Join me on pilgrimage to Glastonbury & sit with the medicine of earth & rose.
Priestess, do you feel the call?
rose priestess
Life is short & sacred. For the last decade I've been creating spaces of spiritual nourishment for women to come home to themselves in. These moments in sacred space are life-changing. They disrupt the patterns of daily life, punctuating them with magick. They are times of expansion and growth for women who want to savour every drop of life. Rose Priestess is a gathering unlike any other I've held, blending embodiment and earth medicine with a pilgrimage to sacred sites in Glastonbury, tracing the red thread of feminine wisdom and the memory of the ancient goddess temples.
LEARN MORE
Glastonbury is a land of myth & magick. Rose Priestess is a gathering where you are held on sacred land, in reverence, in practice and guided by the wisdom of the earth beneath your feet. By learning how to sit with Avalon Roses and make medicine with them, you become a conduit for the ancient whispers of this wild and beautiful place.

Explore Avalon's sacred sites with a group of wild sisters by your side.
Rose priestess
In summer, Avalon hums and thrums with energy. I'll guide you through Glastonbury's sacred sites and into ceremony with the land and its beings. We'll be staying at a working apothecary and retreat centre, nestled amongst green hills and abundant gardens. This gathering places the land at its centre and we, her students, gather around to listen. Our home for the weekend is filled with pink damask roses and you'll be invited to sit with them and to create a hydrolat which is yours to keep – a bottle of liquid love for spell work and blessings.
Be a woman who loves life
The Rose Lineage is the red thread of ancient goddess temple wisdom woven from the roots of civilisation into the present day. The Rose Priestess pilgrimage takes these esoteric principles beyond the realm of stories and ideas and into embodiment via earth and body-based approaches.
You'll stay in a secret garden full of roses and medicinal plants, tended with love and reverence for the earth.
Many women are being called by the plant teacher, Rose at this time on earth. Rose is a powerful ally and wisdom-keeper for women. At this gathering you will be invited to sit with and work with rose as an indigenous plant medicine of the green lands of Avalon. Rose is a teacher of the feminine mysteries, the mystic heart & the awakened womb. Her medicine is woven into Avalon's myths and braided into this wild land.
Rose carries the highest vibrational frequency of all flowers at 320 MHz. There are many ways you will work with rose during your retreat.

There's nothing I love more than creating spaces of beauty and spiritual nourishment for women on the sacred feminine path. I've been hosting women's retreats since 2016.
Miriam’s work opened my eyes to
a whole new world of feminine wisdom, energy and sisterhood.
Juliette, Switzerland
She is a living gem on earth, a wild and a wise woman, holding space with so much love and grace. Walking the path of remembrance and reclamation of the feminine with her is a blessing.
Miriam’s guidance brought me to my knees in great reverence to the feminine, the magic, the mystery, the beauty of all that is.

Miriam’s work opened my eyes to a whole new world of feminine wisdom, energy and sisterhood.
I didn’t realise it was missing in my life until her workshops and retreats opened me up to this old wisdom. I wish I had this wisdom and knowledge when I was just a girl – it would’ve significantly shaped the woman I have become. This work is powerful.
Juliette D,
Switzerland
Miriam gently guided
us into new depths of embodiment, power
and magick.
Every exploration she invited us into was an offering to drop deeper into our own feminine wisdom and it was so, so beautiful. I have come away from the mentorship with an even deeper layer of embodiment within my own life and own practice.
Jasmine Chew,
England
Miriam's strong, soft, warm & sensual guidance made an everlasting impression on my soul.
Within the space she cultivated, she exemplified that authentic leadership surpasses dominance and control, instead emphasising the power of collaboration, respect, and a profound reverence for the innate feminine energy within every individual.
