Samhain… the Feast of the Dead, also known as Halloween, the ancient time of the Celtic New Year when
spirits of the long dead converse. Do not be afraid. Death is not to be feared. Samhain is our time
to reflect on friends we have lost… and changes in our lives. Take stock of the
past and come to terms with it. Move on. Look forward to the future.
The night glows red from huge sacred bonfires and Celtic warriors with
costumes of animal heads and skins drink deep from the mystical chalice and foretell
each other's futures. Before the Samhain
embers die new fires are lit in homes from the sacred bonfire. Protection from evil and precious warmth through
the long cold Celtic winter.
I am excited!! And I am participating in Haunted Week too. This is so much fun. I love Halloween!!
