  • From Lora, Pooka & the Team
    Pooka's Page for Grownups For the past 14 years, I've drawn the Elsie & Pooka pictures on the same little Wacom tablet so I wasn't surprised when it gave out in the middle of our last issue. For this issue, I bought another tablet. It worked for, maybe, 5 minutes. So, I hope the kids will forgive me for pulling out some old illustrations for our Pooka story instead of the marvelous one I had planned? Yule will be our next issue and, for those of you who are new to Pooka Pages, there's an Elsie & Pooka "Yule & Imbolc Book" out. It has lots of Pooka stories as well as some of our best recipes, crafts, herbal lore and spells. It's available on Amazon for under $10 and, Pooka may be biased, but he thinks it would be a pretty cool Yule gift for your little witchlings! But better order early. They tend to sell out quickly during the holidays and can take a while to re-stock. Fiona's "Letter from Scotland" is all about the country's famous Faery Cats, of which she has two! (Remember, in her last issue, poor Meg had lost most of his tail?) Anyway, she wanted to share some links in case the children were interested in learning more about these wonderful legendary (and real !) Kellas cats. Their story is truly fascinating. http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/12705960.Just_wild_about_the_black_cats/ https://www.amazon.co.uk/My-Highland-Kellas-Cats-Francis/dp/022403961X http://scotcats.online.fr/abc/identification/kellascataron.html Have a Spooky Samhain! from Lora, Pooka & the Team www.pookapages.com www.facebook.com/PookaPagesTeam/ Also known as: Halloween, All Hallow’s Eve, Shadow Fest, Night of Remembering Samhain (pronounced “Sowain” or “Sowhen”) means the “end of summer” and harkens back to the days of the ancient Celts when the year was divided in two parts – the warm half or “summer”, and the cold half, "winter".

  • All Hallows/Halloween
    ALL HALLOW’S EVE A bit of history . Halloween is shortened from “All-hallow-evening,” the eve of All Hallow’s Day, which is now known as All Saints Day. (All Saints Day became was placed on November 1 by Pope Gregory IV in 835; All Souls Day on November 2 in 998.) Millions of children celebrate Halloween each year with costumes, parties, and hi-jinks. But what are they celebrating? Where did these customs arise? Halloween has its origins in the ancient Celtic festival known as Samhain; from the Old Irish samain). The festival of Samhain is a celebration of the end of the harvest season in Gaelic culture, and is sometimes regarded as the "Celtic New Year". Traditionally, the festival was a time used by the ancient pagans to take stock of supplies and slaughter livestock for winter stores. The ancient Gaels believed that on October 31, now known as Halloween, the boundary between the alive and the deceased dissolved, and the dead become dangerous for the living by causing problems such as sickness or damaged crops. The festivals would frequently involve bonfires, into which bones of slaughtered livestock were thrown. Costumes and masks were also worn at the festivals in an attempt to mimic the evil spirits or placate them. In pagan times, October 31 was New Year's Eve, a night of evil and terror when all hell broke lose. Goblins and ghosts were abroad that night, while witches celebrated their black rites as the spirits and souls of the dead roamed the earth. To frighten the evil spirits and to bolster their own sagging spirits, our ancestors created a din with bells, horns, pots and pans, (just as we still do at midnight on December 31st), and built fires to frighten the witches or perhaps burn them if they might get caught.
