#Downtime #Witchdiary #Samhuinn A diary recording night bantar in my injury downtime along with pojects & some cards. Recorded in the tide of Winters Samhuinn, Southern Hemisphere May Coming links to posts/page here; https://theenchantedduat.weebly.com/ http://themovewell.weebly.com/ Winters Samhuinn (Ethnic Europeans New Year starting with Winter with the last harvest of the year) (n) Oct 31st + (s) May 1st + Also called Winternacht, Yh Tauin (the latter being Manx) ld Irish Samain or Samuin, samani ("assembly"). Samain or Samuin was the name of the festival (feis) marking the beginning of winter in Gaelic Ireland. On Gaulish Coligny calendar, dating from the 1st century BC, the month name SAMONI is likely related to the word Samain and includes the word for "summer". A festival of some kind may have been held during the "three nights of Samoni" (Gaulish TRINOX SAMONI). The month name GIAMONI, six months later, likely includes the word for "winter". Samhuinn is celebrated on the eve, as one of the quarter days, with the first day of Winter marking not only the new year but also the start of the darker half of the year. Marked by great gatherings and feasts, and was when the ancient burial mounds were open, which were seen as portals to the Otherworld. Like Beltaine, Samhuinn is a liminal or threshold festival, when the boundary between this world and the Otherworld thinned, meaning the Aos Si (the 'spirits' or 'fairies' or the 'sidhe' who are ethnically white) can more easily come into this middle earth or mid realm, the Aos Si as remnants of the ethnic European or white Gotts. At Samhuinn, the ancestral spirits are appeased with offerings of food and drink, to ensure the people and their animals also survived the winter. The veils are thinnest in this seaon and the souls of dead kin also revisit their homes/people seeking hospitality, and a place is set at the table for them during a Samhuinn meal, referred to as a dumb or silent supper. In the 9th century, the invading Church that had brought in All Saints in attempt to take ethnic Europeans away from their ethnic culture of acknoledging the beginning of Winter and what it means to us.In the 9th century, the invading cult/church shifted the date of All Saints' Day to 1 November, while 2 November later became All Souls' Day. Over time, it eventually replaced Winternatch/Samhuinn and was marketed as modern Halloween for all, despite all the customs within being white or European ethnic centric. This is personally why I do not acknowledge Halloween because it is an appropriated and distorted version of my racial customs that surround and are Samhuinn.

#BallaratRuneGarden #Firepit #Lughnasadh A Permadiary library recording for landscaping & botanical resources. In the Rune garden, sharing an update of the Black Sun Firepit. Recorded in the tide of Autumns Lughnasadh, Southern Hemisphere 2022 Links to posts/page here; https://druathabotanica.weebly.com/ Autumns Lughnasadh (Ethnic European time of bread/grain, First harvest of the year) (n) aug 1+ (s) feb 1+ Also called Freyfaxi, Hleifblot. Lughnasadh is a Historically Gael Ethnic custom, along with many other parts of ethnic European practices by different names celebrating the first of three harvest periods within the year and a day. Lughnasadh is named after the gott Lugh. It inspired great gatherings that included religious ceremonies, ritual athletic contests (most notably the Tailteann Games), feasting, matchmaking, and trading. Traditionally there were also visits to holy wells. Lughnasadh is seen as a time to give thanks to the spirits for the beginning of the harvest season with offerings and exchange. The gott Lugh is honoured by many at this time, and gentle rain on the day of the festival is seen as his presence and his bestowing of blessings. Many Celtic Reconstructionists also honour the gottess Tailtiu at Lughnasadh, and may seek to keep the Cailleachan from damaging the crops, much in the way appeals are made to Lugh. Lugh was a fire and light gott of Ireland, and a leader of the Tuatha De Dannan. Lugh is the patron of scholars, craftsmen, warriors and druids. Lugh is also known as Lugh Samildanach (the Many Skilled) and Lugh Lamhfada (Lugh with the Long Arm).
