Do you hear the deep inner calling to join on this pilgrimage? Each day you will immerse yourselves deeper in The Mother and, therefore, deeper into your own womb, heart and soul. The Magdalene will guide you into The Mother's mysteries, the very heart of dissolution, creation and transformation, within and without. This is a small intimate pilgrimage in France. It is an invitation to feel initiated, nourished, honored, reborn in your womb and yoni, deeply rooted within and in the mother, truly blessed by your connection with and to the Magdalene.

This pilgrimage is for women hearing the deep call from the Magdalene to remember their profound Roots into the Mother. This is for a very small intimate group of women, lodging together and sharing this deep inner and outer journey together each day; 8 days in a magical house in Cap d'Ail, right by the beautiful Mediterranean Womb Sea and near my Sacred Temple at the beach, here in the South of France, and 3 days of which in “La Maison Rouge”, a warm, cozy, wooden and romantic B&B, held by a Sacred Woman, right at the foot of the magical woods of the Magdalene in Sainte Baume. The nearest airport is Nice which is about a 30 minutes' drive.
You begin together on a Monday and conclude together the following Monday. Each day you will come together and perform rituals, initiations and inquiries; you will be living right by the Sea, the Mother's healing and nourishing Waters, where she welcomes you in Her Holy Yoni Temple and in Her Sacred Source, and you will visit the enchanted Forest of Sainte Baume, the very heartbeat of the Magdalene, and Her Mountains where She is said to have lived 30 years of Her life in and near Holy Caves, as well as the Basilica dedicated to Mary Magdalene in Saint-Maximin-Sainte Baume.
The retreat may be offered in English, French or German.
Please note that the pilgrimage will depend on the women, their energy, the circle, and what is needed.
The rituals are powerful and this pilgrimage is rich and intense and tender and open. There is a structure like river banks but inside them, the river needs to flow.
For the Magdalene Yoni Pilgrimage, you will be staying 8 days in a house in Cap d'Ail with a round spring water pool and large terrace, right at the foot of the Mediterranean Sea in the southeastern part of France, embedded in ancient mystical rocks . You have direct access to a mountain spring near the house flowing directly into the sea. You are gifted with sacred, healing rituals from Mother Earth, the Sea, and the Spring in deep connection with and the embodiment of her nourishing, abundant, and untamable nature.
You will experience how healing and nourishing gatherings in women's circles are, and how this feminine field in pure nature holds, strengthens, and celebrates you. Through mindful bodywork and womb rituals, you will dive deep into your own body, womb, and yoni, cleanse and open yourselves, and encounter the infinite source within you, the gateway to your soul, to the wild primordial feminine power of nature and that of the Mediterranean Sea immediately surrounding you.
In the middle of your Magdalene Yoni Pilgrimage, you will visit Magdalene's Basilica in Saint-Maximin - Sainte Baume, a 2 hours' drive away, where some of her relics are said to be kept. Right after that, you will continue to follow the footsteps of Magdalene in the mountains and magical forests of Sainte Baume and get very close to Her here.
You will spend 2 to 3 days there in Her enchanted forest, where you will ask to meet Her through powerful and soulful rituals and be admitted into Her Holy Caves, where She is said to have spent the last 30 years of Her life. During this time, you will stay 2 nights at the Maison Rouge in Sainte Baume, a magical red wooden bed and breakfast directly at the foot of Her sacred forest.
During your pilgrimage, you will also celebrate yourselves with yoga, dance, bathing, swimming, and healthy, delicious food that will be freshly prepared for you every day with love and savor. You will allow yourselves time out and accompany each other in conversation or sometimes in silence. You will come and live together in a close community during these 8 days, support each other, be there for each other, and also have enough time individually to embrace such a beautiful, powerful, and soulful nature.
Please note that this is NOT a yoga retreat (even though you will do yoga in the morning) but a specific pilgrimage for women who hear the call and are profoundly connected to The Magdalene. It's an intimate group of women just for that deep inner and outer journey.
