Samhain 2012

Samhain is one of the most important celebrations of the pagan community, and this year is celebrated on the eve of October 31st, 2012. This page is a highlight of Samhain Sabbat events in 2012, as well as photos and videos of you guys celebrating. We welcome photos, stories, videos or anything else you might have to share with us that can give us a glimpse of what you did on Samhain 2012 (we’d also love to see your altar setup)!

You might want to have a look at our Samhain social group and join in the fun to discuss, upload pictures and show off your videos. We expect some nifty stuff from you guys on this year’s Samhain.

Things to do on Samhain 2012

As the veil becomes thin enough to blur both worlds, there are things that you could do during Samhain, here are some ideas. Don’t forget that Samhain is a perfect time for a ritual to communicate with the dead – have a look at this ritual, and if you happen to be a member in a coven, take a look at this ritual. Samhain 2012 is a magical period where divination is at its strongest point, so if you happen to perform tarot card spreads – here’s one for you to try out.

And we can’t forget the foods! Pumpkin is one of Samhain’s prominent symbols, and there’s a lot of tasty stuff that you can cook with it. Why not try pumpkin muffins or maybe bake pumpkin bread.
