| 6. | Description | Abstract | All Hallows Eve, which became Halloween, is the evening before All Saints Day in Roman Catholicism. The following day is for the remembrance of the dead. For Pagans it is a time when the “veil” is thin between the living and the dead and marks the end of summer. Easter, too, is a blend of Christian and “pagan” traditions when “light” and “dark” are in balance at the Equinox. |
