The Wise Woman

Crone Work
Together we will be awakening the Wisdom of the Crone Goddesses for our own healing and personal transformation.
Our souls have called us to be here on the planet at this time, as active participants in the birthing of a new age. To be the way showers, we must do our own change work, and this six week program will support you to do just that.
It is happening online on Wednesday evenings, so you can stay in to do your work, yet still connect with like minded folk.
Together, through the ether, we will feel into the wise woman goddesses and access them for their wisdom and guidance through;
- Mythology
- Guided meditations
- Transformative exercises
We will draw on her knowledge, and use specific practices to embrace our whole holy selves, with gentleness and power.
The Goddess Pack, Handouts and Recordings are provided.
A 6 week payment plan is available for this course, or click the link below and pay in full to be the change.

You will learn about ;
- where the Tarot comes from and how it’s developed
- we’ll blow out a few Tarot myths

We will consider the Tarot as both a journey for Soul and a tool for traversing daily life.

These questions and more, can all be answered during our evening of Tarot!

Spiritual Aromatherapy 1
Sunday July 13th, 2025
1.00pm-5pm
This workshop is for people who are interested in alternative therapies and the use of essential oils for working on a more subtle, energetic, spiritual level.
You may be into self-care, a lover of aromatherapy who wants to know more, or perhaps you are a meditator, a teacher, or a healer of some kind, who wants to bring something additional in to your work, or your work space.
You may want to heal your own body and as this always starts in the subtle levels, you will find you are in the right place.
Whoever you are, and whatever you do, this kind of subtle aromatherapy can bring healing in such a gentle way, but be prepared to expand your mind, and your energy field.
If your left brain needs to know the what, know that we will cover things like;
- what healing is
- the subtle anatomy
- spiritual qualities of the essential oils
- personal prescriptions
This is a small, in person event, held at The Cottage in Albury, NSW.
Please bring a pendulum, plus a pen and notebook.
Cost $150

Meditations for Peace
Dec 14th - Dec 25th 2025
6am to 6.30am (each day)
The meditations for peace will be happening in QE2 Square in central Albury in the early morning for the twelve days of Christmas.
There will be a short introduction, and then a silent meditation each day.
This is a free event and all are invited. It is not religious or political, and it costs nothing to participate. It IS about coming together as a community and collectively holding an intention for peace.
There is much documented evidence that shows when groups of people gather together to focus on peace, whether that be in prayer or meditation, that positive changes occur.
Come and join in on the days that you can. Bring a chair to sit on, a rug, or simply sit on the grass. Come with others, or come on your own.

Life stays fresh when we are growing, learning, and leaning into change.
Those who are drawn to participate in Tarot classes, the Wise Woman program for Crone Work or other healing events run by Soulful and Wild, come from all walks of life. There is no defined age bracket, socio-economic bracket or set level of experience. There is however a commonality, and that is ‘the spark’. It’s a spark of light in the heart that is seeking oxygen and space to burn just a little brighter, and sometimes a lot brighter. At the core of things, this is what it’s all about. Whether its a Healing workshop, a Tarot Taster, a Spiritual Aromatherapy workshop, a Meditation event or one of our in person, urban, Seasonal Retreats or Circles, its all about taking a deep metaphorical breath in, and letting it out real slow. These events are designed to nurture and support, so you can shine ever brighter.
Soulful & Wild Retreats
It is natural right and good for women to ‘retreat’. It’s also really good for men.
Time away from normal life activities and responsibility has traditionally occurred for women in alignment with the moon cycle. They provided an opportunity to slow down, reconnect with the self and regenerate on all levels. Likewise, pagans have always gathered together to celebrate and honour the earth, to express gratitude for the bounty of the season that has passed, and to welcome in the new. This nature based, life affirming approach is at the core of each Soulful and Wild gathering, circle or retreat. There is always nourishment for body, mind and soul. These events are changeable in length and format, but are offered seasonally to keep us in sync with the turning of the wheel of the year. Gentle movement sequences, guided healing journeys, meditation, subtle aromatics, healing sound, it’s about time for Your Self.
