AGF 110 - Answering Hard Questions - Unedited

With before and after banter for levels Spark and above.Trigger warning on this episode. Dealing with your family, both the current family and the Ancestors, can be very challenging. We answer two listener questions about these topics.Family who are fully aware of pagan beliefs but get offended if something is ever posted or mentioned that isn't aligned with their Christian worldview. At the same time they feel they can post what they want.Also"I am just starting to deepen my practice as a heathen and I find myself very interested in speaking to and reaching out to my ancestors, especially when I listen to you both discussing it on the podcast.However, A lot of my ancestors were terrible people. (redacted) I think this might be a very divisive issue as I am sure some folks would advocate for respecting the ancestors regardless, but my morality goes hand in hand with my spiritual practice so I simply can't do that. Alternatively, would it be advisable simply not to venerate the ancestors altogether in my case?”–Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/around-grandfather-fire/messageSuggest a topic or a guest: https://forms.gle/dYrQUpyE7VPDGnUP8Our Patreon https://www.patreon.com/aroundgrandfatherfireOur Buy Me A Coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/agfpodcast--Copyright 2023--Tinder Tony, Heidi, Claire, Hanna, Kristine, Laura Loki, Imtir, Casper K., Blkcat88, Craig, Emi, Voyager, Josie, Jean CavanaughSpark M Anon, Indi Latrani, Katie, Dashifen, Melkor, Alissa Addy, LaDena, Marco, Amanda S., Annora, Boojumhaus, Nolan, Elanor Faithful,  Douglas S.
