Halloween - Samhain - The celtic new year celebration / Das keltische Neujahrsfest (musicvideo by @schamangerbert)
Samhain ist das wichtigste der 4 Mondfeste im keltischen Jahreskreis. Der Termin wird von Stand des Mondes bestimmt, und nicht von einem festen Datum. Schon aus praktischen Gründen ist Vollmond der bevorzugte Zeitpunkt um im Freien mit einem großen Feuer dieses Fest zu begehen. Für dieses Jahr ist dies Samstag der 4. November 2017. Eines der beliebten Rituale die am Feuer durchgeführt werden ist die Vernichtung von Sorgen und Problemen. Dazu werden diese von jeder Person auf einen Zettel aufgeschrieben und gemeinsam dem Feuer übergeben.
Samhain is the most important of the 4 moon festivals in the Celtic cycle. The appointment is determined by the state of the moon, not by a fixed date. Even for practical reasons, full moon is the preferred time to celebrate this festival outdoors with a big fire. For this year this is Saturday the 4th of November 2017. One of the popular rituals performed by the fire is the annihilation of worries and problems. These are written down by each person on a piece of paper and handed over to the fire together.
Die heutige Form von Halloween als Fest des Grauens mit den furchtbaren Masken ist auf christliche Einflüsse zurückzuführen, ebenso die Verbindung mit dem Totenreich. Dazu gibt es sehr viele Sichtweisen, die wissenschaftlich untersucht wurden und immer wieder neue Erkenntnisse zu Tage fördern. Aus meiner schamanischen Sichtweise heraus ist es ein Fest, das das Ende des Sommers anzeigt, den dunklen Teil des Jahres einleitet und die Zeit der Rückbesinnung auf das vergangene Jahr bedeutet.
The present form of Halloween as a feast of horror with the terrible masks is due to Christian influences, as well as the connection with the realm of the dead. There are many perspectives that have been scientifically studied and are constantly bringing new findings to light. From my shamanic point of view, it is a feast that marks the end of summer, initiates the dark part of the year, and means the time of recollection of the past year.
In dem verlinkten Video hast Du nun die Möglichkeit Dich für ein paar Minuten mit dem vergangenen Jahr zu beschäftigen, mit deinem Krafttier in die Unterwelt zu reisen, in deine Harmonie zu kommen, oder Kraft für die dunkle Zeit des Jahres zu tanken. Bequemes aufrechtes Sitzen mit geschlossenen Augen kann dazu sehr hilfreich sein. Meine Instrumente sind: Rahmentrommel, Shruti-Box und Obertongesang
In the linked video you now have the opportunity to spend a few minutes with the past year, to travel with your power animal into the underworld, to come to your harmony, or to recharge your batteries for the dark time of the year. Comfortable sitting upright with your eyes closed can be very helpful. My instruments are: frame drum, shruti box and overtone singing

so, halloween feastival is not a fixed date, it depends on the full moon, thanks for the information.
Halloween is fixed as it is a copy from the older festival which was not fixed.
That is how brainwashing works: Lets forget the old stuff and make fun about it. And change the basics into something stupid so that people forget the old rituals and get lost in their spiritual roots.
Amazing post beautiful video
@schamangerbert,
I never had experience about "halloween festival"! Coz in my country we never celebrate such kind of thing! So, this is very useful to know about it!
Cheers~
Inspiring and you told me something I didn't know about Halloween, the Christian influence making it the night/day of horror.
I do ask myself when my friends from US said Halloween i wonder what is it he explained like day to remember dead or such.
I agree with your view to mark end of a season perhaps....but I feel it more fun putting on mask or painted your face is really fun although we don't do that here but recently I took part in a Halloween contest it's more fun and am happy about it
Thanks! You find more info about it at wikipedia.
I bet most younger peoples can do this Halloween stuff adult won't feel doing that lol... look fun.
