Ancestor Paths the Sequel

Every human being alive has ancestors (deceased relatives) and it does not matter what walk of life you are from.  We can all relate to death on some level and this keeps us connected whether we realize it or not.  Because of this and for many other reasons, so many are intrigued with spirit communication and ancestral reverence.  Spirit communication has been long practiced, not just by our ancient ones, but by today's aspirants and spiritualist (espiritita) as well.  In general, spirit communication proves the continuity of life after death which in turn gives comfort to those missing and in need of guidance from their deceased loved ones.   Yet, for devotees, the spirit world is explored for information and truths about human and spirit life.   The primary purpose of this site is to help individuals maintain that spirit connection for a better way of life.  Whereas most people seek religion to be saved, I am offering people the opportunity through guided spirituality and the connection to spirit to save themselves.

I created this site to highlight the importance of ancestor veneration and the importance of african spirituality from a broad prospective that is not discriminatory.  And although the focus of this site pertains to African culture, spirituality, and the various religious practices and traditions of our African ancestors such as Egungun/Egun, Ifa/Yoruba, Lucumi/Lukumi, Orisa/Orisha worship, Santeria, and Vodou/Voodoo; the spiritually guided techniques on this site can be applied to just about anyone within any culture and that includes even those who are interested in such things as altars and altar setup, ancestral/spirit prayers, healing, life after death, and guardian angels.  This site was also created to bring positive awareness to those who are mis or uninformed and to bring enlightenment to those searching for good sound information on how to honor their ancestors, guardian angels, and spirit guides.

The concept of ancestor veneration and eggun/egun worship is not "witch" craft in the negative context as many have been led to believe.  Aspirants and initiates of Candomble, Ifa/Yoruba, Lucumi/Lukumi, Orisa/Orisha, Regla de Ocha, Santeria, Vodou/Voodoo and the egungun/egun communities take pride in this form of ancient culture.  However, ancestor reverence is totally misunderstood by millions because of misinterpreted, hidden, lost, and forgotten historical information on its true purpose and foundation especially pertaining to Black Amerikans.  However, there are those who are familiar with its vision but have chosen to take a relaxed attitude toward its importance.  Either way and in many cases, it is my belief that many of the problems that we suffer today in our families and in our communities from mental illness, family dysfunction, verbal and physical abuse, drug addiction, violence, alcoholism, suicide, and other forms of self-destructive behaviors can come from spirits, ancestors, or karmic connections to our loved ones who have not been appeased, properly cared for in death, or on some level they have not elevated into the "LIGHT" or "HIGHER VIBRATIONAL REALMS" so that their souls can be at peace. And since they are not at peace, these entities cause us, in the living, to suffer in our families and in our communities and as a result we continue to experience social malevolence, emotional and mental confusions, and spiritual problems that in many cases are directly linked to our severed connection to our past, resulting in repeated neglect of not properly take care of our ANCESTORS.
