My friends! Blessed Samhain, Día de Muertos, or however you observe this weekend’s threshold. I have been thinking a LOT about ghosts lately, and what produces them — in the Land, in the Culture, and along our Lineages.

I wanted to share a longer teaching on the subject, especially as it relates to Ancestral Lineage Healing work. We have no shortage of ghosty sh*t in the world due to our current cultural moment, and all of the unsettled energy the past 500+ years has created. It’s a worthy inquiry if you’re thinking about approaching Ancestor work in any form, knowing the reality that you’ll likely find some of that unsettled stuff on your lineages.

To me, this is the point of any Ancestral tending + reconnection work; the reality that cultural repair becomes possible when we truly re-establish connection with the benevolent + venerated dead. We’ve got a lot of work to do, y’all, and the Ancestors can absolutely help us do it. They likely just have to reckon with some of that shared history first.

I will admit that this particular teaching is a BIG bite at the high-level reality of Ancestral + Cultural Repair work. FYI - it is NOT meant to be done overnight. It’s not possible. And, not skillful to try to blast into those densities head first. This particular recording is simply meant to be food for thought, knowing that if you’re going to start anywhere, you gotta establish base level connection with your Ancestors first + foremost. And, ideally, you take a few years of consistent connection + tending to do so.

The content I talk about in this Podcast are the deeper level we navigate in the Ancestral Lineage Healing work that I hold, both in 1:1 sessions and group spaces. I always offer the private support, but if you’re interested in the community element of group tending, our next cohort of Ancestor circles starts in December. Apply ASAP so we can schedule your initial 1:1 call ;)

I hope you enjoy this episode, and, as always — reach out with any questions. It was overzealous to think I could touch on so many dimensions in one episode, so I’ll likely be sharing more in the future on Ancestral Healing + Cultural repair. Much love, friends — to you + your people! xoxo Teagan

ANCESTOR CIRCLES / GROUP LINEAGE HEALING

APPLICATIONS for the Winter Cohort NOW OPEN!!!

If you’ve been wanting to connect directly with your own Ancestors as Council, come join us! We gather in support of community, and deepen into relationship with our Lineages. We bring healing + tending where it is needed, while also emphasizing reconnection with our ancestors as Kin + Council. Here’s what’s included;

* 1:1 private meeting with Teagan to understand your Ancestral landscape + identify which lineage you’re ready to deepen into connection with!

* 6 group calls, 2hrs each ~ December + January, deepening into the Lineage Healing process alongside community. Guided process + group integration.

The group container is a much more financially supportive option for the long-term commitment to this work, and has the benefit of learning from one another’s Ancestral histories as a way of weaving the larger web of relations!

Always sliding scale, suggested $222-450 for the entire journey. If you’ve already worked with me 1:1 in this work, you can skip the intro call and join the group tending sliding scale $175-333.
