Publisher's summary

Find out everything there is to know about ancestral veneration and how it works.

Ancestral veneration is not a religion - nor is it worshiping the dead. This ancient and often misunderstood practice is found in spiritualities and cultures all over the world. In the West, our uncomfortable relationship with death has the unfortunate effect of suppressing the natural tendency to love and respect those who’ve gone before. In our culture, the practice tends to be limited to the odd anecdote, heirloom, or artifact. Old pictures under a plastic film in a photo album rarely taken out and explored.

But ancestral worship has survived upheaval, seismic change, and persecution for millennia and is still practiced in many cultures and religions worldwide. What do millions of people know that you don’t? That’s what you’ll discover in this spiritual guide to ancestral veneration.

In this audiobook, you will:

  • Learn how to connect with your ancestors, spirit guides, and guardian angels
  • Master the practices of other spiritualities and religions that openly and widely venerate the ancestors, including Mexican Roman Catholicism and American Hoodoo
  • Discover what spirit guides do and who they are
  • Learn about the impact of ancestral/generational trauma on our society and families
  • Learn how to build an ancestral altar
  • Learn how to please and honor your ancestors at the altar
  • Learn how to recognize signs of contact with the spirit world
  • Learn how to prepare yourself for an encounter with the spirit world
  • Discover how the ancestors, spirit guides, and guardian angels break through to communicate with us during times of crisis
  • Discover why the world needs ancestral veneration

Ancestral Veneration

This is an overall good book for those not only interested in Afro Caribbean religions but also in ancestor veneration. I will caution potential listeners that there will be some discrepancies between the information presented in this book and other Afro-Caribbean religious houses.

Brilliant audible

I like the way the writer connects with her audience as a real person with real struggles. It is not easy for an African-American to begin the process of incorporating indigenous traditions and heritage all the while not being quite sure of what is relevant and valid. Brilliant audible.

Ancestral Veneration

An easy audiobook to understand, once you dive into it. I completed it in a few days. There are good finds within this book. The author attempts to give the listener insight into her background as a Christian but, felt a greater calling into Lukumi. The author informs listeners of her walk and attempts to merge the two.

Nice book, but the reader is off putting

I feel like I could get in this book more if someone else narrated it. He mispronounced a lot of words and then would say they correctly in other sentences. seems like he was just trying to hurry up and read through them.

A great start

This book was a great start for me. I'm on a path of obtaining knowledge about what I'm going through and the signs that have been shown to me. I'm still learning and this book helped with the information I've heard but not understood. I would recommend this book

Pretty good

Pretty through the book on the basics of ancestor veneration. A very detailed list of supplies needed, recipes, etc. The author's personal journey and background given help beginners understand the principles behind the spiritual practice.

I'm buying a couple more for friends

The author makes it simple and in plain freaking English so everyone can understand which is a huge plus! She did such a great job on this book and I'm still amazed at how this book even showed up in the suggestions and I was literally drawn to it. This was an excellent purchase and an excellent audible.
