Magical, Mystical Halloween

If You wonder about the origins of Halloween, you can determine that there are many different stories and origins, as the holiday started. Some say it is a day of Satan, or the worship of evil spirits and the practice of witchcraft, which they believe is Druid religion. There are other, think it was a day for the spirits of the dead to come back and look at the results to humans had done, they wrong.

A few stories were told about the ghosts of the past away the years before this night and they came back in search of living bodies to possess, in the hope of a life after death. I've heard that I myself was a Halloween European custom called All Souls Day, where early Christians would travel to villages to collect and cake for each cake, which they collected, they would say a prayer for the patrons lost loved ones. They believed this would help, ask the souls in heaven.

There is the magic of the Jack-O-Lantern, where the flame, in the knowledge of the fear away evil they fear that to do so. The ghosts, goblins and witches that most people associate with bad were actually intended to frighten than those the

Evil spirits away. They were of the view that with the people on the eve of the new year, while people also wore masks and celebrated. When I took from a magical and mystical Halloween, I think, some ghosts and goblins, but I also think of fairies and pixies in a glen dancing, singing and glowing in the moonlight! Spreitendes their wings in the fresh night air, afraid of nothing! Roaming in their country to play small tricks on them all. I am thinking of the elves play their music with flutes and drums in the middle of a current glen.

The Halloween, that we now celebrate, is a mixture of old traditions combine together over the years. The majority of people in the here and now not associate the old beliefs with Halloween. We still think ghosts and goblins and witches, but generally we do not associate with Satan Halloween. We are concerned about what kind of costumes are our children to choose, and if we have to make them.

We buy or federal government, where exactly what they want or what we need to make the costumes they have in common their extreme views best. In general, a large number of children do not really like to dress up in scary costumes. There are so many characters and caricatures Storybook fictional characters or characters of films that children do not even want to think about the part it.

Today scary in today's time, if you think or say, Halloween and the first thing appears, Most of that, in adults and children's heads, Saigkeiten, and then I would say, pumpkins. Children think, play and fun at parties in a cool costume, that, once a year. After pondering the old traditions of Halloween, I do not see much magic, mystical, or the evil in this special holiday. I see it as an opportunity for children to so something for a whole day that they dream run all year, or when they grow up. You get to take home a large bag with Saigkeiten and carve faces in pumpkins. We as adults really do not explain the original meaning of Halloween to them because we do not celebrate it in the same way as the old people, because of our beliefs changing.
