Frankie Castanea—aka @ChaoticWitchAunt—draws on their own complex journey of ancestral reclamation to guide readers as they consider questions of cultural and spiritual identity, lineage, and belonging.

Emphasizing that any process of reconnection must navigate traumas such as colonization and assimilation, Castanea offers emotional guidance as well as practical advice on topics such as:

• Discovering your individual ancestral practices
• Connecting with ancestral plant and animal allies
• Navigating oral tradition
• Identifying reliable sources of research
• Establishing mentors
