Return to the Mother
A new moon pilgrimage of devotion, joy and sacred connection
​
Friday 17th – Sunday 19th April 2026
I invite you to join me for a heartfelt weekend pilgrimage in the sacred lands of North Wales, a place that has brought profound blessings and healing into my life. Many of you have said you would love to journey with me next time which is why I've put together some more information about where I'm going and what I'm doing in case you can make it. It would be wonderful if you could join me! This time I'll be going to work with the powerful new moon in Aries energies - which will take place on 17th April - so it's sure to be a special weekend! Although there will be sharing circles and time for reflection and creativity, I'm not hosting a retreat, this is simply an invite to those that want to join me in honouring the Divine Feminine, the Earth Mother, and the joy wanting to be birthed in your life!
​
Friday 17th April
St Winefride’s Well – Holywell (11am arrival, £2 to enter)
St Winefride's Shrine & Well, Holywell, CH8 7PN
Known as the “Lourdes of Wales,” this ancient healing well carries centuries of devotion. While now associated with Christian sainthood, it is well known that sacred wells across Britain hold much older, goddess worshipping lineages.
We will gather for blessing, quiet reflection, prayer, and gratitude to the Divine Mother. There will be opportunity for those who wish to bathe in the well waters. (The shrine opens at 9am, with bathing times for 30 minutes at 11am, 1pm and 3pm).
​
Afterwards, we will share time together at the Church café next door (drinks available — please bring your own lunch).
This day is devoted to:
-
Giving thanks
-
Releasing what we are ready to let go
-
Clarifying the life and world we are choosing to create
We will finish mid-afternoon.
Saturday 18th April
St Dyfnog’s Well – 7am Gathering
Saint Dyfnog's Well, Denbigh LL16 4NL
Early morning, we meet at this deeply peaceful sacred well to sing to the land and waters. Through devotion, song, and prayer, we will offer frequencies of love and joy, honouring both our own bodies and the Earth.
There will be opportunity to bathe in the waters (there are no toilets or changing rooms, so bring a big towel or something to help you get changed!)
Later in the day, you may choose to:
-
Visit a nearby stone circle with me (approx. 40 minutes drive - Moel TÅ· Uchaf, Corwen LL20 7LH), or
-
Rest and explore the town of St Asaph
