FUNERARY RITES
Deanna is an initiated guide* of the soul as it transforms back into its original state, making its way to the realm of the ancestors. The Guide, often called by the Greek name, a psychopomp, usually has had a calling to do this service. it is an age old practice and reference can be found in Greek, Egyptian and ancient Norse literature. There are many ancient traditions that, through funerary rites, ancestralize their deceased in similar ways.
Ancestralization maintains a healthy society. Healthy ancestors guide the living to know how to live life in integrity. To reconcile our actions in life, either before death or afterward, enables us to become helpful and healed ancestors, once our soul has gone through this process.
Family and friends may be involved with funerary rites through memorializing and grieving their deceased loved one. Deanna facilitates this process in person or long-distance, and ultimately guides their soul to the frontier of the ancestral homelands. Giving this gift to the deceased invariably aids the living in many ways, including healing their relationships with other family and friends, with the deceased and befriending the gift of passage that death teaches us.
Deanna meticulously works to find and guide the departed soul through a myriad of realms beyond the realm of the living. She is trained in both Nahua and Wixarika traditions, having an initiatory rites in 2000 and an extensive apprenticeship to this work, for the rest of her life. She has helped many souls, families, communities and friends over the past years.
One does not have to be of a certain religion, faith, spiritual practice or agnostic or athiest to receive funerary rites. This is a gift from the living to the soul of the deceased.
