a 5 Day Immersion of

Creativity, Ritual and Self-Expression

27-31th May 2026 | near Berlin

Imagine a place where creativity sits at the center of all we do,

where magick is tangible & accessible to all,

where authentic expression is praised,

and where we honor that which came before us

as wisdom to learn from.

Step with us through 3 Major Portals and meet yourself from different angles

We will step through 3 portals that build on top of each other.

The first is working with the voice & self-expression.

The second is working with the subconscious and magick.

The third portal will be a pure transmission. You will embody and create an image using the experiences from the previous days to become a piece of art. You will become the oracle of creativity and expression. This day will activate your artist and inspire you to create your own unique image and sounds.

After the closing of Portals, you will receive photos and an audio file of your unique transmission as a tangible reminder of your inner creative.

You are the Artist and the Muse. The Oracle and the Message.

and want to learn how to birth an embodied art creation.

You are tired of the hyper-processy spiritual retreats

and ready for some fun that can still be deep and transformative.

You’ve been feeling the call to work with your voice.

You desire to come into deeper reciprocity

with land and the more-than-humans.

You find pleasure swimming in the mystery of life

OR/AND you are afraid of the mystery of life.

Meet our Sanctuary

Landhaus Gottsdorf

A house with ivy growing over the roof and walls, a wooden door, and an outdoor seating area with tables and chairs under a shaded canopy, surrounded by green trees and plants, with a grassy yard and a wooden barrel in the foreground.

Resting gently outside the Berlin vortex, Landhaus Gottsdorf welcomes us with its lush forest and nearby waters. A fire for gathering and a sauna calls out to melt our bones into a slower pace. The house will hold our dreams for our journey ahead and a wandering deer may guide our way. A beautiful indoor space flooded by light will be the birth place of our creations.

Landhaus Gottsdorf will be our foundational pillar, the place that will hold us as we journey. May it ignite our inner creative and inspire us as we commune with the land in reciprocity, giving and receiving.

Interior of a loft-style room with wooden floors and beams, featuring a single bed with green bedding, a red bedside lamp, a white wardrobe, a dresser, a sofa, area rugs, and decorative lighting.
Spacious studio with light wood flooring, brick wall, skylights, and a chandelier, decorated with a potted tree and storage shelves.
