Pictured here is my ancestral altar on my maternal side. I plan to create one to honor the paternal as well.
In my last newsletter (link in bio), I wrote about the importance of connecting with our ancestors to clear out the old thinking.
WHY?
Because we are in the process of breaking old unhealthy patterns of imbalance, bringing twisted, inauthentic behaviors to the light so we can eradicate them.
And none other than our epigenetic roots are working with us to co-facilitate the process. We are working together to rewrite the contracts of old to bring balance into the new.
This moment in time, this era of raw awareness, is a pinnacle moment of “revealing” what’s been hiding under a deceptive mask for so long! We cannot clear what we cannot see, or maybe in this case, feel.
As a collective, we are all feeling it in some way, shape or form.
And, this does not happen overnight nor does it happen without a fight.
So I talk to my Opa and Oma and their parents and grandparents. I share in a glass of scotch. I ask them how it was, what I can glean from them. What they are wanting to change. My great aunt speaks of the power of the feminine voice, and my grandfather of justice and the essence of integrity. As they consider what they would have done differently, we share that with them across time and space.
Many cultures honor their ancestors for this very reason. Their presence doesn’t end, it transforms. Their energy is still here, moving through us, guiding us, asking to be acknowledged.
What are your ancestors asking you to remember?
