Soul Quest Wilderness Vigil
“I only went out for a walk, and finally concluded to stay out til sundown, for going out, I found, I was really going in.” John Muir
- Do you feel stuck without direction and purpose in your life?
- Are you longing for solitude and reflection to listen deeply within?
- Has the fullness of life evaporated your creative soul?
- Are you feeling the call to your authentic creative self to show you a more soul driven path?
Are you ready to plunge into the depths of your own mythic adventure into the wilderness, to step into the humble passage of seeking vision, then we invite you to this ancient ceremony.
A ceremony beyond any human teaching and has been carried out pan-culturally as a Rite-of-Passage, often referred to as a vision quest, for thousands of years. It is now our honour to carry this tradition into the modern day so that together we may flourish as individuals and communities with the earth.
You may feel the yearning within to descend to this wild place and cross that sacred threshold, into the sacred space of soul. It is quite something to enter this circle of wild solitude and willingly go without food for four days and nights.
This is a different way of being in the forest, as you are held in the womb of the earth. A place where only you can know what transpires there as you are touched by earth-based wisdom.

WILD BONES OF WINTER – One Day Quest .
Connect with the inspirational power of nature to allow your inner wisdom to rise up from deep within your bones.
“What you seek is seeking you” Rumi
THIS DAY LONG EVENT IS FOR YOU IF:
· You are wanting more direction in your life.
· You are in a transitional phase of life and are seeking guidance.
· You are ready to shed that which is no longer serving you.
· You want to step courageously into your wild power.
· You are wanting to embed in the peace and beauty of the natural world and give space for the wisdom of Stillness.
This day long experience mimics the longer version of the traditional Rite of Passage ceremony as we journey together into Nature and the stillness of Winter, a place where you may feel the soul calling you into something more, to mark a point of transition in your life or to seek insight and support to specific questions or challenges.
As we turn towards the months of winter, what wisdom is lying and waiting for us in the stillness of the frost, the smell of the rain or the cold on our skin. Maybe you are curious about what leafless tress may call up in you or how the slower polyrhythms of the birds aid us in slowing down. What may illuminate deep within as you give up a little bit of comfort to stand in the heart of Winter’s song?
Winter is a time of contemplating and reflecting, of bringing forth the wisdom for you, your family and future generations. It is said that we are all born into this world with a unique gift, and this is our soul’s purpose, but where is the soul? In many myths, folklore and cultures the “bones” are considered to house one’s soul. The “Wild Bones of Winter” journey invites us into those wild places to discover what lies deep in our own bones, so we may gain insight into what wisdom is wanting to emerge as our gift in this world.
As part of this one-day soulful event we will follow the 3 phases of a traditional Rite of Passage; Separation, Threshold and Incorporation. We will start the day with coming together in circle to explore each other’s intention, in the spirit of open-hearted listening. Stepping out of circle, you will then move into your own individual experience (Separation). Crossing a Threshold, we honour the transition into sacred liminal space where you will enter into a conversation with the land. Returning back through the threshold, you are welcomed back into circle to share what will have transpired out there in the mystery of the Natural world and the Winter landscape. (Incorporation).
“The seed must be frozen into its purpose before it can burst its winter casing and shoot forth green fire”. Steven Foster

Wild Depths of Autumn- Day Long Wilderness Vigil
Connect with the inspirational power of nature to descend into your inner wisdom hidden in the depths of your being.
“What you seek is seeking you” Rumi
THIS DAY LONG EVENT IS FOR YOU IF:
· You are wanting more direction in your life.
· You are in a transitional phase of life and are seeking guidance.

· You are wanting to embed in the peace and beauty of the natural world and give space for the wisdom of Stillness.
This day long experience mimics the longer version of the traditional Rite of Passage ceremony as we journey together into Nature and the darkening of Autumn, a place where you may feel the soul calling you into something more, to mark a point of transition in your life or to seek insight and support to specific questions or challenges.
As we turn towards the months of Autumn, what wisdom is lying and waiting for us in the withering of leaves, the smell of the dampening earth or the threshold of the lowering light. Autumn is a time of introspection, of seeking the wisdom residing inside you. Maybe you are curious about what the shadow of the land may call up in you to harvest for the cooler months ahead. What may illuminate deep within as you give up a little bit of comfort to stand in the heart of Autumns watery depths?

The women who became a fox-Story and creative writing workshop ONline
During this experience we will begin to track and trail the myth, stories and poetry of our own lives into a place where we may enter a calling into something deeper. As the images appear through story we will be accompanied with poetics and creative writing to get in touch with our “wild pelts”, our soft animal bodies and guided to follow the thread that we love to discover and uncover the magic of our interior world.
