Spring Equinox 2026 Renewal Retreat

We are honored to invite you into this sacred Spring Equinox gathering, held from Friday March 20th – Sunday March 22nd, 2026, as we cross a powerful threshold together. The Equinox marks a moment of perfect balance between light and dark, a cosmic pause where seeds of intention are received with heightened clarity. This weekend unfolds within potent lunar currents and the dynamic Fire Horse energy of the year, carrying themes of courage, momentum, purification, and heart-led action.

Fire Horse medicine calls us forward with truth and vitality, asking us to release what no longer serves and to move in integrity with our deepest values. Gathered in community, we do not rush this energy - we anchor it through prayer, ceremony, and loving presence. Together we cultivate a coherent field where renewal becomes embodied, not imagined.

As a global rainbow family, we gather as students, guardians, bridges, and prayer-carriers. Our ceremonial altar is a space of welcome and reverence, where all people are seen, held, and honored. United in the frequency of love and community, we come together to pray, to listen, and to tend the inner and collective fire. Come as you are - your presence matters, and your prayers are the medicine.

Retreat Includes:

• Two-night Sacred SomoS Ceremony - a profound ceremonial journey for tending our inner landscapes

• Toad Activation Ceremony

• Possible Frog Activation Ceremony (offered if the prayer and collective field clearly dictate)

• Healthy, nourishing meals prepared with reverence for the Earth

• Shared or private on-site accommodations (first come, first serve)
