into the fabric of our communities and homes, accessible to all women.
It arises from the remembering that life itself is born from great spirals and cycles, and that there are moments in time—thresholds, crossroads, veils—that call us into initiation. These are the moments that shape us deeply, moments that demand ritual, ceremony, and the guidance of those who have walked this path before us.
On this journey, we will reconnect with our first blood, honoring the innocence of the body, the sacredness of eros. With loving presence, we turn toward the deep teachings of our wombs, the mysteries that have been guarded in the dark cauldrons within us.
We will stitch together the fractured parts of ourselves—healing the divide between mother and whore, a split cast upon Magdalene by a world that seeks to diminish the fullness of the feminine. We open the door to the shadow of the feminine, inviting the energies that have long imprisoned us to be released.
We welcome the deity of death into our lives, seeking the teachings of birth, death, and rebirth as living testimonies to an ecstatic, embodied existence. Through this sacred process, we come to understand that the cyclical nature of life is not one of limitation, but of infinite possibility and transformation.
We will delve into our oracular gifts, awakening our intuitive wisdom and psychic channels. And through all of this, we invite the teachings of love—love that moves through the beauty and vulnerability of the human heart, the very heart of the feminine.

"My week of journeying with Magdalena was one of deep surrender and catharsis for the control of my feminine. The shackles by which I keep myself ‘correct’ are slowly disintegrating.
I danced, I moved and prayed at the altar of life and love itself. I felt it all, leaning into the coven where nothing less than truth and love is held. I grieved the parts of me I have cast out for so long and held hands with the soul I am proud to house."

Magdalena is a principle of LIFE that anchors in the core of the heart and extends downwards to the smallest molecule and upwards to the expanse of cosmos.
Magdalena is the capacity to hold all existence within the core of the heart without faltering; a staunch determination to not fall into the allurement of duality, polarity or separation.
Magdalena is the bridge to all worlds, all kingdoms, all beings through the remembering of our shared LIFE and its inherent sacredness.
Magdalena is both the serpent and the sword.
It is the column of light that holds our spine erect with the remembering of who we are and where our life is sourced.
It is the exuberant vibration of colour, texture and tone dancing around this column.
A humming, throbbing, pulsing stream of living electricity relating with all worlds.
From crown to base
from sun to earth.
Magdalena is the marriage of Christ and Mary inside us, It is our own crucifixion, resurrection AND descension.
Magdalena is a gaze that cracks open the heart in grief for all the times we forgot
That we are this love.
