Across time and place, rites of passage have marked the sacred threshold between who we’ve been and who we are becoming. Yet, in modern culture, we often move from one phase to the next without pause, without honoring the transformation taking place within us.

The Wilderness Rites of Passage Vision Quest is an 8-day ceremonial journey designed to create space for true initiation, a time to honor what has been and claim what is ready to emerge. Whether you are stepping into adulthood, embracing the empty nest, transitioning through menopause, moving through grief, shifting careers, or stepping into elderhood—this is an opportunity to consciously mark the passage from one season of life to the next.

The retreat unfolds in three phases:

🌿 Preparation in Community – We begin by gathering together, grounding in intention, and preparing for the solo time in nature. Through guided reflection and ceremony, you will receive the tools and teachings needed for your time alone.

🌿 Four Days & Nights in the Wilderness – Alone in the wild, without distractions, you will fast, reflect, and listen deeply to the land, your body, and your spirit. This is a time of release, transformation, and communion with something greater than yourself.

🌿 Integration & Return – After your time in solitude, we gather again in community to witness and honor each person’s journey, anchoring the insights and truths that have emerged.

This is not just a retreat—it is a rite of passage, a sacred threshold, a space to see yourself fully, honor who you have been, and step forward with clarity into who you are becoming.
