Spring Women’s Art & Spirit Retreat
March 23rd, 2025
Sisters of Fate ~ Women’s Art & Spirit 𝙂𝙤𝙙𝙙𝙚𝙨𝙨 Retreat
An all-day immersion into ceremony and ritual; artmaking as inquiry and knowing; Sacred Circles of Women; altered states of consciousness; into exploring our Counter-Heroine journey and creating our own story of mythic Enchantment.
Spin. 🧵 Measure. 🪡 Cut. ✂️
Walk with Goddesses of Fate who have been called many names ~ the Norns, the Maoirai, the Fates are but 3 examples ~ and explore the story that was written over you, yet was never chosen by you. Through a guided process, you will Spin, Measure, and Cut this story, and finally Weave your AUTHENTIC storyline and claim it as your own.
Do you sometimes or often feel like you’re living in a distopian or shadow fairytale? Or feel like you’re navigating a life that somehow has been coloured by the expectations and power of others you didn’t choose?
Become the author of your own life by taking up your power over the narrative. By delving deeply into the stories within our unconscious, we will uncover and unearth the strings that have been holding us down… We will measure our plotlines and how authentic they are, and we will cut away anything that isn’t true to our soul-story.
Through writing, ritual artmakimg, guided Shamanic journeying, and the Sacred use of ceremonial Circling, we will each Weave an AUTHENTIC story that will guide our Fate moving forward.
Sisters of Fate 🔥
Are you feeling the YEARNING to come into your magic ✨? To let it seep into every pore as you fully embrace the power that lives at the center of you?
Are you READY to witness and be witnessed in your Divine Feminine story? To spin, measure, and cut while sitting within the Circle, as women have done since the very beginning?
Are you WILLING to lean into the story of the Fates and allow these Goddesses to Guide your magic as you move into the clearing, seeding, and growing energy of the Spring Equinox?
Are you CHOOSING to step into the Power of Circle and your Magic as Creatrix? To resist the stories being told over you and FULLY take up the making of your own Fate? Join us.
BY REQUEST – a self-guided process is being developed for those who cannot attend the live, in-person event. This package will be kept at the Early Bird pricing, and will be available to any who wish to engage. The package will require the same amount of time and dedication to the work as the live retreat, you will just be able to schedule it into your personal flow and life. It shall include instructions on how to create the Sacred Container, how to work into the rituals and art making, as well as recorded Shamanic journeys to complete. An online Sacred Sharing Circle at a later date will be included (optional).

Your Retreat Immersion Includes:
* a specific focus around issues and healing that women face (and often have been facing for generations), including Shadow Work and inviting support from the Goddess
* ceremonies to cleanse the space and the energy we each bring in, as well as integration of the work
* artmaking as a way of inquiry, of exploring the soul, and as a pathway of healing
* Shamanic journeys/guided meditations, which are partly guided and partly held by my drum, to bring participants into their inner world/psyche/spiritual plane via an altered state of consciousness
* free writing and journalling
* Circles of women, where we understand and can share our common experience as women who walk the world
* professional facilitation and support by a Professional Art Therapist with spiritual integration (meaning I hold a holistic space, and all spiritual traditions are deemed valid and true to each person. All are welcome)
* all art and creating supplies- a special treat will be provided in the closing Circle. Participants are encouraged to bring their lunches and eat together as an ancient way of connection and relating
* the sacred space of the studio, which is steeped in intentional sacredness and holds us in a private and supportive energy
