In the still waters there lies a sacred path. A path of vision, power and healing. It is a place of finding truth within the silence. A deep knowing of who you are....your essence.
Removed from the distractions of modern daily life, guided by your own true nature, and the wild nature around you, dive into the still waters of your soul and find your authentic voice, the one that longs to be heard.
The demands of daily life give us no time to pause, reflect and listen to the voice of our hearts. The Vision Quest is a nature-based rite of passage that has been used in some form since the dawn of man in the search for inspiration.
To open the soul to the universal language of nature, our Quest relies on ancient traditions updated to fit our modern world. This vision quest is based on the simple premise that prayer and spiritual connection to nature can open our hearts and reveal answers to the deepest mysteries of life.
"As if three days of solo time in the woods
weren't already a huge gift in a life filled with
busy-ness and over-stimulation, the sacred and loving
support of Rose, Melissa, and Petros added immeasurable
strength and depth to my time in the Deep. My Vision
Quest journeys continue to resonate in my life with
wise guidance, deeper awareness of the support of
Spirit, and the 'unexpected gift' of continued journeys
with my fellow Questors."
Becky Carroll, PhD, Washington, DC
Our Quest is held in two locations this year for six days each: among the rolling hills of Gore, Virginia at The
Land Celebration, in 43 acres of beauty; and up north in New York at Rune Hill -- a 200 acre retreat center known for its powerful environs. We begin our time together with an ancient purification
ceremony called The Inipi Ceremony or the Sweat Lodge. Everyone
will be asked to bring food to share as part of their give-away
and a way to show their gratitude for the opportunity to be on
the land and participate in this spiritual journey. Afterwards,
there will be time to rest and settle in for the night. The rest
of our time together will be in deep inner work…going into
the Dreamtime…a sacred space known as the Vision Quest.
