The Magdalenes Retreat 2025, Glastonbury, UK

25 - 27 April 2025, Glastonbury, UK

A Divine Feminine & sacred retreat to the ancient lands of Avalon and the Heart Chakra of the Earth

About Glastonbury, UK

High energy place often associated with the Heart Chakra of the Earth

About Glastonbury, endless books and movies (“The Mists of Avalon” and all the books and movies on the legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table) have been written. It is a place of truly magnificent energy and you feel it the moment you step foot inside the town.

From the spectacular and awe-inspiring Glastonbury Abbey (the site where the legendary King Arthur’s tomb is and where the stories of King Arthur, Queen Guinevere and the Knights of the Round Table abound), to the Magdalene Fields, to The Chalice Well Gardens (that contains natural springs with highly beneficial properties, dedicated to honoring the Divine Feminine on Earth) and the great Tor hill with St. Michael’s Tower (under which the Earth’s ley lines / energy meridians of Archangel Michael and Mother Mary intersect, bringing the traveler to the frequency of insights and peace and clarity), Glastonbury in the heart of England is a a true gem to discover.

Over the space of 3 magical days, we will journey with the energy of the Heart, of Spring & Renewal and of Healing, Growth & Loving Service in the world, as we plant the seeds for a fertile and prosperous 2025, celebrating together the Creative energies of the Spring of 2025.

The Magdalenes Retreat 2025 is a call to all women with a heart-felt mission:

  • Women ready to become birthers of a new reality, a deeply conscious & more loving way of living

  • Women with a big calling and path of service & leadership in life

  • Generous & loving women who understand that now is their time: their time to rise, to no longer hold back from their dreams and to walk in sisterhood and in mutual support of each other and of their missions in this lifetime

  • Women who feel the sweeping change happening on Earth right now and who are ready to embody their unique Divine Feminine codes, wisdom and to lead and create from that place

  • Women who are ready to bloom into their full potential & unapologetic expression

Places we will be visiting and holding sessions in:

  • The Glastonbury Abbey

    The Glastonbury Abbey is a place where the energy and the Union of the Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine are tangibly felt. The Heart energy is very palpable here and it was one of the places that has had the Most profound impacts on me and many people who visited.
    The Glastonbury Abbey is connected to legends to a degree that is unparalleled by any other abbey in England. Since Medieval times, the Abbey has had legendary status as it is linked to Joseph of Arimathea (the uncle of Jesus, who lived and walked these lands) and King Arthur and his court of the Knights of the Round Table. It also has a beautiful Lady Chapel dedicated to Mary Magdalene, were there is space for meditation and contemplation.

  • The Tor hill & St. Michael's Tower

    Glastonbury Tor, on the mystical “Isle of Avalon”, is a truly iconic feature of Somerset’s landscape. At 158 metros it rises high above Avalon (Glastonbury) and it can be seen from across the county and beyond. On its summit stands St Michael’s tower, which adds further to the dramatic effect of the Tor at sunrise, sunset and on misty mornings.

    A refreshing walk and hike up to
    the top blesses you with a breath-taking view, all the while feeling the heightened energy from underneath the Earth (as this is where the ley lines of Archangel Michael and Mother Mary intersect).
    It is a place for feeling into and envisioning your high potential future, all the while feeing safe and guarded by the loving energies of the land, anchoring it all deep on Earth.

  • The Chalice Well Gardens

    The natural springs, from deep within the Earth, are a living sanctuary dedicated to the Divine Feminine.

    Chalice Well is one of Britain's most ancient wells, nestling in the Vale of Avalon between the famous Glastonbury Tor and Chalice Hill. Surrounded by beautiful gardens and orchards, it is a living sanctuary in which the visitor can experience the quiet healing of this sacred place. Over three acres of peace.

    For over two thousand years this has been a place where people have gathered to drink the waters and find solace, peace and inspiration.

    This is also the place where, opening the Akashic Records, in deep peace and contemplation, I connected several times and received guidance from the Magdalenes, Rose Lineage Priestesses.

Your Magdalenes Retreat 2025 Guide:

Alina Cristina Buteica, Founder of the Divine Feminine School “Inner Goddess” & celebrated author on Feminine Leadership:

Alina is a sacred femininity & conscious leadership coach, as well as a celebrated feminine wisdom author. She is the creator of Illuminated Essence, Goddess Retreats and experiences, for women to step into their power, gifts and radiance.


She is honored to share more than 15 years of growth and insights with you, having transitioned from corporate life (in Africa and Europe) to entrepreneurship and working with hundreds of clients all across the world to help them reach a place of balance, inner mastery and expression of their gifts and leadership.

Alina’s own experience with burnout is what has formed her medicine and love of a holistic approach to life.

She combines mindset leadership coaching with her certifications as an energy healer in 7 different techniques: Breathwork, Theta Healing, Akashic Records Readings, Access Consciousness, Reiki and KA (Kundalini Activations). She is a guardian of the sacred feminine codes and Goddess sacred knowledge, having been initiated in ancient Priestess Schools and created online and offline offerings for women to connect to and activate their inner feminine mastery & radiance.

I believe we live in times where the feminine and masculine energies are meant to come back into balance again and a great part of that will have to do with women owning their inner power, intuition, sacred gifts, mind-body-heart-Soul connection and expressing their voices in the world —> through projects, companies, collaborations and visionary offerings. The feminine energy is so nourishing, loving, wise and deeply needed in these times of transition for all of humanity.

Alina is also the co-author of the Amazon best selling book “Ignite Your Feminine Leadership” (2019).

Participants’ Love:

  • „My experience with Alina was magic. It happened almost a week ago, but I can still feel that energy and presence. It was like coming home, to my own self. I felt love and acceptance. And from that moment on, the feeling stayed within me, and I only need to tap in, whenever I need it. The akashic reading performed by Alina gave me a sense of belonging, of my own worth, it helped me connect the pieces missing and I can honestly say that it forever changed my life. I feel now more confident, more aware of Who I really am. I feel the support of my Guides, my dear Tribe, it was such a blessing to get to know them and establish a connection with them. So, with all my heart, I recommend this journey. If you get to a point in your life where you need guidance and support, than taking this small but profound step with Alina can be exactly what you also need. Thank you. I am very grateful for this immense opportunity!” (Cristiana Alexandra, Romania)

  • "By tapping into our powers we become the Queens that we are! I learned so much about how to move forward and cultivate the queen, inner lover and priestess within us. The course has weekly meditations to clear our energy and tap into new insights and possibilities. The modules are very well thought out and explained by Alina with great examples for better understanding. This course is set up to grow into your spiritual path and also use this into your professional carreer. By doing the assignments weekly you will tap into your life purpose and discover new ways to bring this out to the world. Very beautiful course, I recommend it highly!" (Loes de Vreugd, The Netherlands)

  • "This experience has provided such valuable insights and has awakened me, in the most beautiful sense. As I shared in the Q&A's, as I started to nurture and pay attention to these amazing Divine Feminine Archetypes, a lot of things shifted in my life and I am very grateful. Another thing I loved is the sense of community and meeting wonderful ladies with inspiring stories! Thank you Alina, for your commitment and dedication!" (Sidonia, UK)
