About this episode
Tracey guides listeners through the significance of Samhain and Halloween, exploring seasonal traditions and their origins.
The first in our 8 part, Wheel of the Year podcast series. Join Tracey as she guides you through what this time means and how we still celebrate seasonal traditions today. Samhain (more modernly named Halloween) is a time when the veils between the spirit and human world are at their thinnest. Also known as "Witch's New Years Eye", this is a time for welcoming in the dark days of winter, and the more quiet reflective times ahead. Find out why we dress up, carve pumpkins and why exactly Halloween started as the evening with a spooky reputation.
