The Wild God. An Invitation to Explore the Masculine Spiritual Journey.
25.03. — 29.03.2026 17:00— 13:00 Spiritual Practice Center Stacija, Lūžņa village, Ventspils region, LatviaThis is an invitation to explore the masculine spiritual journey in a 5-Day encounter with the Wild God. Three days of descent through ritual, silence in nature, council, teaching, drumming and fire! At the end of the week, we will have a sweat lodge ceremony to begin a full 24-hour solo immersion into the wild (depending on the weather). You will return for a feast and céilidh (pronounced “Kay-lee,” with drumming, dancing, and mythic storytelling at the fire). The last morning we will celebrate the common good and common blessing that belongs to all of us. We have a natural split if a man is not able to do the full 5-Day immersion. He can come for the first 3 days and still have a deeply meaningful experience!

Led by: Jim Taylor — weaver & wisdom elder in the Illuman men's community (Illuman.org), where he conducts Men’s Rites of Passage and other events to strengthen the masculine spiritual journey. As a dedicated spiritual guide, wilderness wanderer, and lover of the more-than-human world, Jim engages other men in deepening their capacity for elder wisdom and soul work through immersions into wild landscapes and nature-based retreats. He has been married to Lynda for 36 years and is the father of three adult daughters.
You can also listen to Jim introducing one of the core practices he will use during this retreat — The Way of Council — which he describes as “deep speaking to deep.”
