Scallions

You can regrow scallions by leaving an inch attached to the roots and place them in a small glass with a little water in a well-lit room.

When garlic begins to sprout, you can put them in a glass with a little water and grow garlic sprouts. The sprouts have a mild flavor than garlic and can be added to salads, pasta and other dishes.

Carrots

Basil

Put clippings from basil with 3 to 4-inch stems in a glass of water and place it in direct sunlight. When the roots are about 2 inches long, plant them in pots to and in time it will grow a full basil plant.

Celery

Cut off the base of the celery and place it in a saucer or shallow bowl of warm water in the sun. Leaves will begin to thicken and grow in the middle of the base, then transfer the celery to soil.

Romaine Lettuce

Any advice on connecting with and/or communicating with Ancestral Spirits?

Yes. A cup of water, a safe candle, a cigar dipped in honey to sweeten them. All of these on an altar in your home, with a picture of some of the recently deceased ancestors. Sit with them everyday.

Does anyone know if this is from a particular tradition or not?

palomayombe

Yup. Pretty much every Carribean tradition that utilized the wisdom of the American Spiritualism movement. So, basically all of them.

I also add flowers, white ones are always a good idea but if I'm specifically honoring/praying with specific ancestors I use their favorite flowers/colors

“When creating great work, any artist or designer can expect to face obstacles. For Emory Douglas, the obstacles were set in place by the U.S. Federal Government. As the revolutionary artist and minister of culture for the Black Panthers from 1967 to the early 1980s, Douglas and his fellow party members endured acts of sabotage by the FBI. According to a congressional report, those acts included spraying production equipment with synthetic fecal scents, ransacking offices, and destroying shipments of newspapers that featured Douglas’ controversial graphics.” AIGA

The most intimate thing we can do is to allow people we love most see us at our worst. At our lowest. At our weakest. True intimacy happens when nothing is perfect.
