Transforming Domination Culture from the Inside Out

Resourcing Ourselves for What’s Ahead

January 1, 2025 By Angela Watrous

Dearests, as we wake to this new year, we know there are many challenges ahead. We are all being called to show up with our full presence and step into the fulfillment of our heart’s and our soul’s purpose in this life.

It’s time for resourcing. 

Registration opens today for my Spring Ancestral Lineage Healing Circle—an 8-week journey into resourcing yourself by invoking ritual clearing and protection, connecting with bigger-than-human supportive powers, and unburdening yourself and your living family through ancestral healing.

In an uncertain world, we need the jetpack of our wise and supportive ancestors at our back.

The ancestral lineage healing process holds that the dead are real. They are not all equally well in spirit. They impact us and we impact them. And they can change, so that they help instead of hinder us.

In my lifetime of unceasing spiritual exploration and healing work, the transformations that arise from ancestral lineage healing stand out as particularly unburdening, supportive, and expansive, and I’m not alone in that experience.

If you’re feeling daunted by the year ahead, join us for this powerful 8-week ancestral healing circle, starting February 3.

We’re going to need all the warm resourcing and support we can get this year—from ourselves, each other, and our ancestors and spiritual supporters. You don’t need to go this alone. 

Much love and empathy,
Angela
