Samhain Blessings



The witch who owns this hat must have a few fashion spells up her sleeve. To make the chic hat, start with a 3-7/8x8-7/8-inch plastic-foam cone. Cut black silk flowers, leaving a 1-inch stem. Beginning at the top, insert the flowers into the cone. (You could also hot-glue them to the cone.) For the brim, cut an 11-12-inch circle from thin cardboard (a recycled cereal box works great) and paint it black; let dry. Hot-glue the cone to the center of the circle and add purple flowers around the base of the cone.

It's October, and that means this month's newsletters will be focusing on all the different aspects of the Samhain season. Today, we're looking at the many magical features of Samhain - it's a good time for divination and spirit communications. Let's look at how to hold a seance or a dumb supper, the magic of the Needfire, scrying, and more!

Working With the Spirit World 
Many people in the Pagan and Wiccan communities work with spirits and otherworldly beings - particularly at Samhain, when the veil is thin.. Sometime, you may call upon them on purpose -- other times, they might just drop in unannounced! Be sure to read our articles about working with the realm of the spirit world. Learn to identify the different types of guides, how to tell if a spirit doesn't really have your best interests at heart, and how to get rid of spirits that you don't want hanging around.

How to Hold a Seance 
Many Pagans communicate with the spirit world by way of holding seances. Before you have a seance of your own, there are a few things to keep in mind. A séance is an event that can either be fantastic, or a real mess. Which one it is will depend on how much preparation goes into it. With a little bit of planning and thought ahead of time, you can pave the way for your séance to go smoothly. Certainly, it's a good idea to expect the unexpected -- after all, the dead are hardly predictable -- but by setting yourself a few guidelines in advance, you can make sure that everyone has the best experience possible.Read Full Article

The Dumb Supper 
In many Pagan traditions, Samhain is celebrated with a Dumb Supper, or a Feast with the Dead. This is a solemn and sober occasion, and includes place settings for relatives and friends who have crossed over in the past year, as well as a chance to tell them what you never got to say. Read Full Article

Samhain Divination 
In many agricultural societies, a popular pastime at Samhain was that of divining the name of one's future lover. Some revealed a face, others an initial or even a full name. These traditional methods were practiced in rural societies for centuries. You can use them today for your own divination. Read Full Article

Meditation has been proven to extend your life... create more happiness... increase inner peace... lower stress levels... increase mental clarity... resolve long-standing emotional problems, including fear, anxiety, depression, anger, and substance abuse... and it's one of the best things you can do for your brain!

With nothing but bad news everywhere you turn (the economy, politics, health scares), people are smothering under a blanket of stress, and meditation is one of the best ways to raise your threshold for stress.

Unfortunately, many people don't have the time (or the patience) to invest the years of practice required to master the art of meditation. Now, thanks to Bill Harris, you don't have to.

Bill's company, Centerpointe Research Institute, has created a proprietary audio technology calledHolosync® which instantly (and effortlessly) puts you into states of deep meditation—literally at the push of a button.

If you've had trouble meditating, or just want to accelerate (and deepen) your current practice, you can start enjoying the physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits of deep meditation instantly the very first time you use Holosync.

Many Zen monks and at least two Zen masters use Holosync—as do many of the world's top personal growth teachers, including Jack Canfield (co-author of the New York Times Best-selling Chicken Soup for the Soul books) and best-selling relationship authors Gay and Katie Hendricks.

Not only is Holosync recognized as a super-effective "brain tool," it's being used for specific health related problems including ADD, chronic fatigue, traumatic brain injury (TBI), Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, the treatment of addictions, and several others.

Over the last 20 years nearly one million people (in 193 countries!) have used Holosync to accelerate the meditation process and improve their mental, physical, and emotional health.

Our passion is to make available to people like you the very best and most effective ways to...
  • Dramatically improve your mental, emotional, and spiritual health
  • Help you create real happiness in your life, regardless of your past or present circumstances
  • Improve your creativity, intelligence, and mental functioning
  • Significantly improve your overall sense of well-being and inner peace
  • Help you create your own success in the world, along with the personal satisfaction and sense of fulfillment that comes with being successful
Well, Holosync will help you do all this and more—much more.

Try Holosync for yourself. Since it comes with a full 365 day money-back guarantee, you can see how amazing Holosync is—without incurring any risk.

Bill Harris has also agreed to include some special, unannounced additional bonuses exclusively for Hay House customers. To make sure you get these extras, please click here.

When you use Holosync, you'll...
  • Effortlessly reach states of super-deep meditation—even the very first time
  • Accelerate your mental, emotional, and spiritual growth, giving you results you THOUGHT you were supposed to get from meditation (but probably never got)
  • Heal emotional trauma, even if other methods haven't worked
  • Stimulate production of neurochemicals associated with longevity, well-being, and better health
  • Dramatically raise your threshold for stress
  • Increase your self-awareness, inner peace, and happiness
If you've tried meditation but found it difficult... or, just want to go MUCH deeper, with faster results... or, if you just want to grow and improve your life more quickly, you'll love Holosync.

Why not try Holosync TODAY? Click here or call Centerpointe at 1-800-945-2741 or 503-672-7117, ask for Operator HAY111, and start enjoying Holosync now.

Andrea Adler
$9.99
Kindle | Nook | iBooks | Sony

This fascinating roman à clef takes us through one epic year in the life of 21-year-old Sandra Billings. While trying to eke out a living as an actress in L.A., she discovers the I Ching, the ancient Chinese oracle; and uses it as her GPS to navigate a torrid love affair, battle with demons of the past, and search for meaning and truth. Interwoven throughout the deep, rich tapestry of this book are words of wisdom that illuminate Sandra's spiritual quest and profound inner changes. The result is a stunning climax, where everything she has gained is challenged by a poignant and surprising twist of fate.

David Michie
$9.99
Kindle | Nook | iBooks

Starving and pitiful, a mud-smeared kitten is rescued from the slums of New Delhi and transported to a life she could have never imagined. In a beautiful sanctuary overlooking the snow-capped Himalayas, she begins her new life as the Dalai Lama's cat. Warmhearted, irreverent, and wise, this cat of many names opens a window to the inner sanctum of life in Dharamsala. A tiny spy observing the constant flow of private meetings between His Holiness and everyone from Hollywood celebrities to philanthropists to self-help authors, the Dalai Lama's cat provides us with insights on how to find happiness and meaning in a busy, materialistic world. Her story will put a smile on the face of anyone who has been blessed by the kneading paws and bountiful purring of a cat.

'Twas the Night Before Samhain'
✫¸¸.☆¸.✫´☽✪☾ `°☆.¸¸.✫✫

Twas' the night of Samhain and all thought the house,
Every creature was stirring, yes even that mouse;
The jack o'lanterns were hung about with great care,
In hopes the fall fairies soon would be there;
The children were dressed in their spookiest wear,
For in search of sweet treats on Samhain tis fair;
It's All Hallow's night, so I leaped from my bed,
With thoughts of enchantment running through my head;
When across the moons face a wonder I'd spy,
A Witch on her broom stick up in the sky;
The moon shining on the autumn leaves as they fall,
Gives a feelings of spirits leering within the trees so tall;
When what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But Witches and Wizards coming ever more near;
So I grab my boots and my black cloak quick,
I know in a moment this house they will pick;
More rapid than bats around a grave they came,
They whistled, and shouted, and called me by name;
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
To the house they did come for a Samhain ball!
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
We danced and played underneath the dark sky;
Let us gather as friends, carve the pumpkin set near,
This old Haunted House shall give nobody fear;
I was dressed all black, from my head to my foot,
No tarnish on these clothes no ashes or soot;
Our eyes how they twinkled! Our hearts filled with delight!
As we called forth spirits on this Samhain night!
When we had finished our magickal spell,
Around the cauldron some stories of monsters we’d tell;
But soon as with time, it will rush quickly by,
Our party was ending and home the witches did fly.
But I heard them exclaim, ere they flew out of sight,
"Samhain blessing to all and to all a good night."















House Cleansing Ritual

To cleanse your entire house of negative energy

1. Take a large bowl of salt, and sprinkle a pinch or two over all external doorways and windows.

2. Choose the room that has the most negative feeling. You may cast a circle for this part, but it's not really necessary. In that room, light a white candle, and in a large fireproof bowl combine 1 tablespoon each of powdered garlic, dried peppermint, ground clove, dried/powdered thistle, a handful of dried sweetgrass, and a handful of sage or oak leaves.

3. Carefully light the mixture, so that it smolders and gives off an aromatic smoke.

4. Leaving the white candle lit and in that room, carry the bowl into each room, and repeat the following:

In the name of the Eternal Lady and Lord I bid thee part.
I consecrate and clear this space.
Let nothing but joy linger here.

5. When you have done each room, return to where you began, leaving the mixture to smolder until it goes out. Once it does, you may extinguish the candle and take the ash from the mixture outside and sprinkle it on the ground, returning it to the Mother.

‎~ The Two Must Become One

Everything in our reality, what we experience within and without, is made up of the waves vibrations of positive and negative energies, or yin and yang or solar and lunar or ida and pingala, or right and left, or electricity and magnetism, or chi and chi ching, the Mother and Father, Prince and Princess, etc whatever names we want to give to them is irrelevant, they are the universal law and the underlying master keys contained within all esoteric wisdom.

The process or Path to influence, unify and utilize these energies goes by many different names, Yoga, Alchemy, Kabbalah, Hermetica, Magick, Taoism, Buddhism, etc but they are really speaking about the same process of inner-standing.

Unifying these energies within is the key process by which we achieve higher degrees of illumination and infinite growth and expansion of consciousness; there is no other spiritual method beyond this process regardless of how each group chooses to clothe their teaching. Some use the terms 'gods', others use chemical terms and yet others use legends and tales or astrological concepts. In the end however, we find that we're all universally built in common parts and we come from One Source of dynamic every-lasting energy that is called the One, Unique and Unified. Therefore, the only differences between each human is the conscious level by which they have achieved understanding of this universal principal and the degree to which they have learned to utilize it; there are no other differences between our minds, hearts or bodies - we are truly under the influence of the One Source of Light.

The Path of Illumination can easily be related to the Hermetic axiom "know thyself" because once we understand who and what we are and the infinite energy by which we already possess we can become gods and begin to influence the reality around us, rather then be influenced by it.

Once this principal of inner-energy is thoroughly understood, the Path is simply a constant growing of deeper awareness of the utilization of this infinite energy which can be applied to a wide variety of functions; Healing, vitality, universal connection, spiritual insights, astral projection, influence, (siddhis) etc.

The Caduceus has been used as a major key within all ancient wisdom in various ways, the great staff of Hermes, that rod of Tehuti, the great Tree of Life in Kabbalah, the nadi system in Yoga, the furnace in Alchemy, etc. For example; Imagine for a moment the two great energies driving up the spine to the brain bringing an 'arc' of illumination to the mind and whole body as we see in Western Medicine and Alchemy... now picture looking down on that process of intertwining energy and you would recognize another well known symbol from across the world.

All is one process, one soul, one God ♥

Raz Iyahu
‎~ The Apple and the Great Fall

In the spiritual place called the Garden of Eden, Eve (Chavah) was said to be tempted by a serpent which beguiled her into eating from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

This serpent represents what is well known by the ancients as the inner cosmic serpent, the great dragon or the two forces of opposing energy called Ida and Pingala or Right and Left or known as Aza and Azael in the Zohar.

Before the 'Fall' this energy circuit was circulating perfectly within Adam and Eve. It moved throughout their bodies in total harmony keeping them both totally aware and conscious of the higher spiritual realities surrounding them.

However, once this 'apple' was eaten from the Tree (meaning the breaking of the great circuit of infinite energy called the breaking of the vessels in Kabbalah) Adam and Eve 'Fell' from this spiritual place into a more dense 3D environment called Earth. Here they lost the memory of who they really are and the sight they used to reveal the spiritual worlds, the direct relationship with the All was now totally concealed.

We see this story is trying to show us that the disconnection of this vital energy circuit was the result of misusing vital energy within. Once this circuit was broken (spilled) the man and woman lost their unity with the system and fell into (spiritual) death, decay and suffering here in this temporal world.

Now it is up to each soul to repair this broken circuit and harness this energy in a more productive way correcting the breaking and healing this lack of sight. This is the only way for a soul to break free from the endless incarnations here and restore the lost (Da'at) Knowledge that is currently lacking in this lower reality. Our work involves a re-connection of energy, a unifying of inner polarity and no matter how obscure, arcane and clothed the mysteries are written they all speak of this one process and nothing more ♥
