WHAT IS IT?
It is a retreat and meeting. It is a traditional American native ritual - rite of passage. It is about staying alone in nature for 3 days, just you and nature. It is about connection with your lifeforce, will, intention, your prayers. You can get in touch with yourself, your body and soul, your angels and demons. You will understand more your current state, your relations, issues, needs, life mission. The vision quest is something about you, your contents. It is not about what others want you to do. It is about what you must do, because you want it and you know that you don’t want to miss it. Searching for the Vision could be your unique way how to be more aware.
We want to invite you to be a questor – the one who is “seeking the vision”.
