Come celebrate our third and final retreat in the Temple House series. The Grove of the Light of Erin is happy to welcome you to join us for a week in Ireland for a deep immersion in the lore of Ireland and her people at Temple House - an 1,100-acre sanctuary of ancient forests, fairy mounds, a Knights Templar castle, a private lake, walled gardens, wetlands, rivers, ruins, and miles of meandering forested trails.​

Temple House stewards the crossroads of multiple lay lines and was home to the Knights Templar as their westernmost European outpost.  In continuum, the Perceval family has been stewarding Temple House for nearly 400 years.  The estate sits at the center of the ancient cauldron and grail mysteries of Ireland near Sligo, which is also the oldest human-inhabited area in Ireland. 

 

We are renting the entire house and estate for this immersion.  We are welcoming 17-22 amazing souls to join us at Temple House.  Feeling the timeless call of the Light of Erin and the deep mysteries of Ireland? Join us in September 2025! 

Also consider joining us for the pilgrimage walk from Drogheda to Croagh Patrick (Sep 12-30) or also just from Rathcroghan to Croagh Patrick (Sep 22-30).

 

At Temple House, we will not only hear more from local seanchaí, or lore keepers, and musicians, but we will also experience directly via walks into the sacred landscape, learn/share songs/stories, participate in ritual, dive into the Summerlands via pathworkings/meditations, listen to the land, and oh so much more!  In year one, we walked and communed with the sites of the Cailleach.  In year two, we communed with the sites of the Morrígu.  In this final year of the triad, we will ascend the sacred places of Áine.

 

We will share in morning experiences together in the Great Hall, including qigong, yoga, dance, and breathwork.  Afternoons will be either free, or with optional day trips onsite or to regional sacred sites such as Ben Bulben, Carrowkeel, Knocknarea, Mullanashee, Knocknashee, and others.  Other options for afternoon free time include wondering the estate, signing up for a massage or healing arts session from one of the members of the Grove of the Light of Erin, taking a rowboat out on Templehouse Lake, or participating in short immersion workshops such as ogham-tree identification or traditional crafts.
