Today we are celebrating Samhain together - otherwise known as the Halloween for witches.
I would like to share some witchy things to do for Halloween with you as ways to celebrate Samhain. In this witch vlog, you will find inspiration for traditional Samhain rituals, Halloween witchcraft, and deadly delicious kitchen witchery, ancestor rituals, folk witchcraft, and lots of history and traditions.
During a misty morning walk, I show you some influences the ancestors of my land (Celts and Germanic tribes) have left us as a heritage. Then we are doing some fun witch crafts - a traditional remembrance candle for the dead that can be used in your Samhain ancestor ritual. Of course, we also have to make use of the beautiful autumn weather by jumping through high heaps of colorful fallen leaves and picking up some pumpkins to carve. A dumb supper is a great way to honor or remember your ancestors, and I am showing you how to evoke them in your heart and head - plus this of course also includes the creation of the best, moist, and super chocolaty nut cake. Yum!!!
I wish you a happy Halloween and all my witches a beautiful Samhain celebration :)

Also, my wonderful friend E. was staying with me and sneakily got a lot of behind the scenes footage of this vlog (I dread to see my messy kitchen and awkward forest squatting already xD):
