Happy Halloween to Everyone today!
Its a day that has become about treats and tricks, dressing up and being scary but it is a day that presents the Eve of All Saints Day.
Historically Christians Celebrated the souls of loved ones that have passed on. Some cultures even today celebrate by putting on a meal and candles to welcome the passed loved ones.
It also has been marked as a Celtic celebration Samhain marking the beginning of a new year. It was believed from the Eve of this day ( today ) to the next this was a time neither Old or New. It was also there was no time boundaries so the boundary between our world and the next, between the living and the dead, natures forces etc they were intermingled on this day.
The image of the Witch was originally the wise old woman - the Earth Goddess who wore black to stand by as the old year left and the new began but over yrs the image became a witch.
So theres a bit behind this fun, scary, mystic day......I like to think my passed loved ones are nearby today......
Happy Haunting and Enjoy what this day has become!
