What would you say to western occultists saying that there are no ancestors?
gpt
It’s impossible and illogical . If it does not have a lineage or ancestry it’s not seen as valid . The only reason we are alive today is because of our ancestors . Scientifically we share their blood and DNA . They are linked to us directly from our body . Western occultism loves to make themselves the center of all power.

What can Western-occultists actually do that is ancestral in nature? That is, as far as sorcery goes... This is something I've been struggling with lately.

Maintain an ancestral connection through praying for them , setting an altar space for them , etc . It depends on the practice

We don't have an ancestral practice though... unless you want to consider something like Catholicism that.

Westerners had religion before Catholism.
