CRONE GATHERING RETREAT


  • Spirit Canoe Lodge Warrensville, NC 28693 USA (map)

Crone Gathering January 14-16: As we age the elders say that “our beauty steals inward”. Women 54+ are welcome. Our work is to dream the success of future generations and re-establish the importance and respect of the elders within our cultures. The magic we do as grandmothers is deeply needed within our communities. We will plan and plot within our wise cauldrons over the weekend through ceremony and brainstorming.
Our weekend opens Friday evening with a one hour zoom introduction from Janneke Tateshina, an elder leader from the Sweet Medicine SD Path. She will speak about the crone time and how juicy our elder years can be, especially how we can mentor within our circles of influence and give back to the collective. Afterwards we will go into a women's dreaming lodge (if desired). The rest of the weekend will be spent brainstorming our mission as a crone clan and how we will support one another and make an impact within our communities.

Cost: 195$ Includes 2 night stay. There is a sliding scale available so that no crone feels this is out of her reach! We need to send a donation to Janneke for her presentation and cover gifts for Kelly and the fire crew for the purification lodge. RSVP to Kelly at kelly@spiritcanoelodge.org.
