What participants of the 2022 retreat experienced:


We begin by retracing the steps of Mary Magdalene through the magnificent French countryside and the sacred sites that have been associated with the Magdalene. Together we will go deep into the alchemical mysteries and the encoded secrets, invoking the Divine Feminine with ceremonies of ritual and healing. By exploring her path - her pain, her joy, her epiphanies - and exalting them through ceremony, we will come to a deeper experience of sacred relationship through love, faith and surrender to further empower our own rightful divine feminine within. This journey of initiation into the sacred mysteries of Mary Magdalene will be enhanced by our small thoughtful group of like minded individuals, as each will have a unique experience and each will be augmented by the other.


You are the keepers of sacred magic, the template of the divine feminine, protector of the Holy Grail, the goddess, the Holy of Holies. She is known by many, many names, including Mary Magdalene. Keepers of the sacred flame, you are being called to come together in community to be held, seen, to heal your wounds, our wounds of separation, of struggle, and profound forgetting. Together we will awaken, shift, heal, and evolve, stepping forward with our unique light, truth, and expression of the divine and physical form. As we heal one and awaken, we heal the many lifting, the planetary vibration and the collective consciousness. Together, we will unite all the aspects of her beauty, wisdom, power, and grace, and we will RISE as one, shining in our greatest love.

In this journey we will remember what is to dance in the delight of deep connections: to the beauty of Southern France, to the magic and myseries of Mary Magdalene, to each other and most importantly to our sacred, wise selves. Come heal, awaken, laugh, cry, lean into each other and RISE like the phoenix born anew and let your soul SING in the remembrance of your JOY.

Deep inside of you there is a knowing, a voice of wisdom that is ready to steer you on a path of expansion and a deeper expression of your soul’s truth and wisdom. It is calling you to RISE!

If one of more of these areas resonates your soul is calling you to shift and experience more ease, freedom and joy. We all have at least one major area in our lives that we wish to harmonize, empower or liberate. This is part of the human experience and journey to wholeness. To find true alignment in our outer world, we must first look inward to our limiting beliefs, subconscious patterns, unwanted habits, and childhood wounds that keep us in a place of being stuck or triggered.

Our primary relationship is one with self. It is the soil in which we grow the garden of our lives experience by experience. Our inner terrain must be tended to with the utmost care. The preparation of our soil with nourishing elements is imperative for our intentional seeds to grow and flourish. Equally important is the removal of any unwanted weeds by their roots so that we may bear the full bounty of fruits in our gardens of plenty.

The alchemy of healing our sacred container, our physical vessel for our soul's expression, transforms our entire outlook and expectation of life. Healing at the DNA level elevates our physical vitality, emotional intelligence and our spiritual understanding of life and our place within it.

Together we will CLEAR old Patterns of limitation and lack from your belief systems, emotional body, mental constructs, and your cellular consciousness to source deeper CONNECTION within. In our intimate and sacred COMMUNITY we will open to greater listening and COMMUNICATION with your inner “wise one.” Together we will CELEBRATE and bless every lesson and experience from our past that has brought us perfectly here and now. We will CULTIVATE authentic COMMUNION with ourselves. Then through sacred CEREMONY you will CO-CREATE a new intentional vision for your future, opening to a new sacred relationship or enhancing sacred relationship with another with greater intimacy, vulnerability and the highest expression of our light. By expanding your CONSCIOUSNESS, together we will remember our infinite ability to experience love, faith, surrender, and unity.
