Grail Kingship Rite
Return of the Holy Grail
In the quiet heart of Winter, the Spirit of Yule is calling true and noble men back to the green chapel to restore the ancient origins of our Celtic festive season…
Why? Mid-Winter is when the solar hero is eclipsed by the dark, confronted with his deepest fears and haunted by self-doubt.
Unless he dares to follow the call…to seek the Grail
A Sacred Quest that humbles the ego and midwives the birth of the Sovereign.
This Winter, you are invited into a sacred brotherhood to claim your authority, be a healing presence for the Earth and a partner worthy of a Queen.
It’s Time. Your kingship awaits.

WHO THIS RETREAT IS FOR
This retreat is for men aged 21+ ready to fulfil their potential…those committed to their personal growth and men’s empowerment.
WHY?
Most men’s retreats assist men to individuate from their mother to find their masculine identity. This is the first rite of passage in a man’s life.
The second rite of passage was conducted when a man ‘came of age’ at 21, when he would return to face the feminine as a man, not a boy.
Without this rite, men struggle to be in right relationship with the feminine within themselves and sabotage love due to a fear of intimacy and commitment.
This is why a woman facilitates this rite of passage to assist men to confront and transcend their fear of the feminine, so they can become whole.
‘Through the goddess, the hero attains mastery over life itself.’
Joseph Campbell

Without This Rite of Passage, Men Embody
THE HOLLY KING
A Man who protects his heart for fear of being hurt and losing his power. This keeps him isolated and enslaved to the inner critic…
At risk of depression, illness, injury & suicide during Autumn / Winter
With This Rite of Passage, Men Embody
THE OAK KING
A Man who has healed the split between his head and his heart, resulting in decisive actions from the heart that inspire trust and confidence.
This Man is the Light of Hope in the Darkness.
IN THE WESTERN WORLD, THE MALE SUICIDE RATE IS THREE TIMES HIGHER THAN FEMALES.
“Without the Grail, the king’s wound will not heal,
and the land will become a wasteland.”

MEET THE TEAM
Tanishka: Retreat Facilitator
Tanishka was beloved for 11 years as ‘The Moon Woman’ with half a million followers of her daily guidance. An author of six books, she has taught ancient feminine wisdom traditions & practices for 30 years. In 2004, she started working with men, creating male archetypal chart readings to assist men in integrating all 7 masculine aspects within their psyche.
In 2008 she received the message it was time to awaken the Grail codes. This was followed by intuitive downloads that included a Sacred Union series of books & Grail practices for men & women.
In 2011 she started receiving visions to decode the greatest mystery of all time, ‘The Holy Grail’ from the perspective of the sacred feminine. In 2013 she began touring with these teachings drawing on her background as a stand-up comedienne to entertain while captivating audiences with her ability to channel truth as an oracle.
In 2013, she created the 12 Suns Brotherhood Lodge online course, offering a template for men’s circles that align with the solar cycle to support their Hero’s Journey, activated by the sun’s transit around the astrological wheel. This was designed as a counterpart to her women’s circle facilitator training course that trained women in 44 countries. In 2013, she facilitated the Rainbow Bridge retreat for men & women to access & empower the feminine & masculine archetypes that govern the chakras as a foundation for conscious relating. She also ran this event in Bali in 2019, in addition to creating online courses for men and women to activate the meridians of sacred masculine & feminine energy by empowering each of the masculine and feminine archetypes.
In addition to being a popular keynote speaker at conferences, summits and festivals online & live around the world, she writes feature articles for leading women’s and alternative health magazines & conducts online courses, speaking tours & retreats. Her fifth book, ‘Goddess Wisdom’ published by Hay House in conjunction with an online course was released June 2017 and was translated into Chinese, French and Slovenian.
Since 2020, Tanishka has led men’s circles around the world, both online and in 10 countries. She speaks regularly at festivals on how to awaken the sacred masculine and why it is time to reawaken the lost mystic tradition of The Grail, the title of her latest book rated 5 stars on Amazon.
“I used to think the idea of a woman initiating men was emasculating. So I was surprised to receive a vision in 2011 of a past incarnation, where I was initiating men in the forest. This came after an intuitive flash that it was time to activate, ‘the Grail codes’. A year later I was guided to create my first speaking tour with crowdfunding. Shortly before the tour began, I decoded the truth about the Holy Grail, a rite of passage that awakened the stag king, Cernunnos and the King Stag greeted me at my front door! It’s been a long journey since then…but I have persisted, urged on by my ancestors and brothers who have attended my talks. It is with a full heart of gratitude I acknowledge my great, great, great, great, great grandfather, Iolo Morganwg, a Welsh bard and Druid who was passionate about reinstating our rites, stolen by colonialism.”
Claire: Retreat Support
Holding space and journeying the lunar mysteries each Month for the feminine over the past 13 years has been an initiation in itself. I have been a student of Tanishka and facilitator of the mystic rites of passage during this time. This has given me a perspective into the wounded feminine but also the potential that lies within each person that transforms and returns from the Underworld.
This sacred Grail retreat is where all this work comes together, only when the sacred masculine has undergone the same inward journey can he meet the sacred feminine. Whole, embodied and empowered. I look forward to be a part of your journey
