A Winter's Rest
be held by the magic of winter on this solstice retreat
On this longest night of the year, you are being invited to take rest in your inner landscape. Let the noise of the linear world around you quiet down for these two days and let the stillness of your interiority light up.
This Winter Solstice retreat is a sacred container where you can show up authentically as you are in this moment and find respite from the busyness of life.
The winter holds the magic of stillness and dreaming. In this space so you can fall into the holding of the cyclical energies of your body and the earth. There is nothing you need to prove in this space. There is nothing you need to be beyond yourself and nothing you need to do beyond resting.
In that moment of silent stillness we will connect with our intuitive guidance for where we desire to walk in this next year. This retreat is designed to enable you to journey through this holiday season and into the new year resourced and rested.
During this Solstice Retreat, you will tap into the magic of...
the archetypal energy and dreaming with the tarot
meditation to discover a deep rest within
being in harmony with the cycles of body + earth
winter dreaming and visioning for the new year
community that values you for who you are

Meet Your Guide, Meghan (she/they)
Hey all! If you are new around here, you may not yet know that I’m a cyclical living guide weaving together cycle magic for the regeneration of body + earth + community. I’m here to create sacred space as we journey into remembrance and reclamation of our power through ritual, bodyfulness, meditation and tarot.
Since I was a young child, the winter season has held magic for me. My favorite moment being freshly laid snow under the light of the full moon. I loved going outside after everyone else had fallen asleep and just be in the silent stillness watching the moonlight glitter on the snow. Now following along the wheel of the year, I am not surprised that the winter solstice is one of my favorite times to slow down and mark the changing of the seasons and my connection to nature.
This retreat is a time for us all to come together and rest in the stillness, to be one with the wheel of the earth, and remember that we are loved just as we are. I can’t wait to share my love for the winter magic with you.
Sending love,
Meghan
“I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says, “Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.”
