Let me paint you a picture of Summer Solstice at Earth Wisdom. Imagine if you will, 16 barefoot women, dressed in flowing dresses and crowned with floral circlets. Drinking sun tea made with their own hands. 16 women creating crystal essences, making floral mandalas, greeting the Solstice Sunrise and dancing around the fire at night.The Summer Solstice is the day when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky and the Earth receives the most solar, fiery, masculine energy. It is a time of action, manifestation and vitality. A time to find balance in your life and summon the courage to be the boldest version of yourself. This is a celebration of the return of light and the fire festivals. A time to celebrate the turning of the Wheel.
This is a women only camping retreat created for women to connect with nature, our inner Goddess energy and like-minded women. It is 3 days filled with a healthy mix of out-door adventure, workshops, ceremonies, guided journeys, delicious meals, Sacred song & dance, and more.

Camping is FREE if you bring your own tent, camper or van to sleep in. It is a 'dry' camp, meaning no water or electricity hook up. I do challenge campers to dress up their sites with solar lights, fun bedding, decorations, etc. (Also, you may like to bring your Goddess finery in the form of dress, skirt or scarves). If you do not have your own camp set up, we have a 16x16 tent that is set up with 6 cots. If you would like a cot and bedding in the shared tent, the price is an additional $50 added to the $265 event price. If camping is not for you, there are a couple of hotels in nearby Clare, and If you live nearby, you can always commute from your home.
