"It was such an amazing life-altering experience, so good that I'm going back in 2025 to experience a deeper connection at the Autumn Equinox.
Where do I even begin? It's truly challenging to articulate how extraordinary the entire experience was, from being able to fall apart emotionally with relative strangers that you instinctively knew were going to hold you safely, to being guided through connections to ancient energies at the different Temples that Malta has to offer, to mind-boggling wonderment of chanting in the Hypogeum and sharing space with spirits older than time, it was all just amazing and I highly recommend this Quest to anyone feeling a calling to witness or expand their experiences, or to simply embrace the magic of sound healing and energies."

Hello lovelies. I have just 1 space remaining on my beautiful Maltese Temple Quest. This runs from 5pm on the 17th June to the 22nd of June until midday. 

 

Before I go into the particulars, some of you may be wondering why I am offering the Maltese Temple Quest in these turbulent times. Maybe it seems frivolous on the surface. I can assure you that it is not. There is a deep purpose to it.

​

This is the side to Malta that not everyone knows about. Ancient Temple remains, some of the oldest in the world that carry the energies and history of what used to be a matriarchal society, aligned with the stars and societies that revered women and children and the earth.

As the World awakens and stirs amongst all the violence, destruction, top heavy rule and gaslighting that is now being shown openly; the death throws of a patriarchal, non-sustainable ego-centric, destructive model that has dominated the last few thousand years, the need and longing for a more sustainable, more peace filled, more heart led, children, earth and women centred model is starting to call its song. A visceral stirring, a remembering, a siren call emerging from deep within. The mother that focusses on a symbiotic relationship with compassion and empathy and inner strength, protecting those that are vulnerable and creating flow.

​

The Maltese Temple Quest will light those embers of remembrance, reconnecting you to that voice of truth, that soul and heart voice, that longing for enduring change within ourselves and for Planet Earth. It will reconnect you to and nurture your sovereign feminine, balancing the masculine. It will unveil and fortify your strengths and your power. It will also allow space for laughter and relaxation, for processing, integration and healing. You will come back feeling lighter, clearer, rejuvenated and having made strong connections and friendships. You may feel more aligned to your vision and may have left some old programming behind, reconnecting to your truth, your voice, your purpose. 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Part of my role is to help others awaken and free their voice so that they can sound their soul. They say that words are spells. I believe that the sound of your soul can be heard in the vibrations and frequencies of your voice. So in Malta we will be doing some work around this in tandem with the Temples and their energies.

And within all of this serious 'work' or development, there needs to be playfulness, laughter and time out. Those of you that have previously experienced my work know that part of my role here is to bring that in, to bring in the humour, the laughter. It is one of the best medicines to raise the vibration ❤

The retreat will be a beautiful exploration of some of the amazing Temples on Malta and we will also have a trip over to Gozo to my favourite Temple, Gigantia. The 2nd oldest standing Temple remains in the World.

Deeply aligned to feminine energies, these Temples and their energies will allow and encourage a healing dive into our own femininity, bringing forth the wisdom and strength that we inherently possess and balancing with softness. We will explore using sound, meditation and tapping into the energies of each site. I encourage you to bring a rattle or your drum.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Many of the Temples were inherently inhabited by Priestesses and their acolytes, I believe in the times when we lived in peaceful matriarchal societies. When I am there, I feel the matriarchal energies very strongly, especially in Gigantia. In this year of the horse, I feel the calling to rekindle this matriarchal way of being as everything we hold dear is being destroyed. Perhaps in our lifetime we will not see the positive changes of a centralised, matriarchal society that puts children and the earth first, but we can surely begin that process and filter it down to our upcoming ancestral lines. For me, my experiences in Malta and Gozo are of a deep spiritual and energetic connection, linking into women that cared for the earth and their societies, the decision makers, the peacekeepers. It has given me and continues to give me strength and aid in the healing of my own feminine wounds and looking more deeply into what and how I can contribute to a more matriarchaly centred world. Indeed, all 7 women that came with us on the first retreat in 2024 had life changing and profound experiences with us and with Malta and Gozo.

Malta in June can be very hot. In light of this, most Temple visits and experiences will be in the mornings until around 1pm and then we will adjourn for the afternoon. In the afternoons, you have free time to sleep, wander around, assimilate or come with me to the beach to swim, cleanse and relax/assimilate/process. I will be very careful not to overload you as it can be intense and we found that people needed the time to digest what they had experienced and to rest. I am not someone that marches you from one thing to another and you come back to the UK exhausted with everything blurring into one! Some people experience deep healing processes during the time on the retreat. My aim is to be as gentle as possible and to allow time for processing.

This is an alcohol and substance free retreat.

Food: A help yourself breakfast will be provided on each day as well as a simple packed lunch. Fruit and water will also be provided during our outings. Teas and coffee will be on tap at the accommodation. In the evenings, we will eat together in the accommodation on 3 out of the 5 nights and then you are free on 2 of the nights to go off and eat out in some of the wonderful restaurants. Sunday night we will go out to eat at a restaurant as a closing meal together (each individual pays for the meal they choose). The last time we did this, there was a fabulous procession and festa going on in Rabat, so hopefully it will be on again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Accommodation will be in Rabat. Sharing a twin room in a lovely traditional Maltese house a short walk from the centre of Rabat and the ancient silent city of Mdina.

On the evening of the day we spend sunrise in Imnjdra Temple for Solstice, we will be going to a sacred space I found on some cliffs where I will give you a sound bath and healing through vocables. Everyone experienced profound healing and shifts after this. I am sure there used to be something sacred built there or where sacred rituals were performed. It feels like a warm, welcoming coming home for me. I feel like I have performed rituals there before using healing and sound and magik.

Another evening we will visit the ancient city of Rabat and Mdina. It really is beautiful. And on another evening, we will have a circle and do some work an a around what we have experienced so far and end with a channelled meditation.

During our visits to the Temples, I will also give you meditations to help you connect to the Temple and her energies. We may do some sounding if there are not too many other people around.

Wednesday evening will be a meal together and settling into the accommodation and getting to know one another and then an early night's sleep ready for the retreat.

On the Thursday morning we will go to some gardens and I will initiate the retreat with a medicine walk where you will start to connect with the land and the energy of Malta and your intentions. On Monday morning after breakfast we will do the same and have a closing circle.

The price is £1350 for 3 participants or £1150 for 4 participants. This includes transport to all the sites, beach, Gozo etc. Entry tickets, 3 evening meals, breakfasts, packed lunches, water, fruit, accommodation, healing work, sound bath and my fees.  The deposit is £550 and is non refundable. The remainder may be paid in 2 instalments in the last week of April and then May. If you cancel or flights are cancelled, you will claim the costs of this retreat through your travel insurance.

Not included: your flights which you must arrange, transport to the accommodation from the airport, money for 2 evening meals, your spending money, any extra nights you wish to stay on Malta. There are flights from Heathrow with Air Malta that align perfectly with the timings of this retreat. Air Malta has perfect flights from Heathrow that arrive in the afternoon of the 17th and leave in the afternoon of the 22nd. My current participants have booked these flights.

I have kept the costs to you as low as possible but this means that I need all spaces to be booked to make this viable. 

Please Whatsapp me on 07881955078 to express your interest I will send you a booking form and Ts&Cs  ❤ Thank you ❤

"This really was a journey of transformation for me! It's difficult to put into words everything that transpired for me. This quest was a beautiful blend of group experience and personal growth, as a mother travelling with out her child, as a wife exploring without her husband as a sista travelling with kin. I learned so much from Faye about my own shamanic practice, making tools for sound baths from the natural world around her. Faye's voice has a way of transporting you to worlds beyond and connecting deeply to the spirits of the land, the women that came before us, walking in their footsteps, feeling into their presence, their purpose.
Visiting those places off the tourist map, where the locals bathe in the cool waters with their families , walking down winding ally ways to local delis to taste the meats and cheeses. I deeply deeply connected to this land to the temples to these women I traveled with, bonds that will last a life time. Memories to treasure forever and a new way of thinking, Almost 6 months later and I'm still integrating, downloading, learning. What a trip!!!!!!!!"

​"I felt huge energies ( as did everyone else) there was a feeling of us helping our ancestors heal but also drawing on there energies for us to use for our healings with ourselves and others. There were many personal moments of feeling very powerfully that I had received important guidance and information for my future work. The days were so beautifully planned with the most amazing people in our group to share our experiences with. The time was unforgettable and worth every penny.
If you are feeling a calling then it is because you need to connect with these energies also, you won't regret it."
