🐇 Down the Rabbit Hole
What if everything falling apart was not the end—but an invitation?
Most people have heard of the Dark Night of the Soul. Few people talk about what comes next.
There is a season where your old identity has fallen away, but your new life has not fully emerged. Nothing appears to be happening—even though everything is changing.
I call this The Dark Night of the Soil.
Because roots grow before trees.
This workshop introduces a framework for understanding the quiet, unseen phase between collapse and renewal—and recognizing that nothing you have experienced has been wasted.
What You’ll Experience
Recognizing the Dark Night
Understand why life sometimes falls apart before it comes back together—and how to recognize the deeper transition beneath the disruption.
Meeting the Shadow
Explore the parts of yourself that are ready to be acknowledged, understood, integrated, and released with compassion.
The Dark Night of the Soil
Explore the hidden phase that follows the Dark Night of the Soul, where growth begins long before it becomes visible.
Transformational Breathwork
Release, reconnect, regulate, and integrate your experience through a guided breathwork journey led by Lisa M. Saar.
Restructuring Your Life
Begin rebuilding from a place of authenticity, purpose, alignment, and a deeper relationship with who you are becoming.
This Is for You If…

Why September 27?
The timing supports both descent and emergence.
Astrology of the Portal
September 27, 2026 carries an energetic bridge between deep inner work and the courage to begin again. The sky emphasizes transformation, truth, identity renewal, and the restructuring of what no longer reflects the person you are becoming.
Astrology is included as a symbolic and reflective layer. No previous astrology knowledge is needed.
Meet Your Guides
Bryony Blood
Bryony is the founder of The Blood Moon Collective, where science meets spirituality. Her work helps people recognize meaning inside transition, translate intuitive and symbolic experiences, and move through awakening with greater clarity, trust, and purpose.
She created the Dark Night of the Soil framework to describe the hidden, fertile stage of transformation—the season where roots are growing before anything is visible above the surface.
Lisa M. Saar
Lisa is the voice behind Manifesting Your Shit, a space devoted to nervous-system healing, breathwork, manifestation, and embodied transformation.
She guides people out of survival patterns and back into safety, self-trust, emotional regulation, and the inner power to create lasting change.
During The Dark Night Portal, Lisa will lead a transformational breathwork experience designed to support release, grounding, reconnection, and integration.
Some transformation happens in the soil, before anything is seen above ground.
