Lionsgate Portal Activation Retreat
The Lion's Gate Portal occurs when the Sun in Leo, the star Sirius, and Earth align. Across spiritual traditions, this alignment is associated with elevated energetic frequencies, increased intuition and inner clarity, and profound opportunities for personal transformation.
The 8/8 date symbolizes infinity, balance, and energetic amplification — making this one of the most potent moments of the year for releasing old patterns, letting go of limitations, and aligning with your higher purpose.
Guests will receive journal prompts and ongoing activities to continue to work with the portal energy.
Opening Ceremony 1-1:30pm
Meet your fellow retreat goers and healing facilitators for the day. Jenny will provide an overview of the day’s activities, set intentions, while creating a sacred space for all to learn, explore, and heal on the soul level. Participate in an energetic attunement. Bring an open mind and allow yourself to journey within, through the planned immersive experiences. Sound cleansing and sacred smoke will be used in the ceremony.
*You will receive a small journal to take notes in throughout the day, journal prompts, and a gift bag.
Lionsgate Portal Guided Meditation: 1:30-2:00pm
Participate in a guided meditation to focus our energy on the Lionsgate portal and how we can utilize the energy to amplify transformation. To support our goals, amplify manifestation, and release old patterns and programming.
Lionsgate Portal Energetic Anchor Workshop: 2:00-3:30pm
Create a physical energetic anchor by making an infinity necklace, bracelet, or pocket token. You will get to participate in making several items that combine sacred geometry, color frequency, and knot manifestation to lock your intentions into a physical object you can keep. Learn how crystals like citrine and quartz can amplify your anchor. Creating a miniature pocket token is perfect because the friction of touching it throughout the day instantly recalibrates your mind to your goal. Learn how to continue to utilize this item through mantra and energy long after the portal is closed.
* All supplies are included in the ticket.
Break: 3:30-4:00pm
Take time to walk the grounds or sit under the copper pyramid to activate or amplify the energy activation. Spend time in the gazebo, the forest paths, or on the rainbow bridge. Drinks and snacks served in Alchemy Speakeasy.
Reiki Infused Sound Bath : 4:30-5:30pm Jessiy Hawthorne Reiki Master, Sound Healer
Participate in a reiki-infused sound bath intuitively guided by Jessiy Hawthorne, Reiki Master and Sound Healer. Jessiy infuses her bowls with Reiki energy while she plays. Let the sound vibrations wash over you as you experience Reiki-infused sound healing that heals on the cellular level.
*Bring a yoga mat, pillow, or zero gravity chair to relax into the energy.
Closing Ceremony 5:30-6:00pm
Guests will return to the present after a day of learning and exploring the energy of the Lionsgate portal. Jenny will lead a closing ceremony to release old patterns, beliefs, or energy that no longer serve us. As we reflect on the day, discuss how our connection to the energy has grown today and what energy we can continue to work with. We will close our sacred space, integrate the lessons of the day, and identify ways to commune with nature. Guests will be able to transfer this knowledge into their daily practice.

Jessiy Hawthorn Reiki Master Sound Healer
Ever since I was a child I have felt connected to different types of energy. I have always been able to heal others but did not know there was a name for it. In December of 2019 I 'accidentally' ended up in a crystal shop one day and the owner asked if i heard of reiki. I did not so he invited me to a reiki share that happens every first wednesday every month. That was my first time getting a healing done and I was hooked. I had to learn this. So I got my reiki level 1 in May of 2020. Then got my level 2 and master level within a year and a half after that. I have always been a musician so I naturally gravitated towards sound healing. I got my certification for that soon after my masters. I love blending reiki with sound because it is like a double dose of healing. I love helping others and I enjoy seeing everyones faces afterwards. It brings me such joy.
