Ritual of Presence: Virgo New Moon Yoga & Astrology Retreat
With Kristi Lyons and Gabrielle Perez
September 10 - 13, 2026
Explore ancient tradition and cosmic wisdom to transform mindless habit into sacred presence during this four-day overnight retreat at Breitenbush Hotsprings. We will tap into the grounding energy of the Virgo New Moon and explore the art of Sacred Ritual as a pathway to clarity and self-devotion. This retreat integrates the wisdom of Astrology through daily Transit Talks with thoughtful movement practices—ranging from Meditative Slow Flow and Strong Alignment to Myofascial Release and Restorative yoga. Nestled within the healing waters of the hot springs, you will be guided to notice the patterns of perfectionism and control that distance you from the flow of the current moment. Through intentional yogic practices, self-massage, breathwork, mindfulness meditation, silent reflection, and forest bathing, we refine the rhythm of daily living.
Each participant will receive a 30-minute personalized astrology reading* based on their unique birth chart. Participants will depart with a refreshed spirit and a sweet Ritual Kit designed to sustain these new practices through the coming lunation.
*(Readings will occur before, during or after the retreat depending on each person’s availability. Participants will be asked to send their birthchart info to Gabrielle at: gabriellegperez5@gmail.com once they have completed their registration.) Once registration is complete students will be emailed a code and a link to to schedule their personal reading.
