Rooted in Love Santa Barbara

Join us in Santa Barbara from November 7–9, 2025, for Rooted In Love, a sacred weekend of planting, nourishing, and remembering. Beneath the watchful glow of a waning Virgo-to-Libra moon, we gather to tend the seeds of soul connection, to water the gardens of our becoming, and to cross the rainbow bridge between realms heart to heart, Earth to cosmos.

This retreat is an invitation to weave love through ritual, to ground dreams in the fertile soil of presence, and to honor the unseen golden threads that link us across timelines. Let this be a time of soft landings and expansive openings. A time to root, to bloom, and to walk together in remembrance of the beauty we carry and the future we are here to birth. This ceremony will be held in a sacred sanctuary space surrounded by nature, featuring a water hole and sweeping views of the ocean. Located in gorgeous Santa Barbara.

Lead Facilitator:

Maya Martinez, founder of Somos Sanctuary, was raised in both Colombia and New York City, and has been on a life-long journey studying with indigenous teachers from Colombia, Mexico, the United States, and Brazil, where she was given the name Sakakatwa ‘Rainbow,’ by her family of the Fulniô Tribe. As a dedicated student, she continuously deepens her studies with the sacraments, and has learned many traditional ceremonial practices that help raise the vibration of the planet. It is with great honor, permission, and care, that she shares the weavings of this knowledge with those who are ready to answer the call and receive the wisdom and downloads that come.
