Happy Halloween, Samhain
.jpg)
Samhain means, "Summer's End and is the Celtic New Year. It is also a fire festival where big bonfire's were built to welcome home ancestors. It is a time to get rid of anything not needed for the coming Winter. Divination is done especially at this time of year as the veil between the worlds is the thinnest and is a time of remembrance of family and friends who have passed over. Carnelian (orange) and Amethyst (purple) are the colours of Samhain. The Ogham Blackthorn, representing the dark half of the year is associated with Samhain and is a hearty wood used for walking sticks. It is a time of preparing for the rebirth of Yule.
