Halloween In ancient Celtic beliefs, the new year began on November 1st, or Samhain. Just as the shorter daylight symbolizes the beginning of a new year, the sunset also symbolizes the beginning of a new day. So the annual harvest festival begins on the evening of October 31. The Druids of the British Isles would light crops as offerings, and when they danced around the fire, the solar season ended and the festival of Samhain began.
The Celts believed that Samhain, the god of death, would return to earth with the ghost on the night of October 31 in search of a stand-in. So they lit torches and burned animals as a gift to the god of death. He also dressed himself in costumes made of animal heads or fur, and made strange noises so that the god of death could not recognize him and avoid disaster.
That's where today's Halloween Masquerade comes from. That night, the ghost returned to the underworld and everything was calm again.
On the morning of November 1, the druids distributed the embers that were still burning in the fire to each house and used it to light a new kitchen fire. These flames are used to keep the home warm and to ward off evil spirits. Because this is considered to be the time of the year when the invisible door connecting the yin and yang worlds opens, and the two worlds may communicate with each other.
Bonfires are an important part of the festival. The villagers threw the bones of the slaughtered cattle on the fire; The word "bonfire" is said to be derived from the "bone fire". After the bonfire was lit, the villagers extinguished the rest of the lights.
Each family then solemnly lit their own fireplace with the same tinder as a sign of the village's closeness. To this day, hundreds of bonfires are lit on Halloween in Ireland.
Neo-pagans still perform the midnight worship of samhain on Halloween, as well as other traditional festivals.
