About this Retreat
Your Guides
I’ve been walking a magical and initiatory path for over 37 years. What began as personal study became long-term discipline, and eventually teaching, as I traveled internationally to learn from experienced practitioners and to share what I had tested and lived myself.
My relationship with Enochian magic is practical rather than theoretical. I’m not interested in spectacle, trend, or modern reinterpretation for its own sake. I care about what works, what changes perception, and what holds up over time. Everything offered through this site comes from sustained engagement, trial, error, and refinement not from abstraction or borrowed authority.
Enochian.org exists because I wanted a place where this work could be taught clearly, responsibly, and without dilution. If you are here, it’s likely because you’re looking for depth, structure, and a system that takes you seriously. That’s how I approach the work, and that’s how I approach the people who engage it.
This work is for practitioners who are no longer satisfied with surface-level spirituality or symbolic dabbling.
Enochian practice, as presented here, is approached as a functional system; a structured method for working with consciousness, perception, and transformation through discipline, precision, and sustained engagement. It is not designed to comfort, entertain, or reassure. It is designed to work.
The material offered through Enochian.org is grounded in long-term study, practical application, and lived results. Courses, teachings, and practices here are intended for those who are willing to take responsibility for their inner work, move slowly when necessary, and engage systems that demand clarity rather than belief.
If you are looking for shortcuts, aesthetic mysticism, or modern reinterpretations stripped of rigor, this site will likely not be a fit. If you are looking for depth, structure, and a serious relationship with transformation, you’re in the right place.
Details of this retreat
🌞 Midsummer Immersion with Horus — A Solstice Retreat of Fire, Sun & Power
Experience the peak of summer’s vitality in a ceremonial gathering dedicated to the Sun’s fullest expression and the active presence of Horus — Guardian of the Bright Horizon and Avenger of Light.
This is a deeply embodied immersion into seasonal fire, solar potency, and personal mastery.
🌅 Solar Celebration Rituals
Each morning and evening we gather to honor the Sun’s cycles — invoking energetic renewal, inner illumination, and focused intention.
🔥 Fire Element Work
Engage with deep, elemental practice by the sacred fire, aligning your internal flame with seasonal and spiritual forces.
🔱 Lakefront Ceremony
Water and fire meet in ritual offerings and symbolic actions that ground and invigorate personal transformation.
✨ Manifestation Practices
Dedicated time and structure for participants to articulate, honor, and cultivate their chosen intentions.
🫂 Community Feast & Shared Spirituality
Communal meals and circle work serve as a connective ritual — grounding participants in shared field and purpose.
🌲 Setting: Wilderness as Sacred Space
Deep in the wilds of British Columbia, this retreat unfolds amid ancient forest, riverfront, stone, and sky. The land itself becomes a participant in the ceremonial work — grounding practice in real elemental presence, rhythm, and immensity.
Accommodations are intentionally rustic — simple, human-scaled, removed from daily distraction — inviting you to enter into depth rather than comfort.
🧘 Experience Structure
Participants can expect a balanced integration of:
Structured ritual and ceremonial work
Guided spiritual teachings and symbolic interpretation
Dedicated personal time for inner attunement
Group discussions and reflection circles
Nature connection and contemplative practice
Free time for journaling and internal synthesis
This blend ensures that your inner experience is supported, structured, and emboldened by shared rhythm and intentional field-work.
🌟 Step into the Fullness of Summer & Your Own Solar Radiance
The Midsummer Immersion with Horus is not a vacation — it is an intentional turning toward embodied power, clarity, and spiritual maturity.
Here, amidst fire, river, forest, and aligned intention, you confront what is ready to be claimed, released, and fully seen.
Join us at the height of summer’s strength — and return carrying the light of your own inner sun.

Why the Temple of Solomon exists
The Temple of Solomon grew out of my own need for spaces where change could be met consciously, rather than rushed, avoided, or explained away. My life has included profound loss, long periods of transition, and decades of study and practice focused on transformation, ritual structure, and meaning making during times of upheaval.
I have spent years guiding others through moments when life breaks open through retreat work, teaching, and one on one guidance, always with an emphasis on presence, agency, and respect for what people are actually carrying. I do not believe transformation needs to be dramatic to be real, or performative to be powerful.
The retreats and gatherings offered here are shaped by that understanding. I hold these spaces carefully, with clear boundaries and attention to the people in the room. This work is not about escape or self improvement. It is about creating a pause long enough for something honest to shift.

About your teacher
Athena
Founder and Lead Teacher, Temple of Solomon Retreats
Athena brings over 37 years of spiritual practice and teaching experience. Her journey began in a far too haunted house on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia, Canada, leading to early study of Theosophy, then serious study and practice of magic once she came of age.
After a vision quest, and again during an Abramelin working years later, Athena was called to create a retreat space where seekers could connect deeply with nature, divine forces, and their own inner authority.
Known for her no nonsense approach, Athena creates experiences that balance traditional method with practical instruction. Her teaching emphasizes effective technique, clear boundaries, and results that come from correct practice.
