A 6-day immersive journey ceremonially designed to step into your self-leadership

using the sacred wisdom found in your deepest emotional wounds.


Let’s be honest …

You’re the strong one. The space-holder. The leader. The one others rely on.

But inside?

You feel hollow. Disconnected. Aching to be seen.

This is your moment to stop managing life and start alchemizing it.

The Dark Feminine Medicine Retreat is a sacred descent into the underworld of your soul.


A ceremonial, plant guided, somatic journey using the Dark Goddess Archetypes of Kali Ma and Mary Magdalene.

You will not leave this retreat “healed.”

You will leave ‘re-surrected”.



What is the Underworld? Why must we Women go there?


The Underworld is the realm beneath the surface — the deep psyche, the ancestral line, the dreamspace, the womb space.

For us women, it is the part of us that holds:

⇒ Grief we were never allowed to grieve

⇒ Rage we were told to silence

⇒ Power we were taught to fear

⇒ Truth we buried to stay safe

The descent into the Underworld is not darkness for the sake of pain, it is the darkness for the sake of picking up pieces of our fragmented selves.

⇒ To go down is to re-member.

⇒ To re-member is to re-claim.

⇒ To re-claim is to re-surrect your truth.


What is an Alchemical Journey?


Alchemy is the ancient art of transformation — the turning of the
dense and hidden into gold.

It is not a path of escape — it is a path of descent, of facing what’s
been buried, and reclaiming the treasures hidden in the dark.

In this retreat, alchemy will mean:

⇒ meeting the parts of yourself you’ve hidden, feared, or exiled
⇒ loving them fiercely into integration
⇒ eclaiming the wisdom hidden in your wounds
⇒ emerging not “healed,” but initiated

You will walk a sacred descent through the Three Thresholds of Shakti
— the Womb, the Heart, and the Third Eye —
to unlock the hidden wisdom encoded in your feminine body.


You need the Dark Feminine Medicine because…



  • You are The One Who Pretends She’s Fine

    You smile while you’re dying inside. You lead, you serve, you hold — and no one sees the quiet war inside your chest. You’re done keeping it together for everyone else.

  • You are The One Who Feels Everything… and Carries It Alone

    You sense the grief in the room before anyone speaks. You absorb the unspoken, the ancestral, the invisible. You’re drowning in emotion, but no one has the depth to hold you.

  • You are The One Who Silenced Her Rage

    You swallowed your “no.” Bit your tongue. Made yourself small to stay safe. But your rage is sacred — and it’s clawing its way back up your throat.

  • You are The One Who’s Numb from Giving Too Much

    You pour and pour and pour — into lovers, children, clients, friends. And now? You’re hollow. Touch repels you. Words annoy you. You crave disappearing… just so you can feel again.



Be held by the two Dark Goddesses…


Mary Magdalene

Resurrect Your Womb Leadership

Kali Ma

Open Your Fierce Heart for Authentic Expression

Guided by two Ancient Plant Allies…

Amanita Muscaria 

Anchors you into the womb and root, clearing illusion and ego

Blue Lotus

Opens your heart and third eye, awakening intuition and vision


Samhain is a Portal of Deep Initiation..

Samhain is an Ancient Sacred Celtic festival celebrated on the 31st of October marking the end of the harvest season and beginning of the ‘Darker’ half of the year.

Samhain is a celebration of the death cycle of Mother Earth and the honouring of the downtime between the end and the start of a new cycle, which when ignored leads to low & depressed energies during winter especially for us women.

Samhain time unlocks a magical portal between Death and Rebirth .. a perfect time to honor the Dark Feminine by shredding, releasing and rebirthing ourselves once again.


Inside the Dark Feminine Medicne Retreat, you will:

  • Enter the Underworld

    Journey into your body’s buried grief, rage, and memory.

  • Heal What Was Never Spoken

    Give voice to the trauma, silence, and shame passed through your matriarchal line.

  • Break Generational Patterns

    End the cycles of self-abandonment, scarcity, and fear — in you, and in your lineage.

  • Reclaim Your Lineage Gifts

    Awaken the womb-wisdom, healing power, and priestess path your ancestors carried before they were silenced

  • Become the Cycle-Breaker

    This is your moment to choose a new legacy. For you. For those before you. For all who come after.

But here’s the thing …
Dark Feminine Medicine Retreat is not for everyone!

This retreat is not likely for you if …

  • You want a surface-level, feel-good retreat with no deep emotional work
  • You are uncomfortable with sacred feminine rituals or ceremonies
  • You’re unwilling to sit with grief, rage, or truth without bypass
  • You are not ready to take responsibility for your path as a leader
  • You are looking for someone to “fix” or “heal” you without self-initiation

 


Dark Feminine Medicine Retreat is more than a 6 days in-person retreat.

It’s an immersive journey through three powerful phases with an option to upgrade –

  • One Month of Sacred Pre-Work (1st October - 3 audio modules)

    Before you arrive, you’ll receive preparation practices and transmissions to begin the descent. This is where the portal opens. You start listening. You begin remembering.

  • 6-Day In-Person Dark Feminine Medicine Retreat

    Held within sacred space — a full immersion into plant medicine, dark goddesses, feminine alchemy, and the three thresholds of Shakti. This is where you meet yourself — raw, true, unfiltered.

  • One Month of Integration & Support (5th November - 3 audio modules)

    After you return home, you’ll be guided through the re weaving. You will receive integration practices, group check-ins, and sacred sisterhood — so your transformation doesn’t just stay in the retreat, but anchors into your life.

  • Upgrade to Circle Facilitator for Free (Optional)

    If you are interested in holding sacred spaces for women in your community, this is a powerful pathway to deepen your leadership. The facilitator training will be an online mentorship after the retreat, which will include learning materials and a practical exam.

What some past participants are saying?


Self-Leadership Mentor for Women

I had the best week of my life! The sisterhood and the safe space allowed me to journey deep into recognising my patterns that were affecting many important areas of my life. I now have inspiration to use some of the practices into my business and empower my participants in their emotions. I experienced a wide range of emotions from crying, to laughter, to betrayal, to ecstasy in such a short span of time. I also loved visiting the sacred sites in Glastonsbury, it was truly magical. Jonita gave her full self into every circle we had and I am in awe of her devotion and knowledge in this subject of ancient feminine arts. I highly recommend her. ~ Maria Livet, Norway

Self-Leadership Mentor for Women

Jonita is a wonderful facilitator who sets the scene perfectly for a personal transformative experience. I had a very sensual experience – deep, sacred, fun and light at the same time. I loved all the bodily exercises and the delicious food served every day. It was a beautiful way to get in touch with myself and my Sacred Feminine and feel nourished. I made deep connection with the sisters present and felt confident in holding space for them too. I loved the womb sounding exercise as I could release a lot of tension from there. The bodily practices are something that I will be definitely integrating in my everyday life ~  Luise Jorgensen, Spain

Self-Leadership Mentor for Women

I used to feel uncomfortable been seen. Jonita guided us through the immersion in such a gentle and powerful way that I began to ease into recognising my gifts and my worth as a woman. It was a surreal experience to allow to be witnessed. Being in a safe sisterhood brought me back home to myself. I felt free in my body and my pleasure. Besides, I had the best ever week of eating the most delicious nourishing vegan food. I left the retreat feeling energised in my feminine spirit, creating soul-sisters who are still with me, holding space for me in my wins and lows. I now make sure that I gift myself a retreat at least once a year. ~ Amanda Kent, UK

Self-Leadership Mentor for Women

Wow wow wow!! From start to finish I felt completely safe, comfortable, nurtured, loved and totally supported. We ventured through our hearts, wombs & yonis together. We released so much of our own as well as our ancestral pain. It was a privilege to be able to do this for my sisters with my sisters. We laughed so much together and I truly felt like I could say anything without judgement. I cannot fully put into words how nourishing it is to be in the presence of like-minded women. I didn’t want to leave!! Jonita created such a beautiful safe space for us to journey together. She put so much love and care into it and she shared so much of her knowledge with us. ~Sophie Palmer, Ireland

Jonita Dsouza, Somatic Feminine Mentor

Born in India, settled in England, Jonita D’souza is a Self-Leadership & Somatic Feminine Arts Mentor for women and Creatress of Feminine Empress Codes, assisting modern day busy women who struggle with burn-out, body-love and authentic expression to reconnect with their feminine and sensual energy using the ancient feminine Taoist Tantric somatic arts, so that they can create a lifestyle that is fulfilling, nurturing and pleasurable. Jonita is also a certified Life Coach, NLP Practitioner, Master Hypnotherapist and combines the teachings of Indian feminine mysticism and shamanism in her work, facilitating monthly moon circles, online workshops and dark feminine retreats.

Her work has been featured in several self-development platforms.

(You can take your time and read all about it here.)

But just  until 16 years ago her life did not look this beautiful and fulfilling! Jonita was a ‘walking dead’ woman – disinterested in her well-paid job, stuck in a toxic relationshop, lost her beloved father in a sudden tradegy and her body covered with stage 2 eczema! It took her the next 5 years to deeply immerse in to the understanding of what it means to be a woman in the modern world, and discover and practice the spiritual teachings of the Divine Feminine Mysteries.

And guess what.. She found answers!! Answers that less than 1% of the women of the current times are integrating in their lives. She then made the decision to pass on the ancient feminine wisdom to as many women around and invite them on a life-enriching journey of exploring their femininity. As of now, Jonita has served thousands of women across the 7 continents and can humbly with fierce grace admit to be grateful channel of the Divine Feminine Consciousness on this planet.

Below are some Frequently Asked Questions..

NO. I create events and retreats as I am guided to do. If you are reading these lines, it is probably because you are feeling called towards your Dark Feminine. Lean in deeper into the call, if you are meant to be here, you will be. That’s for sure. If it’s a full body YES, get in touch with us to see what other possibilities can be made available to you.

This is THE BEST price for such a high value retreat on Dark Feminine you will find on the internet.

Also, your relationship to money speaks about the relationship you have with yourself. What are your priorities ? Where is your money being invested and spent ? Are you, your health, life and dreams a priority ? If yes, you will find a way to sustain your desire to join us.

There is always a way to manifest that which you desire. You may consider asking for support, reaching out to your community, family or soul tribe, saving money and cutting some expenses, and looking into the payment plan. The Universe always provides so as soon as your soul says a resounding YES.

This is my personal experience : every time I said yes to myself , I have found a way to have the money I needed. Secure your space with a $500 deposit and then space out the balance in 2, 3 or even 4 payments. We offer a very flexible payment plan.

Your deposit ($500) will not be refunded.

In case of cancellation before 1st September 2025, we will return your payment (minus the registration deposit $500).

In case of cancellation after 1st September, there will be no refunds. We are financially responsible for the training, so we ask you to respect that we cannot make any exceptions to this agreement.

In the event that you cannot attend the retreat but know of someone who can take your place, you may transfer the full amount of your fees paid to the 3rd party on the condition that we are notified immediately by both parties and accept the application of the new sister 30 days before the start of the retreat.

Fear is often a good sign because it shows you’re on the edge of something really big and important for you! I invite you to ask yourself the question : Is the fear a genuine concern for your safety or is the fear signalling you’re about to actualise yourself in a big way ? It is completely normal to feel fear when you’re about to leave your comfort zone and explore the landscapes of your Soul.

In fact I expect it every time I’m on the edge of my evolutionary path. I believe fear and discomfort are good signs : they are gatekeepers to your dreams and signs towards your courageous heart and visionary Soul. To alleviate the fear, seat with her : recognise the truth of what it is really about and decide what you want in your life. You’ll know this retreat is right for you if you feel the call in your heart!
