The veneration of ancestral spirits is one of the most ancient practices for honoring the wisdom of those who came before. In Etruscan religion the ancestral spirit and the Spirits of Nature were seen as one and the same. Shrines of this nature were used as a focal point to communicate with the “spirit” realm and faery realm. Ancestral shrines can be used to commemorate family events such as births, crossings, anniversaries of all kinds and any occasion where you would want to align with the momentum of the past.
This ancestral shrine is the same one seen in Raven Grimassi’s “Hereditary Witchcraft” where he discusses “the Lare”.
