Samhain
Translates into end of summer
Also known as -Halloween ,Devils night and the Witches New Year
It is the time of year when the veil between worlds is the thinnest making it easier to connect with the dead .
Rituals from a solitary witches view-
A dumb supper - Dumb supper traditions - I always set a place with food for the person who passed with flowers and candles and sometimes a note ( this applies to animals too)
Not Everyone does everything the same Take the tradition and make it your own, To each his/her own
Lighting a candle - Its simple Just a light a candle of any type,shape or size. I normally let it burn til Mid night (12:01 ) you can say some words or make a small alter with flowers and something meaningful.
Please remember to practice good fire safety when burning candles do not leave them unattended and if you become tired please blow them out (your loved one/ones will understand)
As always its the intentions and belief you have that makes everything work
And just for fun the story of the Jack O' Lantern
Like Music you hear? - find it Here under Carnival of Lost Souls along with other great Music!
