Samhain Circle:
Threshold of Ancestors

Join Lisa Jara (she/her) and her guest, Ixchel Lunar (they/we/elle), for a Samhain gathering to tend your altar, ground in the cyclical rhythms of autumn and begin a safe ancestral practice!

🌕 Full Moon in Taurus 🌕
Wednesday, November 5th
10am PST / 12pm CST / 1pm EST / 7pm CET
free attendance
(replay available)

Samhain marks the turning of the year, when the descent into winter begins and the presence of the ancestors grows closer. This gathering offers you a safe, supportive way to step into that threshold with reverence.

Over 90 minutes, we’ll honor the energy of Samhain, learn what ancestors are, both well and unwell, and explore how to prepare a seasonal altar rooted in ancestral presence.

You’ll be guided through a presencing practice you can return to anytime and connect with one well ancestor through the intermediary of a guide.

The replay is available until November 9,
11.59pm PST (early morning EST/Europe)!

Samhain Circle Flow

🍂 We come together for 90 minutes

🍂 There will be ample time for sharing, acknowledging and anchoring our individual experiences

This workshop is for anyone longing to feel more grounded in their body, more connected to the cycles of nature, and more resourced in their relationship with the Unseen.

There’s no prior experience needed!
Come as you are, with a cozy space, a warm drink, a pen, and paper.
A replay will be available for a limited time.

Afterwards, you’ll know how to …
