Towards the Dark Months
October 8th, 2009As Pagans, we can see the wheel is turning towards long nights and short days. This is a time for those of us on the path of the old, to embrace, take stock and plan for the comming light.
The next Sabbat, is regarded by many as a very important and potent celebration………Samhain.
This festival is one of the cross quarter days of the Pagan Calender and is also an extremely reflective time.
Samhain, otherwise known in popular culture as “Halloween”, is one of a few times society try to understand its roots. However, for Pagans, it is a very spiritual time, when we invite in to our lives, those that have passed before us. It is a time to say thankyou to our loved ones who have passed recently and to honour our distant ancestors who gave their lives, in the hope that we can practice our religion in peace.
Whatever, we decide to do on this blessed night. Blessings be to all of you Jo x
