Samhain Ideas

🥀 Write letters to your ancestors. Seal them in envelopes with dried flowers or other small offerings, and burn them.

🥀 In lieu of flowers, delicately cut apple slices, orange peels, or other fruits in floral shapes and leave a bowl of them as an offering.

🥀 Read some books/watch some movies that are popular in your family.

🥀 Write little poems or letters to the Fae, roll them up and put them inside cinnamon sticks with a blob of honey or some milk, then leave them in the woods.

🥀 (Gently!) Put googly eyes and tiny paper hats on your plants to make modern Jack o’ lanterns.

🥀 Wear things from people in your life, family jewelry, clothes that a family member has purchased for you, 

🥀 If you can, visit the grave of a loved one or someone in your family. Talk to them for a bit.

🥀 Charge candles with crystals Lapis Lazuli, Rhodonite, Citrine, or hematite to burn at your altar.

🥀 Write a list to your deities of the things you are proud of having accomplished together. Bury it with an offering.

Pronunciation Of The Wiccan Holidays

☽⦁──────── ⦁⧊⦁ ────────⦁☾

The names that are generally used to denote the Wiccan sabbats (as well as festivals of many pagan traditions) come from Gaelic (both Scots and Irish), Welsh, Norse, and Anglo-Saxon. There are variations of pronunciations for each one.

☽⦁──────── ⦁⧊⦁ ────────⦁☾

Samhain (31 Oct)

Irish Gaelic for "summer's end." The standard Irish pronunciation is "sow-in" with the "ow" like in "cow." Other pronunciations that follow with the many Gaelic dialects include "sow-een" "shahvin" "sowin" (with "ow" like in "glow").

The Scots Gaelic spelling is "Samhuin" or "Samhuinn." There is no linguistic foundation for saying this word "samhane" the way it might look if it were English. When in doubt, just say "Hallows" or even "Hallowe'en."

☽⦁──────── ⦁⧊⦁ ────────⦁☾

Yule (21 Dec)

Norse for "wheel." It's pretty much pronounced just like it looks, although if you want to make a stab at a Scandinavian sound, it'll be more like "yool" and less like "yewl." This is the winter solstice.

☽⦁──────── ⦁⧊⦁ ────────⦁☾

Imbolg/Imbolc (1 Feb)

Irish Gaelic for "in the belly." Pronounce this one "IM-bullug" or "IM-bulk" with a guttural "k" on the end. Other names include Candlemas; Brighid (pronounced "breed"), who is the Irish goddess whose festival this is; and Oimelc (pronounced EE-mulk), which means "ewe's milk" in Scots Gaelic.

☽⦁──────── ⦁⧊⦁ ────────⦁☾

Ostara (21 Mar)

Saxon name for a maiden goddess of spring, loosely connected to Astarte and Ishtar. This one's easy -- "o-STAHR-uh." Other names include Eostre (say "OHS-truh" or "EST-truh"). This is the spring equinox.

☽⦁──────── ⦁⧊⦁ ────────⦁☾

Beltane/Bealtaine (30 April)

Irish Gaelic for either "fires of Bel" or "bright fires." If you want to try it in Gaelic, you can say "bee-YAWL-tinnuh" or "BELL-tinnuh." Unlike Samhain, this word can within the linguistic structure of its language of origin be pronounced like it looks -- "BELL-tane" -- without totally abandoning its original construction. Other names are Walpurgisnacht (vawl-PUR-gis-nahkt) and May Day.

☽⦁──────── ⦁⧊⦁ ────────⦁☾

Litha (21 Jun)

Norse or Anglo-Saxon for "longest day." You can say this one just like it looks, or you can try for a Scandinavian sound and say "leetha" with the "th" more like a "t." This is the summer solstice.

☽⦁──────── ⦁⧊⦁ ────────⦁☾

Lughnasadh/Lunasa or Lammas (1 Aug)

The first is Irish Gaelic for "festival of Lugh" (a major Irish deity); the second is Anglo-Saxon for "festival of the loaves" ("hlaf-mass"). Don't panic at that spelling; the second (which is modern Irish as opposed to old Irish) tells you all you need to know.

Say "LOO-nah-sah." (Some people maintain that the Scots dialect says it "LOO-nah-soo.") Lammas is just like it looks, "LAH-mus."

☽⦁──────── ⦁⧊⦁ ────────⦁☾

Mabon (21 Sep)

This is believed to be a form of the Welsh word for "son." Therefore, it would probably be pronounced "MA-bon" with the "a" like in "mass." However, most Wiccans and pagans say "MAY-bon." This is the autumn equinox.

So it’s kind of a scary time. Like the whole ass world is in a tower-card. In times of uncertainty remember you can always fall back on magic. Keep your magic centered and your spirits up. Watch funny movies. Laugh. And most of all, do witchcraft. If you’re stuck at home here are some magical ideas to pass the time. 1 Catch up on your witchcraft reading. 2 Do a good cleansing of your space. 3 Research your next tarot deck. 4 Leave out offerings for your ancestors. (Mine like black coffee and Jack Daniels) 5 Salt your doorsteps. 6 Cleanse your crystals. 7 Take a cleansing bath or shower. 8 Write in your spellbook. 9 Burn incense and candles to clear your head space. 10 Meditate. 11 Bake something and add a little magic to it (Kitchen witch much?) 12 Sweep out negativity. (Or use a floor wash) 13 Make an inventory of all your magical ingredients. (I need to do this!) 14 Support other witch’s online. 15 Watch AHS coven and/or Sabrina. 16 Practice your divination. 17 Practice reading tarot for friends and/or family. 18 Learn a new technique like palm reading, tea leaf reading or the pendulum. 19 Read your birth chart. 20 Find out what human design you are and research that. (I’m a projector BTW) 21 Look up local ghost stories. 22 Collect rain and moon water. (Use them your ritual bath) 23 Start a witchy craft. 24 Make a witchcraft tumblr blog to repost all your favorites. 25 Go for a nature walk (alone)and collect alter items. And most of all stay safe and stay inside. ️<3

WAYS TO SUPPORT/BE AN ALLY

Here is a compilation of places to donate (IF you can, simply reblogging and sharing this can help) and petition to sign. I found these websites and organizations on twitter.

DONATIONS

THE MINNESOTA  FREEDOM FUND: Donate to this to collect funds to pay jail bonds for the protesters who get arrested.

BLACK LIVES MATTER: An organization fighting for the BLM movement. Donate if you can. 

BLACK VISIONS MN: an organization that is led by Black, Queer and Trans people. Donate if you can.

NAACP Legal Defense Fund: Fights for the overall equality fight. Donate if you can.

PETITIONS

Willie Simmons has spent 38 years in prison for a $9 robbery. He had two prior convictions similar to robbery that he served time for. He was prosecuted under the Alabama Habitual Offender law and was given a life sentence for his third strike - stealing 9 (NINE) dollars. Sign his petition. 

Breonna Taylor was killed by police who were conducting an UNANNOUNCED drug raid, where they gave no request to enter. They bashed her door and entered, shooting her EIGHT times. They were in the WRONG HOUSE. 

George Floyd was killed by a police officer who knelt on his neck and suffocated him to death, after George pleaded with the officer and told him he couldn’t breathe. The officer had pulled him from where he sat in his car on an alleged FORGERY. You can also text “FLOYD” to 55156

ARREST THE OFFICERS WHO KILLED GEORGE FLOYD: The main police officer who murdered George is being kept in PROTECTIVE CUSTODY. You probably have heard he was arrested, but this is NOT TRUE. He was placed under PROTECTIVE custody because of the riots and “threats” on his life. 

If you know of ANY other organizations or petitions, PLEASE ADD TO THIS LIST. The fight for justice doesn’t end here, it will never end. Especially when the president of the United States calls white supremacists good people and protesters of a mans death THUGS. USE YOUR VOICE. NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE. FUCK COPS. FUCK “BLUE LIVES”. ALL BLACK LIVES MATTER!

the minnesota freedom fund is asking folks to donate to other organizations instead. the specific ones they listed are black visions, linked above, and these two:

northstar health collective, organized healthcare professionals working with anti-authoritarian groups

reclaim the block, a collective that aims to redistribute funding away from police and towards more community-oriented projects in minneapolis

these are the links i send to my facebook friends who keep running their mouths about “the protests hurting the community”

minnehaha food shelf & calvary church food shelf are both centered in the south minneapolis area where the riots started. the grocery stores in the area have been decimated, so food shelves and food insecurity charities need a lot of love right now.

northside funders group is a philanthropic group in the twin cities that’s using all its funds right now for helping local businesses

migizi is a native american media/history nonprofit whose office was destroyed in the riots

we love lake street is devoting funds specifically towards rebuilding the lake street area in south minneapolis

some more groups that could use your help

the healing justice foundation is a national nonprofit that’s specifically focusing on mental health resources for bipoc right now

ctul is a nonprofit focused on low-wage workers and workers rights in minnesota

mpd 150 is focused on policing and specifically trying to reroute the conversation from “we need to change police procedures” to “the police need structural reform”

the spiral collective is providing funds for supplies, medic kits, and other things that protesters will need on the ground

unicorn riot is a media collective that has had people on the ground filming every night in minneapolis

last but not least some more bail funds

“Black Lives Matter”

You can keep this on you during protests or have it on the front or back of your banners or signs.

In case you are pepper sprayed or tear gassed while protesting : ~Have whole milk (or milk of magnesia which is an antacid is most effective with pepper spray) on you to put in your eyes to help neutralize the sting a bit DISCLAIMER: Sources on google are kinda split on the topic but about a third of the sources I’m seeing say water works about as effectively as milk for pepper spray, but other sources say milk is better. So choose for yourself on that one and what you can afford ~Keep your breathing low and slow. Breath in through your mouth and out through your nose, you DO NOT want that shit in your nose, they taught my mom this during her short time in the Navy when they had to do exercises in a tear gas chamber for as long as they could. (I don’t think this applies so much to pepper spray)

This is not a debate post, don’t start shit on my post or you’ll be blocked on sight. Make your own post about your issue and keep my sigils out of it. And before y’all fuckin say it, don’t fucking “All Lives Matter” at me. All lives can’t matter till black and other POC lives matter.
