Samhain is more commonly known as Halloween, and falls on October 31. Samhain marks the threshold between the light half and the dark half of the year. The harvest is complete, the land begins to rest, and attention turns inward. This is a liminal moment—one of endings, remembrance, and quiet transition.
Across many seasonal traditions, this time of year has been recognized as a point when boundaries soften. It is associated with honoring ancestors, releasing what has reached completion, and acknowledging the unseen currents that shape our lives. Samhain is not a celebration of loss, but a recognition of cycles—of death giving way to rest, and rest preparing the way for renewal.
Samhain invites stillness and reverence. It asks for honesty about what must be laid down, what wisdom has been gained, and what will be carried forward into the darker months. This is a time for grounding, protection, and conscious closure—creating space for what will eventually return.
Ways to Work with Samhain Energy
- Honor ancestors, loved ones, or personal lineages of wisdom
- Release habits, patterns, or intentions that no longer serve
- Strengthen energetic boundaries and protective practices
- Create space for reflection, remembrance, and rest
Samhain reminds us that endings are not failures—they are sacred thresholds that make new beginnings possible.
