Testimonials
“It was not an easy decision for me to dip into my savings to finance this trip, which is why my immediate reaction to the initial email invitation was a 'no.' But once I was inspired to go, any doubts were wiped away. That said, I cannot believe how much time and effort went into the preparation of this trip by YOU, Deonesea. The organization was superb, and looking at everything that was included, I think the price was a bargain.
I could not believe the power of the Priestesses who participated, although knowing you and your Priestess power, I should not have been surprised. You would not have chosen anything less.
I loved every woman in our 'pod'! Like someone else said, it was great to have a span of generations. Each person contributed to the whole in their own unique way. It felt like our own little family.”

PAST RETREATS
PILGRIMAGE 2025
RESTORE YOUR SACRED HEART ON THE ANCIENT ISLE OF AVALON. STONE CIRCLES, HOLY WELLS, & GODDESS RITES
GLASTONBURY, ENGLAND | JULY 22ND-AUGUST 4TH, 2025
13 days of ancient stone circles, holy wells, & sacred rituals in the breathtaking beauty of the lands of Avalon. We spent days exploring the ancient stone circles of Stonehenge, Avebury, and Stanton Drew and their surrounding areas. With knowledgeable guides and ceremonialists leading the way, we held rituals at each of the stone circles filling ourselves with the nectar of the lands on which they stand. We bathed in and drank from holy wells, and walked through the veils of time touching the mysteries of this sacred place like so many who've walked there before.
We sat before the Lady of Avalon at the Glastonbury Goddess Temple where we communed with her in meditation and prayer, and then we immersed ourselves in the luscious beauty of the Lover Goddess as she was felt and expressed through the Glastonbury Goddess Conference... a six day sensuous feast of rituals and celebrations to the Goddess of Love.
PILGRIMAGE 2024
WALK THE PATH OF POWERFUL WOMAN THROUGH 10 DAYS IN GREECE EXPLORING THE ANCIENT CITY OF ATHENS, AND THE STUNNING BEAUTY OF CRETE AND THE MEDITERRANEAN.
GREECE | OCTOBER 14TH-24TH, 2024
"Pilgrimage" is defined as a journey to a holy place, which can lead to a personal transformation, after which the pilgrim returns to their daily life transformed.
In these times of tremendous societal and social change on our planet, we need women standing in their true power now more than ever. This kind of personal empowerment journey is exactly what you'll experience through this destination retreat.
When powerful women of ancient times visited holy places for prayer and divination, they engaged in very specific rituals to prepare themselves to receive messages and direction - both for themselves personally and for their loved ones or community. They began at the sacred springs to cleanse and anoint themselves, then fed themselves from the sacred plants of the land, before making their way to the temples or power spots to commune with the divine.
CROATIA RETREAT 2023
REJUVENATE YOURSELF IN 10 RESTFUL DAYS, IMMERSED IN THE STUNNING BEAUTY OF CROATIA AND THE MEDITERRANEAN.
CROATIA | OCTOBER 9TH-19TH, 2023
To truly rejuvenate ourselves, we have to know when it's time to take a break... like, the kind of fly to a beautiful destination - unpack your bags and stay for awhile - revel in sun and sea and beauty - kind of break. Choose something different, find something to marvel at, give ourselves the gift of time spent in being-ness, removed from doing-ness.
From ancient ruins to mystical sites, during this retreat we'll explore hidden gems, revel in delicious food, immerse in the beauty of another part of the world, and embrace transformative experiences... all at a pace that creates spaciousness and lots of time for simply being. Travel at its finest!
GLASTONBURY GODDESS CONFERENCE
GLASTONBURY, ENGLAND | JULY 30TH - AUGUST 6TH, 2023
This particular offering of time together will be especially potent as it will be held on the lands of Avalon... a place of deep magic
long-held by the Priestesses of that land.
Known to be the heart chakra of the planet, Glastonbury (Avalon), holds by its very nature all of the codes of what it is to be held in the deep heart of the Mother. That embrace will take us deep into our own inner place of refuge and sanctuary, where we will drink our fill from the deep well… both figuratively from our internal landscape, and literally from the external landscape of Chalice Well.
“Reality doesn't impress me. I only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way or another. No more walls.”
