services include Pagan Handfastings & Weddings;  Wiccanings; House Cleansing & Blessings;  Tarot and Palmistry Readings.  Donations for these services are based upon the location where
you wish her services to be provided,  upon the length of her readings, and the costs of supplies included in her classes.  

Please contact either Rev. Cauthron or Rev. Matilla via e-mail for further information or to schedule any of these service(s).

Weekend and week-long Spiritual Retreats and Study Intensives conducted by Rev. Cauthron and/or Rev. Matilla may include a combination of the following classes: Magickal and Medicinal
Herbology; Candle Magick & Spellwork; Aromatherapy; Herbal Candle & Soap Making; Incense for Magick & Spellwork; Spiritual Healing with Crystals, Sound, and Color;  Chakra Clearing &
Alignment Techniques; Tarot for Divination, Tarot for Individual Growth, Creating Ritual and Sacred Spaces; Meditation Techniques; and Meeting your Spiritual Guides and Totem Animals
through Shamanic Journeys.

The Sanctuary is also available for groups wanting a mountain retreat venue to conduct  their  own classes.  The suggested minimum donation for the use of this facility is based upon the total
number of participants and the length of stay.  The donation covers the cost of the utilities, supplies and any catered meals that are requested.  Very small groups may be accommodated within
the Sanctuary itself with prior approval.  Larger groups who wish to participate in a  "camping"(RVs and tents) retreat can be accommodated outside on the 3 acre site.  

We can coordinate group discounts for lodging at the local Best Western Motel, RV parks and vacation cabins.   We can also organize all-inclusive dry camping experiences within the
Apache-Sitgreaves Forest  that includes classes, catered meals and private outdoor ritual spaces (for those groups that practice sky clad).  

Day trips in the Apache-Sitgrieves Forest for nature hikes, picnics, rock & crystal hounding and  fishing may be incorporated into the weekend or week-long Spiritual Retreats.
