Now is your chance – the Suntree Retreat is a life-changing event for Naturalistic Pagans!
Join us for a LIVE gathering of Atheopagans (a type of Naturalistic Pagan) at the magnificent La Foret retreat center in Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA, August 21- August 24, 2026!
Presented by The Atheopagan Society, this 4-day, 3-night retreat will feature workshops, rituals and lots of socializing time in beautiful spaces and around the fire. The facility includes a magnificent meeting space, the Ponderosa Lodge; a fire circle; a beautiful labyrinth and more. I was there for the previous Atheopagan retreats in 2022 and 2024 – what a treasured part of my life! I’m definitely coming back for this one! Plus you can be there for my workshop using molten metal for divination! Info here, and the link to register here!
