Tis all Hallow's tonight in the colonies even though it really is Beltaine if we respect the turning of the wheel in the southern hemisphere. So part of the community celebrates death while the other part celebrate life! A little confusing and quite irritating for some.
Of course Halloween is very different to ALL HALLOWS EVE... and it has just become over commercialised and a gawdy shadow of what is meant to be which is a very respectful time of the year when we are supposed to focus on our dead and those that have walked this path before us.
I am being totally fair with this - so I wish all of those celebrating Halloween a great night of trick or treating. I also wish those that choose to follow the movement of the sourthern stars a very happy Beltaine as we move into a time of new life and abundance.
All prayer is good and all focus on the positive is good - so let us all respect that and if it is the ONLY time when the commoners actually focus on the fact that they are all going to DIE one day, and if that thought makes them better people during their lives then so be it.
