The Gay Pendulum

how is that Mallorie Vaudoise ancestor book? 🤔

I have not read it yet. I just heard two interviews with the author that I found really thoughtful. I had never really been into ancestor work because many of mine were assholes, until I took a workshop last year where the idea of “calling out” your asshole ancestors came up. I really like the idea in that book of honoring not just blood ancestors but also affinity ancestors. So many of us have chosen families that have stronger bonds than blood and I think there is a lot of beauty in honoring that. It seems like a book that can be applied to a lot of different traditions and isn’t so “this is how it has to be” and I appreciate that.
