So, I’m really terrible with dates. This is why I decided to make an iCal (for those of you who have an apple product) with the Sabbats (Pagan Holidays), Esbats(Full Moons), and Moon Phases. Forgive me if there is something you don’t agree with in the text, I’ve based it on my spiritual path. And yes, IT’S FREE. Halloween has ancient origins. For the Celts, it was a cross-quarter day called Samhain (“summer’s end”) which fell between the fall equinox and winter solstice. Learn about the quarter days and cross-quarter days and how they’ve influenced our modern calend.

The Autumn Equinox divides the day and night equally, and we all take a moment to pay our respects to the impending dark. We also give thanks to the waning sunlight, as we store our harvest of this year's crops. The Druids call this celebration, Mea'n Fo'mhair, and honor the The Green Man, the God of the Forest, by offering libations to trees. Offerings of ciders, wines, herbs and fertilizer are appropriate at this time. Wiccans celebrate the aging Goddess as she passes from Mother to Crone,and her consort the God as he prepares for death and re-birth.
