Women & Wolves 2022 Wild Magic: Dancing with the Divine, a 10-week Program

about this event

An immersive program of transformation & empowerment, inspired by the wisdom of wolves

Featuring 9 weeks of group processing, prompts, rituals & a full-day retreat at Wolf Heart Ranch

The wolf stands in deep connection with the earth, ever curious about the world that surrounds her. For the wolf, adaptation and collaboration are a given, yet her powerful sense of purpose and place never waiver. At present, we humans face a time where both our inner and external landscapes may feel like scorched Earth; as if a fire has ravaged the constructs we once held true. But following a fire, the soil becomes fertile; the Divine Feminine emerges, ready to balance the polarities and disparities that created the destruction. The wolf’s dance with the divine and the mystical is ancient – everything intertwined. What Wild Magic do you have secreted away? What inner bounty wants to be unearthed and shared?

Wolf Connection’s Women & Wolves program series began in 2017, and since that time we have been honored to host a growing community of women who have gathered to experience the wisdom and medicine of the wolf. After witnessing the self-awakening and powerful female collective consciousness that emerges in these single-day programs, we began offering this heart-centered, immersive program in 2021. We kicked off with the inaugural theme of “Awakened Truths: Reclaiming Our Wild” – to honor the transformative process of embracing our inner wild via the guidance of our wolf teachers.

This ten-week immersive program fosters a pack experience for women around the globe with virtual weekly teachings and gatherings, culminating with an in-person retreat at Wolf Heart Ranch for women and wolves to connect in real time and in sacred ceremony. Week by week, participants will be invited to expand their capacity to be with the power of our primal emotions as women – the importance of our fire, our feelings, and even our fears. We explore our instincts and connections to the Earth and the divine wisdom each of us already carries. We challenge ourselves as a pack of women to embrace our wild magic, and deepen our connection to Mother Earth and the mysterious. Overall, this program is for anyone female identifying interested in a journey of personal growth and transformation, and are prepared to be challenged in this regard via the teachings of the wolves and the human facilitators.

Of the dozens of women who’ve completed the 10-week program and hundreds who’ve participated in Women & Wolves day offerings, some have shared: I’ve developed the courage and confidence to step into new roles and move through deep blockages.”

“The structure of this program allowed for a truly magical journey of transformation to unfold. SO WORTH IT!!!”

“After a long time of feeling like a lone wolf, I felt like I found my pack. “

“TRULY LIFE CHANGING AND MAGICAL.”

“The Women and Wolves program promised an experience that will create a safe space to grow and find the magic and fire within us. My experience as a participant in Women and Wolves most definitely did exactly that. I left the retreat on the final day enchanted with the possibilities the future holds. The entire experience blessed me with more knowledge, peace, forgiveness, vision, self respect, friendship, curiosity, love, magic, fire, grace and grit.”

“I want to say from the bottom of my heart that this program has touched my soul in many ways and was the medicine I did not even realize I needed.”

“I am so grateful to the women that thoughtfully created the program and generously shared their knowledge, tenderness, and respect for the wolves-and what they can teach us.””I sit here with tears in my eyes as I think about my experience in Women and Wolves. To say that this program is life-changing seems like an understatement. I feel like I will never be the same person again, in a good way. This program woke me up to something that was sleeping in me, an embracing of parts of myself as reflected to me through the wolves. If you are a spiritual woman who feels a connection with wolves, this program is for you! The program is facilitated by amazing women who care deeply about what they do and what they have to offer. I appreciated how well organized both the zoom meetings and the in-person retreat were, and I have the utmost respect for the mission of Wolf Connection.”

Wolf Connection is a unique educational sanctuary and wilderness retreat center located in the mountains of the Angeles National Forest, that brings people together through direct relationship with rescued wolves for the purpose of empowering the next generation to become authentic leaders and stewards of the earth. With the help of the animals, at-risk groups and adults reconnect with nature, learn to be of service by responsibly caring for another being, and work towards becoming the kind of person they want to be through Wolf Therapy®. The animals help them focus on their impulses, feelings and emotions in a constructive way; they learn to forgive and give others (and themselves) a second chance. https://wolfconnection.org/
