Spiritual aurora experience and exploration of Lofoten, Arctic Norway
new dates for 2027 coming soon
If you are an empath, lightworker, or energy-sensitive soul longing to experience the Aurora at a profound spiritual and transformative level, this retreat is for you. Immerse yourself in the winter wonderland of the Lofoten Islands in Arctic Norway, held by pristine nature, Nordic energies, and a circle of like-hearted souls drawn to the magic of the Aurora light. Arrive ready to reconnect with your heart, soften into deeper peace and joy, gain clarity and inspiration for your next life chapter and form soulful, lasting connections with other sensitive souls that extend far beyond the retreat.
Imagine yourself in a cozy living room overlooking stunning fjords and mountains. Candlelight fills the space as night falls, and you sip hot chocolate while reflecting on the day’s insights.
Suddenly, the Aurora appears—first a faint green stripe, then more, until the sky bursts with colour. Drawn outside in awe, you gather in a sacred circle, setting an intention to experience the Aurora light at a deep spiritual level. You feel energies rise in your body as the Aurora light opens your heart, gently dissolving what no longer serves you. You are deeply touched and connected to the Aurora and your soul.
Later in the week, you spend a beautiful sunny afternoon hiking an Arctic trail. You feel present in your body, the soft snow cracking beneath your feet, steep snowy mountains rising all around you. The fresh Arctic air fills you with deep calm and presence. Nature becomes your embodiment classroom.
Still touched by the emotional release from the day before, you feel lighter and more aware, as if a heavy burden has been lifted. You sense a desire to bring this inner liberation into your everyday life. What seemed impossible just two days ago now feels achievable.
Grateful for the support and shared experience, you feel seen and accepted, as if you have found your tribe. These new friends—sensitive, self-development-oriented souls—understand you because they have walked similar paths. You exchange insights and “aha” moments, recognizing how old patterns kept you stuck.
It’s not only the curated program but also this community that moves you forward. You feel more deeply connected with them than with many people at home.
Over the week, guided meditations, energy work, and quiet reflection create space for profound insights, emotional release, and clarity. To top it off, gentle yoga and outdoor experiences help integrate and embody the transformation.
This is your invitation to a sacred Arctic journey—to step into the stillness of the North, open your heart to the Aurora light, and experience deep spiritual transformation. You will witness the Aurora in ways that will stay with you for a lifetime.
Why this retreat?
This is not just another personal development retreat. Here, you will immerse yourself in the raw and pure energies of the Arctic, where stillness, quiet, and untouched nature create the perfect container for inner transformation.
Experience the Aurora not only as a breathtaking sky phenomenon, but also as a living consciousness, gently healing your heart and releasing what no longer serves you, for greater clarity and renewal. The Arctic land carries ancient wisdom and sacred vibrations, shaped by eons of elemental forces, the spirits of Nordic gods and goddesses, Nordic shamans, Vikings, and Sámi culture. In this remote, energetically potent environment, the veil is thin, your inner voice speaks more clearly, and transformation unfolds with ease.
Break your routine. Reconnect to your soul and gain insights. Release what no longer serves you. Embrace self-discovery. Return home liberated, embodied, and aligned with your inner knowing.
What transformation you might experience during the retreat?
See if any of this resonates…
Your life appears perfect. You have a successful job, but you can not remember the last time you felt genuine joy, happiness, and peace. Although surrounded by people, you may feel isolated. You are composed, disciplined, and in control, but beneath the surface, you fear being hurt again or seen as vulnerable. You hesitate to show your authentic self because you do not want to be judged, misunderstood or left alone once others truly see you.
You might feel overwhelmed by emotions or energies, question your direction in life, or quietly struggle with feelings of not being good enough. Perhaps you find it hard to set boundaries, tend to over-give, put others first, doubt your intuition and inner knowing, or constantly search for clarity outside yourself.
These are a few examples of inner patterns and beliefs that can limit our sense of fulfillment.
During the retreat, space opens to gently meet these patterns with awareness and compassion. Guided meditations, energy work, sacred group circles, and embodied practices help you soften and let go of old beliefs. When the nervous system feels safe and supported, you may experience reduced stress, emotional relief, greater clarity, and a deeper sense of inner peace.
After the retreat, you might feel more connected to your heart and inner knowing. You become more grounded in your body and clearer about what truly matters. Rather than seeking answers externally, you may experience greater self-trust, inner peace, and authenticity. You might gain clarity, renewed direction, and inspiration for your next life chapter.
The transformation is not a dramatic overnight change, but subtle yet profound shifts that continue to integrate long after you return home, influencing how you relate to yourself, others, and life itself.
Who will be there?
You will be surrounded by compassionate individuals committed to personal growth and self-development. Like you, they seek freedom from repetitive patterns and limiting beliefs, offering encouragement and presence during your transformation and emotional release. Open expression of vulnerability will be encouraged and cherished.
Together, we will create a magical, open-hearted atmosphere — a sacred container where soulful, lifelong friendships form under the protection and blessing of the Aurora light.
Why you are called here?
This retreat offers inner transformation, supported by Nordic energies and Aurora light, designed for empaths, lightworkers, and other sensitive souls. In a safe, sacred space, you will release outdated beliefs, gaining inner peace, mental clarity, a sense of embodiment, and lasting quality of life.
You will be surrounded by other compassioned souls. They understand the process of deep transformation during a powerful release, which feels like a phoenix rising from the ashes.
Over seven days in our retreat sanctuary, you will reflect, witness inspiring breakthroughs, connect to your inner knowing, heal heartaches, and receive guidance for a soul-led life. You will connect to the Arctic land, wisdom, and Aurora energy, finally feeling at home and reconnecting to your heart and soul.
Why Lofoten Islands, Arctic Norway?
When I began planning this retreat, I opened a map of Arctic Norway. Without prior knowledge of the region, my eyes were drawn to one place: Lofoten.
Photos of fjords, sea, mountains, and cute red houses were stunning, but seeing it in person was truly breathtaking. Its fairytale beauty bewitched me at every turn of the road. It is the most beautiful place I have seen.
Beyond the stunning nature, Lofoten holds pure energy and a thin veil to a higher vibrational reality. Insights arise spontaneously, the heart opens naturally, and you feel deeply held by the land. It is a place where you feel at home and you can truly be yourself.
Why February 2026 Aurora retreat and not later?
This retreat takes place during the February New Moon, when dark skies offer optimal conditions for viewing the Aurora. The polar night has ended, allowing daylight exploration while nights remain long for Aurora watching.
This New Moon is also a Solar eclipse in Aquarius, marking the Chinese New Year of the Fire Horse—a powerful time for new beginnings. Shortly after, a rare Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries marks the start of a new 36-year cycle, inviting us to step into our inner power and embodied leadership.
These potent energies encourage us to move from observation to action, embracing responsibility for our lives. If you seek clarity and direction for 2026 and beyond, this retreat offers a powerful gateway into what is ready to emerge.
How will we facilitate transformation?
As a channel, medium, and energy healer, I connect with the gentle yet potent energies of the Aurora light, Lemurian light healing, ascended masters, archangels, and elementals—nature spirits such as elves, fairies, and trolls. I also work with Nordic energies, shamanic wisdom, and the keepers of the runes.
Together, we will invite these energies to support your profound transformation during the retreat through channeled healing meditations, workshops, and soulful group circles. Our work will be intuitively guided, allowing you to receive the most aligned support and benefits for your personal growth and transformation.
Meditation
During meditation, a beautiful, energetic space may open, filled with clarity, light, and support. You may experience sensations such as warmth, tingling, deep relaxation, or expanded awareness. Light beings may share messages, blessings, or healing. In this elevated state, you can receive intuitive insights and gain inner clarity. The meditations may address outdated patterns and beliefs, e.g., not feeling good enough, over-giving, difficulty setting boundaries, or opening to deeper connection with others.
Workshops
We’ll explore themes and tools for self-discovery and reflection, supported by guided meditation and journaling. We will share realizations in safe space that allows emotional release and inner shifts. We’ll work with archetypes, uncover repeating patterns, and explore runes and bind runes. You’ll be guided to intuitively create your own bindrune or to craft a personal rune set.
Group circle
All these practices culminate in our sacred sharing circle—an intimate, space where everyone feels seen and supported. We will share our insights after mediation, workshops, and journaling. The group energy will amplify healing, and deepen your connection to your soul. It will be a supportive environment to open up even about what you have not shared before and build deep bonds with your new life-long friends.
How a day might look like?
To support deep inner work and heart-opening journeys, I have created a retreat program that weaves together profound energetic experiences with the high-frequency codes of the land. You will have plenty of opportunities to connect with yourself, your heart, and your soul, discovering new aspects of your being.
The integration of profound energy work will continue through yoga classes and outdoor activities, like snowshoeing or hiking, a boat trip to Trollfjorden, Northern Lights viewing with a professional photographer, and a day trip around Lofoten Islands. We will follow the energies, flow, and processes unfolding in the group and the Arctic nature.

About your host Renata - The SoulShifter
I am a life scientist and also an energy healer, intuitive coach, channel, and medium. Through my journey of deep healing and transformation, I now help others reconnect with their hearts and awaken their spiritual gifts. I help you recognize outdated patterns and beliefs and guide you on the journey of overcoming them so you can experience deeper peace, joy, fulfillment, clarity, and authenticity.
My journey of awakening led me from being very collected, in control, and having a restless mind to deep soul activations. I completed training in Lemurian light healing, Golden Kundalini energy healing, archetypal transformation, psychic mediumship, and channeling. I am currently in training for Somatic Experiencing and Akashic record reading. I realized my spiritual gifts had always been there, suppressed by years of mental overactivity.
I reconnected my mind and heart by balancing the mental masculine with the creativity and intuition of the feminine.
Through self-reflection and work on myself, I shed many layers of limiting beliefs and outdated patterns. It was transformation after transformation. Many times, I was reborn (ironically, my name means “reborn, newborn” in Latin). Today, I feel much more at peace, more embodied and authentic. If you ask people around me, they all say I've changed massively in the past 5 years and that I'm no longer the same person. I am more healed, authentic, and connected to my inner compass than ever before. I know the path of awakening because I have been walking my own, so I can guide you on yours. I will be happy to walk with you.
Inspiration for the retreat
My first encounter with the Aurora led to an energetic upgrade, opening my heart to divine, unconditional love and deepening my connection with my soul. I was touched. Tears flowed as a river of purification. I understood that Aurora is not only a sky phenomenon but also a consciousness that wants to heal our hearts. I felt deep, heartfelt gratitude for the experience. That moment became the inspiration for this retreat.
The retreat is designed to heal the wounded heart in the energetically supportive Nordic landscape. Together, we'll transform heartache, release what holds us back, and embrace life again. It's time for peace and tranquillity — to feel at home.
