Our third annual conference, Celebrating Ancestral Wisdom, was held the weekend of Oct 20-21st, 2012 at the Unitarian Universalist Center in San Francisco. See link here for our full conference program. “Celebrating Ancestral Wisdom” recognizes that the collective human dead (both family & spiritual ancestors) are one critical component of earth-honoring ways of life and a source of tremendous support for navigating a conscious future. Similar to our previous two conferences, we explored our theme from an interfaith/multicultural perspective that included dynamic interactive sessions & embodied ceremonies (Oct 20th) and inclusive, earth-honoring rituals on the land in and around San Francisco (Oct 21st). Thanks to the over 100 participants who made this third annual conference a success!
