Tonight I made an alter to honor the many people that I've lost in my life. In that alter I included 3 candles, one for the past, one for the present, and one for the future. Today I had an appointment with Tami Kent. It was very powerful and empowering. I might write about it in the future, but for now I will add a blessing from her book. I celebrate this blessing and included it in my day of the dead ritual tonight. I sure have a lot of guardian angels out there!
Great Grandma Alice
Grandma Lynn
Grandpa Brune
Grandma White
Auntie Dawn
Uncle Lynnie
Aunt Inger
Brandon Silvera
Ben Lorosingal
Bruce Finney
Uncle Bill (whom I can't find a photo but I'm honoring you too)
And all of those unnamed or forgotten....I honor and celebrate the path you have left.
Ancestor Blessing
I call on the women and men of my mother line.
I call on the women and men of my father line.
I call on the lineages of those who have supported my journey in this life.
I call on the spirits of this land.
Bring your strength, your beauty, your dreams, your joy to me - the one who now carries on the work of our lineage.
Bring energy and light to my life so that I may do this work of transforming wounds, nurturing hope, celebrating joy, and sharing love;
I am building the structures and sowing the seeds of a bountiful life for myself and for all who will come after me.
Know that your life and energy, all of your steps, were a blessing.
May you rest in peace, held by spirit.
The light that you carried lives on.
I honor you, ancestors.
I give thanks for you.
I ask for your blessing, your energy, to flow- like a sacred river- through my body and life.
