Did you know that bees have a spiritual meaning in love and relationships?
Honey bees symbolize love and beekeepers symbolize the protection of marriage and family.
By managing their hives and caring for bees, beekeepers ensure that bees flourish and honey continues to flow, just as a couple must tend to their relationship so they may grow and flourish together.
Bees also symbolize faithfulness, dedication, hard work, indestructibility, remembering & reconnecting with our twin flame, transformation, vigilance, guidance, commitment, persistence, and collaboration.
We invite you to join us as we journey into the hive-mind and learn how to connect more deeply with those we love and the natural world.
Mead Making & Tasting
Honey, long considered the food of the gods and an aphrodisiac, is also the key ingredient of mead (honey wine), which was the foundation of the honeymoon, as it was a custom to give newlyweds enough mead to last for one month. Honey refers to the sweetness of marriage, and the moon refers to the duration of sweet blissful moments that the couple shares in the celebration of their unity.
This retreat is designed to offer a "honeymoon" experience for lovers in a committed partnership, no matter the duration or status of your relationship. This is a true celebration of love, connection, and unity; offering many activities for a playful and intimate connection with your beloved.
Intuitive Beekeeping Training
Couples Intuitive Beekeeping Retreat is a unique experience that is designed to bring couples closer together through the art of beekeeping. During this retreat, couples will explore honey bee hives and learn how to be gentle and loving bee guardians. Facilitator, and well-known beekeeper, Jen Rasmussen Lair intertwines intuitive beekeeping lessons with ceremonies and activities based on unity consciousness, the importance of honey bees in the continuation of life, and the spiritual nature of beekeeping. This retreat is the perfect opportunity for couples to deepen their bond and share the magic of beekeeping.
Learn new empowering and inspiring skills with your spouse while enjoying a magical and memorable vacation in an enchanting tropical Hawaiian rainforest.
