Episode 352: Remembering and Honoring Our Ancestors

On this week’s episode we are taking time to explore how we can honor and remember our ancestors, particularly during the liminal time of late October and early November. Around the world, across cultures, the autumn is a time of year when communities participate in rituals and celebrations for the dead. A major element of feng shui is the continuity of lineage and the spiritual support that ancestors provide to the living. Today we explore practical ways to connect with one's ancestry through altars and cultural practices.

What we talk about in this episode:

-How honoring ancestors strengthens both the living and the dead

-Why liminal times, such as autumn, facilitate communication between realms

-Feng Shui as a practice to honor ancestors

-Creating an altar to acknowledge the foundation laid by ancestors

-Rituals for the dead vary across cultures and traditions.

-Creating a space for ancestors in your home is important

…and much more!
