Use this moment to express your fears, dreams, challenges, and hopes. Think of it as a spiritual check-in, where you allow yourself to be fully seen, heard, and held by the ancestral spirits.

Whether you’re seeking guidance, comfort, or just a moment to vent, this practice helps you open a spiritual dialogue, process emotions, and receive intuitive messages or signs from the other side.

✨ Why it’s powerful:

• Builds your relationship with your ancestral line

• Creates space for emotional release and inner clarity
