- 🕷️🧟Samhain is one of my favourite festivals (do I say that every time?) and I love sharing the Traditional Witch ways to celebrate this truly pagan event. Witch's understood the old ways of Samhain or halloween as I mostly call it. There are loads of rituals to carry out, divinations to be made and spells to cast, it is very much up to the individual witch how they celebrate Samhain. however it is a time for everyone to come together, whether that be in a coven or simply a party and I have included some rituals and spells that incorporate this aspect of your halloween. The veil between the worlds is at its thinnest and tonight is the night for the ghosts and gouls to make their wishes known.... happy hunting! 🕷️🕯️

#Samhain #witch #witchcraft101
For Samhain we put pictures of those who have departed us on our altar together with some of their favorite food. We decorate the altar with marigolds. We're Mexican so the altar is a combination of Halloween and Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead).
It's satanic and God
Isn't pleased with it. Hell is real and the Bible says suffer not a witch to live

Give it a rest.
Organized religion stole SO many of its own rituals and holidays from the early pagan and indigenous people in the countries they, hand in hand with governments, took over. Do some digging into world history, and make note of how people were conquered and political organizations used religious organizations to force the people to comply. Look at how many of so called "Christian" holidays were simply repackaged and moved to a nearby date in order to make the conquered and enslaved people think they were still worshipping their way, but now it had to be done in a manner that "pleased the church". And that if they didn't, there was going to be "consequences", both from God and the humans running the show.
Organized religion is simply a tool used to control the masses, AND to create further division amongst the people in order to cover up nefarious wrongdoings of leadership.
I spent more than three decades really believing what I was brainwashed into believing in the Christian church. As I grew older, began really reading the No or for myself, instead of just accepting and ingesting what I was being fed on Sunday and thru tv programs (program being a key word-- think about it), and began to give other world philosophies air time in my research, I learned an awful lot about Christianity and Catholicism. I learned that not everything is as "evil" as we were TAUGHT to believe. Notice we were TAUGHT. We weren't given options, we were told what to believe and how to behave. The irony being, it was ALL man made rules and regulations, being force-fed in order for the ruling class and church hierarchy to gain and amass wealth and power, and to keep the people subjugated under that power.
I've come away realizing that if anyone is "evil", it's those who cannot allow others to think for themselves, cannot accept that everyone is different, and everyone perceives and has a relationship with whomever/whatever they perceive to be in control of all of creation.
And that every human being has the right to choose how/what they believe-- within normal limits of course, such as the obvious cultural belief that it's wrong to harm others, murder, cheat, etc. Anyone alive should have that knowledge already in their heart and soul. Don't need a church or leader to tell you that.
Even the Bible was written by humans-- flaws ones, at that, as we all are. How can you believe that whatever message the authors of any religious script actually understood or correctly transcribed the message that whatever entity or being gave them, or that they didn't embellish it with their own opinions and experiences?
Within the limits of human decency, we should all be allowing one another to follow their own individual spiritual life and practice.
I also believe that it is highly pompous, disrespectful, and downright presumptuous to claim that one's own spiritual belief/journey/religion is the ONLY right one.
How preposterous and presumptuous that is!
Why not just follow what you believe is right and do what you believe your God/creator/spirit/universal being/own intuition is telling you is right for YOU, and stop telling others they are going to hell for theirs.
Awfully haughty of *anyone* to think that they have the ONLY way/connection to the higher source of all life.
Understanding the difference between "religion" and "spirituality" is what finally led me to leave organized religion and follow my inner knowing as to how to have a relationship with my Creator in my own way. Church leadership helped destroy my marriage, granted my ex license to do what he wanted to while I was to "obey" regardless, and nearly destroyed me.
I left. But I haven't left my Creator, nor has he left me. Nor will he.
This is why there is so much war and strife going on right now. Governments and religions are simply fighting for more control, more wealth, not even caring about the people they should be taking care of. In fact, the more divided and distracted the people are, all the better for those in power who truly ARE evil. They love it when we can't all just agree.
Leave people alone, you aren't "spreading the Word to the lost"-- you are condemning people who don't live or believe as you do. If you're uncomfortable with what non-Christians or anyone else is doing, allow them some grace, leave it up to the all powerful God you choose to follow (and you aren't him), and go pray for them. Read your Bible.
Don't go around preaching at people. That isn't what will "win them over" anyway. Go mind your business and stop "stumping for God". He doesn't need your help. He's capable without you.
Instead, why not pull out some of love and kindness and grace, and learn to accept that not everyone is like you, nor do they want to be, and just be fine with it.

@pleasurepanda3285. That is a lovely tradition! I loved the first 40 years of my life in California, born and raised there, before coming to the Midwest. While I love it here too, I do miss a lot of the Hispanic culture and traditions I remember living out there. Dia de Los Muertos is one that I always thought was wonderful, honoring your ancestors, so much color and love and celebration.
@iamangela171 how shameful. There is nothing satanic about it. Your Bible says honor thy father and thy mother. What better way to honor them after they've died than to set a memorial for them with flowers each year?
Why do Christians always have to make anti Pagan comments on Pagan pages? Do Pagans make comments on your pages? Back off. You're a joke!
The reason why I subscribed to this channel is because I love hearing the old meanings behind all these traditions and where they came from.
Too bad she gives zero sources and conflates things... Samhain is an Irish word... Cernunnos is a Gallic deity... the Irish would've had nothing to do with him. Homogenizing all Celtic cultures as if they were one is a massive issue in modern witchcraft/wicca.
cernunnos is also in Cornish folklore, but called the bucca duh. Samhain was also used by the anglo saxons and pre Christians, it cannot be claimed solely by the Irish. This is how I have referred to all these points. As no one really knows what is what, because there is hardly anything written down by any of the cultures we can all only speculate.
@@GinnyMetheralI rebuke ANY and ALL witchcraft you ever try to preform in the name of Yeshua the Messiah.
Learn how there are no in between "spirits." "For satan himself can appear as an angel of the light." The greatest deceiver is satan and the fallen ones who follow him. ONLY Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, & the life!
@nikkinik4188 what are you even doing here if you don't like it?
I swear like 3h ago I thought to myself "can't be long now until Ginny releases her new Samhain video" 😂❤️🦇✨
This is gonna be my first Samhain fully embracing my witch beliefs and practices, and this video was not only informative, it was inspirational!
Instant subscribe.
Thank you so much for your labor. Blessed be 💖
It's me and my wife's anniversary and as wicthes we celebrate it more than ever
Today is November 1st and I shared some food with my ancestors plus relatives last night. I opened a portal with my own speech so they could join and visit me. I knew they would be hungry after their travel from the spirit world to my physical realm. Then, just before midnight, with another personal speech, I respectfully closed the portal.
I found your video by accident or maybe it appeared because I had watched a documentary about the production of the 1973 movie Wicker Man.
One of my maternal ancestors was a Pict warrior. My mother had all the genealogical information about him and got it from someone researching the same line. I put off getting that information from her and sadly she passed away in October 2011.
TFS!!! That candle wax after you pulled it out looked to me like a Fairy or Angel!!! Wicked cool!!! Stay safe every1!!! Blessed Be and Merry Part!!! =-)
my grand mama would make pumpkin soup every fall, she added corneal to it! I like to add spices! thank you for not spooking up witchcraft!
Oh I loved mischief night..Toilet paper and smashing pumpkins..I love the kiddos in their costumes now and will try some rituals too..
Blessed Samhain! Will be meeting with fellow pagans and set up an ancestor altar. We will also light candles for loved ones who have passed this year and do some chanting and drumming. Blessings!
Ginny, really love the history behind Samhain, and really what we grew up with here in the states, whether people acknowledge this or not. In a sense, we all have celebrated this in our youth as Halloween. This gives relevance to the changing of the seasons. I truly love the Autumnal Equinox. For me a reflection of past happening throughout the year. 🎃
The reason why I subscribed to this channel, is the energy and love she pours into her videos..it’s wonderful.
Thank you so much, this is the first video I’ve seen of yours and I love it…now to watch everything on your channel!
At 6:47 the wax melt looks like an adorable lion cub sitting down 🦁
Is that a Ronald Hutton name drop? 😂 I agree, I found the Victorian assertion very odd
Happy Samhain, such a wonderful educational experience as well.🎃🕯🍂🍁
I used the tune Jingle Bells to create a Samhain song to sing. (I posted it on Instagram and don't know how to get it here for you to enjoy as well, but I'm sure you can find me there :) )
Happy Halloween/Samhain to all!
Thanks again for such an informative video. I really enjoy the folklore.🧙♀️😊
great educational video!! thank you for sharing ❤💋
This is the first video of yours Ive found and I'm in love! Thank you
Now that my kids are older, I have no worries about getting them dressed up in costumes & trick-or-treating. So this year-I started a new tradition. we took ourselves to a very fancy dinner (seasonal restaurant) to indulge in our favorite gourmet flavors, this ensures abundance for the rest of the year. & than I go to the beauty store after dinner and treat myself to some NEW make-up. To ensure beauty and vitality for the coming year as well ✨🫶🏽 it’s quit shallow😅 but somehow felt powerful this year. I needed to treat myself🎉
This was my first video of yours I watched and I have to say I am hooked. I’ve been looking for someone to mentor me and I believe I was lead to you for that. Thank you
Thank you for enlightenment of the holiday. Love listening to you. Have a blessed Samhain.
Thank you for making these! I learn so much!! 😍
I recently found your channel and I love your knowledge. I often watch videos and do my own research, you give great starting points. You also remind me of that cool spiritual aunt we all want to have 🖤🖤
I’d love to see a video on how to use mirrors (and not just black ones) for divination. I’ve been practicing for 20 years but the only form of divination I’ve ever been drawn to or talented with is using a pendulum. I am terrible at reading shapes and whatnot. I was given a little makeup mirror by my mom the other day and I’d love to know how to use it magically on the go. I’ve read washing the mirror in an infusion of mugwort and water helps but i thought I’d give a suggestion on a video I’m sure u know loads about! Thank u for this gem of a chat :) I love each video.
@Clara Messi stop using other ppl’s channels to rip ppl off with fake casters. Nobody falls for it. Say bye bye because u are getting reported!
I love your voice n the way to tell a story whether it's true or folktale. You'd make an awesome narrator for movies, shows or even just reading a book....new subscriber glad you popped up on my feed.
Wonderfully informative, Ginny! Loved it!
I grew up calling it Halloween too and we stick with it when celebrating. Ty for a great video. I’m so glad I found you tonight.
Well Ginny, your video was the unexpected pleasant suprise I needed. Thank you for a pleasant tutorial 🍁🍂🍃🔮
This was fascinating, I love Halloween and I’m so interested to know everything about it. I really enjoyed your video ✨🧙🏻♀️ 🎃
I absolutely adore you already! Definitely subscribing!
I love ur energy, thank u so much for the video!!
💗
Wow!!! amazing video, thanks so much for sharing wonderful information 🥰
Love the idea of a lighting ritual! Fabulous! Blessings as always! 🧙🏻♀️
Thank you so much!
I've always loved Halloween, and all things magical. Thank you so much for your video of education ❤ I will watch again, and take notes i will be trying what you said 😊 have a lovely day 😊
Thank you for the information and inspiration! Blessed be....
Loving the orbs flying around in this video… seeing them especially when you pour the water in the bowl.
Today shall forever be known as "The day that the RUclips algorithm BLESSED me with Ginny Metheral". 🥰🥰
Yes we must prepare for the new year. For those in curiosity of days of old, October was the eighth month of the year on old calenders, Octa being eight, Novem being nine, Deci being ten etc. October, November, December.
Archangel Michael
Thank you for sharing I absolutely love your videos ❤
Watching you makes me happy!
Such a compless celebration explaining with the most amazing skills and very intuitive spells. Love SAMHAIN thanks to this video I will explore the end of this month in a vlog. Merry mysterious Halloween
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have subscribed as I like the depth of your explanations, I can share your video to those family and friends that do not understand us 😊 Samhain Blessing 💚
looking forward to celebrating this ! :) 💗
What an amazing video. Can't wait to try the apple peel trick on Samhain.
Thank you for sharing! I found this vid quite informative. I'm still developing my own practices and traditions, which I'm sure over time will change and shift as I grow. I'm slowing developing my celebration into a 3-day event (I do the same with Mabon), and because I live in the US and have Native American and African American ancestry, I like to incorporate different elements that honors those cultures as well (because frankly, I believe we're all connected).
I try to cook something big on Samhain itself, like a stew that will last the 3 days. I also try to fill each day with something fun, educational and frightening. Of course, there's also meditation & divination.
Very nice video thanks for the post 😊😀
When you lifted the wax left in the water in the dish, , I saw an angel as clear as day! So your year should be filled with angelic and protected living and all will be watched over. Thank you for all of your teaching and it was most interesting and worth trying some, at least, of he many ideas given! . May your Samhain be ever so light and very spritual in your experience and may your angel keep you protected, as we grow closer to the veil that is ever thin!.
9?? I have been feeling the pull of paganism and witchcraft. But all my life November have been my favorite time of the year. I was born on 19th. It’s crazy. I need to learn more.
Thank you for sharing this information! I’m currently inviting more of these practices and traditions into my life since I feel very connected with them! 🍎🍂
Wonderful!
Thank you for this your a wonderful story artist
Sparklers are such a good idea!!!
Looking forward to trying water divination with a key and candle wax! Happy holiday! 🎃👻🍫🍭
Thank you. Great video. You have such charismatic energy. It is lovely. And your table with pumpkins is precious and awesome. Thank you for sharing your gifts with all of us. Happy Halloween! Oh, before I forget. If I may make a video suggestion... please... I would like to hear more about the elderly one cernnunos. That would make for an awesome video. Thank you.
Blessed be I'm new to your channel I'm from Sydney, Australia 🐨
I love Halloween 🎃
Love you!! 💕✨☺️
I just found your channel and I’m subscribing cus I feel like I have a lot to learn from you :) thank you
Awesome! Thank you!
I loooove the cute pumpkins💛🎃
Great video Would love a video about the Fae 🧚♂️🌿
Thank you! Great teaching-very much enjoyed🧹
Glad you enjoyed it!
Adding some information. I always use a Turnip instead of a Pumpkin. I think the pumpkin is an imported cultural idea. I come from an eclectic background... Scots/Irish.Manx/French./ Indian. I was taught it to be called a 'Neap Lantern" by my Scots Dad. (I revert back to the original spellings of Beltane as well) I also buy a small miniature bottle of Scotch Whiskey to poor on the ground beneath where I will hang the 'Neap Lantern' An.offering to the Cailleach .. ''The Land Spirit of Winter '..( Controversial comment on its own ) The Fae in Scottish folklore have both an Upper and lower Seelie court of Fae.t. So I wouldn't cast out the Upper court Fae.
So interesting, thank you for sharing, I love hearing others' rituals. -
I always heard the turnip was originally used for the lanterns in Ireland too. ✨️🎃
Thanks so Much!!!🌳
I agree and most of those are similar to my traditions love pumpkins I often do tarot readings and visions I leave a special spirt offering for all years something that spirts would remember me having during life a spooky thing about me is my name is 9 ,7,4,7letters long old a few years ago I used to find the spooky venture I plan to use teaching from my travails so many things I do appreciate your video I haven't seen many others but special thing I did was learn how many names for hollows eve I could find and learning as much as I could about each
Thank you! 💕
Thank you, Ginny, ❤BB❤
Very interesting…enjoyed the history.
Fascinating video 🥰 thanks my love ... from Yorkshire 1st time viewer
Awesome! Thank you!
I saw angel in the wax❤
thank you very much, very interesting - and at least I know now how to pronounce it correctly!
This info is so good. I was totally captivated by candle's fire. It didnt move at all!! I was actually so shocked when you took the one close to you and it was burning. I kept thinking I wonder if she works with fire alot? Anyway thanks again.
Brilliant video, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Another great video! Would you consider a video on the subject of warding a house? 😃
Great suggestion - it is something that I am VERY keen on
I love hearing all the history
Thankyou xxx
thank you..here in Uruguay we have copied Halloween from United States..I have been inspired-in dreams- to use the WITCH FOOT. for a Tarot reading..and it gives a lot of information about ancestors..our rots/emotions/water/energies/and the mind/words-swords..
Thank you : )
My brother and his wife went to Salem Massachusets. this last week. i had hip surgery so could not of course go, with my husband. But have been there before and really had a great time. It is very busy though this time of year(end of October) and the lines are long. So they are going agaiin in the Spring. Thank you agaiin for the idea, and will use some for this Samhain. My husband will help as it is a bit hard right now to do what I would like but we can still so some .
My first video and I've only just started watching and I've already subscribed! It's always a breath of fresh air hearing another fellow British witch! You're very beautiful! I'm from Berkshire, what about yourself? Thanks for this video! Sending love and light, Dolly xoxo
Halloween is almost 20,000 years. There was some sort of Astrological event in our solar system. Originating from the Taurid asteroid system (the same system which was rumoured to be the source of the Tunguska event 1908). This was such a mystifying event that many ancient cultures all across the world, from the the Celtic ans other pagans of Europe, to the maya of south America, and sumarians, and even ancient Egypt not only attributed this taurid system to that of the Bull or “White Bull” but also link it to the Pledies system. And all celebrated very similar harvest/fall/halloween celebrations
Blessed be
Love this video ❤️ me andy children will be going to Glastonbury there are dragons and everyone walks to a field by the tor where there is an enactment and throw letters into the bonfire of people that have passed x

ENGLAND ? HELLO GINNY HERE BRASIL AMAZING VIDEO 😎🙏
Merry Meet Ginny! 💚 Could you please tell me where the holy wells are located?
Hello! Happy Hallows eve! May i do a water scry with just regular bottled water that i blessed?
This is my first year embracing my witch side which is blend with my catholic side.
I am new to witchcraft and want to practice as authentically as possible. As a seasoned witch, do you think it matters whether you celebrate samhain on the accepted date of Halloween or is there something powerful about the actual midpoint between the fall equinox and the winter solstice, which according to astrological observations actually lands on the 7th of November.
There is no 'set' date for me in halloween, our ancients held it often as a three day affair, so I think that you should go with whatever feels right for you, and I like the idea of the equidistant 7th November
thank you for your reply. I like the idea of celebrating for 3 days, that would probably make you feel even more engrossed in the energy you generate from your rituals.
In México, the traditional day of the dead, is actually 3 days. Beginning the 31st and ending the 2 of November.
Which midnight is it a particular time zone or does it matter?
Dress for halloween but mine involve chain ting listening songs for witches.
Hi Ginny 👋 🥰😊🤗❤💜
Was not milk also left out for offerings to the spirits, souls, and sidhe also on Samhain?
What about us Earth Witch's in the Southern Hemisphere..1st of Dec is the start of Summer, I love to celebrate change of session, is the fail at its thinnest in Southern Hemisphere..I've always felt it is..but I get that much over info I become confused!?
Enjoyed the video.
Maybe I can help you a little with your pumpkin soup... it looked a bit thick and chunky; you really want to puree it silky smooth. thin it with chicken stock and cream, seasoned with sage, thyme and nutmeg its delicious. I garnish with toasted garlic croutons and thin scallion slices.
What are the fetivals of the middel ages or english folklore?
