ANCESTOR RITUAL
A Samhain gathering with Geraldine
A Samhain Society Dead Good Festival Event
Sunday 1 November
1:30pm - 3:00pm
Flints, Newgate Gap, Margate
£15
As the year turns towards darkness and Samhain brings us to the threshold between worlds, join Geraldine for a contemplative ancestral correspondence rite exploring remembrance, gratitude, healing and connection.
Together, we’ll enter a guided meditation journey to meet with our ancestors, make offerings of gratitude and cultivate a deeper relationship with the unseen.
Held within a shared and welcoming space, this alchemising grief ritual invites us to honour the cycle of life and death, give thanks for the third harvest, and acknowledge the ancestors and more-than-human companions who accompany us through the turning of the seasons.

MEET YOUR GUIDE
As an interdisciplinary fine artist, Geraldine’s work is informed by an exploration of spiritual practices and a deep engagement with more-than-human worlds. She works in correspondence with site-led interventions, allowing place, landscape and the more-than-human to shape and inform her practice.
An initiate in Western esoteric traditions, Geraldine has cultivated a lifelong personal practice that she describes as folkcraft. Her work as a folkwytch is deeply rooted in animist connection, forging a relationship with the seen and unseen world.
Within the public dimension of her esoteric practice, Geraldine works with life-cycle rituals and holds space within the expanded field. She creates temporary sites of participatory sacredness, offering gateways towards reconciliation with our ancestors and our more-than-human kin.
