The Ancestors

Smells alluring, even welcoming. I had to taper off use because it made my ancestors *too* active, disturbing my dreams and inviting problematic phenomena -- but I have some ancestral complications that make it a riskier area of engagement for me. In my opinion, my experiences demonstrate both the efficacy of the materia and the wisdom in following the instructions and cautions included with each order.

It's the time of year when I'm deep into ancestral work again, and nearing the end of this particular incense. Such a noticeable shift in the air as soon as it lights up. An invaluable tool at the ancestor altar.

Communing with the earth, but so grounded that it becomes the stillness of the dead. It was a bit disconcerting at first, but I guess that's what it feels like to be at the veil

The first time I worked with this series I felt myself pulled deep into the Earth herself, and connecting to all Whom She had ever birthed. There was a strong message that these too are our ancestors and available for both reverence and connection. This materia acts as a “signal booster” in all my ancestral contacts.
I have since used materia from this series as an offering to my beloved human ancestors as well as in workings and offerings to Hekate, whom this is perfect for.

I bought this series after it came out to celebrate Dia de los Muertos and connect more deeply with my ancestors. After lighting it, I really heard their messages and heard their voices loud and clear. I've always been sensitive to the dead so it didn't take much for them to show up and be heard. I did have to spray Sol after to clear the field as I had some mischievous folx want to linger. I've developed a solid relationship with my loving, well ancestors now and this series is largely to thank for it.

This powder sits on my Hermanubis altar and a little sprinkle with an offering or an ask works really well. Combines well with Saturn materia (Saturn rules my IC). When combined with Saturn, can bring some old lost memories that sometime feels like from a different lifetime.

Connects me with my ancestors and served as a way to honor them.

Brought immediate connection with my ancestors, who showed up through my parents suddenly finding never-revealed heirlooms. Really incredible.

My dead truly fux with this incense. I don’t know how else to put it, I just wish I could grab some more. Clarified and strengthened the connection, in the sense of… we were already on the phone, but the call got clearer. I’m on the waitlist for a reason.

I ordered the Ancestors oil to work through ancestral trauma during a moon profection year, and to connect with my beloved companion dog of many years who’d passed away. This material is *very powerful* as it really knocked me on my ass the first time I used it. But it really is amazing for its purpose and integrated into my altar work and upcoming plans for Samhain.
