The Moon & The Mountain Retreat

Lion's Gate Portal: August 8th-11th, 2024

An Unforgettable Immersive Journey of Spellcasting, Rituals and Community in the Catskill Mountains of Upstate New York.

"When you show up for your magick, your magick shows up for you."

“Witch Camp was one of the most important experiences of my life. It filled me up with so much love and appreciation that I barely recognized myself. I became a new woman in Witch Camp because I recognized my gifts. Leaving Witch Camp - I felt reborn and I can’t wait to go back !” - Shana

What is The Moon & The Mountain Experience?

The Moon & The Mountain is a fully immersive journey that has a real-life magickal story arc. Each day you spend in the breathtaking Catskill Mountains, you will gain mystical knowledge and experience with spells and rituals that build upon each other. Then, together as a group, we put all of our practices into action in our ceremony on the final night.

Immerse Yourself in the Mystery & Magick:

Reignite your own sense of wonder as you tap into the magick of the forest, the trees and the mountain.
Honor your journey as you are anointed with golden frankincense, myrrh & amber as you learn high ceremonial rituals to boost your magick, connect to your Ancestors and increase your confidence.
Gather around the nightly bonfires to enjoy marshmallows (with the cutest smores kits for everyone!), sing Sigil Songs under the stars and perform music magick with handmade instruments.
Cultivate your own unique natural abilities as you are surrounded by a nurturing, safe and inclusive community of magick-minded friends.
Refresh your spirit as you breathe in the mountain air of this magick land, and enjoy sauna time, wild foraging on the forest paths and the exceptional Summer sunsets on the mountain.
Learn step-by-step, passed-down folk magick secrets of my Bohemian ancestors.
Embrace the power of your own personal magick as you weave spells and gain step-by-step guidance (this personal, boutique experience offers individual attention and a full, connected experience)
Relish the enjoyment of being surrounded by a positive and kind community, and also have your own private space (and bathroom) to retreat to so that you can journal, relax, and reset!
Make memories (and a community of Witch kindred friends) of a lifetime in the Moon & The Mountain Witch Camp!

''The thing that I truly cherish is the amount of crafted magic we create and have to take home with us. To remember, that the sisterhood, the Magick and our ownership of the power we all have is real. It's there, inside of us. I look at the magick crafts we made and the time and rituals we did making them. I feel the love, the sisterhood and I am instantly connect back to being in a safe and powerful place." - Midnight Ruby

The Story Behind Witch Camp

One of the biggest questions I get is: "How do I know if I'm a Witch?"

I believe that we were all born with magickal gifts.

When we were children, we allowed ourselves time to play, to create art without judgement, to use our intuition & our wild imaginations.

Witch Camp provides that safe space to ignite that spark of childhood, but now with the power and wisdom of your adult self.

My personal mission in creating Witch Camp is to uplift and support you on your own journey, so that you may fully embrace your unique supernatural gifts and uncover powers you might not have even been aware of.

Witch Camp is also a place for you to discover new aspects of the Craft with hands-on instruction in a nurturing learning environment. All of the Witch Camp teachers focus on nonjudgemental learning techniques to create space for campers to try new ideas, to volunteer new imaginative ways of magick, to share and to encourage new ways to tap into their own individual high magick without fear of failure, mistakes or ridicule. With this method of learning and sharing, I have witnessed people brand new to the Craft lead powerful ritual when they listened to what their heart and their own intuition told them.

I believe that true magick is a matter of remembering what's already within you and giving that a voice.

My mission is to create a safe space in this fellowship that you can always call home.

''Each and every moment, from quiet journaling in the woods to the grand group ceremonies, I cherish dearly. Witch Camp has had a profound affect on my life; helping me to meet like-minded friends and to weave magick into my daily life." - Heather Blanchard

The Witch Camp Creed

Respect. Honor. Kindness. Soul Community.

Witch Camp welcomes all levels of experience from brand-new beginners to advanced practitioners. We believe that everyone has their own unique magick to share and also to learn at Witch Camp. This retreat is open to all female, gay men, queer, trans, non-binary and two-spirit identified people. We foster a climate of purposeful inclusion, an environment where all can feel safe, valued, cared for and given an opportunity to form meaningful connections with each other. We cherish the diversity of humanity, a diversity which includes differences in age, race, ethnicity, natural origin, range of abilities and gender identity, because when we learn and share our unique experiences in a thriving, safe community, that's where the real magick happens.
