Ancestor Reverence

HOME PAGE

Every human being alive has ancestors and it does not matter what walk of life you are from; we can all relate to death on some level and this keeps us connected whether we realize it or not.  Because of this and for many other reasons, so many (of various cultures) are intrigued and desire spirit communication.  For one, it proves the continuity of life after death which in turn gives comfort to those missing their loved ones.  The primary purpose of this site is to help individuals to maintain that spirit connection for a better way of life.  Whereas most people seek religion to be saved, I am offering people the opportunity through guided spirituality and the connection to spirit to save themselves. 

I created this site to highlight the importance of ancestor veneration and the importance of african spirituality from a broad prospective that is not discriminatory.  And although the focus of this site pertains to African culture, spirituality and the various religious practices and traditions of our African ancestors such as Yoruba, Ifa, Lucumi, Santeria, Voodoo - Vodou, Orisa - Orisha worship, and Eggun or Egungun; the spiritually guided techniques on this site can be applied to anyone within any culture and that includes even those who are interested in such things as altars and altar setup, healing, various prayers, guardian angels, life after death, and black death.  This site was also created to bring positive awareness to those who are mis or uninformed and to bring enlightenment to those searching for good sound information on how to honor their ancestors, guardian angels and spirit guides.  

The concept of ancestor veneration and eggun worship is not witch craft in a negative context as many have come to believe.  Aspirants and initiates of Yoruba, Ifa, Candomble, Lukumi, Orisa - Orisha, Regla de Ocha, Santeria, Vodou - Voodoo and the eggun-egungun societies take pride in this form of African culture.   However, Ancestor reverence is totally misunderstood by millions because of misinterpreted, hidden, lost, and forgotten historical information on its true purpose and foundation especially pertaining to Black Amerikans.  However, there are those who are familiar with its vision but have taken a relaxed attitude toward its importance.  Either way and in many cases, it is my belief that many of the problems that we suffer today in our families and in our communities from mental illness, family dysfunction, verbal and physical abuse, drug addiction, violence, alcoholism, suicide, and other forms of self-destructive behaviors can come from spirits, ancestors, or karmic connections to our loved ones who have not been appeased, properly cared for in death, or on some level have not elevated into the Light of God so that their souls can be at peace.  And since they are not at peace, these entities cause us, in the living, to suffer in our families and in our communities and as a result we continue to experience social malevolence, emotional and mental confusions, and spiritual problems that in many cases are directly linked to our severed connection to our past, resulting in repeated neglect of not properly taking care of our ANCESTORS.

  For me, each time we save a deceased soul and help it to elevate,

 this becomes one less spirit able to cause havoc in the world.

I write and dedicate this work to all those on the other side.

Peace and Blessings Always!

Thank You with Many Blessings for Visiting!
