Commune with your land-body & snake lineage
in gorgeous Hood River, Oregon
Explore 5 acres of gorgeous land along the jaw-dropping Columbia River Valley, stewarded by the Wasco (Chinook) people.
This wondrous place houses the secluded, fertile, mossy forest home where we’ll stay, nestled with cozy places on the land to commune with—including an incredible firepit.
The home is spacious and features Scandinavian inspired design.
Rich in history, Hood River is a beautiful watershed that runs along the Gorge, created by 20 massive basalt flows which began formulating 20-40 million years ago!
The serpentine river carves through the valley with upcrops and volcanic outflows—perfect for Snake Priestesses!
Stay with Rebecca at the stunning Airbnb (only 8 1 spot left), or find your own accommodation in Hood River.
Rebecca is a bridge to the deep ancestral wisdom available to each of us.
She is a trusted guide that reconnects me to the wisdom within.
Journeying with her is like visiting an ancient-future state of being that unlocks the secrets of my heart and soothes my mind.
I come back to my body and spirit – more grounded and expanded.
Working with Rebecca is a true gift.
Elsa Alegria Sophia
The Snake Priestess circle, curated by Rebecca Cavender, embodies a learning that is both new and familiar. Her focus and expertise in lineage work resonates deeply for me and is also a stretch as I come to orient myself in a new landscape of the priestess path.
I am both challenged and held tenderly in love and acceptance. I am so glad I heeded the call and am grateful to Rebecca for sharing her gifts in a way to assist me with expanding mine, and to my fellow sisters for accompanying me on this journey.”
Catherine Franchetti
Rebecca ushered me into an entirely new way of engaging with my business through her Sacred Oracle sessions, revealing the true heart and soul of my work. This particular medicine is in my bones, my hair, my body, my core. My heart tells me, this is only the beginning.
Reuniting with this aspect of myself was the final piece that I needed in order to begin the very real and lasting process of coming into greatness… of sharing myself in new ways – healing and inspiring, ecstatic and blissful. From here, I realize my fullest potential: from the roots that run deep into the core of this planet to the crown that links me to the cosmos Herself. From here, I am finding my way back home.
Faye LaVie
I felt wrapped in love during my journey with Rebecca. I was able to open up my truest depth of self. The journey and visual imagery was powerful beyond words. Medicine. Alchemy. True sacred Work.
I was honored in my personal process, as I was able to do what I needed during our time together. Rebecca gently but powerfully guided me. I felt protected and held in such a scared way. Rebecca allowed me to feel safe to express, vocalize, and share what I needed during our session.
Bridgette Doerr
Rebecca’s ability to reveal herself so we can go deeper and her ability as an oracle, offering transmissions in the moment, is spectacular and incredibly heart expanding. The depth of holding Rebecca does as a mentor has been immense.
This program has given me space to be more alive in my sexuality and I’m so grateful for that and the teachings we receive from Rebecca. I’ve come across some deep wounds that I had been holding in my body since I was a very young girl. I have been able, through the teachings, circles, and working with Rebecca, to face them and receive Immense healing gifts.
Wendy Phyllis
Working with Rebecca has allowed me to connect with the land I am inhabiting and my ancestral lineage in a way that has never been possible for me before.
There has been a potent, electrical aliveness that has been ignited through this connection. Even though I have to manage chronic illness, people keep commenting on how viscerally alive I am. I am shedding the constraint of holding a particular image of myself, the competent, controlled, “perfect” self, and allowing the primal, ancient, elemental nature to peek through. There is so much juicy aliveness.
Thank you Rebecca for all that you do!
Jamie K. Hardy, Ph.D.
“For anyone seeking accompaniment as you re-discover your voice, your gifts, your self, I cannot recommend Rebecca highly enough. Her humility, skillfulness and devotion are impeccable.
Every now and then, we come across truly gifted advisors, companions and guides as we make the journey back to ourselves. Rebecca is one of those gifted treasures whose commitment to the art of re-member-ing makes her a truly exceptional ally.
I have witnessed her tender compassion and fierce truth telling as together we dream the world that is emerging alive.”
Erin Hawkins
Crack Your Heart So Wide Open…
…that all love, all pleasure, all ecstatic medicine undulates within your hot, holy body.
It’s time to remember yourself as conduit.
It’s time to birth your yoni-fire-heart.
It’s time to commune with the spirit of Life enflamed … of strength enflamed.

You’ll remember the slithering, rattling, hissing-soft arousal, arising, awakening of ecstatic bliss so that all medicine can pour through you, as the Radiant One.
This is the electric lightning coursing through your blood … a plasma love regenerating your connection to body, earth, and sky.

Serpentine Schedule
Arrive Thursday, October 3 at 12pm
Depart Sunday, October 6, by 10am (then join Rebecca for brunch at a local restaurant)
The schedule will fluctuate, allowing for the tantalizing and unexpected to arise, depending on the moment and energetic flow of the group.
The intention is for us to be in an ongoing state of embodied serpent medicine, no matter what we’re doing—whether we’re making meals together, walking to the fire pit, or gathering for coffee.
We’re here as living, breathing remembrances of awakened snake priestesses.
There will be moments of spontaneous medicine that pours forth from you and your serpent queens. While there’s a deeply grounded container held, this isn’t about predicting, performing, or scripting.

Meet Rebecca:
Ordained Snake Priestess
Rebecca, an ordained priestess with the 13 Moon Mystery School, began her initiation with snake medicine in 2012. Since 2017, she’s consciously been in a direct relationship with the Primal Goddess.
She holds powerful snake medicine and was deeply called by the Goddess to create this advanced in-person for you, because it’s very rare to receive modern-day snake medicine rooted in primordial wisdom. Some of the teachings can only be experienced in person, and in a group setting, as we enter this remembrance together.
Rebecca will guide the space where you’ll be catalyze and initiated to not only awaken, but embody your snake priestess lineage. She does this through the honoring of the following lineages she carries, opening you to yours: Golden Snake, Scent Priestess (Certified), Völva, Tantra (certified practitioner through Red Lotus Temple), and ancestral (Finnish, Swedish, English, Irish, Scottish). She comes from the following clans: bear, reindeer, snake, seal, horse, wolf.
Golden Snake Temple is an embodiment of Rebecca’s diverse lineages and is, in part, inspired by seidr–the ecstatic, medicine path of the Scandinavian völva, a shamanic priestess.

Have Questions? Here’s the Answers…

Q: How Do I Prepare?
We will gather for preparation calls & you’ll receive a packet of information the closer we get.

Yes. There will be a professionally trained psychotherapist attending & initiated snake priestess, designated as a safe person that you can go to at any time, should you require additional support. They will not be providing therapy, but they are trauma-informed, so can hold the space for you that’s needed, should anything arise.

Hood River, Oregon. This is just one hour east of Portland and the airport.
Q: What Do I Bring?
Please bring some food for your stay (mark if just for yourself, otherwise can be shared for lunches/dinenrs which will be potluck style).
