Zodiac Collection Itineraries
Custom-curated itineraries based on the four zodiac elements: fire, earth, air and water
Reflecting upon the existence and purpose of the four zodiac elements: fire, earth, air and water the Zodiac Collection Itineraries are equipped with the intention to provide insight into one’s core values, and share how to nourish oneself to further cultivate inner peace. By way of four distinct itineraries inclusive of one recommended spa service, a private holistic session, a dining experience, a carefully-selected cottage type and a specialty cocktail, guests are encouraged to take advantage of L’Auberge de Sedona’s suggestions and discover both the lesser-known and more obvious qualities of one’s element.
Fire
Known to be passionate, dynamic and sometimes temperamental individuals, fire signs – Aries, Sagittarius and Leo – are very much like their ruling element and driven by energy and forces around them. The passionate and creative fire signs can take advantage of the resort’s inspiring surroundings and programming to further fuel their foremost needs.
Spa Treatment: The Sacred Stone Massage will allow the warmth of stones to speak to a fire sign while aiding in releasing unwanted tension and stress which will assist in evening temperament.
Holistic Experience: Participating in a Human Design Reading will provide guidance to a fire sign to flow through life with more ease and grace with a deeper understanding of their unique ways of functioning.
Culinary: Thriving on bold flavors, the Cress Sunday Brunch; an exquisite, ever-changing menu (that goes best with a Bloody Mary) will satisfy fire elements with items that can help to cool them down.
Room type: The Garden Cottage, equipped with a wood-burning fireplace, is designed to reconnect to the fire element within oneself, while simultaneously setting the tone for a cozy, warm escape.
Cocktail: Designed to ignite the fiery passion, Smoke Signals is a mindful concoction of Michter’s rye whiskey, Campari, Del Maguey Vida mezcal, Bitter Truth aromatic bitters and house-made simple syrup.
Earth
Among the four elements, earth signs – Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn – are considered the most grounded with loyalty, stability and patience as key traits. L’Auberge de Sedona celebrates nature and adventure in a myriad of ways daily, and invites earth elements to appreciate the resort’s pristine surroundings.
Spa Treatment: Highlighting one of earth’s treasures, Mg12 Massage uses magnesium in a healing foot bath followed by a full body to help ground and restore natural energy.
Holistic Experience: Soul Whispers Tarot Reading to immerse in L’Auberge de Sedona’s outdoor scenery and uncover patterns and truths and experience a new, true connection to yourself in a more profound way.
Culinary: Embrace the ever-changing seasons with a Chef’s Lunch Tasting Menu which features a rotating menu inspired by the resort’s surroundings and paired with a local wine – both food and wine celebrate the natural bounty of Arizona.
Room type: Perfect for all seasons and tucked amidst the resort’s garden paths, the Spa Cottage presents flowering trees in spring and summer, and thereafter, fall colors throughout autumn, with snow in the winter, granting earth signs endless opportunities to perceive beauty of the natural world.
Cocktail: With a thick and full palate, the Terra Tonic plays on natural flavors that attract earth signs combining Woodford Reserve bourbon, Amaro Nonino, Aztec chocolate bitters and house-made demerara syrup.
Air
The adventurous, curious and ever-changing, air signs – Gemini, Libra and Aquarius –appreciate people and environments who can ground them back into the present moment and intellectually stimulate them. Air elements who stay at the resort can expect to release negative emotions through selected activities and relinquish possibilities of overstimulation, letting the mind wander and removing spiritual blocks.
Spa Treatment: The Holistic Massage offers gentle cycles of quiet stillness and breath awareness that lull the mind to unwind and relax. Air signs flourish with the release of static energy within the body through this therapeutic massage and following restorative and healing energy work.
Holistic Experience: Shinrin Yoku – also known as bathing in nature – is ideal for an air sign to practice channeling nature’s essence for the wellness it provides. Best-fit for those with inquisitive minds, guests can immerse themselves in the forest environment and disconnect from the outside world.
Culinary: Savoring a whimsical picnic crafted to compliment a natural Sedona setting while breathing in fresh air and revitalize the mind, body and spirit, all while indulging in local cuisine, is an air sign bread and butter.
Room type: Breathe in the fresh, crisp mountain air and bask in unobstructed, 180- degree panoramic views from an elevated vantage point with the Vista Cottage. Complete with an outdoor shower, air signs are invited to admire the breathtaking scenery of beloved Red Rock Country.
Cocktail: Cloud Nine has been crafted to share in light and sweet flavors to elevate air signs with Komasa gin, Giffard Fruit de la Passion Liqueur, Orgeat syrup mixed with pineapple and lemon juice.
Water
With emotions flowing like the waves of the ocean, water signs – Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces –are sentimental and oftentimes the moody empaths among the twelve zodiac signs. L’Auberge de Sedona’s creekside location, coupled with experiences intended to bring comfort and relief, is destined to provide water signs with a greater sense of security and foster the mind-body-spirit connection.
Spa Treatment: Find a true state of relaxation with Inner Peace Cranial Sacral to release compression and let water signs unwind. The experience is completed with a Tibetan singing bowl to bring you back into your body, while continuing the relaxation.
Holistic Experience: A Transformational Breathwork session is recommended to water signs as way to lighten emotions and tensions with controlled breathing. Through a series of gentle floor yoga poses paired with breathing exercises, guests can let go of negative thoughts and restrictions.
Culinary: A clear choice for water signs is Creekside Dining at Cress on Oak Creek. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, Sunday brunch, whichever menu interests you the most, dine under the towering sycamores and let the sound of Oak Creek relax you as you nourish your senses.
Room type: Set beside Oak Creek, and accompanied by nature’s soundtrack of rushing water, the Creekside Cottage is undoubtedly the best-fit accommodation for water signs. Featuring a sprawling deck facing the meditative whirl of water, guests can sit back and enjoy the view and sounds of the creek, both bound to lull them into a relaxed state of mind.
Cocktail: A fresh and straightforward cocktail, Crystal Clear is a level cocktail like the horizon for water signs including Kettle One vodka, Monkey 47 Schwarzwald dry gin, lime juice and house-made simple syrup.
Book any cottage of your choice or stay as a group in the five-bedroom Creekhouse and add Zodiac Collection programing with the concierge to curate an unforgettable elemental experience.
