A Journey into the Shadow Heart...

Step into a sacred weekend devoted to transformation, reclamation, and the deep feminine.
The Dark Goddess Retreat is a three-day immersion designed for womb-holding and female-identifying beings ready to explore healing through shadow work, embodied movement, and restorative connection.
Held at the serene Valaterra Retreat Center, this gathering offers a supportive, heart-centered container to meet the parts of yourself often hidden, softened, or suppressed. Rediscover the wisdom and strength that rise when you meet your shadow with compassion.

What Awaits You...

Your journey begins with a gentle digital detox, allowing you to step into presence. After settling in, we gather for our Opening Circle to meet the archetypes of the Dark Goddess and establish our shared agreements.
The evening session, “When Grace Has Teeth”, inspired by Kali, awakens fierce compassion and clears the path for the transformative work to come.
​
Saturday guides you through the triple wisdom of Hecate and the mythic descent of Persephone. Through movement, meditation, creative practice, breathwork, and sound, you’ll explore:
-
The Maiden: curiosity, play, innocence, victimhood
-
The Mother: compassion, emotional truth, embodied listening, maternal projection
-
The Crone: discernment, release, sovereignty, unsolicited wisdom
Throughout the day, optional Reiki sessions, oracle readings, and professional guidance will offer deeper alignment and reflection.
​
As evening unfolds, we open our hearts with a Cacao Ceremony and enter into Sacred Rage Ecstatic Dance, inspired by Lilith. This alchemical space will initiate emotional release, liberation, and movement medicine.
Our final day begins with a Drum Wash Ceremony and a period of Noble Silence to settle the body and integrate insight.
We then enter the Sacred Sexuality Circle, honoring pleasure and sensuality as sacred birthrights and exploring conscious indulgence from a place of reverence rather than excess.
​
We celebrate the completion of our journey with a Queen’s Feast & Coronation, where each participant will be honored for their courage and rebirth. Expect tenderness, laughter, and a profound sense of homecoming.​
