Regardless of who our ancestors were or what our ancestral lineage may be, most of us find ourselves filled with a longing for deeper wisdom's that only our elders could have offered us. Sadly we are deeply lacking wise elders to help keep us in check and to pass on lineage traditions and wisdom teachings to us.
This is where having the ancestral understanding of where we come from, and the ability to journey into the spirit realm can serve to support us in understanding some of our inherited gifts and faults as we navigate ourselves into or along our destiny path.
I have spent more then a decade understanding how to navigate the spirit realm and working with my own ancestors for healing and support, and this has led me to the understanding that it is part of my destiny path to guide others how to unfold into their own destinies and deepen their connections with their ancestors. it is with great joy that I now bring this work to others.

What we will be covering in our six weeks together:
- We begin with Land honouring. Understanding the lands that we stand on now and how it relates to us as humans and how our ancestors would have functioned. For this session we will have Guest teacher Pascale Goodrich-Black with us.
- Work to understand the difference between cultural appropriation and cultural appreciation.
- Deprogramming ourselves and finding our way in integrity. Understanding decolonization and spiritual activist work with regards to our own ancestors.
- Come back home to ourselves, rooted in a deeper understanding of who we are and finding a sense of belonging in the world.
- Together we will explore and create an ancestral practise that honours who we are, and where we come from, and seek to deepen through daily connection with spirit.
- Intro to Journeying/ navigating the unseen realms
Discover an animal ally, and eventually journey with them to find a healing ancestor.
- Ancestral basics-how to work with our ancestors in a safe way. Not all of our ancestors went where they needed to go and are safe to work with as spirits. How to tell the difference.
- Protection and boundaries within the spirit world.
- Understanding who we are and where we come from, asking our ancestral helping spirits for guidance.
- Honouring our ancestors with ceremony.
- Building a shrine for our ancestors, and beginning to develop a spiritual connection and ancestral practice.
- Making ancestral incense that is close to what your own ancestors may have used in honouring and ceremony.
- Building ancestral altars to begin a daily practise.
- Beginning to understand what healing the family lines really means, and creating ancestral talismans.
- What did our ancestors like to eat, how did they sit in ceremony, what animals or elementals did they connect with? Let's stop appropriating other cultures and discover what our own ancestors did things, and deepen into our own lineages rather than fetishizing others.
It is helpful to have had a DNA test, but please know that this is optional to this course.
