TRADITIONAL CAMINO IN CARCASSONNE (South of France)
Similar to the mystical gnostic forces available for consciousness upgrades on the old Spanish roads (El Camino de Santiago de Compostela)—the old Cathar Caminos and Knights Templar Fortresses of the Languedoc hold the bioavailability for leveling up, in both defiance and self-reliance, so that we can defy systems of control and think for ourselves. This is not a stance of duality against authority, it is EMBODYING the old ways of resonance and enlightenment for being comfortable enough in one’s own skin to stand firmly in self-gnosis and earned liberation.
This is a 5-day deep dive into Gnosticism, Catharism, spiritual ascension, direct connection, and finding one’s own inner voice and outer mission. We are using these particular sacred sites to activate defiance and discernment and to viscerally become confident and comfortable in our own skin.
This trip includes traditional Camino hiking and long daytrip excursions to holy sites with sometimes steep terrain. This is not a vacation, but a spiritual expedition. It requires physical and spiritual exertion. But is a powerful gateway to self-liberation.
Inclusions
This Expedition includes course work, accommodations, and transportation, but DOES NOT include food and beverages due to rigorous travel (and no catering). We will eat lunch and dinners on the go in between Camino commutes.
Suggestions
If possible, we recommend flying into Toulouse airport the day before (May 8) for a day of acclimation, so the body is ready for pilgrimage.
We highly recommend bringing only a backpack or small duffle for this adventure so that checking into hotels at each city is easy. Please pack casual and comfortable hiking clothes that can get dirty or wet (at holy waters and at castles). Nothing fancy is needed for this trip.

Pilgrimage Purpose: CALLING IN THE ANCIENTS AND THE HELPERS (above and below)
We will visit a pre-historic cave hidden in a hillside with 29,000-year-old paintings and petroglyphs of hands, spotted horses, and mystical symbols.
With tree roots that are 3 stories high, we will ignite a creative spark by having our opening meditation link us to the crystals and trees of this cave, forming a “million-year kiss” between the cave ceiling and floor. Our first Camino will focus on inner metamorphosis and a strong invitation for change.
Then we will visit the medieval castle and Templar town of San Cirque Lapopie for “the best desert in all of Europe” and a Camino activation overlooking a powerful river valley to bond us to ancestors and Artivists of lore.
