MA-170 A Mystic's Halloween

From: KVNF
Series: Mystics Almanac
Length: 05:12

Like the ancient Celts, Halloween is a time for me to experiment with new forms and ways of being. Read the full description.

Judith_medium_small My boys are eager to buy Halloween costumes and take on pre-made roles. Among the ancient Celts, and some Native American nations, Halloween was a time to shed what was no longer needed and experiment with new forms. As our world careens toward major transformation, I can use this holiday to shape-shift into new forms: the crone who mediates at the crossroads, the evolutionary artist painting with light, the energy healing making others whole with my head, heart, and hands. Please fill my trick-or-treat bag with the holiest of treats: relics of saints, gems and pearls, dreams and inspired visions. I can't wait to count my booty!
