FOR long Samhain was the feast of the Turn of the Year. That was on the Eve around October 31 on November 1. Meteorologically speaking the shortest day is yet got to come (December 21), but magically speaking the Veil between the worlds is open and Time and Space, Life and Death, the Material and the Ethereal Spheres become One, but the Wise are already familiar with the fact that these worlds are one as the Hedge Riders travel Between the Realms of this world and the Netherworlds.

Ne, my mother, my grandfather and Aunt Kee always lived in harmony with the Moon and her cycles . I often encounter Wiccans who find it difficult to harmonize with the Moon cycles, because are new to their craft, I was raised this way; our hereditary Craft never seized to live and work with the moon and we were never fond of christianity, because we were hated by the ultra-orthodox, who used to spit on the ground whenever they saw us. My grandfather, mother and aunt Kee used to help anyone in need, the ill and brokenhearted, but whenever we were cursed or mistreated, my grandfather, aunt Kee en me successfully counter- cursed it hexed the ill-doers. That how I became a Pellar.

Now I’ve astrayed from my original subjects, but Samhain is a perfect opportunity for hexing and/or counter-cursing if you know how to, but these are family- and personal secrets I’ll never share
