SAGE

Each year, in the month of August, nearly sixty small creatures complete their annual pilgrimage to the Bernese mountains. Snails, mushrooms, leaves, mice, and even humble stones journey across vast distances, drawn by a shared longing: to seek the protection and shelter of the Goddess Eek within the sacred Amethyst Cave—a millennia-old sanctuary, home to the most powerful and high frequency gemstones. 

As soon as they cross the threshold of the violet cave, the energy of the crystals washes over them, filling them with a deep and tranquil harmony. There, the Goddess Eek—guardian of their passage into a deeper realm—culminates their awakening bathing them in spring water from her chalice. One by one, they quietly surrender to the moment, until they take on a luminous purple hue, merging with the minerals themselves. 

In this enchanted state, suspended between the earthly and the divine, they celebrate for days—honoring the most beautiful form of connection and unity they have ever known

Join us for a weekend of 14-16 August 2026 in Emmental filled with workshops, music, movement, rest, exploration, and dancing with the stones, creatures and spirits drawn to Goddess Eek. Beginning with a cosy Friday afternoon arrival, we will spend the days together guided by beautiful souls through different activities and experiences, until a soft farewell on Sunday.

Expect beautiful sunset moments, bonfires, shared meals, and unexpected magic. SAGE is a space where you can slow down, connect with fellow Goddess Eek pilgrims and celebrate together.

This event is a non-profit event and all profits will be donated to Glocal Roots. We provide two ticket (regular and low alcohol) options to accomodate our more thirsty pilgrims as well as ones that prefer to enjoy their time without (or low 1-2 beer a day) alcohol. The tickets include accomodation, food, drinks and most entertainment.

This is a by friends for friends event, and as such we expect everyone to be volunteering a couple of hours on various duties such as cooking and cleaning.

A list of the wonderful artists that will take us in this mystical journey will be announced closer to date.

We will not accept any kind of discrimination. No matter if it is based on your randomly assigned biological gender or which you chose to identify as; the sexual orientation you live by or die for; your perceived status in this society; or the species that you are. We are all special snowflakes. While our existence is equally unimportant to the great spirits of the universe, we are important for each other and shall treat each other with respect and love to not disturb the harmony of the moment.
