Holiday Lore

The time between sundown on Samhain to sundown today, the Day of the Dead, was considered a transition time,  or “thin place,” in Celtic lore. It was a time between the worlds where deep insights could pass more easily to those open to them. Through the portals could also pass beings of wisdom, of play, beings took on a feeling of otherness and evil, as our modern relationship between the realms has been muddled, today can be a day to tap into the magick and wonder of other worlds.
