Women's retreats in Austin built around astrology, archetypes, and group ceremony.
Chrysalis runs women's retreats out of Austin with a spiritual bent that draws on astrology and feminine archetypes. Their Queenmaker Women's Lions Gate Retreat, timed to the annual Lions Gate portal in August, gives a good sense of the approach: group ceremony, inner work, and cosmic timing woven into a multi-day container for women.
The name says a lot. Chrysalis is about transformation, and the retreat framing leans hard into that. This is not a spa weekend. It is archetype work, ritual, and the kind of raw group vulnerability that either clicks for you or doesn't. If words like "Lions Gate" and "Queenmaker" make your ears perk up, you're the audience.
Public details about who runs Chrysalis and how long they've been at it are thin. What is visible is a clear focus on women's circles and retreats tied to astrological cycles, which puts them in a specific lane of Austin's broader spiritual scene.
