my occasional musings on life, love, art, perfume ... what else is there?

For Wiccans, Samhain is a time for letting go of the old and looking ahead to the new, a time when the veil is most sheer between living and dead; Samhain is the end of the harvest season, a time when Pagans pay their respects to departed loved ones, ancestors, and guides in the spirit world.

"The Goddess manifests as the Crone and the God as the Horned Hunter and Lord of Death. Sacred colors are Black and Orange. A festival of endings and transformation."

Today's fragrance: Celtic Woods by Dragonfly Blue. Perfect combination of sweet and spicy *whisper* reminiscent of Youth Dew. Heh.

Yup! My best friend is wiccan. But since there are all sorts of wiccans, she isn't into holidays but other things instead.
