🌱 Spring Equinox Retreat: The Seed 🌱
Exploring themes of balance, emergence and new beginnings
The Spring Equinox is a moment of perfect balance between light and dark. Beneath the surface, seeds are stirring, quietly and patiently preparing to rise. This retreat invites you to awaken gently from winter, reconnect with your intentions, and tend what is ready to grow. Through grounding movement, energy work, sound, and story, we’ll explore how to nourish new beginnings with clarity and care. Seasonal astrology will offer insight into the energies shaping the months ahead.
🔆 Summer Solstice Retreat: The Fire 🔆
Exploring themes of vitality, expression and fullness
The Summer Solstice marks the longest day of the year, where the Earth is at her most vibrant and alive. This is a time of celebration, embodiment, and courageous self-expression. This retreat will guide you to step fully into your aliveness, honor your creative life force, and reconnect with joy and pleasure. Expect expansive free movement, an immersive sound journey, and ritual rooted in celebration. Astrology will help illuminate how to work consciously with this peak energy.
🍂 Autumn Equinox Retreat: The Golden Threshold 🍂
Exploring themes of integration, harvest and release
At the Autumn Equinox, light and dark meet once again, reminding us that letting go is a sacred act. This is the season of harvest and truth and gentle integration.
This retreat will give an opportunity to reflect on what this year has offered you, and explore what you are carrying forward and what is ready to be laid down. Through grounding practices, sound healing, story medicine, and astrology, we’ll honor the harvest and prepare for the inward turn of the darker months.
