About the Retreat:
“The work of magic is this, that it breathes and at every breath transforms realities”
~ Rumi.
The days shorten, and shadows gain strength. There's a coolness in the air and a sense of other worlds and senses beyond our day to day experience. Join our circle of men this Fall as we explore and celebrate the powers of the Magician and of the water element. The Magician is that part of the mature masculine focused on applying special knowledge to what is needed. Oftentimes the Magician shows up as a trickster, while others he may keep his knowledge to himself. We seek to find the Magician in balance, using his gifts for his own self discovery and the benefit of the village.
Come help support our young men as they learn to be conscious of the mysteries within themselves and the world.
You’re Invited!
Each of the four seasons of the year, men and young men retreat to a woodland encampment, away from day-to-day distractions, to provide a rites-of-passage experience and honor youths into their emergence as men. You are invited to become a part of this experience.
