Walking with the Ancestors | Celebrating the rebirth of spring
Sacred Sites, Nature Connection, Walking, Archaeology, Shamanism, Ancestral Healing
Ireland has an iconic place in the worlds psyche, hearkening us back to an ancient spiritual connection with our own wild Soul and Nature. Those who visit Ireland feel embraced by a feeling of finally coming home, a soul retrieval across space and time. The wide open places of windswept beauty, the rugged wild shorelines, spectacular ancient sites, the green expanse of endless fields of grass, Ireland holds the keys to unlocking the door to an ancient memory that awakens a longing to be Interconnected with Nature and remember our Ancestral belonging. This is not an average tour of beautiful places, but one that takes you deeper into the mysteries of Ireland's ancient past and present; a pilgrimage to your own Ancient Remembrance.
The energy of Ireland is transformational. There is a reason why this land has more Sacred Sites than anywhere in the world! For thousands of years, Ireland was a renowned place of pilgrimage where people experienced Divine Communion with Nature and its Energy and Sacred Places of Transcendence. Not only is it a place of Awe-Inspiring Magical Beauty, the ancient Sacred Sites also hold great power. They were created to honor the Spirit World and also served as Portals to anchor Divine Energy and Knowledge in the earthly realm, "As Above, So Below". The indigenous Celtic and proto-Celtic tribes practiced an earth based spirituality very similar to the Native Americans. We will explore and experience this first hand.
The wild elements are still alive with a profound numinous energy that can Awaken the Spirit. Experience a Life Changing Journey that will fill your soul with awe and steep you in connection to your own Divine Essence. Ireland is guaranteed to transform you, either in the most subtle or profound ways!

We will begin our tour on Friday morning. For those who arrive in Galway City prior we will have an informal meet and greet Thursday eve. Friday morning you will be picked up at your hotels and we will drive along the Wild Atlantic Way through the wild west of Connemara to the beautiful jewel that is Sligo. For two nights we will stay in a stately manor house and visit Knocknarae, the magnificent queen Maeve's cairn and other ancient sites which are the oldest in Ireland. We will journey back south to the Burren for two nights where there are scores of sites including Poulnabrone and the Cliffs of Moher. The burren in County Clare is the most unique and spiritual landscape in Ireland. We travel from there to the hill of Uisneach, the sacred center of Ireland and ancient royal ceremonial site. Then for the last three nights we go on to the ancient royal sacred sites of Hill of Tara, Newgrange in Meath and Slieve na Calliagh. After visiting the National Archaeology Museum on Friday morning I will drop guests back in Dublin by 1pm. Lodging will be in a stately manor house, a charming seaside B&B and cozy countryside retreat center. We will make time to gather each evening to share about our experiences and receive the benefits of healing through friendship and connection. All guests are encouraged to take my online Intro to Shamanism course in the spring where we will dive deeper into the Celtic Shamanic teachings, the Irish Spirit Wheel and discover your personal connection to the elements, spirit guides and ancestors. When time allows on the tour we will practice meditation, shamanic journeying and ceremonial connection to the sacred sites. There will also be plenty of delicious organic wholesome meals, music and laughter along the way.
