Nature retreat in Matthiessen State Park

3 Day Nature Womb Retreat

3 Day Nature Womb Retreat

June 27-30th, 2025

North Utica, IL

Join Venus, Transformational Teacher and Creatrix of Your Body Is The Medicine to experience the powerful energy of your womb in this Goddess Fire: 3 Day Nature Womb Retreat! The location will be about an hour and a half away from Chicago, in North Utica, IL which is right by Starved Rock and Matthiessen State Park–two breathtaking state parks that leave you feeling refreshed and renewed.

Some of us have forgotten that the womb is sacred and holds the power of all creation. It carries infinite life force energy that is intelligent and divinely nourishing. The womb is such an immense force of nature that institutions and systems of power want to control and delegate the F*!# out of it. This is why we need to deeply connect to and reclaim this sacred space as divine and healing. 

In this 3 day healing retreat you will:

  • Explore the landscape of your womb through the inner seasons of your blood or lunar cycle, whether or not you have a bleed because you are on birth control, menopausal, or you've had a hysterectomy.

  • Awaken the healing gifts of your cycle as a resource for self care, spiritual connection and everyday guidance.

  • Create a conscious community with like minded sisters who want to break free from societal constructs around the feminine and who want to live with more passion and joy.

  • Walk away as a renewed and embodied Goddess with potent wisdom and tools to navigate the unique rhythms of your cycle with ease.

What people are saying:

  • I recently had the pleasure of attending a Goddess Fire Retreat with Venus. She has a rare and incredibly ability to create a space where curiosity and introspection are not only encouraged but deeply felt. From the very beginning, we were invited into a sacred space of trust and vulnerability. Each day started with a heartfelt check-in and personal prayer, allowing us to openly share and transform our fears and hopes into moments of connection and growth. As a facilitator, she is truly exceptional–her toolkit is vast, and she skillfully integrates sound baths, Qi Gong, guided meditations, and teachings drawn from her extensive knowledge of mythology, Eastern philosophy, gender studies, and contemporary spirituality. Any event she facilitates is more than just a moment in time–the wisdom shared and gained within the spaces she creates has the ability to permeate all aspects of life, if you let it.

  • Venus always assembles a phenomenal group of women for her circles. The energy is fantastic–there's nothing like a group of women from all different generations exchanging love, hope, wisdom, and kindness. Venus cultivates so much authenticity, curiosity, and above all self-love and acceptance. I'm in awe of how much experience she brings, from sound healings to Qi Gong to Goddess worship and more. The energy in the room is beyond powerful–I can' wait to come back!
