Step 1: Create an ancestor altar. Choose a low-traffic area in your home and build your altar consisting of photos, candles, and items of sentimental value related to your ancestor.
Step 2: Ask your ancestor for the best way to honour them. Wait for a response through dreams, synchronicity, and messages through your own intuition.
Step 3: Lay your chosen offering out on the altar and check on it/refresh it as often as possible.
Types Of Offerings To Give:
The offering depends on what the ancestor enjoyed while here on Earth. For example, if your ancestor was a smoker, buy a pack of cigarettes and offer it to them through the altar.
Also, during special occasions, it is a great honour to include your ancestors. You could do this by laying out an extra plate for them during Christmas or Thanksgiving dinners, and leave the plate on the altar for the duration of the meal.
A prayer/conversation with your ancestor is also considered an offering in its own right. Stand over the altar and say gratitudes towards your ancestors for guiding and protecting you.
