Samhain

This week we are diving into the Witch’s Sabbat, Samhain. This year Samhain is on Friday, November 1st in the Northern Hemisphere and will be on Sunday, May 4th, 2025. Samhain is known as the Witches’ New Year and is considered the first sabbat starting us off on the Wheel of the Year. We will be diving into some history, traditions, and ideas in which you could introduce celebrating Samhain in your practice.
