Re: When Should we be Celebrating Samhain? RavenDancer Mon Nov 1 12:14:02 1999 *br*I personally think this very appropriate and liken this "tradition" of yours to how most pagan groups I know of work the high holiday's or Sabbats. Today, we celebrate with ritual when everyone can get together, while privately we celebrate with ritual when we feel it appropriate. This year the personal (with Grove celebration too) Samhain celebration has lasted four days, and I just might go one more <G> as there is still a need.*p*Many Blessings to you!*br**B*B*br*Raven *p*: whilst *br*: people like myself follow the seasons as they occur here but *br*: in our rituals we take the time to pay homage to our *br*: ancestral traditions and to the corresponding northern *br*: festival. Some may argue that this is a bit like placing a *br*: bet on both sides of a football game, but at it's core is a *br*: respect for both our anceint roots and the seasons by which *br*: we live here in Australia.*br*: *br* Re: When Should we be Celebrating Samhain?
