A Luxurious Feminine Mysteries Retreat

A transformative 3-day, 2-night journey in the mystical landscapes of Joshua Tree, aligning with the powerful energies of the 999 portal. This retreat is a sacred call for the divine feminine to rise, heal, and shed all that stands in the way of her becoming.

ABOUT THE RETREAT

In the powerful Year of 9, a sacred number of completion, culmination, and soul integration, we gather beneath the desert sky where silence speaks and spirit moves. This year is guided by the ancient, alchemical energy of the Serpent, a symbol of transformation, rebirth, and feminine power. Together, these cosmic forces create the perfect container for deep release and quantum renewal.

Set in the heart of the serene desert, a landscape that mirrors our own inner expansiveness, this retreat offers you a rare opportunity to pause, shed old skins, and reconnect with your truest essence. The desert holds a mysticism all its own. Its stillness reveals what is ready to be healed. Its vastness invites clarity. And under the guidance of the serpent’s wisdom, you will be supported in rising from the ashes of what was into the luminous being you were always meant to be.

Through ritual, sound healing, movement, and sacred sisterhood, you will embark on a journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and deep spiritual activation. This is not just a retreat. It is a rite of passage.

If your soul has been calling for a breakthrough, a softening, a remembering, this is your sign.

THE SACRED VORTEX OF JOSHUA TREE

Shakti Rising Is A Sacred Container For The Woman Ready To Step Into The Fires Of Transformation, Shed Old Skins, And Rise As the Creatrix of Her Reality And Shift Humanity Through Her Light.

In the potent energies of the 999 portal and the Year of the Serpent, we gather in the sacred desert to awaken the Shakti within and embody the transformative magic of the feminine.

This retreat is an invitation to return to the sacred desert, embody your unique magic, and become the divine force of creation in your life.

INITIATION OF THE DESERT

The Desert is the Womb of Creation…

The desert is older than time itself. Formed by cosmic winds and ancient sunbursts, it stands as a primordial witness to the cycles of birth, death, and rebirth. It is the sacred void—the great cosmic womb where creation begins in silence and emerges in brilliance.

The desert is the alchemy of light and shadow, a crucible where elemental forces sculpt the earth's bones, mirroring the transformation within us. It is the realm of infinite potential, where life arises from the seemingly barren, and where the feminine mysteries of creation are awakened.

Like women, the desert holds paradox.

It is vast yet intimate, fierce yet nurturing, still yet ever-changing. Within its expanses, the unseen worlds whisper ancient secrets, guiding us to the depths of our own being.

Like the ancient desert priestesses, who journeyed through sand and sun to commune with the divine, we too walk this sacred land to access the primordial wisdom held in our bones and blood. They knew that creation is born from the void—the fertile darkness from which all life springs.

The desert holds the codes of metamorphosis.

It is a mirror to our own cycles of shedding, releasing, and rebirth. Just as the serpent sheds its skin to grow anew, so do we shed the layers that obscure our truth, rising transformed, empowered, and radiant.

The ancient mothers knew how to work with the desert’s raw power to awaken Shakti—the primordial feminine force of creation and destruction. They danced with the sun, prayed to the moon, and became conduits of cosmic energy, shaping reality through their bodies and wombs.

They understood the art of creation,

not through force, but through surrender to the rhythms of the cosmos. They knew how to weave the fabric of existence, how to call forth the winds of change, and how to birth the new through the power of their hearts and wombs.

This wisdom is encoded within us.

It lies dormant, waiting to be awakened through ritual, initiation, and ceremony. In the desert’s embrace, we remember our power as creatresses, as alchemists of light and shadow.

During Shakti Rising - Serpent Medicine Retreat, we journey into the desert’s sacred void to reclaim our creative power and awaken the divine feminine within.

We walk the ancient sands, listen to the whispers of the winds, and merge with the cosmic rhythms pulsing through the land. We journey into the depths of our being, reclaiming the pearl within our shadows, and rise as empowered creatresses of our worlds.

Shakti Rising - Serpent Medicine Retreat
