For many pre-Christian civilizations, the end of the agricultural year signified a shift from the world of the living to the world of the dead. Although contemporary culture compresses this season into a single date - October 31st - our spiritual forebears considered the entire dark season to be the time of the Ancestors. Explore the myths, folklore, ceremonies, and practices of the Underworld season and learn ways to incorporate more ancestral connection into your spiritual practice.

This workshop will be recorded for folks who can't make the Zoom in person, and sent out for download after the workshop concludes.

The workshop fee is $15. Sliding scale ticket options of $5 and $10 are available for folks who face financial obstacles to attending the workshop.
