Samhain is one of the most important festivals in the Wheel of the Year. It marks the beginning of the dark half of the year. Samhain is traditionally associated with:
• Honouring ancestors and the dead
• The thinning of the veil between worlds
• Letting go, endings, and transition
• Reflection before winter sets in

Samhain is about closure and crossing thresholds. Many people light candles for ancestors, set up a small ancestor altar, or do quiet ritual work focused on remembrance and release. This will be the focus of this year’s community ritual. Please bring:
* Something to represent your ancestor(s) on the community altar - as many items as you need
* Something to write to the ancestor(s) - parchment will be provided
The contribution is $20 per person - under 16s free. Children are welcome if accompanied by an adult caregiver. There will be vegetarian and vegan snacks and non alcoholic drinks provided after the ritual
For bookings phone 0434-112-320. You can pay over the phone with a credit or debit card, or pop into the shop and book in person.
