Ancestral Healing and Reconnection Ceremony
Hosted by Celine Roche of Voyages Celeste
With Elder Sangoma John Lockley
21-24 November 2025 (Registration until 20 October)
Mont-Blanc, France

In the spirit of reconnecting with dreams, nature, and our Ancestors, Celine Roche warmly invites you to join her and John Lockley in France for a unique 4-day retreat of traditional Sangoma ceremony, featuring drumming, chanting, dancing, dreamwork, and a 1-day pilgimage to the foot of Mont-Blanc.

An initiated medicine man from the Xhosa nation, John shares the sacred foundations of Leopard Medicine — Breath (Spirit), Bone (Ancestors), and Dream (Great Spirit), teachings that invite us to awaken our luminous nature and remember our connection to all of life. Rooted in the South African philosophy of Ubuntu (“Humanity”), these practices guide us to live in harmony, compassion, and interconnection.

Together, participants will explore dreamwork and prophecy, communication with ancestors and spirit guides, cleansing with medicinal plants, and trance dancing to awaken the spirit and energize the soul.

The retreat concludes with a day to honor the Spirits of Nature. Mont-Blanc, the “Roof of Europe.” Rising to 4,808 meters, this majestic mountain has long been a symbol of timeless wisdom and spiritual ascent — a sacred place where earth and sky meet, reminding us that our journey, too, is toward the radiant summit of our own soul.
