Ancestral Calling: A Weekend Retreat of Ancestral Connection & Sacred Remembrance


 

September 12-14th 2025 | Glastonbury Courtyard
 

For the daughters of the beloved departed who were  silenced.

For the ones who still carry the hush of history like tickles in their throat.

For the artists, the witches, the healers and the seekers 

who know that their voice is not just personal…

…it’s ancestral.


 

This is your invitation to enter a sacred ritualistic portal of ancestral devotion, spiritual expression and soft power.

To gather in sisterhood and sacred silence.

To speak for the ones who could not share.

To make beauty from the grief that’s still living in your lineage.

And to rise, as the one your ancestors have been waiting for.

 “The ritual was very powerful because Kate has a beautiful array of skills and tools to hold the space. 

Kate creates a soft space for curious contemplation” - a previous attendee

 


 

Weekend Flow: Ancestral Calling

A 3-day ceremonial immersion into ancestral remembrance, sacred voice and legacy.
 

You’ll be held in a deeply loving container of ritual, reverence and reconnection. You will be guided to meet the healed ones in your bloodline where we will bring healing to those who were shamed, silenced or unseen… and to gift your voice, your hands, your heart as a living offering for them.
 

This is not just healing, this is ancestral reclamation.

 

Day 1: Listening to the unspoken 

 

Arrival, attunement and ancestral remembering
 

Sacred arrival circle & intention-setting

Guided trance: Who in my lineage was not allowed to speak?"

Gentle voice release & breath-based keening

Evening altar ceremony: offerings for the unseen beloveds

 

Day 2: Devotion Through the Hands & Voice
 

Art, sound, grief and ancestral presence

 

Water blessing & partner reflection ritual

Lying-down voice activation & sounding circle

Sacred crafting: ritual object as ancestral offering

Story sharing in silence & presence: “What longs to be spoken?"

Ritual and breathwork: “I speak for the ones who could not."
 

Day 3: Legacy & Living Memory

Integration, emergence and becoming the creators of your lineage’s legacy 
 

Witnessing ritual: “I am the one who is heard.”

Water renewal ceremony: cleansing shame, reclaiming radiance

Legacy altar activation: a vow, a name, a song, a becoming

Closing circle: your voice, returned - for you and for them
 

This is for you if:

  • You’ve felt afraid to be fully seen or heard in your expression, creativity or healing work
  • You carry a quiet heart ache of grief that’s hard to name but deep in your bones, you know it’s not all yours
  • You long for ceremony, sisterhood, softness and something sacred
  • You are here to honour those who came before you and to walk forward with a free voice, clear vision and dedicated devotion
     

“Kate guided me through the process of a water ceremony to cleanse away the old parts of myself I wished to let go of. It was a beautiful ceremony during which I felt held and honoured.” -testimonial from a previous water ceremony attendee.


 

Tickets are now open. Spaces are limited.

Come be witnessed in the radiance of your lineage rising.

All meals during our retreat will be shared together as sacred ritual.

Nourishing, lovingly prepared lunches will be provided on the Saturday & Sunday sourced from a local cafe and caterer. Dinner is included on the Saturday night. Teas, fruit and snacks will be available throughout the weekend. We eat to remember, to honour and to ground our voice in the body.
