A Day of Turning Toward the Light

On the threshold of the Summer Solstice, when the sun reaches its fullest expression, you are invited into a day of reflection, creativity, and gentle transformation.

This one-day retreat weaves together the intuitive practice of SoulCollage®, the meditative journey of the labyrinth, and the ancient rhythm of the turning year.

Through guided SoulCollage® card-making, participants will listen inwardly and give form to the voices of their own soul—those parts of us seeking expression, clarity, or renewal. No artistic experience is needed; images become mirrors, and meaning unfolds.

Walking the labyrinth offers a complementary practice of embodied prayer and contemplation. With each step, we release what no longer serves and open to what wishes to grow, honoring the solstice as a moment of illumination, balance, and abundance.

Held in a spacious, supportive atmosphere, this retreat is an invitation to pause, to reconnect with inner wisdom, and to celebrate the Divine Light as well as the light around us and within us.

Cost includes lunch and all supplies.

This retreat also serves as a Qualifying Workshop for anyone wishing to attend a Veriditas Labyrinth Facilitator Training, either online or in person. However, this is not required to attend.   All are welcome.
