MAGDALENA INITIATIONS
Magdalena is a six day journey into the heart of the feminine mysteries through the initiations of LIFE and the ancient rituals that open the doors to this remembering.
Through the doorway of a surrendered heart we enter the temple of Magdalena, in devotion to all life, as love.
Together We will create a sacred and potent temple life with daily rituals, practices, and earth magic.
We will live and dance between the veils.
Over the six days we will explore some the following teachings;
~ The mysteries of life, death and blood.
~ The psychic arts - divination,
dreaming and intuition.
~ Sacred ritual and temple arts.
~ Erotic wisdom, sexual activation and magnetism.
~ Living in alignment with the elements and deepening connections with the devic kingdoms.
~ Working with archetypal magic, stepping through and beyond the veils.
~ Embodiment medicine; harnessing life force, listening to the voice of the body, the alchemy of sensuality and pleasure.
~ The heart as a magical tool, sacred heart wisdom.
~ The feminine shadow and shamanic projection.
~ Masculine/ Feminine integration as Priestess.

Venue
For those looking for a peaceful haven, Yenice Vadi is located within a quiet Turkish valley, providing the perfect escape offering superb accommodation nestled amongst trees and mountains with easy access to the coast.
The valley is surrounded by an abundance of trees including pine, almond, olives and fruit trees, all of which attract a wonderful range of wildlife including birds, boars, squirrels, hares, tortoises and goats.
Hiding away in the valley gives everyone a wonderful opportunity to experience nature at its best. Waking up to the sound of bird song, peaceful evenings on the verandas and exploring the amazing countryside whether on foot or by car provide the perfect sanctuary.
The concept of Yenice Vadi grew from a love of traditional Turkish village life and the desire to sustain our natural environment.
Yenice Vadi has come to reality in a secluded valley, surrounded by tree-covered mountains, with accommodation built using traditional local materials, to include a treehouse, stone cottages, and a log cabin, each in plenty of space, well-furnished and fully equipped.

Guide
My week of journeying with Magdalena was one of deep surrender and catharsis for the control of my feminine. The shackles by which I keep myself ‘correct’ are slowly disintegrating.
I danced, I moved and prayed at the altar of life and love itself. I felt it all, leaning into the coven where nothing less than truth and love is held. I grieved the parts of me I have cast out for so long and held hands with the soul I am proud to house.

Magdalena For Male Bodies
The principle of Magdalena lives inside all bodies and we are delighted to finally offer this work to male bodies. The feminine mysteries do not belong to women but to life itself and we believe that they should be accessible to all people.
Magdalena for Male Bodies is a five day journey into the heart of the feminine mysteries through the initiations of LIFE and the ancient rituals that open the doors to this remembering.
Through the doorway of a surrendered heart we enter the temple of Magdalena, in devotion to all life, as love.
Together We will create a sacred and potent temple life with daily rituals, practices, and earth magic.
Over the five days we will explore some the following teachings
~ The mysteries of life, death and renewal
~ The psychic arts - divination, oracular magic
~ Living in alignment with the elements and deepening connections with the devic kingdoms.
~ Working with archetypal magic, stepping through and beyond the veils.
~ The heart as a magical tool, sacred heart wisdom.
~ Connecting to the etheric womb and its deep receptivity to life
~ Sacred embodiment of the sensuous feminine, eros and sensuality
~ cycling with the moon, awakening the spiral path
~ Deepening connection with the inner priestess and mystic
~ Opening to the maiden, mother, temptress and crone
“Magdalena was the most beautiful, heart-opening and connective journey of my entire life. 6 days later, I feel my heart has been cracked open and all this light is shining through and I am so proud to say that I did break through my limitations and showed myself the amount of LIFE living within my shadows, that is ready to be seen..”
