Open a Portal to Your Ancestors
Altars are spaces where we open portals into the spirit world. During Día de los Muertos, these portals grow especially powerful as the veil between worlds becomes thin, and our loved ones return to feast, celebrate, and commune with us.
This guide was born from a prayer: that your ancestral altar becomes a place you come to when you need support or grounding. A bridge between worlds, and a beacon for your ancestors during Día de los Muertos and beyond.
Inside the Ebook
The Indigenous origins of Día de los Muertos and the ancient Mesoamerican traditions of honoring our ancestors
Copal as your sacred smoke: how to work with copal, and why the ancestors love it as an offering
Creating your ancestral altar, step by step: choosing your space, sacred items, inviting the four elements, calling in your ancestors, and offerings
The importance of prayer in ancestral work, with a prayer for calling in your ancestors
Who This Is For
For anyone who wants to honor their lineage, whether you know your ancestors' names and faces or are just beginning to reach toward them. The guide shows you how to call them in even without photos or names.
Format
Digital PDF ebook, available to download immediately after purchase.
Written by Xochitl Ashe, fifth-generation medicine woman and founder of Magical Medicine Journeys.
