Wild Awake: Transformation!

From the Rainbow Warrior Awaken! deck by Mara Berendt Friedman and Trinity Harris

Dear Sisters*,

I invite you to take part in a deep heart's journey at this upcoming women's* retreat:

TRANSFORMATION: Death and Rebirth  March 4 - 7, 2019
Entrance to the "Singing Canyon"

Pilgrimage North
Winter season
Water element

Monday evening to Thursday afternoon at Boulder Mountain Guest Ranch in Boulder, Utah.

Opening Celebration: Sowing the Seed, a wake for lives we leave behind. Each woman writes her own Eulogy before the celebration. Friends and family are invited for the opening celebration Monday evening.


This is one of a 5-part series, where each retreat has a corresponding season, element, direction, emotion, voice, time of life...  There are many varying systems for aligning these qualities; I am working with the way that I have studied (a form of Chinese medicine) as an organizing principle, because I am most familiar with it and it works.



The "pilgrimage" is in both inner and outer landscapes.  The outer movement over the land in a certain direction is both metaphorically and physically evocative.  We move with an intention to practice relationship with self and other, with the land and nature, with the Divine/Creator in all, including ourselves.


The vision is for an immersion experience: for the group to sleep and dream together/nearby as much as possible.  Lodging will be at the Boulder Mountain Guest Ranch

Contact Amber to register or for more information.  
Community offering price: $75 to $200 sliding scale includes lodging when you register by February 28.  Food will be partial potluck, partial bring your own.
