Week Long Workshops are designed for those full-time retreatants who would like to interact with one workshop leader for the entire week. Depending on how the class is designed, it may contain multiple topics or a single topic that is related to the workshop title. The workshop leader remains the same with each session. Please see the Single Sessions if you are interested in a sampling of workshops or only attending for a day or two. You can sign up for one A.M. Week Long Workshop OR four A.M. Single Sessions.

#1 Between the Worlds: A Journey of Power

Michael Northrop Three Rivers, MI

Participants will learn to use the method of shamanic journey to travel into non-ordinary realities.  The participants will meet spirit allies to help them on their journeys, learn methods of protection, and acquire techniques to make sure that they are always able to return grounded to ordinary reality.  The class will help to discover how to work with ancestors, explore the concepts of shape shifting, and finding techniques to inhabit their full power.

#2 An Exploration into Kabbalah Energy Manipulation

Stirling Graham Plainwell, MI

This workshop is an introduction to the energies prevalent with Kabbalah practices.  We will include meditations for the exploration of the four worlds of Ahssiah, Yetzirah, Briyah, and Atzilot.  We will connect with the planetary energies associated with each sephirot (energy Centers), as well as the angelic forms in Briyah.  There will be exercises for balancing out all three triads and Malkuth, and manipulating energies through each of the three pillars (severity, mercy, and the middle).

#3 Runes as a Divinational Tool for Enlightenment

Rev. Laura MacLachlan Bay City, MI

The Viking Runes we are familiar with today describe an inward journey showing us the way to our own state of enlightenment/self-discovery for this lifetime.  In this workshop we will become familiar with each step of the way; including our life blueprint in the form of our Personal Destiny Profile.  Embedded in the runic journey are the steps we follow for each major life lesson we scripted for ourselves called a Cycle of Initiation.  Bring a set of Runes to class.

#4 Ancent Egyptian Secrets of Soul Transformation

Rev. Normandi Ellis Frankfort, KY

A study of numerology, star lore, astrology, and Egyptian mysteries offers us a view of the seasonal opening of the year through the power of Isis as the star goddess, Sothis, linked to Sirius. It is here we explore ascension and resurrection through the powers of Isis.
