Cleveland, OH: Buckland Museum of Witchcraft & Magick

Buckland Museum of Witchcraft & Magick 2155 Broadview Road, Cleveland, OH, United States

Join me as I return to one of my favorite places, the Buckland Museum of Witchcraft & Magick, for a workshop on how to develop a relationship with your ancestors for spiritual growth and development. Ancestor veneration is a key component of many spiritual/occult practices, but very few people know where to start. Often, misunderstanding of these concepts leads to cultural appropriation and less than successful magical efforts because of the disconnect between the practitioner and Spirit. This workshop is an introduction to genealogical research as well as to making your magic more powerful through working with your kinfolk. We’ll also discuss sensitive topics about problematic ancestors that you may have in your bloodline. Meet Your Badass Ancestors is open to anyone, regardless of cultural/ethnic background or religious belief system, who is interested in learning how to work with their ancestors in a spiritual context. Copies of my book, Badass Ancestors, will be available for sale as well. Please note, tickets are non-refundable. There will be no physical tickets sent out. Your name used at check out will be on the attendee list.
