Eleven days across the Ancient East and the Wild West of Ireland, a pilgrimage curated to lead you through a holistic experience, tending to mind, body, heart, and soul. Co-hosted by Hannah Saunders and Lizzie Minchener.
If you feel the call back to the lands, back to the elements, back to your ancestry, whether blood or spiritual, this is for you. The Celtic lands are reawakening, moving through a massive blooming, calling back lineage leaders to reawaken and reclaim the wisdom of their lineages, to work with the grief and limitations that have hindered their gifts from blooming.
We will work the wells, the stones, the trees, the wild elements. We will move through ceremony and ritual, held and supported every step of the way. This will be a group of aligned souls.
Hannah & Lizzie, your guides for this pilgrimage
This journey begins in the Ancient East, where the sacred sites of Ireland hold their deepest reverence. We arrive at the Spring Equinox at Loughcrew, an aligned portal where light itself marks the turning of the year, and we journey to Kildare to work with the waters and wisdom of Brighid.
From there we travel west, to the wild edges where Gaelic culture has been most fiercely preserved. Along the wild Atlantic coast we meet the powers of wind and water, and move deeper into the roots of culture through ancestral remembrance in Sligo, restoration days, and walking with the Druids of the Burren.
Lizzie and I have put a great deal of thought and care into the robustness, the depth, and the intention behind this pilgrimage, so it gives you the most out of your time here. This is a deeply stacked experience, built to hold you fully.
This pilgrimage was designed to move as one continuous arc, East into West, but we know not everyone can hold eleven days. Join us for the whole journey, or choose the segment that calls to you.

The mythic center of Ireland, where fire once united the provinces. Here we work with empowerment, igniting, and reclaiming what has been forgotten around worthiness and power.
A passage tomb older than the pyramids, aligned to receive the light. We move through activation and remembrance in one of the most ancient sacred landscapes in the world.
We rise before dawn to greet the Spring Equinox sunrise at Loughcrew, a passage cairn aligned to this exact moment in the year. An awakening of the divine feminine, held in sacred stillness.
Seat of the high kings and one of Ireland's great royal sites. We wander freely here, remembering what it is to stand on ground where sovereignty itself once lived.
We journey to Kildare to work with the waters and wisdom of Brighid, offering at her well and her flame, tending the fire that has never gone out.
We're holding these as high-level categories while the finer details of each day are still being dialed in.

A guided walking exploration through the Latin Quarter and Spanish Arch, and time to work with local artisans, including a traditional Claddagh ring making experience. Musical, artsy, alive.
Through the Irish-speaking villages of the coastal Gaeltacht, working with local artisans and culture keepers to learn the traditional ways of the preserved Irish towns.
