About this Event
New Moon: A Ritual for Ancestral Healing
In these uncertain times, it is important to find space for rest and recovery to nourish our weary spirits. As the interest in organized religion fades, how do we practice spirituality, worship, and fellowship? How do we honor our bodies, minds, spirits and rituals that align us to who came before us? The diasporic body has information stored, passed down over generations. An innate connection to ancestral knowledge that needs to be fed to survive. Through processes of spiritual cleansing, prayer/affirmation writing, dancing, bearing witness and being witnessed participants will have an opportunity to investigate the intricacies of their embodied ancestral story.
