This free 3-day journey is designed for those who feel the whispers of their ancestors and seek to deepen that sacred connection.

Throughout the summit, you’ll be guided by healers, witches, and magical practitioners into the depths of ancestral wisdom. I’m honored to present my online class on October 29 at 6 PM CST, where we’ll explore the origins of the Day of the Dead, its evolution through colonization, Christianity, and modern influences, and the significance of key Aztec deities in this sacred tradition.

This summit offers a truly transformative experience, including:

🌼 Dates: October 28th-30th A 3-day journey into ancestral magic.
