Traditional Character
Ancestor veneration appears in spiritual and folk traditions throughout the world. Practices vary enormously, but many share the understanding that the dead remain part of the fabric of family, memory, and community.

De Rituales Ancestor Incense is formulated to help create a ritual environment centered on remembrance, connection, familiarity, and respectful communication with one’s ancestors.

Its purpose is not simply to “summon the dead,” but to support the quieter work of honoring lineage, tending memory, strengthening relationship, and making space for those who are welcomed at the ancestral table.

A Note on Boundaries
Ancestor work does not require opening the door to every spirit simply because they share your bloodline.

Practitioners are encouraged to work with clear intention and discernment, welcoming only those ancestors or guiding spirits who approach in goodwill and whose presence supports the health and integrity of the working.

Respect for the dead and respect for your own boundaries belong in the same practice.

Safety
For ritual incense use only. Do not ingest or apply to the skin.

Burn only on a heat-safe surface in an appropriate incense burner. Never leave burning charcoal or incense unattended.

Use in a well-ventilated area and avoid directly inhaling concentrated smoke.

Keep away from curtains, paper, dried botanicals, and other flammable materials.

Keep away from children and pets. Some animals are especially sensitive to smoke and aromatic botanicals; ventilate appropriately and remove animals from the area when necessary.

Charcoal remains extremely hot long after visible burning has stopped. Allow it to cool completely before disposal.

Magick supports action; it does not replace it.
