8-week course • Sundays • Starting January 4th In my home and online • Sliding scale: $306–$801 • Community Cook dinner included for in-person sessions This course is the beginning of a journey into ancestor veneration as a path of healing, protection, and community strength. For many years I have walked with the Ancestors, listening, learning, and weaving their guidance into my life. It has been my anchor through grief and tumult and my compass toward joy and clarity. With this offering, I open the circle for you to begin or deepen your own practice, to find support, and to remember that you are never alone. Over eight weeks, we will take time to learn the fundamentals of ancestor work. Together we will practice building boundaries that keep us safe and steady as we enter into relationship with our Beloved Dead. We will explore the many forms of altars, prayers, and offerings. We will pay attention to the ways our ancestors speak through dreams. We will step into guided journeywork using the Völva Stav method, and we will bring our hands and hearts into craft as we create tools to carry this practice into our everyday lives. Each week opens a new doorway. In the first session, we gather for an opening ceremony, introductions, and the chance to begin our journals. The following weeks move through altar work, dreaming, prayers and petitions, journeying, and a special drop-in space for integration. We will craft an ancestral doll together, learning how making and shaping can become its own form of divination and shadow work. We will close the circle with storytelling, reflection, and a final ceremony to root the work in your life going forward. The intentions for this course are simple and strong: you will gain a deeper understanding of how ancestor work can enrich your life, you will strengthen your connection to the Beloved Dead, you will learn how to set and hold boundaries in spiritual work, you will gather a toolbox of rituals and ceremonies, and you will be held in community with others walking a similar path. This series also prepares us for Level 2: Ancestor Work as Spiritual and Magical Resistance, where we will move deeper into ancestor work as a practice of collective liberation. In-person classes are hosted at Baami’s Place and include a Community Cook meal of soup, salad, and bread. Online sessions are spacious, reflective, and connective, offering time to practice and learn together even at a distance. Registration is now open.
