The veil is thin. The ancestors are near. And this is your invitation to meet them.
On Day of the Dead — one of the most sacred portals of the year — My Little Magic Shop invites you into a heartfelt ceremony honoring those who have crossed over. This is not grief. This is gratitude, remembrance, and love in its most timeless form.
Day of the Dead Ancestor Ceremony: Cacao + Sound Bath is a 90-minute guided ritual led by Isabel — intuitive sound healer, energy practitioner, and Shamanic Practitioner — weaving together three sacred elements: altar building, ceremonial cacao, and a full sound bath journey.
The evening opens with the building of a shared ancestor altar. Guests are warmly invited to bring a small photo, memento, or token representing a loved one who has passed — something that carries their energy and memory. Together, we create a collective space of remembrance and reverence.
From there, Isabel will open the ceremony with sacred cacao — a heart-opening plant medicine used for centuries in ceremony and ritual. As the cacao settles in, guests will lie down and surrender to a full sound bath journey, carried by crystal singing bowls, chimes, and grounding percussion. The vibrations travel deep — softening the body, quieting the mind, and creating a spacious field of connection between the living and those we love beyond the veil.
This is a ceremony of love, not loss. A space to feel held, remembered, and accompanied — by Isabel, by this community, and by the ancestors who walk with you still.
Bring a small photo, memento, or token of someone you wish to honor. It will be placed on the altar and returned to you after the ceremony.
