Understand that how we in the diaspora do this is not done this way in the Isese tradition of Ifa in Nigeria. However, those in the west have adopted a way of doing this that has been practiced for years and still opens the door for progress. People of all backgrounds may do this.
Honoring your ancestors is not limited to a particular practice, background, or culture. Those in the diaspora have been honoring them in ways unknown to us. From picture frames on the wall to pictures on an entry table. From stories of them when they were alive to our experiences with them. Just because it wasn't called reverence does not mean we didn't do it.
Many cultures, African, Asian, Indigenous, Latin, and more honor their ancestors year-round and not just on special days. Their blood runs through your veins. Although you do not know all their names and some of you may not know any of your ancestors due to your circumstances, it doesn't mean they are not a part of you. Honoring them will bring not only direction in your life but a sense of belonging and understanding.
You are amazing because they existed. They are your door to the things you do not understand. They are your guides, your protectors when you do not think you have them, the ones to hold your hands to bring you closer to what you are destined to do and be in this life.
The Ancestors are your foundation. Start with them and all else will become evident.
May those who start on this journey continue to be guided by their Ancestors and their Ori.
