OWN YOUR SHADOWS, OPEN YOUR WINGS AND FLY!

“You wish for a flame? Search in the ashes.” (~ Kabbalah)

This 8-day process is an intimate journey of deep transformation that goes through the shadows, and into the magical being that you are called to be but do not yet dare.

The Caterpillar has to let go of its form and functions, lose itself completely, and become goo inside the chrysalis. There, it loses its identity and self-image. Only then do the dormant Imaginal Cells start to multiply and form the magical creature that will hatch with mesmerizing wings. The wings of the butterfly that is in you are the wings of your soul. But to grow them, one needs to first face deep shadows that were held in the dark and let go.

There - in the pit of dark emotions and shame - is where the sacred sparks of your genius hide, and when ready, they start to show you a new way to live. The way of the Black Butterfly!

"Black Butterfly is a deep initiation journey that every human has to go through" (~ participant)

Black Butterfly is an advanced process. It offers a rare opportunity to work within an advanced group with materials that many are afraid to touch. Many people speak of love, while underneath the surface, shadows are driving them beneath their awareness. For those who are ready to face those shadows and reclaim their innocent wholeness, this journey is a breath of fresh air. We will feel a lot, wake up, learn a lot, cry a lot, and laugh a lot.

WHAT TO EXPECT

This work is confronting. We have to be willing to look in the mirror at our authentic face hidden under the mask of acceptable social behaviors. We will meet and explore "dark emotions" and learn how they are all important and useful for our evolutionary path. Harnessing the creative life force of Eros, we will connect spirit and matter to become co-creators of our own life, instead of victims of circumstances. The more aware we are of our shadows, the more embodied we become. Shadow work is, in fact, the highest form of light work, as it requires the utmost unconditional love and compassion.

Black Butterfly is an initiation journey from trauma to initiation. From victim mentality to co-creator. From drama to empowerment.

Important Note

This retreat is NOT suitable for beginners in the field of Tantra or Sexual Shamanism. It is also NOT meant for trauma therapy. It is edgy work and meant for people who know themselves to be capable of working with potentially triggering material without losing their center or blaming others. For those people, this journey is a rare opportunity for transformation and growth.

ABOUT PELE & KATARA

OHAD PELE

We are privileged to have the internationally acclaimed wisdom teachings of Ohad Pele, who has been teaching Kabbalah, Sacred Sexuality, Love, and Conscious Relating for 30 years.

Pele was part of the lead faculty members who helped pioneer ISTA and served in its global governance for five years. He comes from a background of being a Kabbalist Rabbi and a scholar for many years. Pele sees himself more as an artist of transformation work than a "facilitator" or "teacher". He is a musician, an artist, and the author of several books, including "KEDESHA — The Return of the Priestesses of Love", a page-turner that reveals a historic conspiracy that changed our world and brought an end to the ancient Temple of Love in Jerusalem of the 7th century BCE.

Pele's work is focused on opening people to sacred wonder and guiding them into their depth, embracing the wholeness of human experience and moving towards the creation of a new society based on love and win-win solutions.

KATARA

Katara is a force of Epic Love. She vibrates Love, Freedom, and Empowerment — all combined as one evolutionary force for healing, transformation, and awakening.

With degrees in engineering and 1.5 decades working in Silicon Valley as an engineer, people manager, and leadership coach at major tech companies, Katara has applied her sharp analytical mind to developing emotional and relational tools and technologies to bring about the most efficient and effective transformations.

Katara guides journeys of self-discovery and reclaiming life force, helping people uncover their hidden potential and embrace their inherent divinity, all while harnessing the epic powers of Love and Eros.

“Sexuality is a gate to the Divine realms, but it is still unrecognized as so by the current cultures. In the ancient Temple Arts, sexuality was practiced as a key to open portals into other dimensions but this knowledge was mostly forgotten. Sacred Sexuality is a living temple, where we can give our separate egos as an offering on the altar, expand in love, download visions, create magic, heal traumas and surrender”. – Ohad Pele

Lilith and the Integration of the Dark Feminine

Online live course by Ohad Pele and Dr. Marc Gafni

*Wednesdays, November 6th - January 8th |8pm CET |
9pm Israel or Turkey | 2pm UST | 11am PST

*Schedule is flexible. If a class cannot take place on one of these dates, we will extend the course duration accordingly.

We will dedicate an entire course of ten sessions focusing on "Lilith" and the concept of the shadow as explored in lesser-known writings of Lurianic Kabbalah, along with many other diverse sources that we have gathered over the years. This will be a very rich course, and I am excited about it.

Twenty-five years ago (wow… how time flies), we wrote a book on these topics called Who’s Afraid of Lilith, which was published by Modan and has long since been out of print. The book was the product of a study partnership I had at that time with my friend Mordechai Gafni. Since then, both Gafni and I have been through a lot. Our paths diverged for more than a decade, and we’ve only recently started learning and creating together again. In the 25 years since we wrote the book about Lilith in Lurianic Kabbalah, we’ve learned a lot about Eros, sexuality, shadows, fears, and more—not just from books, but from life itself. The special course on Lilith will be taught by both Gafni and myself.

The course will be in English and will consist of ten Zoom sessions. The sessions will be recorded, and the recordings will be available to participants.

Registration

Space is Limited, and participation is by application only

Recommended donation: The payment is a trust-based sliding scale donation between 250 to 1800 Euro (or USD) according to your ability and grace.

All donations are dedicated to supporting Pele’s work in scholarship and creativity, designing fresh teachings and curriculums for an ancient Mystery School in collaborations with M. Gafny and other amazing humans.

OWN YOUR SHADOWS, OPEN YOUR WINGS AND FLY!

An old Kabbalistic saying says: “You wish for a flame? Search in the ashes.”

This weeklong retreat is an intimate journey into the dark.
This is where the Sacred Sparks of your superpowers and genius hide.

It is a rare opportunity to work and play in an advanced group with materials that many are afraid to touch.

Many people speak of love, while underneath the surface shame and fear are driving them daily. For those who are ready to face those fears and reclaim their innocent wholeness, this journey will be a lot of fun and hold a lot of growth.

With love and awareness, we will travel through the landscapes of our own shadows.
We will feel a lot, learn a lot, cry a lot, and laugh a lot. And then - we fly!

WHAT TO EXPECT

The journey into the heart of sexual shamanism and shadow is one of the most powerful ways to access your full aliveness and freedom.

Utilizing erotic, creative life force energy to connect sex and consciousness, spirit and form, you are expected to explore your hidden shadows, find your true free nature, and access other dimensions and realities.

This work is confronting because you have to look into yourself with honesty and self-awareness and feel some of the painful memories that created this repression.

You have to look in the mirror at your authentic face hidden under the mask of acceptable social behavior.

The more aware you are of your shadow the more “embodied” you are as a human being. Shadow work is the highest form of light work because it requires the utmost unconditional love and compassion.

In this workshop, we will take some steps into the divine aspect of darkness and into the golden treasures hidden in the shadows that have to do with sexuality and relationships.

The Texts

Carefully picked and selected by Pele, the texts that we will be interacting with carry deep universal wisdom and insights that can contribute to our personal and collective evolution. Those ancient Hebrew texts come from different branches and schools of Kabbalah and Hasidut. 

No text is presented as “The Truth” but as an invitation to our minds and hearts to explore reality in specific ways that the Kabbalists left for us.

No previous knowledge is needed, only an open mind and heart, and the ability to look at ancient traditional texts with love, respect, healthy criticism, and real curiosity. 

Texts will be presented in their original Hebrew form and will be translated into English. We will read the original text together, and expand, fly, sail, and soar, to extract the deep meaning for our own life.
