A guide to connecting with your ancestors and healing your lineage.
Exploring the diverse and dynamic ancestral veneration rites of the
ancient Mesoamericans as well as those practiced in contemporary
curanderismo, Erika Buenaflor shows how we can draw from these
traditions to reconnect with our ancestors, deepen our healing
journeys, and shape our lives. She explains how ancestors contain a
sacred energy that can continue in their direct physical heirs, be
reborn in the landscape at sacred sites, or manifest in other
beings that inhabited the same lands. She describes the deification
process of esteemed ancestors and how this opens access to special
powers for those sharing that ancestor’s lineage. Buenaflor
examines the sacred offerings and ceremonies used to invoke, renew,
and strengthen an ancestor’s soul energies, which in turn ensured
their aid, guidance, and intervention, as well as their well-being
and comfort in the afterlife. She shares numerous veneration rites
and healing practices to strengthen your bonds with your ancestors,
including limpia rites, ritual craft-making, trance journeys,
shamanic breathwork, energy work with past and present lives,
sacred gardening, and ancestral altar-making. She introduces you to
nepantla spirituality, the path of reclaiming sacred liminal space,
and shows how you can heal your ancestral lineage and reclaim your
esteemed ancestors, those who anchor you with a feeling of
belonging to something greater, divine, and beautiful. Whether you
are able to create a long and detailed family tree or have no
knowledge of your grandparents or even parents, this book offers
many ways to connect with your spiritual forebears, heal your
lineage, and receive spiritual aid as you reclaim your ancestors
and welcome them into your life.
