Dreaming the Dragon Awake Friday 1st May - Mon 4th May 2026

Stoke your inner Dragon’s fire on this dreaming retreat filled with ritual feasts, wild walks in the Mossy Trail, swims, steams and rest in the wild Quarry Spa. The experience will be inspiring, nourishing, joyful and lots of fun!

• Learn the art of lucid dreaming

• Discover how these dreams can kindle your creative life

• Navigate and trail-blaze new pathways

• Overcome your fears and limitations

• Express your experiences through visual arts, movement, performance and games

We invite you to imagine what it might mean to "marry your Dragon"—to get closer to the shadowy parts of yourself. We will explore practices designed to dissolve inner conflict, cultivating instead a playful dance between dualities: inner and outer, human and more-than-human, and active and receptive energies, all to support fluidity, integration, and self-knowledge.

During the retreat, we will delight in ritual feasts, swim in the lake, steam in the Wild Quarry Spa, and journey through the enchanting Mossy Trail. Our playground is the Owl Queen’s Mossy Realm—Retallack Woodlands in Cornwall—a truly magical place where nature, myth, and art converge. Through inspiring and embodied encounters, we will learn the life-changing arts of Dream Incubation and Lucid Dreaming through experimentation, play, and sleep!

Your guides are Trix Robertson, Artist, Storyteller, and Mistress of Ceremonies and Dreams & Miranda Jones, Artist, Arts Psychotherapist and Lucid Dreaming Facilitator. 

What to expect:

Mossy Crow is all about creation, imagination, and play, inviting people back into the freedom of a child exploring nature. We offer a supportive and inspiring space for you to experiment and fully express yourself.

We will guide you through the foundations of lucid dreaming and dream incubation with day and night time practices, cultivating a nourishing relationship with your inner world.

We will work with nature connection, visual arts, movement, performance, and games in groups, with ample time for solitary reflection and deep rest. The entire experience will unfold within the graceful embrace of granite, water, meadow, and forest.

Feedback from previous guests:

“I’m still resonating with the gifts of dreaming. Such an inspirational time. What I am noticing is how much is unfolding as I put what I learned into practice” (AB)

“So important in these times to step out of “time” and into “community”. Trix and Miranda created such a nurturing and safe space that we were all instant family and were able to go so deep. This work feels so important as we create new pathways into the new world we are all co-creating. To let go of the known and to step into the unknown with a safety net is a glorious gift - thank you so much” (RG)

“I arrived at the lucid dream workshop at the end of a long season of overextension. Linear time had me in its jaws: deadlines, decisions, depletion. And then—this pause. This portal. Held in a nature-steeped sanctuary, guided by wise and attuned facilitators, I stepped out of the clock and into something ancient and remembering. Time softened. Dream and wake blurred. The workshop wasn’t just about dreaming—it was about a different relationship to aliveness itself. A way of remembering how to listen. I found myself metabolizing what the hustle had buried. The cadence of the trees, the slow breath of the earth, the spiral logic of the dreamworld—all of it reminded me that healing does not obey calendars. That restoration is not earned. That time, when held well, can be sacred and cyclical and deeply alive. If you are caught in the grind—of leadership, caregiving, identity, or survival—this is a rare invitation to step out of the machine and into the mythic. I left with more than insight; I left with rhythm. With spaciousness. With time that loved me back.” (GR)
