HONOUR. RELEASE. CONNECT.
Here, we bow to our humanness
even as we rise into our divinity.
Emergence creates a space
where both are honoured, held,
and woven together.
Nestled in the Welbedacht Nature Reserve, held by the energy of the Tulbagh mountains, you are invited to take a pause before December at The Blue Butterfly.
This is a weekend to carve space for ALL of you—to allow, to witness, to feel the fullness of our human selves before crossing the threshold into a new nine-year cycle. As the first stirrings of the new year move through November, we are invited to unhook from old stories, to let go of our long-held baggage and open to what the soul longs to ignite in 2026—the beginning of the next great turning.
Join us November 7 - 9 for a weekend retreat to nourish and ignite.
We’ve created this weekend to hold ourselves through this transition, to sit in community, to be witnessed, to open into deeper love, to laugh, to cry or rage.
You’ll be guided at times, but this is also a space to witness yourself, to witness others, and to hold both yourself and others deeply. There is pure magic in that.
May we allow more; more shadow and more joy.
May we express deeper, truer, with courage.
May we dance more, laugh, love and cry with ease.
May we open our hearts to encompass all of ourselves,
And gently shed what keeps us from opening more and more.
