Hello!
A very warm welcome to my channel!
This week I am starting to get my home ready to celebrate Samhain and I’m also adding a few pieces of Halloween spook! Come with me as I take my Mabon altar down and re-dress it for this beautiful and sacred sabbat. Here in the northern hemisphere, we are celebrating the third harvest, marking the end of summer and the end of the Witch’s year as we are honour our ancestors and those who went before us.
Thank you so much for being here.

Ooh, love the hair 🤩 OMG George!!! He clearly wanted the spooky decor out as much as you did 😂 Thanks for sharing - especially about your dad. That's a lovely photo of him and your mum How have your siblings reacted to you being a witch? Happy Sppoky Season 🍂🍁🍄

Thank you so much! I only really have a relationship with two of my siblings. They are all a lot older than me and our paths don't really cross. I don't think they give a toot to be honest! 🤣 xx

When you started by saying you understand that not everyone wants to or can honour ancestors, I think my heart stopped beating. I was orphaned in infancy, and what I DO know about my dead relatives doesn't make me want to think about them 😂 I think it's the first time I've ever heard anyone bring this subject up, and I'm grateful for it. In regards to my own practice, I used to 'mourn' the family I deserved, but now I treat it like a new year's party 🎉

I absolutely love how George was playing around. So cute! The addition of the rosemary and fresh leaves was a great idea. I will be borrowing that! I currently don't honor ancestors or the dead, mostly because I don't have any that I had a relationship with. However, I love how you spoke of 'all who came before', I think I'll check into that. You are right, ancestors are more than just the ones we've known.

Hello Alison I loved seeing how you put everything together for your altars, it all looks so lovely and cosy. George definitely wanted to be on camera didn't he, he was so funny and reminded me of my own cat Molly who also likes to kick at the rug!! Thank you for sharing all your thoughts and ideas, it means so much and is always so helpful 🍄

What a beautiful altar Alison thanks for sharing such a personal sacred space I can't wait to do mine, I have exactly the same ancestor tree😊 I bring out photos of family and pets I've lost, I also bake a traditional Irish barmbreac at samhain now in memory of my dad as he loved it so that is lovely for cakes and ale. George was so excited 🐾🐾 bless him Samhain zoomies🦇🦇 and your hair looked gorgeous🎃🍂🍁

I LOVE your hair and your altar. I think it's perfect! I noticed you and I have the same athame... lol! I currently have 5 altars in my spare room. I do have an ancestor altar, but it' also my healing altar. My recently departed brother's picture is on there. And I have a family altar, for those who are still alive, that I pray for every day. I really enjoyed this video. I always enjoy all your videos. Thank you so much for sharing ❤ 🎃🍁

Hi Alison. You decorated your home so beautifully for Samhain. I too feel some mixed feelings about putting a pic of my dad on my Samhain altar. We had a very difficult painful relationship. Since i started practising (only 3 years ago) i'm thinking that this year i'm ready to put his pic on it. Well i'll see how i feel about it when the altar is done because it's still in Mabon sabbath atm. Your little Georges is so cute. Blessed be. 🙏

Love your hair! Samhain here tends to be low key; in previous years I've made pumpkin soup, bread, and we used to go down to the Dark Gathering at Boscastle which was brilliant. My altar doesn't change much other than I'll put tarot cards on, either from a spread or ones I've chosen. I hope you find peace with the parent stuff....I had an estranged relationship with my dad and only got back with him literally on his death bed; my parents were/are what they are, flawed human beings, and I came to the same conclusion - it is what it is. Onwards. And BB xxx

Hi Alison, we have a family gathering on Samhain with lots of food including pumpkin soup and home made bread. We then have a little fire in the back garden (fire pit). I adopted a little French Bulldog, so it's going to be very different this time. My alter, for the time being, is my bookshelf. This is only until I get my new sideboard and drawers, but needs must lol, especially a curious pooch in the house. Wishing you a very blessed Samhain . Blessed be xx
@fifty-somethingwitch2406
@fifty-somethingwitch2406 14 часов назад
Well this all sounds wonderful to me! And the firepit is an absolute Samhain essential! I have Ritual Group on the Saturday before Samhain. I'm leading our ritual this year so I am busy preparing that. I have the week of Samhain off (I always have that week off) and Mark and I are off to do a few nice things together. On the Tuesday evening my best friends are joining us for Samhain Dinner (another tradition). On Samhain itself we always go out to lunch and then it's a crazy busy evening with doorstep callers! After they've all gone home I turn off all the lights and hold my own ritual to honour my ancestors. I look forward to all of it! xx

Your hair kooks really fab, Allison! I do love a bit of wiggle in a well cut bob!! Your house looks gorgeous i have to say. Your Alters are very beautiful. We have what i think of, as a "Season area" in the dining room. I have made a few clay toadstools, and a little home made broomstick made from one of our cats Cat-Nip sticks and some string. I've hung up (dried in the oven) orange, apple, lemon n lime slices tied with cinnamon sticks hanging from shelves (I do like doing arts n crafts!) and daughter n i painted a couple of Halloween pictures so its all very Autumny! Your place is much Better and we only decorate one room! Thanks for sharing your time and decorations with us, Allison, it's all completely Lovely at your place! Love, Me in Devon l x 🍰🌻
