Wild Woman Celebrating Samhain

Join us for a truly magical Samhain event, a time to honour the turning of the Wheel of the Year, reconnect with the earth, and tap into the strength and stillness within. Samhain marks the end of the harvest and the beginning of the darker half of the year a sacred pause before winter’s descent.

This season invites us to reflect, release, and root deeper into ourselves and the land. Set in a peaceful private woodland, this women’s in nature gathering offers a nourishing and creative space to honour the shifting season together with nature, with intention, and in sisterhood.

What to Expect:

Forest Bathing: Immerse yourself in the healing energies of the forest. We'll take a gentle, mindful walk through the woods, allowing the sights, sounds, and smells of nature to soothe our minds and ground our bodies.

Community Fire Circle: Gather around the warmth of the fire, where we'll share reflections, intentions, and wisdom. The fire serves as a sacred space for transformation and connection, helping us to release what no longer serves and welcome new energy into our lives.

Women's Circle: In this sacred space, we will connect deeply with one another, sharing our thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This is a time to be heard, to support each other, and to honour the divine feminine within us all.

Journaling: Reflect on your journey during this season of change. I will offer you prompts to explore your journey during this season of change.

Plant Connection Experiences

Guided Sensory Tea Ritual: Plant Ally: Rosehip – Rosehips nourish the heart and body through winter. Experience their comfort and strength through tea, and creative practices.

Creative Expression: Express yourself with natural plant-based inks made from rosehips. Create freely with the textures and tones of the season while discovering how mordants and modifiers shift colour.

Botanical Rituals

This event is intentionally kept small, with spaces limited to 12 women, to ensure that we can fully honour each attendee and create a safe, sacred space for deep connection.

Spaces are limited—reserve your spot now to be part of this transformative experience.

I look forward to celebrating Samhain with you in circle
