Velitas y Raíces — Honoring Our Ancestors | Apapáchate Women’s Circle

You are the altar.
And this month, we turn toward the altars of memory—
toward those who came before us.

Join us for Velitas y Raíces, our November Apapáchate Women’s Circle, a sacred gathering to honor our ancestors and hold space for the tenderness of grief. Together, we’ll reflect, breathe, and remember that healing is not about letting go—it’s about allowing love to move through us in new ways.

Beyond Día de Muertos, this circle reminds us that remembrance is not bound to a single day—it is a living practice. Through ritual, meditation, sound, and open-hearted conversation, we’ll create a space of connection, healing, and renewal.
