If you're stuck for something to do to mark this special time of the year then this is a simple way to get involved. I think there's many who'd like to do something to mark Samhain but have never tried anything like this. It's simple, it's basic but it'll help you solidify your place here 🙂
Candle magick.
Start simple, using candle burning as part of your spiritual practice.
Whatever colour suits you, whatever you have to hand. Many people get hung up on specific colours and associations. Remember, in the old times the various shades would have been a luxury and the bland colour of tallow would have been the norm.
The elemental nature of fire.
The element of fire has been used by humans for thousands of years. A centre point for gathering and storytelling. Under control, it can mean safety and warmth, provide comfort. The flame when used in candle magick can also become a focus for intent. It has been used in witchcraft for many, many generations, and by connecting with the flame we can try and cause change for good. Words and thoughts cause intent. It's said that the moment you start thinking or visualising a ritual or spell, it begins.
Give it a go.
