059. Inside a Samhain Ancestor Ceremony


Listen Later

We're back! And this episode is a little different. I recently attended an overnight Samhain ancestor ceremony, and felt really called to bring you inside that experience. To share the story, yes. But also to offer it as a mirror for your own path, your own ancestral connection, and whatever guidance might be waiting for you too.

In this episode, I explore:
  • What it can feel like to step into ancestral work when you feel disconnected from your lineage
  • The importance of honoring the real cycles we're part of (rather than forcing our lives into straight lines and over-productivity)
  • What happens when we create silence and actually listen instead of always speaking to spirit or the ancestors
  • Why many of us struggle to trust the magic, intuition, or messages that come through—and why it matters to normalize these stories
  • The invitation to meet not only the soft, light parts of ourselves but also the gritty, raw, dark parts we've been taught to avoid
  • How we can hold both reverence and uncertainty while navigating the unseen realms
If you're someone who…
  • Feels a pull toward your ancestors but doesn't quite know where to begin
  • Has a complicated family history or missing pieces in your lineage
  • Is craving more ritual, seasonal living, or connection to the wheel of the year
  • Finds yourself sensing magic but still questioning whether it's "real enough"
  • Is learning how to be both soft and strong, tender and gritty …you might feel really seen in this one.
