“The Ancestors are thick in the air of October, reminding us that what is remembered, lives. In this workshop, Yeshe Rabbit will offer a catalogue of herbal funerary practices and methods of marking someone’s passing, and together we will create an incense offering and perform a ceremony to connect with ancient spirits of the land, our blood ancestors, or the exemplars and heroes who have influenced us positively. Please bring a photo, item, or other significant representation of an ancestor who is important to you.
Yeshe Rabbit is an herbalist, local business owner, and holy woman. Her Witch’s Garden herbal classes at her Oakland shop, The Sacred Well, as well as classes she teaches at events like the Northern California Women’s Herbal Symposium, are rooted in ancient lore and modern experience. She brings magic to her medicine and medicine into the magical community through the healing power of the plants, stories, and practices of reverence.”
