A question about pouring libation to the ancestors.

[Lilbit]

Alot of peopole say that you shouldn't pour libation to the troubled souls. Can you make contact with them
to council them help them make it over to ther side. I say this because I've heard of people talking to children ghosts and helping them make it to the other side.

Never heard of it......

I really don't get the emphasis on speaking or sequestering information from spirits or Loas when that self-same information is within each of us.

The pouring of libations is a time time honored tradition... without much true value, done mostly by those who wish to honor the spirit instead of receive it.
