Sleep of the Ancestors:

A 4-Day Dream Incubation Retreat at Avebury

Walk the Path of the Ancestors. Sleep beneath the Stones. Awaken to the Wisdom of your Dreams.

Ancestral Dreaming in the Heart of Ancient Britain

At the centre of the Avebury stone circle, one of the most powerful and mysterious sacred landscapes in the world, lies an ancient current of dreaming.
For four days, you are invited to step into that current. Guided by experienced practitioners, an oracle, and the rhythms of the land itself, you’ll undertake a sacred pilgrimage of body, spirit, and dream.

This retreat reawakens the ancient British practice of sleep incubation, the art of dreaming with intention for healing, guidance, and renewal. Through walking meditations, ritual anointing, elemental ceremonies, and a night of sacred sleep within or beneath the stones, you’ll open the gateways of vision and rediscover the deep language of your own subconscious wisdom.

A Journey Through Time and Spirit

• The Path of the Ancestors Pilgrimage
  Follow the ceremonial route through the West Kennet Avenue to Silbury Hill and the West Kennet Long Barrow, making offerings and prayers along the way.

• Ritual Anointing with Sacred Oils
  Each participant receives a full-body anointing using ancient British herbal oils, a rite of purification and awakening that honours both body and spirit.

• Dream Incubation under the Stars
  On the third night, you’ll enter the dream sanctuary. Weather permitting, participants may choose to sleep outdoors within the circle, under the watchful presence of the stones, while practitioners keep vigil.

• Oracle Dream Interpretation
  In the morning, our oracle meets with each dreamer individually to interpret symbols, messages, and themes revealed through the night.

• Post-Retreat Dream Reflection Report
  Within the following week, you’ll receive a personalised written reflection of your dream experience, insights, and suggested practices to continue your journey at home.

Why Avebury

Avebury is a living temple, a place where land, spirit, and sky meet. Its avenues and earthworks form a ritual landscape that has been used for over 4,000 years for ceremony, healing, and initiation.
Sleeping and dreaming here allows you to commune directly with the energy of the ancestors who built it.
