Òran Mór - The Path of the Initiate
An Alchemical Journey through the Mysteries of Avalon
August 21–23, 2026 | Glastonbury & Stonehenge
In Celtic mystical tradition, Òran Mór - “The Great Song” or “Great Melody” - is the primordial vibration through which all life exists in harmony. Wells, hills, stones, dragons, myths and ancestors, all participate in this living cosmic song.
This immersive three-day retreat invites you into an initiatory journey through the sacred landscapes of Glastonbury and Stonehenge. These spaces become Portals for us to remember, the mystical world of Avalon. Through myth, ritual, dreamwork, sound, storytelling and dragon wisdom, we go through the alchemical stages of transformation:

“I took part in Annette's Lunar Path and it was a big blessing and healing journey with a group of amazing women. I learned a lot about Dream Healing tools, Divination work and different exercises which can help us to let go of unconscious patterns. We received different initiations and meditations mostly from the Pleiades and got the chance to connect with them on a deeper level. During the time I began to connect with my dreams in a completely new way and to transform things in my life with the new-gained wisdom of my dreams. The course and the outcome was truly magical and I'm looking forward to take part in more Trainings from Annette.”

“I highly recommend working with Annette to anyone interested in delving deep into the wisdom of their soul by following the knowledge of the most ancient civilizations on earth. The Lunar Path immersion opened doors for me that had been tightly shut for decades, allowing me to see aspects of myself I didn't know existed. The course was jam packed with techniques, wisdom, rituals and practices taught by several shamanic cultures, all extremely well guided and held in a balanced and harmonious space by Annette. All the participants went through different processes, but as a facilitator she was very good at holding the space for us and allowing for sharing, without going too far off track, which I highly appreciated. All the material was also prepared in beautiful written form for us to work with, so your integration process and practice can continue far past the time of direct training. Beyond the specific things we learned in the Lunar Path, I was often in awe of Annette's knowledge of our world's tribes and civilizations, history and spirituality, as well as her dedication to the shamanic practices and continuous development of these. She is as serious about her craft as it gets, but what's truly unique to her is that she's also very humorous, bringing a much needed ease and grace to what can be very intense experiences. I can only praise her work and urge you to embark on the journey she offers, you won't regret it.”

“Annette shares her vast knowledge generously and I went home incredibly blessed. The initiations touched me deeply and the multitude of exercises gave me valuable insights for my life and my inner journey. It is hard to find words for the fireworks of insights, magic and miracles within the intensive seminar. I am very grateful to have met Annette and her wonderful work and can only recommend the seminar to anyone who is looking for authentic shamanic knowledge and a teacher with a great sense of humor and a creative, new approach to imparting it.”

Working with Annette is a true gift to one's soul, an adventure journey to one's self. Wheather in Conscious Dreaming, Storytelling or on the Lunar Path, every seminar and every individual session has helped me to come a little closer to my true self, to push aside the veil a little more and to look behind it, to release my creativity in unexpected ways and with wonderful ease. It is wonderful that self-empowerment always plays a central role in Annette's teachings. She gives the participants the necessary tools to continue on their own path in a self-determined way and to grow. I am infinitely grateful for everything I have been able to experience with Annette's help so far and I am looking forward to everything that is yet to come.

Dear Annette, thank you for sharing your knowledge of the crystal mesa with us. It was a touching time together with you and the group. And thank you for the recording, which you made available to us and which now enables us to be always again "original" outside of space and time, in order to deepen the experiences or also to be allowed to discover new gifts in the repeated listening. I find it very touching how differently the star energies feel to me, how gently and yet powerfully they can enliven and activate my system. And I am looking forward to the time ahead of me and all the experiences and gifts that will still be revealed to me. Urpichay Sonqoy - see you soon, at a new class with you and the others, with familiar and new faces....m

I would like to thank Annette from the bottom of my heart for the workshop of the Pleiades initiations, which touched me very much. She is really able to draw the true path for seekers, because in her rituals the essence is transported, which is independent of what shamanic culture they come from. It hits the core and allows deep experience, brings me into my light, into my balance.

You will be, too.” Annette, your presence is a gift. How you hold space for us women - it’s wowy, awww and “oh my gosh”. Vibrant. My heart sings: “Thank you, love.”

The Lunar Path was an amazing journey of remembrance, connection and sisterhood. All initiations of the different stars felt so unique and were accompanied by a matching soulful meditation experience. I learned a lot about rituals, energy work, archetypes and myself. The journey to Avalon was the Grand finale of our journey. Visting ancient sites and natural wonders, I could feel the magic unfolding. Element(al)s, ancestors and keepers of all kind and shapes accompanied our work on that pilgrimage. After that wonderful journey I have a strong feeling of completeness and arrival. I totally trust my powers since then. With Annette you can feel save in all realms and dimensions. I would recommend her work any time! New List Item

‘Did you know that 800 years ago, Imagination was considered a real world where you could meet people and all kinds of beings? The World of Imagination and Dreams was known to exist between the World of Mind and the World of Matter. It was considered just as real as the other two Worlds. But when we started separating Mind from Matter, Imagination became the opposite of reality. It was reduced to mere fantasy or hallucination.“
