The Ancestral Line Visualization reconnects us with the surviving Consciousness of the ancestors. Suggestions for clarifying our dreams help us to understand their message, and we embody those messages through the creation of invocations, chants, music, art, and writing.

This course invites participants to explore and reclaim the wisdom of their ancestors. Through both objective methods (lineage research) and subjective practices (spirit messages, dreams), students will "remember" ancestral stories and apply them to the present. Reverence practices include sacred space creation, chants, music, art, writing, and film. Participants are encouraged to research both their bio-cultural inheritance and a chosen “affinity culture.” Level Two participants receive advanced support for healing inherited challenges and may inspire community-building among Level One students. By harvesting ancestral gifts and tending to ancestral wounds, students cultivate radical self-acceptance and deeper spiritual connection..

Ritual is intention in motion. This course teaches the core principles and practices of ritual design—whether aligned with natural cycles (New/Full Moon), physical healing, emotional release, or joyful embodiment. Yeye Teish will offer guidance on sacred space creation, oracle consultation, symbol interpretation, charm-making, and ceremony. Students will engage with global indigenous traditions, with emphasis on the African diaspora, while exploring their own ancestral practices. Level Two participants deepen their ritual skills and explore how to bring spiritual practices into activism and community transformation. Sessions include lectures, media, and "ritual labs" to define, design, and evaluate impact within one’s chosen community. Activists receive tools to infuse their organizing with spiritual power and may serve as mentors for newer students.
