Greetings once again Very Wise Elf as you have placed giggle in my voice and a warm fuzzy feeling in my heart. Thank you. Although this maybe a little late, I wish all had a blessed Samhain and your new year is full of hope and dreams. I didn't listen to Samhain Night, but I almost missed listening to All Souls Night, PHEW! I was visited by my writing guide and shared a few minutes together on the other side. It was hard coming back. Love flows more easily over there... My Love to All, Gina

Sorry, I forgot that I was an Elf and that I see better than humain ... Is it better?
I wish you a good end's year "check up". May you manage to do the mourning of the bad emotions and events you want to let behind and begin a rich new year which brings you what you asked and teach you many things. May rituals (for those who will do something) go well and may those who will try to, manage to reach their ancestors. May our prayers for the rest of the deaths be heard and we manage to honor them well.

Well, it was not really Samain night last night because I was told that it's the night of the black moon (new moon), and so this year it's the 9th. That this night that I will participate to the ritual of my druids friends who allow me to join them exceptionally (they usually open the Beltain celebration only, all the others 7 fairs are "closed").
But, I think it's important to "pray" or "meditate" all together and, as many christians or non-believer will do it these 2 days by tradition or by religion, I wanted to join them in a kind of immense communion in honor of the deaths. It's particuliarly important for me this year because in november it will be the 10th anniversary of the death of my grand-father and of someone who was very important in my life. They died at one week of difference not enough old to let us think that they were about to die.
So, as I arrived in a total darkness in a forest I don't know yet, yesterday evening, I'm about to go back there in some minutes, hoping I find a nice and quite place close to the 3 oaks I was told, between a menhir, a fountain and the tomb of an aviator who crashed in the forest.
Warm thoughts and, may what we are doing for the deaths help us to not forget how it's important to take care every day to the living ones we cherish...

Bon Samain à toi aussi Betty! Je te souhaite d'arriver à faire un bon bilan de fin d'année (ce n'est pas toujours facile de se retourner et de faire la part des choses). Que tu réussisse à faire le deuil des mauvaises émotions et des mauvais événements que tu veux laisser derrière toi et que tu commences une riche nouvelle année. Qu'elle t'apporte ce que tu veux et que tu apprennes plein de choses. Que ta cérémonie se passe bien et puissions nous entrer en contact avec nos ancêtres. Que nos prières pour le repos des morts soient entendues et que nous réussissions à les honorer convenablement.
