- **Event Description**: A cacao circle to celebrate Samhain and remember our ancestorsAbout this EventAt Samhain the veil is thin and we gather to reflect and celebrate the energies of this time, listen to curated seasonal music, drink cacao, journey, and feel supported by the circle space.The 31st October is the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, meaning end of summer and the return to darkness. It is the New Year’s Eve of the Celtic wheel of the year. At this time our ancestors had gathered in the last harvest, selected the animals they would hope to keep alive over winter, prepared meat and stored crops to keep them alive. They lit large bonfires to celebrate this time when the velvet curtain between the two worlds is thinnest. They would wear costumes to protect themselves and their children from any bad spirits that may come through the veil. They would lay a place at their table for those dearly departed ancestors that had gone before them and prepare a feast to enjoy with them. They carved turnip lanterns to protect them too. By 500 AD the Romans and Christianity had claimed Samhain and wanted it to be the time to celebrate the passing of the Saints and martyrs on 1 November. They called it Alholowmesse, so 31 October became known as Alholowmesse Eve, then All Hallows Evening and finally Halloween.What does darkness mean to you? How will you prepare for winter?
