I’m gently landing and integrating from the amazing experience of ceremonial priestessing at The Goddess Conference. Sharing a few beautiful memories here in the comments, and I wanted you all to let you all know that I am continuing the beautiful vibe of the conference’s theme of ‘Goddess of Healing’ with my first weekend retreat offering since breaking my arm. It’s an offering that I have been wanting to create since 2020, since Morgan Le Fay was such a key part of the story of us finding our beautiful house. (I will post the link to the story of our house in the comments).

Introducing: ‘In The House of Morgan Le Fay: A women’s healing retreat’ over Samhain / Halloween this year. You can apply the discount code on checkout SAMHAIN10 for aa early bird 10% discount until 15th September.

These tickets are selling like hot cakes so please jump in soon to ensure to be part of this! I can’t wait to share this with you ❤️❤️❤️

The season of Samhain / Halloween / Calan Gaeaf is the time when our ancestors would gather to mark the completion of the old year, and welcoming of the new. It’s a time when the veils are thin between the worlds of the living and that of the ancestors and it is a time which is rich in ancestral s...

Well here’s a weird thing… I’ve been trying to delete an old FB page of mine I used to use for pilgrimages, events and things…. But I just have not been able to. And suddenly lately people have been following it like crazy! So I’m going to go with the flow and start using it again! Come on over to The Violet Rose for news about my events, retreats and pilgrimages 💜

Welcome to all my new followers here at The Violet Rose 💜

Let me introduce myself 💜
My name is Donna. I’m a Yoga teacher and pagan priestess, and together with my partner have spent the last 3 years restoring a beautiful Victorian Gothic rectory in the Brecon Beacons (Bannau Brycheiniog) National Park in Wales as a beautiful retreat venue.

I’m really passionate about feminine transformation and empowerment. Here’s me dancing with a healing broken wrist (sustained during a ladder incident in our house renovation!) at the temple palace of Knossos in Crete last month, calling in wishes for my own healing and transformation.

I’d love to know more about you all. Please do introduce yourselves!
💜 Donna

I feel like I have been painting these doors forever - my critical eye can still see a few places I’m not 100% happy with, but they **are** looking beautiful! Thank you to English Period doors for their beautiful reclaimed and restored doors ❤️

It has been a magical week ❤️ 💫
I returned from my ceremonial Cacaoista training last weekend and we had the last (Dhumavati the Crone) practice in my Ten Weeks of Self Care practice. On Tuesday was in Glastonbury for a meeting with the ceremonialists team for The Goddess Conference, creating some of the beautiful ceremonies for this summer’s conference. Please check out this year’s details here:
https://goddessconference.com/

Then on Thursday I was back in Glastonbury for the closing ceremony of the Magdalene Myrrhophore Mysteries course I’ve been leading with some truly amazing and humbling women. We have been in a deep journey with sacred oils. If you’d like to join the second intake of this course, please check out the details here or message for more info:

Then on Friday a meeting with my lovely friend Emma Rose Knight to refine the details of our ‘In the Path of the Magdalene’ pilgrimage in southern France in September. Again, full details on my website or message for more details:

Home yesterday from Cacaoista (ceremonial cacao) training with the very amazing Rebekah Shaman and nose is back to the grindstone with painting the reclaimed doors we had fitted while I was away. Stained glass ones are between the entrance hall and the corridor, solid painted one is on the old servants’ kitchen and currently unpainted one is on Jem’s man cave / music room ❤️

I’m so excited to announce this project that Emma Rose Knight and myself planted a seed for some two years ago, and it is now coming to fruition in September 2024. On this beautiful pilgrimage in southern France we will be following the footsteps of Mary Magdalene in Camargue, Provence and Occitania, with sacred site visits, daily sharing circles, ceremony and creative projects. There are just 10 places to ensure that we can give you an intimate and nurturing experience (and three of those places have sold today, so please contact us if you would like one, to avoid disappointment!) So excited to share this delicious experience with you ❤️

With huge love,
Donna and Em ❤️🌹
