Your summer dreams are waiting to come true
Imagine a weekend of expansive healing and joy in vibrant, like-minded community. You awaken to the sounds of summer’s heartsong: wind rustling through the evergreen branches, a cool creek flowing, and birds greeting the warm sun with sweet songs. From morning until night, you are invited to partake in potent nature & creativity-infused healing & magical ceremonies. In between you are nourished with organic, farm-to-table meals, have the chance to cultivate friendships in conscious community, and have plenty of time to do what you please - taking a walk through the woods, a swim in the creek, reading a book in a hammock, enjoying the sauna or steam room, or just being. Life is good, and you’ve earned this spaciousness to tend to your body & spirit.
Join us for this transformational healing & nature retreat to restore your body & spirit, release heaviness + stagnation, and connect deeply to the earth’s energy and to your own capacity to bloom & flourish. Celebrating the abundance of Summer Solstice under a juicy Full Strawberry Moon in the cleansing waters of Cancer season, we will gather in the pristine Oregon woods for 2 days and 2 nights of ceremony, creativity, play, medicinal movement, magic-making, revelry, and community connection.
During our time together you will enjoy a thoughtfully curated schedule of healing + magical activities such as Body Temple Dance, Reiki sound bath, fire ceremonies, water rebirth blessing ceremony, medicine songs, tea blending, nature crafting, and more! During downtime you can enjoy the sauna, steam room, walking trails, and beautiful property. We'll be nourished by Organic, farm-to-table meals, will stay in cute & cozy cabins, and you'll receive a goodie bag of herbal magic products to take home.
This retreat is for the hard-working mammas, femmes, and queers who are ready to refill their cups, remember their magic, and experience deep, healing communion with earth and self.
You will leave the retreat feeling lighter, more inspired, cup full, and ready to step into your fullest embodiment of self this summer.
This June, we will merrily meet to honor the beginning of Summer, and all of the abundant joy & blooming that comes along with it. Summer Solstice falls on June 20th, is the longest day of the year, and a highly celebrated day on the Pagan wheel of the year. During Summer Solstice time we honor the sun & the light we all carry, and we offer gratitude for all that is abundantly blooming and coming to fruition in the earth, and well as what is coming to full bloom within our own hearts and spirits.
Summer Solstice ushers in watery Cancer Season - a time to tend to our own inner tender places, connect with our own heart’s truth & needs, and allow ourselves to receive deep & nurturing love and care from ourselves and others.
At this time we are also blessed with the Full Strawberry Moon in Capricorn on June 21st, a lunation that helps to ground us during the ebbs & flows of Cancer season, and connect us to all of the sweetness and support that the earth has to offer.
At the peak of these auspicious cosmic blessings, we will gather together for Full Bloom: A Summer Solstice Healing, Magic, and Nature Retreat. The stars will guide us, the Sun will warm our spirits, Venus will grow our pleasure, and the Moon will help us to see & believe in our dreams. The earth will hold us in our growth, water will cleanse old ways of being, fire will activate our magic, and the wind will carry our songs to the cosmos & beyond.
