Did you know that long, long time ago, all of November was celebrated during Samhain? 

Did you know that some may consider Samhain the 'Witches' New Year?

All saints day. All Souls Day.

Hallowed Eve.
Samhain.
Day of the Dead.
Shamanic journeys.
They all have the burning of incense, candles and smoke as part of their connection to our ancestors and what lies beyond what we see. They are all rituals and celebrations dedicated to a place and time beyond mind and body.
Which day do you celebrate?

Thin Places - A Pilgrimage Home

One of the best books I have read about the cultural stories of thin places, thin veils between our world and the spirits beyond was written by Ann Armbrecht. 
She wrote about her journey through Nepal, for her graduate school thesis. 
Her discoveries, along with her hardships, in the villages of the mystic (my adjective) mountains felt real and timeless. I felt drawn in and wanted to see the experiences she was having. I imagined she could touch the spirits beyond, as she learned about each of the regions beliefs, prayers, practices and pilgrimages.
I highly recommend you add this to your Fall Harvest reading list.
