Honouring the Ancestors: Rituals for Samhain Night
Manage episode 517204854 series 3586207
Samhain, traditionally celebrated on October 31st, is one of the most sacred nights on the Wheel of the Year. It marks the end of the harvest and the beginning of winter—the dark half of the year. This festival is often referred to as the “Witch’s New Year,” a time when the veil between the living and the spirit world is believed to be at its thinnest. This thinning of the veil allows for easier communication with spirits, including ancestors and deceased loved ones.
Honouring the dead on Samhain is a deeply personal and spiritual practice. It provides a moment of reflection, remembrance, and connection with those who have passed. By acknowledging their presence, we strengthen the bond between past and present, bridging the realms of life and death. One of the most potent ways to connect with our ancestors during Samhain is through the creation of an ancestral altar, accompanied by rituals that invite their wisdom and protection.
