MONTSEGUR, FRANCE 2010....7th to 11th October
THE SEARCH FOR THE BELOVED...AND THE PORTAL TO THE STARS
Celia Fenn and the Starchild Team in the Languedoc for the 10/10/10 Stargate!
It gives me great pleasure to announce that we will once again be gathering in Montsegur in the Languedoc for the Second Sacred Rose Gathering of the Family of the Sacred Rose. In addition, we will be celebrating the powerful energy of the first of three major Stargates that will culminate in December 0f 2012. This is the 10/10/10 Stargate on the 10th of October. We invite you to join us at this Sacred Gathering where we will celebrate the Grail Codes and the Teachings of Mary Magdalene and Yeshua on the energy of the Twin Flame Union.
Montsegur is the ideal setting for this Celebration of the Life and Work of the Magdalene. Montsegur is remembered in history as the place where the Cathars were finally defeated by the Catholics at end of the Albigensian Crusade in the 13th Century. The Cathars were the last followers of the teachings of the Christ Magdalene. So, it is only fitting that this should be the setting for the Flowering of the Sacred Rose and the recovery of the Teachings of the Sacred Rose.
The Theme this year will be "The Search for the Beloved....and the Portal to the Stars". This is based on the ideas in the poems of Rumi:
Lovers don't finally
meet somewhere
They're in each other all along
If you do not find me within
Then you will not find me at all
For I have been with you from the Beginning
A thousand half-loves
must be forsaken to take
one whole heart home
These enigmatic poems form the basis for our exploration and celebration of the nature of Divine Love through the experience of the activation of the Grail Codes and the Search for th Golden Grail of Light.
It is only by feeling and experiencing the Essence of our Divinity through Divine Love that we can reach out for our inheritance in the Stars! We are all Searching for the Beloved....that we may find our way Home to Who We Are......Divine Light in Human Form.
And, in this experience of Sacred Love and Relationship, we prepare ourselves for the experience of this energy in Human Form through the manifestation of Twin Flame and Twin Soul Partnerships.
This Retreat will allow you to explore these themes in your own life both in Group Gatherings and Activities, and in the quiet times when you will be able to be alone in the magnificent setting of the Pyrenees and the forests and rivers of the Languedoc. It is a very beautiful and clear energy that supports spiritual growth and exploration.
The Venue
Montsegur is a small village at the foot of the Mountain on which the "chateau" or fortress of Montsegur is situated. When we hold the Sacred Rose Retreat, we "take over" the village for 5 days. Accomodation is in the Hotel Costes for hotel type rooms, or in the Backpackers for the more basic experience, and we can also organize private cottages if there is need. Meals are taken as a group in the Hotel Costes, and are Organic with choices for vegetarians, vegans and people with special needs diets. The Daily gatherings are held in the Council Room of the Mairie, and there is free time for relaxation, exploration and personal meditation.You will need to make your own way to Montsegur. To fly in, the nearest airports are Toulouse or Carcasonne in France, or Barcelona in Spain. From there you would need to drive or arrange transport to Montsegur.

The first Sacred Rose Retreat was held in October of 2008. It was a great success and a very special experience for all of us. This is the Group Photo, taken in the Mairie hall:
