Happy Samhain my friends, today I'm gonna tell you the origins of Halloween.🎃
Before you start to reading please drop your like if your like my 3D art for this Halloween.
Let's get started.
The party that we celebrate of Halloween or All Hallows Eve, is nothing that the most important in the Celtic mythology, the party of Samhain.
Today I'm gonna tell you from where comes this party but we need to return to the iron age.
In the Celtic culture the year wasn't separate in stations, rather in two halves, light and darkness, Samhain mark the beginning of the darkness time, that's because is when the last harvest is done. This is the new Celtic year, and yeah it's confusing but the Celts used a different calendar that works with the solstices and equinoxes. And this party endure for three nights, the first three full moons of the month, mostly know as Samonios.
The last night of Samhain is called the night of the spirits, that night is supposed to be the void or the pass between the dark and the light. This creates a bridge that connects the living world with the death one. That allows us to get together with ours loved ones who have died, but that also create a bridge for the bad spirits.👻
So, this is the origin of Halloween, I hope that you liked the 3D art that I made and if the information was entertaining too. All was recollected from the video of @solitudeofalanna , watch it if you want to learn more about Halloween.👍
