Collection: Halloween / Samhain

You know it as Halloween but to us Witches, it is Samhain Eve. Samhain, literally translating to 'End of Summer', is one of the biggest festivals in the Wiccan calendar, a time of remembrance of those we've lost and a celebration of summer's death and winter's birth.

Samhain marked the Celtic New Year, the end of summer, and the end of the harvest season. It also signaled the beginning of winter, which they associated with death. On this day, the Celts believed the veil between the living and the dead was especially thin. This allowed spirits of the dead to visit the living.
