Dreaming the Ancestors
"Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature, a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. Her name is Wild Woman, but she is an endangered species." - Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Join us for our 6th Annual
Wild Women Fall Retreat
Dreaming the Ancestors
October 11-13th, 2019
at Crescent Moon Lodge in Rattan, Oklahoma
Wild Women are forest bathing on beautiful nature hikes on 8 miles of trails, Dancing and drumming around Bonfires of transformation, singing and chanting to offer prayers of healing for the waters, enjoying a relaxing soak in the hot tub under the stars, sharing dreams over morning coffee on the front porch over looking the spring fed pond, embodying and integrating with conscious movement practices, dream theater, and yoga.
Each night, we incubate dreams and each morning, we will enjoy breakfast while practicing the Lightning Method of Dream Sharing, in a safe and respectful way, where both the dream and the dreamer are honored and heard.
Together we embark on conscious shamanic group dream journeys, guided by the sound of the drum, to delve deep into the territory of the world behind the world. We seek to strengthen our conscious connections with the animal powers, spirit guides, and ancestors, for the purpose of healing, guidance and wisdom. It is here we find our wild instinctual nature and the deeper wisdom of the soul.
Dreams are a portal through which we can travel to connect with our departed ancestors, to learn what roots us into this Earth walk, and discover any ancestral contracts we have to complete. Together we explore the world behind the world, to track into the the depths of ancestral wisdom, to learn what our ancestors have to share with us. We explore ancestral healing of generations past and future through shamanic dream journeys, guided by the drum. We can stretch time and space, in non-ordinary reality, to connect with the soul of our soul, or higher self, where we may gain access to our soul contract and learn more about our soul purpose in this life. Together we will visit the Ancestral Library in the house of Time, to research information about our Ancestors, which may not be available in waking reality, but nothing is ever truly lost, in dreaming we can recover what belongs with us.
We light the sacred fires of transformation to release and let go and offer prayers of transgenerational healing.
We drum, and sing and dance in solidarity and celebration!
We walk the beautiful labyrinth to walk in the footsteps of the ancestors, and in the return journey, we walk the path of being an Ancestor. We will be accompanied during our Labyrinth Journey by the beautiful sounds of Jaime Goldstein and her Moon Gong.
