Practises, Ceremonies and Rites of Remembrance for the Priestess in Training
"To remember through Water is to be re-woven into the Original Communion."
Join Aletheia Sophia for a soulfully immersive 7 day retreat, a flowing pilgrimage into the sacred intelligence of Water — as Element, Oracle, Healer, and Keeper of Forgotten Rites. This is not simply a course in water lore. It is a re-initiation into the Feminine Mystery — through your body, through the waters of the Earth, and through the voice of the living Spring that remembers you.
