Manifest Your Magic: A Full Snow Moon Winter Retreat

 

This year’s Manifest Your Magic retreat was intentionally chosen to align with a powerful energetic threshold: the opening weeks of the Year of the Fire Goat and the February Full Snow Moon, also known as a Super Snow Moon.

The retreat takes place just after Lunar New Year begins the Year of the Fire Goat and lands beneath the light of the Full Snow Moon. Together, these energies create a meaningful container for reflection, renewal, creativity, manifestation, and heart-led intention.

Set along the quiet winter landscape of Lake Superior, this all-inclusive retreat is designed to help you unplug, soften, restore, and reconnect with the vision that is ready to move through you. Over four days, you’ll be guided through transformative practices, soulful ceremonies, sound healing, breathwork, creative ritual, and intentional manifestation work created to help you release what no longer feels aligned and open yourself to the next chapter of your life.

And this year, the experience extends beyond our four days together.

Manifest Your Magic has been intentionally expanded into a deeper retreat container, with opportunities to connect, reflect, and prepare before arriving in Bayfield, plus continued community, resources, and integration support after you return home.

The Full Snow Moon arrives in the heart of winter, a season when nature appears still on the surface but is quietly preparing for what comes next. Spiritually, this moon invites reflection, clearing, inner listening, and illumination. It asks us to pause long enough to notice what is ready to be released and what is ready to be nourished.

The Year of the Fire Goat brings a complementary energy of creativity, intuition, beauty, compassion, warmth, and gentle strength. The Goat is often associated with artistry, harmony, emotional wisdom, and heart-centered connection, while the Fire element adds courage, passion, vitality, and forward movement. This makes the beginning of the Fire Goat year a beautiful time to reconnect with your inner vision, tend to your dreams, and move into the year with more intention and trust.

We’ll gather Thursday evening for a warm welcome dinner, opening the weekend with breathwork, meditation, visualization, and sound healing. As the Full Snow Moon builds and peaks during the retreat, our practices will center around release, renewal, manifestation, and reconnecting with the wisdom already within you.

Across the weekend you’ll experience:

• Breathwork to release and reset

• Opening and closing cacao ceremonies

• Full Snow Moon manifestation ritual

• Moon cycle manifesting

• Crystal grids and altar creation

• Art therapy and creative manifestation

• Meditation and gentle movement

• Fireside reflection

• Sound baths for deep relaxation

• Guided journaling and intention-setting

• Spacious time for rest, reflection, and connection

This retreat is an invitation to pause, listen, and create space for what is next. Through the grounding stillness of winter, the illumination of the Full Snow Moon, and the creative spark of the Fire Goat year, you’ll be supported in releasing old patterns, clarifying your intentions, and stepping into your vision with more openness, courage, and heart.

You’ll also have spacious time to rest, journal, explore the snowy Lake Superior shoreline, enjoy Wild Rice Retreat’s on-site amenities, visit the sauna, attend daily yoga, walk the winter trails, or simply be still.

YOUR RETREAT BEGINS BEFORE BAYFIELD

Manifest Your Magic is more than a four-day getaway.

This experience has been intentionally designed to support you before, during, and after the retreat so that you have time to arrive with intention, experience our time together fully, and continue integrating what unfolds once you return home.

Guests who register by November 15 will be invited into our pre-retreat experience beginning in December.

Pre-Retreat Community Gatherings

We’ll gather virtually for two community calls, one in mid-December and one in mid-January.

These gatherings are designed to help you meet the women you’ll be sharing the retreat with, begin building connection before we arrive in Bayfield, and create intentional space for reflection and preparation.

Each gathering will include a combination of conversation, guided reflection, and meditation.

Pre-Retreat Reflection Workbook

Before the retreat, you’ll receive a thoughtfully created Manifest Your Magic workbook featuring guided reflection questions, intention-setting exercises, and space to explore what you are ready to release, receive, and call forward.

Your workbook will help you begin your retreat experience before you ever arrive in Bayfield and will continue to serve as a space for reflection throughout our time together.

30-Day Post-Retreat Integration Gathering

Approximately 30 days after the retreat, we’ll come together again virtually for a community integration gathering.

This experience will offer space to reconnect, reflect on what has shifted since returning home, revisit your intentions, and receive additional guidance and meditation as you continue integrating your experience.

Private Post-Retreat Coaching With Jean

Each attendee will receive one private 30-minute coaching session with Jean following the retreat, to be used within 60 days of our time together in Bayfield.

This session creates dedicated space to explore what has continued to surface, where you may feel challenged in carrying your retreat intentions into everyday life, and what you want to nurture moving forward.

Value: $250

Post-Retreat Integration Guide

Following the retreat, you’ll receive a dedicated integration guide created to help you carry what you experienced in Bayfield back into your everyday life.

Through guided reflection, grounding practices, intentional next steps, resources, and continued journaling prompts, you’ll be encouraged to explore what has changed, what you want to protect, and what you are ready to practice differently moving forward.

Value: $300

Six-Month Private Retreat Portal

You’ll also receive six months of access to our private Manifest Your Magic retreat portal, where you can return to a collection of meditations, guided practices, retreat resources, and integration tools whenever you need additional support.

Value: $250

Our hope is that Manifest Your Magic becomes more than a beautiful weekend away.

It is designed to be an experience that begins before you arrive, deepens while we are together, and continues unfolding long after you return home.

Your complete retreat agenda will be emailed prior to the retreat, along with your workbook, preparation details, and everything you need to arrive feeling supported and ready for the experience.

Jean believes deeply in the individual power of manifestation and the importance of creating space to listen to what is already within us.
