Ancestral Magic

WOMEN JOURNEYING THROUGH THE SEASONS TOGETHER
Connect deeply with your heritage, nature, and community through this seven class series with seasonal gatherings in Port Angeles and Sequim, Washington.
Embark on a transformative journey of discovery as you uncover the wisdom of your ancestors and the land they cherished.
Have you ever wondered, Who in my family lived closest to the land where they were from? This course invites you to step through time and space to find the answer. Together, we will walk the path to your grandmother’s home, sit by her fireside, and explore the rich cultural traditions and folkways passed down through generations.
You’ll learn how to infuse these ancient lessons into your own life through crafts, food, and herbal remedies. With each step, we will uncover the deep connections between heritage, land, and spiritual practice—creating a foundation for personal growth and healing.
Through guided journey work and hands-on activities, you’ll strengthen your bond with your ancestral lineage while building a supportive community of fellow seekers. This is more than a class—it’s an invitation to rediscover your roots, embrace the gifts of your ancestors, and enrich your life in a way that is meaningful, practical, and deeply personal.
