We find our feet have chosen to tread this earth at a time of environmental upheaval. A time when the voice of the earth-womb needs us to reweave, reclaim and retrieve our vital, wild, sensual, wise, innocent selves. While there are many roads to healing and wholing, we seek to engage with the holiness that is cultivated between our inner masculine and feminine, catalyzed by the interplay between ourselves and those of a different gender. We call this the interior Sacred Marriage; the journey toward the Alchemical Androgyne.

L’Androgyne Alchemique workshop will address the question of what happens when we, as individuals, give ourselves the time and space to look at the sacred masculine and sacred feminine within. What is created when we start to work with these two energies in balance? What new energy emerges out of a synthesis of these polarities? We will utilize oracular (intuitive) seeing and speaking through the wisdom of body, focusing on the voice of the throat, heart and the root centers.

We will draw on practices from The Path of Pollen, focusing in particular on oracular work, mirror work, movement mediations and ceremony.

The workshop seeks to bring men, women and gender fluid individuals together for healing and inner gnosis. We will walk ourselves back to our original blueprint, working with how we speak, how we feel, and how we love.

This workshop retreat is designed for women and womb-identifying people who wish to deepen their connection to their own body of wisdom and develop greater capacity to flow with eros, intuition, and creative energy. This workshop will include practices based in womb-shamanism, and is deeply informed by the honey bee and the serpent. It will also include bodywork informed by Craniosacral techniques, however it is not a Craniosacral training. We will be engaging in oracular and intuitive work. Oracular work is a form of seeing beyond the veil and receiving information from the Otherworld (spirit/the divine) and the Earth herself.  It is done in relationship with the natural world and connects you to your own voice as a Voice of the Earth. As a result, this form of seership is healing to self, others, and the Earth. 

Through shamanic practices we will seek to engage with the life force energy of nature as a source of eros, vitality, nourishment, and gnosis.   This work will engage with the womb on both a physical and spiritual level.  It is open to women and/or those who identify as women or are gender fluid, regardless of whether or not you have a physical womb. 

The workshop seeks to drop women deeply into their own body of knowing through engaging with the erotic life force energies of nature. We will work with movement, sacred anointment, sound and embodiment practices to awaken the voice of the womb and the heart.
