About this Retreat
Details of this retreat
The Original Brujas are Awakening, and we’re gathering to Invoke the Witch Within.
We’re calling the women who’ve always known they were powerful and aren’t touching half of what they’re capable of.
The world taught you not to trust your intuition. It disconnected you from your body and your emotions. And made the unseen world and the earth your enemy.
But women like you are remembering the sacred arts of intuition, healing, and elemental magic that live within every woman’s body.
We’re gathering to learn how to source our power from fire, water, earth, land and spirit to reclaim what was once forbidden: our freedom to feel, to create, to know, and to wield our power without fear.
This retreat is like Hogwarts, but if two bad-ass Latinas with Afro-Caribbean folk magic backgrounds taught it.
Included in Retreat
7 days/6 nights of accommodations at Kawoq Forest Retreat Center
Nourishing vegetarian meals + snacks daily

6 immersive days of sacred feminine arts teachings, Afro-Caribbean folk magic workshops, and ceremonies.
Space to integrate and visit local Guatemalan towns
Over this 7 day initiation we'll invoke the 4 archetypes of La Bruja (the witch) inside you. Each archetype is anchored in a form of elemental magic. Each one shows you how to source your power from your body, your ancestors, the earth, and the unseen.
Through ancestral veneration and healing, elemental ritual, herbal alchemy, and high-frequency initiation, this retreat opens the gates to the four elemental archetypes of the witch : Earth, Water, Fire, and Air, guiding each woman to source her power from within and to wield it to create whatever she wants.
If you ever wanted to learn how to use magic to change your entire life. This is the retreat you've been praying for.
Your Hosts
Led by Clarissa, the Dark Alchemical Priestess, who walks with the medicine of shadow and erotic alchemy -AND - Marcela, La Espiritista, who channels ancestral wisdom and guides women through the unseen realms, together we weave a field of transformation that touches every layer of the self.
Our mission is to remember what the world tried to erase: that the feminine is creation itself. That power is not dominance; it is devotion. And that every woman carries the blood memory of magic in her bones.
Here, we rise together, as women, as sisters, as curanderas, medicine women, as witches, as healers, as priestesses, restoring the balance between the sacred and the wild, between earth and spirit, between what was hidden and what is ready to be born.
We need you. You are La Mujer Bruja!
