Ancestor’s Ceremony

All Hallow’s Eve Boundless Love Weekend Retreat
A Weekend of Dedication and Love for Our Ancestors

Retreat Dates | November 7-9, 2025

Retreat Overview:

We are moving into the sacred time of year where cultures across the Earth remember, love, and celebrate the ancestors. Known as Samhain, El Dia de Los Muertos, and All Hallow’s Eve, this is a time of honoring and remembering. It is a season of turning inward, of ritual, celebration, and wildness. The veil between the worlds grows thin, allowing us to connect deeply with those who have come before us.

Many avoid this “darkening time” with distractions, but this gateway is a powerful and sacred initiation within the solar cycle of the ancient mystery schools. This Boundless Love Weekend Retreat is a time of conscious remembrance, reverence, and ritual, celebrating the Ancestors through a Heart Medicine Ceremony and practices that help us recognize that life and death are not separate.

Together, we will create an ancestral altar to honor our dearly departed, engage in Despacho ceremony, and celebrate life and lineage through song, dance, and ceremony. This retreat is an opportunity for deep ancestral healing, clearing generational wounds, and stepping into a future of conscious creation.

Why Two Nights Matter:

Through years of facilitating these ceremonies, we have witnessed the immense benefit of gathering for two nights or more. This extended time allows our nervous systems to fully rest and integrate, providing the spaciousness needed to enter the medicine space in a grounded and productive way. The benefit of staying for the full experience is profound, and we encourage all participants to honor this time with us.

Join Us:

This retreat is an opportunity to step into the power of remembrance, honoring your lineage, and receiving the blessings of your ancestors. Through ceremony, song, dance, and sacred communion, we open the doorway to boundless love and healing across generations.

With love and in sacred reciprocity, we welcome you.
