Taking an eclectic and inclusive look at different methods, rituals, and lore connected to ancestor veneration and worship in various world cultures and spiritual traditions both ancient and modern.

From the practices and festivals of Shintoism, and Buddhism, to those of Africa and spiritualities of the African diaspora, to observances in the Latin Americas and Mexico, to more blended modern traditions of NeoPagans of faiths inspired by a myriad of pre-Christian cultures (Celtic, Kemetic, Babylonian, Norse, Baltic, etc) - all discussions related to the topic are welcome and encouraged.

The intention of this Tribe is to foster a spirit of sharing and education, so that those who wish to learn to (re)connect with or strengthen their connection to their ancestors may glean ideas and wisdom from cross-cultural studies and experimentation. Various approaches to altars, shrines, worship, offerings, prayers, rituals, etc will be explored.
