Crossing the Threshold
A Journey from Transformation to Vision
A powerful threshold of transformation, release, and the embodiment of a new vision.
From November 20–22, 2026, we gather during a meaningful celestial transition, as the Sun moves through the final degrees of Scorpio and enters Sagittarius, creating a symbolic passage from inner transformation toward expansion, wisdom, and purpose.
This three-day ceremonial experience invites you to journey inward, release what has completed its cycle, and reconnect with the vision that is ready to emerge. Through plant medicine ceremonies, meditation, integration practices, and embodiment work, we create space to explore limiting patterns, unresolved emotions, and identities that may no longer reflect who you are becoming.
The energy of Scorpio invites us to go deeper, turn inward, surrender, and transform, while the Sun’s entrance into Sagittarius opens the path toward greater vision, meaning, exploration, and purpose. The waxing Moon during these days further supports this movement from inner darkness toward greater clarity and illumination.
This retreat also offers an opportunity to explore the balance between the divine feminine and divine masculine within us: intuition and action, surrender and direction, nurturing and discipline, renewal and purpose. By bringing these complementary forces into greater harmony, we create a foundation for authentic expression and for bringing our transformation into everyday life.
Through ceremonial work and the wisdom of plant medicine, we are invited to release what no longer serves us, reconnect with our inner truth, and bring a renewed vision into embodied experience.
From depth to vision. From release to renewal. From inner truth to embodied purpose.
