Join us for this potent Equinox retreat. The Equinox, situated between the lunar and solar eclipses, is a very special time to create or regain balance. Eclipses also open a portal that allows us to go within and transform more easily.
Why this, why now?
We have never been more in need of the Awakened Feminine than now. Awakening what has been slumbering requires us to access deeper layers of ourselves. Let us guide you on a transformative Underworld journey to access layers of yourself that may be challenging to maintain in daily life, where responsibilities require us to dial up certain ways of being while blunting others. We will guide you to enter a deeper space to find not only a more direct experience of stillness and softness but also the chaos of the unknown and wild! This is an invitation to release yourself from the Overworld to discover more trust, choice, and desire as you allow yourself to open to the felt sense of your body.
It’s natural as we go through life to protect ourselves by putting our wombs to sleep. Some of the costs of this choice are reduced life force energy, low libido, dissatisfaction with life, and even illness. Do you dare to dedicate yourself to claiming your birthright? Are you willing to cross the divide within, to take a journey into the Underworld, to give up pretense, to release and surrender your ideas of how you think it “should be,” to discover and claim your Divine Inheritance? Do you care to take a leap toward freedom, to become someone new while returning to the ancient wisdom you carry within you?
We invite you. We welcome you. We call you to join in sisterhood to experience the infinite dance of Existence beyond the everyday known. It is your birthright, your honor, your pleasure, your most sacred invitation as a woman to access the creative life force, soul force power, and sheer energy in your womb space. From this knowing, you can choose what you desire to birth into being.
To be born a woman means it is your sovereign right to experience pleasure and to walk in beauty on this glorious Earth. To be born a woman means that you have an innate connection to Earth and to Creation that is powerful beyond our wildest imagination to comprehend. What will you do with this inheritance? Remain unconscious? Ignore and deny the truth of who you are? Would you continue to grin and grit to get by as best you can, pretending that everything is fine when you are struggling…or will you choose to join others who desire to awaken?
The war between the sexes is the underlying polarity in consciousness that is the source of war, rape, pillage, plunder, starvation, child trafficking, and many other atrocities happening on our planet. There is an outer war – between men and women – and an inner war – between our internal Masculine and Feminine. The challenges we face to be good to ourselves and to others via relationship are tremendous. Do you desire to live in harmony with yourself, with other humans, with all forms of life on Earth, and to be an example of what is possible in a real way? Do you see what a predicament we are in, here and now, on Earth? Would you like to be able to do your part with joy and balance, rather than feeling disillusioned or anxious?
Healing our womb space, returning to the naturalness of our feminine beauty, power, and receptivity, and awakening our strong womb heart (Yes – we as women have a heart in our chest and an even deeper heart in our womb!) are foundational to learning to live from the truth of our soul, to be who we were born to be. This is what brings us into alignment with Life and allows us to live a life that is grounded in beauty, pleasure, and good humor.

This retreat is perfect for you if any, some, or all of the following questions resonate:
- Do you yearn to live in harmony with your partner or loved ones? Do you struggle to feel your emotions and to allow them to flow in a mature adult way, without repression, denial, or unbridled self-expression that alienates others?
- Do you experience challenges when you get into an intimate relationship, or do you avoid relationships entirely because of what arises? Do you desire more intimacy, yet feel afraid to open up and be vulnerable?
- Do you mistrust or lack faith in the Masculine and/or the Feminine? Do you cringe when you feel the competition you have with other women, or the ways that you have hardened your heart, becoming a toughened version of yourself to survive in the world? Do you feel secretly jealous when you see other women succeeding in their careers and having beautiful relationships?
- Do you long to soften, to know yourself in your feminine beauty, and to experience your innate power and wisdom? Do you wish to be able to know what it is to surrender deeply into pleasure and bliss?
- Have you given up on sex? Do you avoid it, or wish it were better or different? What would it be like for you to love and appreciate your body? Would you like to be clear about your Yes and your No? Would you like to experience greater relaxation and pleasure in your erotic being, and to have more frequent, longer, more powerful orgasms?
- Would you like to have access to your full creative power? Do you sense that you have a destiny that you have not yet manifested, and you don’t want to go to your deathbed without doing what you came here to do? Or do you desire to do so much, yet have no idea how to get started, or how to accomplish your dreams while sleeping the eight hours a night you need to stay sane?
- Do you experience chronic guilt, shame, or unworthiness?
- Or perhaps none of these questions accurately reflects your experience, but there’s a pulse inside you that feels pulled to this retreat – you don’t know why, you just know you want to come!
We believe that opening, healing, clearing, and awakening the womb in Nature, and with the support of our sisters, is the key to awakening full power and pleasure in your life. For all these reasons, we sincerely invite you to join us for the Awakening Womb Equinox Retreat.
