More of the season of Samhain and Halloween...here's the day it's celebrated!

 Happy Halloween or Samhain - whichever one you celebrate with however much interest you have!

Tijana Ludovik, "Samain"







These three appear to be superimposed over a store scene! Poor ole witches!




How about "How many cats does it take to fly a broomstick?"


Samuel L. Schmucker, postcard 1911


Yes this is serious stuff, after you take away the candy and costumes...this is a time of connecting to the ancestors. 


Painting by Alea Chapin. No, I've never danced "sky clad" as wiccans do. This is a joyous sharing of earth energy, without any of civilization's trappings. Back to how we were born! I've shared this painting several times on Facebook, and have yet to have my pages taken down. Apparently the AI guys don't recognize these women celebrating together as (nudes). We artists don't use the term "naked."

For our ritual this Sunday, our small group of goddess daughters honored our ancestors and did some singing for the old ways, the almost forgotten chants about nature, goddesses, renewal, abundance, etc. 

On a lighter note...

So glad to have your comments...whatever they may be. I'm one who likes to reply sometime or another, so others will see that; or you might happen back sometime and see what conversation might have started.
