QUEEN, RESURRECT YOUR IRISH GOLD

Retreat to Ireland’s Ancient East

Spring Equinox

21 April - 1 May 2027

With your host,

Eimear Stassin

Has Ireland being calling your name?

Are you seeking a sacred pilgrimage that’s goes deeper than most retreats ever will?

I’m calling for 9 women to join an sacred initiation. Women who know they are here to reignite the wisdom, lead with integrity and remember the sovereign frequency already encoded within them.

There’s a reason that Ireland is calling…

Because we buried the wisdom within the hills and mountains; the rocks, rivers and stones, within the bogs and crystal caves; within the stories, myths and the indigenous tongue….

Now is the time to retrieve this wisdom that is waiting for you to excavate.

This is a cultural, educational and enlightening retreat AND also a deeply healing, spiritual and transformational pilgrimage where the voice of the ancestors of these lands are waiting to commune with you once again.

~ Illuminate Ireland’s Gold within you and return home to rooted wholeness ~

 

Why 9 Women?

9 women allows all voices to be heard and ensures that every question is honoured. All our meals are shared and every ceremony is bespoke and held intimately. It’s important that we come together as individuals and as a collective where each woman claims their seat at the table.

I don't want anyone disappearing off into the background or feeling like they are alone or don’t belong. What I love the most is to create pilgrimages rooted in relationships rather than numbers. It makes it extra extra special!

 

Step inside this sacred pilgrimage and we will:

Share Stories: Because Ireland draws out the Seanachaí in you as the ancient storyteller.

Dream Big with the land:

What is your dream? Ireland asks.

Gather around the fire with Soul Family in sacred community. This is a Meitheal.

Ireland is ready now to share her magic, that went underground with the Tuatha Dé Danann, The Tribe of Danu, and is ready to be resurrected by your presence, frequency and energy once again.

 

You may be one of the women this pilgrimage is calling when:

  • You feel Ireland has been calling for years

  • You know your leadership is becoming more spiritual

  • You long for conversations beyond the surface level

  • You crave beauty, depth, ceremony and soul

  • You're ready to receive rather than always give give give

  • You're no longer looking for healing alone but are ready for initiation

 

Come with me to places that I return to over and over again. Places that I know intimately. Places that call me to return.

Places where I've cried, because of their power.

Prayed, because of their sacredness.

Listened amidst the spaciousness.

Danced with the fairies.

Received a thousand welcomes and beyond!

They have shaped me and who I am as a Dubliner, as a steward, as a voice for the land of Ireland.

Now I invite you to walk beside me and join me on this sacred pilgrimage home to your golden truth.

Join me in a small intimate group of 9 women.

For slow mornings, beautiful nourishing food and elegant accommodation (single occupancy).

Beautiful conversations, quiet moments and a rest day.

To enjoy the luxury of spaciousness, soul and satiation Irish style.

With personal visits to 12 and more sacred sites, royal hills, holy wells and royal seats of Ireland, with Eimear, who has a deep relationship with these places.

 
 

It’s not designed for tourists who want to race through the country or people wanting to tick the sites of Ireland off a bucket list.

It is for women who feel something ancient awakening within them.

Women who know they are being called home to themselves.

If those words cause your heart flutter, then Ireland may already be whispering your name!

This retreat isn't for everyone. You’ve got to feel the calling!

 

Ireland’s emerald crystalline core cradles Her heart of gold.

Gold runs through our bloodlines,

and through the arteries of Ireland.

 

The Retreat Route

The retreat route is a loop through Ireland’s Ancient East and Ireland’s Hidden Heartlands, starting and ending in Dublin city.

 

The retreat begins the moment that you say yes to yourself!

On a practical level, you'll begin receiving:

  • preparation emails

  • sacred practices

  • songs and meditations

  • access to a private group to connect with other participants

  • Irish blessings and journal prompts

So the retreat begins months before you land in Ireland!

 

Our Magical Itinerary:

The retreat begins on 21 April 2027 with a pickup from Dublin city centre and ends on 1 May 2027 in Dublin city centre.

 

Day 1: Dublin to Slane ~ Opening Ceremony for Royal Queens

Wednesday 21 April 2027

We meet in Dublin City Centre and travel to Slane in County Meath in Ireland’s Ancient East. With time to check in to our gorgeous accommodation, we then walk in sacred ceremony to The Hill of Slane.

This is an important starting point since it’s where St Patrick lit the Paschal fire in an attempt to snuff out the ancient pagan ways. We offer our feelings, thoughts and prayers at this panoramic, and perhaps windy, site.

We enjoy a ceremonial opening dinner in the form of a regal feast for Royal Queens.

The atmospheric Hill of Slane

 

Day 2: Reignite Your Gold Inside the Womb of Bóinn

Thursday 22 Apr 2027

After a leisurely breakfast and morning check-in, we visit the three monuments of the Newgrange Complex (Newgrange, Knowth & Dowth), hugged by the River Boyne, Goddess Bóinn’s river.

It’s a day to connect to the ancestors and elementals of these lands, including the Tuatha Dé Danann, the fairy beings, Goddess Bóinn and Sun God Dagda, through Eimear’s sacred storytelling and on site guided tours. We’ll have time at the stones as storykeepers to decode their symbology and unique meaning for you.

Enjoy integration time at the end of the day, with time to share and relax.

 

Day 3: Remember Your Royal Lineage at the Ancient Royal Seat of Tara

Friday 23 April 2027

Today we walk the Hill of Tara ~ the royal seat of the ancient Kings and Queens of Ireland. This ceremonial site holds secrets held beneath the mounds and above at the Lia Fail – the Stone of Destiny. Your destiny.

This is the place to remember your pure royalty within washed down by the pure holy waters at the Well at Tara.

Your audience with Queen Maebh awaits at her Rath, her fort, where we connect to her powerful energy. We drink the intoxicating mead (Irish honey wine) elixir from her golden chalice. This is the drink of royalty.

Returning to our accommodation, you’ll have time to integrate our day, share and relax.

 

Day 4: Queens Rise Up! Step onto Your Sovereign Throne

Saturday 24 April 2027

Today we journey to the Loughcrew Cairns and the home of The Cailleach Witch. Together we climb her hill (this is a steep pull up), connect with her energies and enjoy sacred storytelling.

You have the opportunity to step onto Your Throne as we celebrate YOU as you fully reclaim and embody your power upon your this ancient stone throne.

We Bloomfield House Hotel & Spa on the banks of Lough Ennell, County Westmeath, where we will spend the next 3 nights.

 
 

Day 5: Pause and Sacred Rest Day

Sunday 25 April 2027

Today is your rest day to enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Lough Ennell near Ireland’s centre, that carries important mythology. Today you can choose to enjoy an optional spa treatment; spend time writing within the inspirational surroundings on the banks of Lough Ennell. Enjoy a day of silence, connecting more deeply to your inner landscape with the land. Take a stroll around Lough Ennell or get to know your fellow retreat pilgrims even more deeply.

Today is a day to be with yourself and when you’re ready, we gather together and enjoy dinner at our beautiful hotel.

 

Day 6: Connect to Your Sacred Centre at Uisneach, the Spiritual Centre of Ireland

Monday 26 April 2027

After another beautiful breakfast, we travel to Uisneach to enjoy our very own private tour of The Hill of Uisneach. This is the sacred and geographic centre of Ireland of huge importance to ancient and modern Ireland. All of which you’ll learn more about in a fantastic and highly rated guided walking tour where we walk, barefoot if you wish, to Ail na Muireann, the stone of division or The Cat Stone.

Here you can enjoy a Return to Your Sacred Sovereign Centre attunement at The Cat Stone and the final resting place of Goddess Ériu.

We’ll also visit St. Brigid's Well, Tobar Bhríde, by The Hill of Uisneach to commune with the sacred waters connecting to the umbilicus, the omphalos, connecting you to earth and cosmos.

 

Day 7: Ireland’s Hidden Heartlands to Ireland’s Ancient East ~ Uisneach to Kildare

Tuesday 27 April 2027

Today we move on and drive east to County Kildare, the home of Goddess and Saint Brigid, keeper of the sacred flame, stopping off at significant sites along the way including the Cloncrow Bog and Village Trail to enjoy an immersive walk into the rich diversity and significance of an Irish peat raised bog which is dated to 10,000 years old. The trail winds through the village of Tyrrellspass founded by the Norman Tyrrell family.

Croghan Hill, Cnoc Cruacháin, is also an important site to activate our Queen. An extinct volcano rises out of the Bog of Allen in County Offaly. The birthplace of Saint Brigid of Kildare is believed to be nearby. We connect to our buried treasures here. Perhaps this is where you buried your gifts to be retrieved now.

 
Follow the flicker of Brigid’s flame as the Magdalene’s flame of pure truth. The veils are lifting, allowing access to vast libraries of wisdom. Wisdom that has been held secret and sacred until now.
— Eimear
 

Day 8: Ignite Your Inner Flame with Triple Goddess Brigid

Wednesday 28 April 2027

It’s time to explore Kildare on foot! Goddess Brigid awaits your arrival with her welcoming sacred flame.

We begin at Kildare Heritage Centre to enjoy a wonderful educational virtual reality tour to learn about Brigid of Kildare. We visit St Brigid’s Cathedral to enjoy the beautiful exterior and interior, including a Sheila-na-gig.

On the grounds of St Brigid’s Cathedral lies the remains of Brigid’s Fire Temple. We will spend time here in sacred ceremony to honour fire elemental and Brigid as Goddess and Saint.

Tonight there’s Live Irish Music at our hotel - what an experience this will be!

 
 

Day 9: Sacred Waters and Brigid’s Holy Wells

Thursday 29 April 2027

Today is all about Brigid and Sacred Water for another day of exploring Kildare town on foot. We step inside the peaceful St Brigid’s Parish Church where a relic of St Brigid is held.

We continue our walk to for a further to Brigid’s Holy Wells (yes! there are 2 Brigid’s wells!). We will take time to commune with Brigid, her holy well waters and the sacred Hawthorn trees. We have all the time we need here to soak up the sacredness of these wells.

Enjoy a Brigid’s Well Waters of Wisdom and Storytelling Ceremony.

 

Day 10: Igniting the Spirit of Revolution Within to ReAlign You On Your Path

Friday 30 April 2027

Leaving Kildare we drive to County Dublin and St Endas Park by Eimear’s birth home. Within St Endas Park is the Pearse Museum which is a former school for boys founded by Irish Revolutionary Patrick Pearse.

Here we enjoy a private tour which takes you on a journey through Ireland’s revolutionary journey and fight for freedom.

We’ll spend time connecting more deeply to the history of Ireland’s rising and the role of the poets, teachers, visionaries and dreamers in Ireland’s attempts of colonial liberation.

Enjoy the tranquillity of St Endas Park in the peaceful surroundings whilst being serenaded by the gentle sounds of trickling water, birdsong and bumbling bees.

We return to Dublin city centre for a Closing Ceremonial Integration dinner, now as Royal Embodied Queens.

 

Day 11: Checkout and Depart Forever Changed

Saturday 1 May 2027

We have entered the season of Bealtaine! We enjoy a Bealtaine Breakfast before checking out of our hotel for good. Then it’s time for the long or short Irish goodbyes depending on your onward travels & departures, forever transformed.

 

How will you know you are transformed when you return home?

  • You'll trust your intuition more deeply

  • You'll make decisions with greater clarity

  • You'll feel more deeply rooted rather than rushed

  • You'll carry Ireland within you, within your heart, within your whole being

  • You’ll walk like a Queen who knows her higher vision and purpose now

  • You'll remember who you are when life becomes noisy again, and you’ll know how to be the calm in the centre of the storm

  • You'll leave with the quiet certainty that your life can no longer be lived in the old way.

  • And that is priceless

 
Eimear you have been a beautiful beacon of magic to me over this journey. Your authenticity, beautiful heart and innate wisdom have been such a gift on this journey. You have a natural ability to welcome all into the circle and know exactly what is needed to hold a safe space. The witches have a strong connection through you and they really have found a flaming beacon of light through which to shine.✨
— Michelle Wilson
Eimear, you’re so good at crafting journeys and your voice and accent make it the perfect package. Thank you for this profoundly profound wisdom!
— Amanda

Meet Your Retreat Guide, Eimear Stassin:

 

Dia duit / Hi! I’m Eimear

I’m from Dublin, Ireland and, after travelling the world for a year in ‘99/ 2000, I laid down new roots in Scotland where I live with my husband, 3 children and Border Collie dog called Riley. I love rocks, travelling to sacred sites, gathering people in circle and walking the land!

In early 2017 I stepped out through the revolving doors of Corporate into the setting sun of Edinburgh’s West End, leaving my 20 year Global Financial Services Career for good.

Choosing entrepreneurship set me on a path of deep spiritual exploration of self, identity and our purpose here on earth. With no road map other than my growing trust in the wisdom of my soul, I could not have planned for what has unfolded since!

A dramatic witch awakening on 8:8:2020 whilst going on tour of the Edinburgh Dungeons plunged me deeper into healing the witch wounds of persecution, suppression and silencing. Opening my channels to the transmissions of The Witches and my own gifts that I had shut down; healing my throat chakra to speak this wisdom into the collective.

Around the same time, my curiosity piqued into my own Irish heritage including my namesake Eimear of the 6 gifts of womanhood, re-aligning me with The Irish Medicine Wheel and Irish Goddesses and Gods, who I would come to befriend and forge deep and lasting relationships with.

Ireland was calling me home! The pull was strong to travel to the sacred sites mainly around Ireland and Scotland, to embody the remembrances and to continue to heal and share my experiences with others. Returning to my deep Irish roots and to stories of my ancestors continues to unlock so much magic, inspiration and creativity from within me in an endless well of wisdom so rich and profound! Which is why I have created this special retreat, to share all I’ve experienced with you.

Goddess Brigid made herself known to me in early 2023, handing me a tiny ember that became a flame in the palm of my hand. Alongside her came The Magdalenes, who stepped into my awareness as a collective returning now as one, of deep nurturing love.

In late 2024, I founded The Irish Wisdom School where the voices and wisdom of Ireland could speak freely once again.

From WITCHES to GODDESSES to MAGDALENES to QUEEN to ÉRIU once again.

The message from The Witches and wise ones has always been to rise up, return to our power and step back onto our throne. To be the Queen/King that we are and have always been. Displaced from our throne, our seat of power, we are being called now to reclaim our own rites of Queendom/Kindgom within our divine temple.

I’ve carefully curated and crafted this retreat in order that you can rise up and return to your innate power that has always been here. Ireland, the land and my connection with these sacred lands, are catalysts where I encourage you to walk alongside me, learning, inspiring, healing, uplifting, embodying and illuminating your unique royal noble frequency of Ireland’s Gold.

I look forward to walking the deeply sacred lands of Ireland’s Ancient East with you.

Le grá / with love,

Eimear x

 

Read about what other’s say about their retreat experiences hosted by Eimear:

 

“Fabulous. Magical and very comfortable.

The comraderie with Eimear and all the participants was wonderful!

I loved it all, the choices of the sites we visited and the healing ceremonies/journeys were amazing!

A wonderful retreat, would highly recommend!”

- Monica McCarthy, Canada. Dingle 2025 Retreat

“Personally I found the retreat to be unique and transforming, each day I experienced a touch of nostalgia.

Our host Eimear has a nurturing and joyful nature, welcoming us all like we were family! Each song, each meditation and each sacred journeying session was deeply felt spiritually!! We celebrated each day for what we have accomplished and for making our wishes possible! Lots of laughter and tears, a lifetime experience I’ll hold close to my heart for I now have Anam Cara’s (soul friends).

I didn’t want the retreat to end and would have loved more days added for more adventures and time spent together! - Sophia Jennings, Australia. Dingle 2025 Retreat

 

“THANK-YOU!!!!! Thank-you for sharing your precious childhood memories and places and making it all special for US to appreciate and enjoy.

I loved that we were all together in the same place for a true group experience. Having the lounge was wonderful for our morning and evening wandering in and out. The inn was just the right size, really cozy.

I appreciated the way things just unfolded naturally, rather than trying to "force" fit into a predetermined schedule. The stories were discreetly sprinkled in throughout…I also loved the way we could improvise around the "plan"- we pretty much did everything/went everywhere, but in the right time, with lots of lovely surprises sprinkled throughout.” - Evelyn, Canada. Dingle 2025 Retreat

 

"There was such a sense of acceptance and freedom. Loved the fun and laughter. It was so infectious.

Everything was compact, the kitchen, the bedrooms, the meeting area. This gave a cosy welcoming energy to retreat. The love and respect between participants. The way you allowed the flow to change as it needed too. Everyone was encouraged to participate in whatever way the energy moved them.

Eimear, what to say about you, dear one! Your warmth, love, sense of fun and total Professionalism all rolled up in a witch with a huge smile and even bigger heart.

You are the central wheel that had an idea and made it happen. I'm eternally grateful.

It was why I was meant to travel all the way from Australia to experience magic - your magic." - Suzanne Dainer, Australia. Scotland 2023 Retreat

"The stunning & very powerful location. The facilitators & creators who had clearly been working & weaving this for a long time so it was inspirational & a privilege to be a part of! The spontaneity & inclusivity.

Wow! I tear up each time I think back to our amazing shared experiences together. To me you are a visionary, a leader, a powerful & inspirational storyteller, a mother, an Irish goddess warrior & witch of the earth & fire! You have great insight, wisdom & strength that resonates so deeply yet you are beautifully humble, open, candid, vulnerable & modest about your divine abilities & gifts.

You do not seek the limelight, glory or accolades. You have a deep truth in your heart that is leading the way & attracting many loyal believers & this is merely the beginning for an entire spiritual transformation as a result of your awakening & desire to speak your truth & resonate deeply with those who will walk beside you on this path in true faith, trust, honour & gratitude.  Thank you so much!" - Liam Imison-Harvey, UK. Scotland 2024 Retreat

 

"Given the experience of the weekend - it’s impossible to be anything but in awe of it!

Eimear, your graciousness, ease and warmth set the tone and temperament for the entire experience - and that was important as we each rode the rollercoaster of our own experience. You are a generous leader and your steadying presence was important through all the work that was undertaken. I was blown away with what I received.

The schedule was good - with enough time for rest and breaks, and to enjoy breakfast. The balance of opportunity for each to speak so that we all got a sense of who each other is, was really good. Each had time, no one dominated.

I have not attended anything like this before...your event was grounded, possible to step into for me - and in a most compelling place! I think it was an off the charts success - and thank you for it!" - JB, Canada. Scotland 2023 Retreat

"I liked the fact that we all participated, I felt each of us brought his or her gift and it was shared in service to the healing of all of us.

For me to see my book come alive as a play, and realizing my work was so well received was a Wow moment. The bowls, the singing, the oils, the drumming and our presence, all together made it a powerful experience.

Just say how grateful I am that Eimear hosted this retreat and made us all feel welcome and valuable. I never felt there were "teachers" and "students". We were all powerful witches.

How I wish I could participate in many more of these retreats..." - LC, UK. Scotland 2024 Retreat

 

Come, step into sacred space.

Remember how we lived in wondrous co-creative ways.

Dancing with the spirits of the land.

Communing with the elementals.

Weaving magic with the fairies.

Dreamweaving together.

Birthing new worlds into existance.

May the true voice of Ériú be heard now.

Retreat to Ireland’s Ancient East next Spring Equinox ~ a powerful initiation is waiting for you!

With love,

Eimear x
