SOME THINGS YOU CAN DO
- Dry herbs. Collect them from your garden or buy some from the supermarket. Make your own incense blends from them.
- Visit a cemetery, even if you don't know anyone buried there. Dust off some graves, bring some flowers to lay on them, read the headstones, take photos or do a grave rubbing.
- Watch a scary movie. Maybe not on Samhain night, but some time during the season watch a movie that really gives you the creeps with the lights out, so that-- even if only momentarily-- you can feel some of what our ancestors felt.
- Donate food to a pantry. This was a time for sharing the harvest; this would be our modern day equivalent.
- Pay attention to your dreams. If someone is trying to contact you, or if there is something you need to know, most likely it will first start to come through your subconscious. Tell yourself each night that you are going to remember your dreams, and write them down when you wake u
