VISION QUEST: THE WILDERNESS VIGIL
Spring 8 Day Quest VIC (Oct 2025): FULL
Autumn 8 Day Quest VIC (April - May 2026): OPEN
The Wilderness Vigil, also known as the Vision Quest, is one of the most powerful and ancient initiatory passage rites we still have access to.
Our typical program is an 8 day wilderness gathering during which participants spend 4 days and 4 nights in strict solitude out in the wild, fasting from food, technology, physical interaction, and the many comforts (and distractions) of modern living.
For those who can’t commit to our longer program, we also a offer shorter 5 day Wilderness Vigils during which you’ll spend 2 days and 2 nights, nestled in the wild cocoon of nature.
Participant numbers are kept at 10-12 max, depending on location.

Typically offered as a 4-5 day group program, The Pilgrimage presents a potent opportunity to deepen your soul path, awaken the spiritual gnosis within you, and experience the wisdom of the cactus in wild mountain locations.
Participant numbers are kept at 10-12 max, depending on location.

PRIVATE SESSIONS & CEREMONIES
SWEAT LODGE PRAYER & PURIFICATION
Upon Request: ENQUIRE WITHIN
Purification via ritual sweating is an ancient initiatory process that can be found cross-culturally across our earth. The sweat lodge is a place for healing, cleansing, meditation, prayer, connection and renewal.
While sweat lodge is sometimes offered within our group gathering processes, it can also serve as a stand alone private group ceremonial process, involving the preparation for parenthood, the birth of a child, birthday celebrations, solstice and equinox honourings, marriage, divine union, a change in life path, or to prepare for any other kind of initiatory event.
We travel out to a suitable location of your choosing, or organize a suitable wilderness location to ceremonially gather.
VISION QUEST: THE WILDERNESS VIGIL
Upon Request: ENQUIRE WITHIN
While there are three main stages of an initiatory passage rite (separation, crossing the threshold, the return), it’s equally important to be witnessed and supported by community throughout your process.
Whether small private groups, or 1:1 processes, we can tailor the ceremonial initiatory arc to account for adequate ritual support in alignment to your personal intentions.
Typically conducted in the mountains of VIC.

PLANT WISDOM CEREMONIAL MEDITATIONS
Upon Request: ENQUIRE WITHIN
For those looking to deepen their experiential awareness of the shamanic arts for healing and higher consciousness, the wisdom of the cactus offers a powerful invitation to do so. Whether small private groups, or 1:1 sessions, the duration of these meditations are a lengthy all day (or all night) affair.
A single day-time ceremony would typically involve arrival and set-up the evening before, a full day of meditation, and departure the following morning.
A full night-time ceremony would typically involve arrival and set-up during the day, a full night of meditation, and departure the following day.
These ceremonies can be conducted at an appropriate location of your choosing, or a designated wilderness location at our discretion, with the orchestration and specific ceremonial details tailored to your personal intentions.
