The ceremony begins with a process of deep preparation at home in your own life which includes a Day Walk ceremony. This ensures that you take the time to focus on the Vision Quest and also offers an opportunity to check that your equipment is in good order. Our week together will begin with two further days of preparation with the group. You will then spend 55 hours alone in the beautiful landscape of South Devon, supported by a strong circle and the nature around you. It is a time to ‘cry for a vision’ and simply to allow the deepest parts of your own being to be in dialogue with the web of life around you.
For those that are already following a vision, the vision quest is a more contemplative ceremony where in the presence of nature, you can strengthen what you already know and see the next steps in your journey.
The return from the Quest is an important time to share your story with your fellow travelers and receive a name as a reflection of your time from the ceremonial leader. There will be time at the end to ground yourself and contemplate the task of bringing what you have learned into form and into the rest of your life.
