About this episode

The episode deconstructs Halloween as a mythos and explores its implications in a solarpunk culture.

In this essay, I deconstruct Halloween as an example of a mythos. A mythos includes a narrative with practices, rituals, and festivals that orient people within that narrative. Think about the story you tell yourself about what it means to be a citizen of your nation, and how national anthems, national holidays, and art inspire you to be proud of that national identity. Halloween is a very specific holiday with a very specific history and meaning that create a very specific identity. What might it look like in a solarpunk culture and what kind of identity do we want it to create? If you like this episode, please be sure to 5 star the podcast and follow for more!
