Course Content
Ancestors: Reverence and Ritual
Gathering at the Well for the Hearth Season
The course begins October 18th, 2021
Happy to be co-weaving this potent liminal offering with you during these tender times. Our time together will be spent wisely in a connective and diligent way as we move through the ritual skills building in relation to dreamwork, psychopomp and ancestral healing.
This course provides a safe, grounded framework delivered in a non-dogmatic and experiential context, rooted in informative guided drop-in/meditations and rituals that are inclusive to people of diverse beliefs and ancestries.
Our weekly meetings will be roughly one-third responsive teaching, one-third dropped in dream weaving ritual with support for tending with your ancestors, and one third breakout group sharing.
You can find all course information in the links above. When a weekly call is complete, recordings will be posted on the calls and recordings page within a couple of days.

I encourage you throughout the course to clarify any questions that arise through the Frequently Asked Questions page and to consider engaging with others through the ten live video conferences which will be recorded.
