3-Day/2 Ceremony Sacred Plant Retreat near Bend, OR
With Aria Tau and Gabriel Sky
June 13 - 15, 2025
Allow the expansiveness of the Eastern Oregon desert clear your mind as you tune into your spiritual essence in ceremony with sacred plants. Experience beautiful healing visions and profound, life-changing shifts in your consciousness, as we serenade you with sacred hymns that heal and expand.
Our containers feel safe allowing you to fully trust and journey deep knowing that you are held every step of the way.
Our Sacrament:
You will meet the spirit of the crystalline and celestial sister of Ayahuasca, which we call Sacred Acacia, who is known to be more gentle and heart-opening that her earthen and jungly twin. This beautiful plant of Asian-origin has been used for thousands of years to expand consciousness and tap into the spiritual realms.
What to expect:
Through two deeply immersive ceremonies, you’ll be supported in:
- Releasing spiritual, mental and emotional blockages in your energy field
- Receiving Divine Guidance that illuminates your own Divine light within
- Learning to truly love yourself, and open your heart to more love and support
- Trusting and surrendering to the Universe and gaining clarity on your purpose
- Healing ancestral wounds, generational curses and trauma-patterns
This 3-day retreat blends shamanic sound and energy healing, guided yoga and meditation sessions, ceremonial preparation and integration support, and powerful sacred music to help you reconnect with your inner wisdom and embrace transformation that lasts beyond ceremony.
