The Witching Hour
The Witching Hour is an immersive Halloween weekend retreat for women ready to explore the hidden parts of themselves and reclaim the power they’ve been taught to suppress. Rooted in ritual, creativity, embodiment, and sacred sisterhood, this transformative experience invites participants to journey alongside a Dark Goddess archetype, uncovering the wisdom, truth, and gifts that live in their shadows.
Through sound healing, identity work, mask-making, movement, ceremony, and celebration, women are guided through a powerful process of release, remembrance, and self-reclamation. This is a retreat for the woman ready to meet herself fully: wild, wise, and unapologetically whole.

6pm - Community Supper
7pm - Opening Circle: The Summoning of the Goddesses
The sacred opening ceremony that invites participants to step across the threshold into The Witching Hour and begin their journey inward. Through teachings on the Dark Feminine, the wisdom of autumn, and the symbolism of transformation, each woman is introduced to her guiding goddess archetype and the deeper truths she has come to awaken.
8:15pm - Dark Goddess Sound Journey
A deeply immersive healing experience that blends sound, breath, and guided visualization to help participants journey inward and connect with the wisdom of their assigned goddess. Through this sacred meditation, women are invited to listen for what is ready to be reclaimed, awakened, and remembered within themselves.
9:15pm - Goddess Bracelet Creation
A hands-on ritual where participants begin crafting a personal talisman to carry the energy and wisdom of their journey. Using charms, crystals, and meaningful symbols, each bracelet becomes an evolving reflection of what is being reclaimed, remembered, and awakened throughout the retreat.
10:15pm - Fireside Witch’s Circle
An intimate evening gathering around the fire where women come together to share their names, their goddess guide, and the intention they are carrying into the weekend.

10:30am - Crowned in Shadows: A Dark Feminine Reclamation Ritual & Workshop
A powerful journey into the hidden parts of the feminine: the rage, desire, intuition, ambition, sensuality, and power that many women have been taught to suppress. Through meditation, identity excavation, journaling, and reflection, participants uncover what has been silenced and name what they are ready to reclaim. The ritual culminates in a sacred crowning ceremony, where each woman creates a symbolic crown and are invited to speak the truth of what they are reclaiming.
12:30 - Light Lunch
1:30 - 3:30 - Sacred Space
A gentle invitation to slow down and honour rest as part of the healing process. This intentionally unscheduled time offers space to wander, reflect, create, connect, or simply be — allowing your body and spirit to receive without expectation.
3:30pm - The Face of the Goddess: A Dark Goddess Mask Ritual
A creative and symbolic workshop exploring the many faces of the Dark Feminine and the truths we often keep hidden. Through ritual, reflection, and hands-on creation, participants design a ceremonial mask that represents the aspect of themselves ready to emerge, uncovering who they are becoming.
6pm - Community Supper
8:30pm - The Witch’s Ball
The signature celebration of the weekend. A powerful evening of embodiment, liberation, and self-expression. Wearing their handcrafted masks and symbolic crowns, participants are invited to dress as the version of themselves they are reclaiming and step fully into her energy. Surrounded by music, fairy lights, seasonal treats, and sacred connection, this is a night to celebrate not who you are becoming, but who you have always been beneath the layers. A ritual of joy, power, mystery, and coming home to yourself.
9am - Community Breakfast
10:15am - The Dark Goddess Intention Wreath: A Journey Through Release, Reflection & Becoming
A grounding creative ritual where participants craft a symbolic wreath representing their transformation, using natural elements, crystals, charms, and sacred adornments. Through guided reflection on what they are releasing, what wisdom they are carrying forward, and who they are becoming, each woman creates a meaningful keepsake; sealing the lessons of her journey and the intentions she will carry home.

r1pm - Closing Circle & Final Blessing
The sacred final gathering where participants come together to honour the journey they have taken, reflecting on their goddess guide, what they have reclaimed, and the wisdom they will carry forward.
