Samhain II Classic Bag
With its pumpkin orange, mossy green, burgundy, and yellow -- all the colors you see in a glorious display of autumn leaves -- this tarot bag is a celebration of fall. Samhain (pronounced "SOW-in, where the sow rhymes with cow) is an ancient Celtic harvest festival and the precursor to modern Halloween.
Falling on October 31 / November 1, halfway between the fall equinox and winter solstice, Samhain is a "between time." It marks the day when the veil that divides thisworld from the otherworld is at its thinnest.
On Samhain, spirits are free to roam the earth, fairies play tricks on mortals, and rituals to honor the dead are common. It's no coincidence that El Dia de los Muertos, All Saint's Day, and Halloween occur at the same time, as they have the same roots. They are all celebrations of those who have passed, a time to honor our ancestors and departed loved ones.
