Fully Own Your Magic
Lead From Your Sovereign Heart
A private one-to-one retreat in Southern France for people helpers, earth keepers and visionary leaders to rise from the ashes and step fully into their next chapter.
Southern France, Upper Aude Valley
Flexible Dates: May through October
You’ve been on an epic journey of self-discovery…
You know you’re spiritual and feel deeply connected to the land. And yet… you sense there is more of you waiting to emerge. More clarity. More courage. More truth.
You feel that a new chapter of your life is ready to be born — but without the right space to pause, reconnect, and listen deeply, it can be difficult to fully embody this next phase of who you are becoming. Without that space, it’s easy to continue sensing your potential without fully stepping into it.
The alignment and clarity you seek can be found through deep connection with yourself, with the cycles of the earth, and remembering the truth of why you came.
Something profound awakens when we journey inward in sacred landscapes.
The ancient waters and mountains of Southern France hold frequencies that restore your true resonance, gently calling home your innate gifts and soul purpose.
This magical 5-day private retreat includes a series of alchemical rose rituals at natural temples, a crowning ceremony, and an embodied soul-alchemy photo session.
A sacred celebration of self — to claim your crown as a Rose Priestess and Queen of your life.
The Sovereign Rose Retreat is a powerful threshold moment — a sacred return to your truth and the beginning of a new chapter of embodied leadership.
The Sacred Geography of Transformation
Imagine...
…waking up in a beautiful valley in the foothills of the French Pyrenees, where lush forest cradles crystalline rivers, hidden caves, and majestic waterfalls.
You step out into the warm sunshine and breathe the rich mountain air. As your bare feet kiss the earth, sweet birdsong fills you with deep peace.
You pause for a moment, hardly believing you are finally here.
The Upper Aude Valley has called spiritual seekers for millennia, its natural cathedrals offering powerful spaces for reflection and renewal.
Ancient Cathar history whispers through warm thermal waters, while cool, intimate caves hold echoes of the Magdalene.
Here, surrounded by sacred landscape, your body begins to remember a deeper truth — a return to wholeness, connection, and sacred inner union.
During the retreat we journey to several of these sacred natural temples for ceremony, reflection, and renewal.
Expand the Aperture of Your Awareness
The Sovereign Rose Retreat is a spiritual accelerator ∞ awakening the leadership ready to emerge through you
Ready to take the first step towards experiencing your dream retreat?
If you feel your body tingling, if there’s a call of curiosity or a sense of remembering, I invite you to respond. Your body knows what the mind cannot yet see. This is a call to step into your feminine knowing and trust…
Due to the private nature of this retreat, only a limited number of journeys are offered each season between May and October.
Early booking is recommended to secure your preferred dates.
What makes this retreat different?
Unlike group retreats where energy disperses among many participants, this experience focuses everything — the sacred land, ancient wisdom, and my full presence — entirely on your personal transformation.
This five-day private retreat is a rite of passage that sits within a three-month container, with support before and after your journey to ensure the transformation is deeply integrated.
This journey acts as a spiritual accelerator, initiating deeper union between body and soul while awakening the leadership ready to emerge through you.
This is a rare opportunity for an intimate reclamation of self — a space where every part of who you are is witnessed and celebrated.
You will return home anchored in your true signature frequency, with clarity, confidence, and the courage to fully own your magic and bring your gifts to the world.
sit at the altar of your own heart
For five magical days, you will be held, witnessed, and guided through a series of nature-based rituals and sacred experiences designed to help you embody your truth.
Each moment of the journey is crafted to crystallise your essence and bring soul and body into alignment, so you can lead your life with clarity, confidence, and deep inner authority.
Working with the rose, the lens, and the crown, every ritual becomes an alchemical experience of transformation.
You will both feel and see this shift reflected back to you through a professional soul-alchemy photo session and the powerful video affirmations we co-create together.
This retreat is designed to...
Transform how you experience yourself by bringing your physical body and divine soul into deeper union within the sovereignty of your heart.
Through nature-based rituals, soul-alchemy photography, and communion with powerful landscapes, you will reconnect with your true frequency and rediscover the essence of who you came here to be.
Sacred waters, ancient temples, and the stillness of the land create the space to release what no longer serves your path and welcome a new way of seeing, being, and leading your life.
Away from the noise of everyday life, in a paradise valley in the foothills of the Pyrenees, you will reconnect with the forgotten parts of your essence in a land steeped in the mysteries of Mary Magdalene, the Cathars, and ancient dragon lines.
Here, your heart remembers its deepest desires — and the path to manifest them through the sacred inner marriage of your divine and human self.

Sacred Thermal Waters
The warm thermal springs and unique salt river become powerful vessels for your transformation.
These sacred waters hold ancient memory and work gently at a cellular level, creating space for fresh vision, renewed clarity, and deeper alignment with your highest path.
You’ll be guided by me, Samjhana Moon, a guardian of these lands and waters.
Together we journey to natural temples and sacred sites where the veils between worlds grow thin, allowing deeper communion with your higher guidance.
This one-to-one journey creates the alchemical conditions for a profound rebirth — stepping fully into the sovereignty of your life.
Return home to your sacred body.
Become a magnet for miracles.
Alchemical Rose Rituals
At the heart of this retreat lies a quadrinity of Rose ceremonies at natural temples and sacred springs. These are ancient feminine initiation rites adapted for modern awakening.
This transformation is not only spiritual; it is deeply embodied. Through ritual, presence, and communion with the elements, your body begins to remember its signature frequency and inner magnetism.
A sensory awakening unfolds — grounding you in your heart, reconnecting you with your true potential, and opening you to receive the abundant life you came here to lead.
If you feel a vision stirring for your future self, I would love to hear it.

Being Seen - Soul Alchemy Photography
Your Soul Alchemy Photo Session arrives at the perfect moment in your retreat — after three days of ceremony, transformation, and deep inner reconnection, when you’re shining as bright as the sun.
This becomes a joyful day of celebration where you are seen in your power, beauty, and radiance, creating images that become living totems of your higher self.
And yes… it will be fun. I promise.
Somatic practices are gently woven into the session to support your nervous system and dissolve any barriers that may keep you from fully seeing and expressing your true self.
The images we create together — what I call Soulscapes — become powerful reflections of who you are becoming.
Many women later use these images for their work, their visibility, or simply as sacred reminders of the moment they stepped fully into their truth.
Your transformation begins before you even arrive and continues long after you return home.
In the weeks leading up to your retreat, you’ll receive guidance and support via Zoom to help you prepare both practically and energetically for the journey ahead. This includes two creative consultations to prepare for your Soul Alchemy photo session.
You’ll also receive an embodiment coaching session to gently move through any blocks, patterns, or behaviours that may be ready to shift before your retreat begins.
After you return home, the journey continues with integration support, helping you anchor the changes you experienced during your time in the sacred landscapes of Southern France.
During this process you will learn how to:
• Call upon the elements of nature to centre, ground, and support your highest path
• Develop a deeper relationship with nature and the elemental realms
• Listen to the wisdom of your body and follow your inner guidance with greater clarity
• Reclaim forgotten parts of yourself and reconnect with your natural vitality
• Become more magnetic and open to new opportunities in life and work
• Embody your true nature and step forward with confidence in your calling
You’ll also receive practical guidance to feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, including simple ways to take beautiful photos and selfies that reflect your authentic presence.
this Retreat is for you if…
You have reached a threshold moment in your life or business and are seeking clarity about your next steps.
You feel something new wanting to be born, yet old patterns or beliefs seem to hold you back from fully stepping into it.
You are moving through a powerful life transition — such as entering peri-menopause or menopause and stepping into your radiant second spring.
Or you feel called to honour a milestone moment in your life — a 40th, 50th, or 60th birthday, or another meaningful turning point — by giving yourself a sacred experience you will remember forever.
You are transitioning from an established career into more soul-led work, seeking to bridge your professional life with your spiritual calling.
Or you are a business owner whose current brand imagery no longer reflects the depth of who you have become, and you long to be seen and represented in a more authentic way.
You long to reconnect with your feminine wisdom and natural cycles, reclaim forgotten parts of yourself, explore the Rose Path, or deepen your connection with the spirit of the Magdalene.
Whatever has brought you here, something within you already knows it is time to claim your sovereignty and live from your authentic power.
Because when we hide our light, we are not the only ones left in the dark.
There are people waiting for your light to guide them forward — so they too can remember their own.
Why Women Say Yes to the Sovereign Rose Retreat
Integrating soul and body
This retreat initiates a sacred inner union within your heart, allowing you to more fully embody who you truly are through deep sensory and cellular awakening.
When you return home, the journey continues. My ongoing support — along with your Soulscape photographs and affirmation videos — helps anchor these new energies into your everyday life.
Many women find themselves moving through life differently after this experience.
You may notice yourself:
• Checking in with your body’s wisdom before listening to external noise
• Making decisions from your sovereign heart rather than fear or obligation
• Saying no with clarity and compassion, without guilt or over-explaining
• Feeling a living relationship with the elements, the land, and the unseen world
• Leading your life, work, or community with tender authority and grounded presence
• Creating simple daily rituals that keep you connected to your truth
• Experiencing synchronicities that affirm your connection with Source and purpose
• Honouring your cyclical nature with reverence rather than shame
These shifts unfold naturally as the body integrates what was awakened during your time in the sacred landscapes of Southern France.
You return home centred, embodied, and rooted in the sanctuary of your own heart.

Your Guide Samjhana Moon
The Sovereign Rose retreat was conceived through purposeful inquiry and deep listening whilst bathing in the thermal waters and caves. I asked to be shown how to serve the people and weave the magic of the land with my experience, knowledge and talents. Every ritual and element was shown to me in visions and accompanied by clear directions.
I naturally create safe spaces that feel both grounded and transformative, which allows my clients to experience deep emotional breakthrough while feeling completely held. As a certified Embodiment Coach and Rose Preistess, I hold space for all parts of you with grace. Weaving together my creative intuitive magic, my deep reverence for the land, and my ability to see beyond people's surface-level insecurities into their core essence.
I've loved photography since I was a child, but decided to turn pro in 2009 to offer an alternative vision of women. I was driven by a desire to heal our relationship with our cyclical bodies, with our beauty, and with our sacred feminine nature. Because I understood that healing this relationship with self was the key to restoring our relationship with mama earth.
My life’s journey has taken me through corporate burnout, solo world travels, and profound spiritual initiations. In 2022, I followed a heart call to Southern France and found my personal paradise in the Aude Valley. Here, I've been initiated by the lands and waters, learning their secrets and medicine so I can share them with women who are also ready to claim their sovereign heart.

Common Questions & Considerations
-
Every woman who has completed this journey shares a similar reflection: the value extends far beyond the retreat itself.
The confidence, clarity, and embodied presence you gain become the foundation for how you show up in your life, relationships, and work moving forward.
As one participant shared:
"I actually felt and looked 10 years younger. It’s priceless."
Many women find that the transformation ripples into every area of their lives — influencing their business, creative expression, relationships, and sense of purpose in ways that far exceed the initial financial investment.
To explore the full retreat experience, including current pricing and options, you are warmly invited to receive the Rose Retreat Insider Guide using the form above.

For women accustomed to caring for others, the idea of dedicating five full days to your own transformation can feel unfamiliar. Yet this focused time creates the depth needed for lasting change.
As Becs noted, "It's phenomenal because you have the time to stay in a place longer and integrate what's coming up for you. That was such a gift." The concentrated one-to-one nature of this retreat accomplishes what might take years of scattered self-development work. -
This is a common concern that quickly dissolves. The retreat is thoughtfully paced with periods of integration and alone time, creating a perfect balance of guided experience and personal reflection.
As Rachel shared, "I feel safe in my own company so being with someone one-to-one, spending lots of time together felt daunting. The reality was that I loved being in your company. You gave me both space & loving connection." -
Many women arrive with anxiety about being in front of the camera. Samjhana has photographed over 700 women and knows how to guide you though this with somatic practices, patience and play.
Elaine's experience speaks to this directly: "The photography element made me fearful, I'm not comfortable having my photo taken. I can tell you it was not only a big part of the soul embodiment of really falling in love with myself, but the photos were beautiful and magical and I can look at them with love and no criticism at all. I went beyond all the fear." -
The personalized attention creates profound depth. As Becs explained, "I could really focus on me, I wasn't worried about what other people might be going through or what other people were thinking. I didn't feel like I was having to serve anyone but myself."
This focused container allows for complete customisation to your specific needs and rhythms, creating transformations that group retreats simply cannot achieve. -
No, the Sovereign Rose Retreat is not a cult or religion. It's a personal transformation experience rooted in connecting with yourself, nature, and your own inner wisdom. There are no belief systems you're required to adopt, no doctrine to follow, and no group ideology.
The ceremonies and rituals are tools for self-discovery adapted from ancient feminine wisdom traditions. They're designed to help you connect more deeply with your own truth, not to replace or contradict your existing beliefs. We explore nature-based practices, sacred symbolism, chakras, and feminine energy as frameworks for self-understanding, not religious doctrines.
Women from diverse spiritual backgrounds have attended this retreat—some are Christian, some practice other faiths, and some don't identify with any particular religion. What unites them is a desire to come home to themselves and step more fully into their authentic power.
You're invited to take what resonates and leave what doesn't. The goal here is liberation, not conversion. You remain sovereign over your own beliefs, your own path, and your own truth.
If you'd like to discuss how this retreat might align with your specific beliefs, I warmly invite you to book a clarity call.

I’m here to support you every step of the way. As a trauma informed certified embodiment coach I’ll be able to hold you through what comes up. This retreat is an opportunity to learn to trust your body wisdom, explore your boundaries and go beyond limitations that feel safe. My role is to help you move through some comfort zones so you can recognise your true power but this will always be with your consent. I respect your boundaries and intuitively know when to give you space and when to step in with support.
-
While I’ve designed this retreat to be a complete experience and yet it is possible, to remove or include certain elements. Please download the Insider Guide above to see the finer details and book a clarity call to explore options.
-
Retreats run May through October. Because this is a one-to-one retreat we will choose dates to suit both our schedules and I’ll help you choose the best season for you.
