Samhain is the third of the harvest festivals, only this isn't a harvest of crops or grain, it is the harvest of flesh. It was the time of year when farmers and families would slaughter cattle and preserve the meat to last through the cold winter months.

Samhain is a festival of death as it is the death of the year and of the waxing Sun. It is also the death of the earth when plants, seeds and acorns are now slowly descending underground to ready themselves to be reborn in Spring. Animals will start to hibernate and the earth will appear barren as it sleeps through the winter months.

Earth energies are being pull inwards at this time, this is the time we should also be looking inwards at ourselves. Contemplate the year we have had and what lessons we have learned, whether they were good or bad, what can we take from them and use in the future.

At Samhain spirits can commune with the living and visit us. We remember our ancestors and the people and pets who have died. We honour them by placing pictures of them on our altars and invite them to join us. We should also adorn our altars with seasonal fare such as fallen leaves, twigs, acorns, nuts, turnips and pumpkins.

On Samhain we should light a fire as this is primarily a Celtic fire festival where the villagers and towns folk would light giant bonfires to say goodbye to the God of the waxing Sun and to thank the Goddess for her harvest of gifts bestowed upon the earth. There would also be big feasts with stews, corn and breads and we would give thanks for people in our lives and show gratitude for all that we have and we give thanks to the people who are no longer with us and invite them to join us at the feast.

Light a candle tonight and put it at a window west facing to light the way for our lost loved ones and invite their spirits to visit us. If you don't have a west facing window, put the candle on the western most part of your home.

Have a Blessed Samhain may the Goddess watch over you.

Today is Samhain. It is one of the most important of the 8 Sabbats as it is the Pagan New Year. The wheel of the year has turned full circle and a new year begins. The word Samhain means 'Suns end'. It is pronounced Sawin. 🕯

In Late, Obscure Notice, DHS Turbocharges Trump’s Voter Purge Database, Evading Privacy Protections Read more here.

🚨BREAKING: The Department of Homeland Security quietly formalized sweeping changes to a federal immigration database, turning it into a national “voter verification” tool that appears to sidestep federal privacy protections and will make it easier to remove large numbers of voters from the rolls.

Something I love about Thriller is that Michael Jackson really threw everything in there, werecats, zombies, beasts, a thing with forty eyes, night creatures, aliens, demons, hounds of hell, ghouls, the funk of forty thousand years, it truly has it all

Last night I watched about 100 middle school musicians rip an orchestra cover of Thriller, complete with zombie dancers in the aisles.

Whatever eventually remains of this civilization, I hope it’s half as good as that.

Swifties, we’re fundraising for @feedingamerica.org to help support food banks nationwide. Tomorrow, SNAP benefits will halt and the 42 million Americans who rely on them will need help.

Reminder that for every 1 meal local food banks provide, SNAP provides 9 meals. Your local food pantry is faced with a situation in which they need to massively scale up their operations to meet the need.

They need you to donate money, time, and goods.

How the USDA’s New Beef Industry Plan Puts Wolves at Risk Last week, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) introduced their Beef Industry Plan aimed at “fortifying” a subset of American business owners who already receive significant subsidies and handouts...

The USDA’s new Beef Industry Plan prioritizes expanding public lands grazing and loosening protections for predators, despite wolves posing almost no threat to livestock.

Wolves have killed 0.002% of cattle, yet hundreds of wolves were killed by government programs.
