A practical guide to using the sacred herbs of Samhain for healing,
divination, purification, protection, magic, and as tools for
contacting the Spirits The ancient Celts separated the year into
two halves, the light half and the dark half, summer and winter.
The festival of Samhain, from which the modern holiday of Halloween
originates, marks the transition from summer to winter, the end of
the Celtic year, a time when the barriers between the physical and
spiritual world are at their most transparent. The herbs most
characteristic of this time have specific magical and healing
properties that echo the darker aspect of the year and offer potent
opportunities for divination, contact with ancestors and Land
Spirits, and journeys in the Otherworld. Presenting a practical
guide to the sacred herbs and trees of Samhain, Ellen Evert Hopman
details the identification, harvest, and use of more than 70 plants
and trees in healing, divination, purification, magic, and as tools
for contacting the Spirits wandering the landscape at this liminal
time of year. She explores the most effective plants for protection
from the mischief of the "Good Neighbors," the Sidhe or Fairies, as
well as herbs for releasing the Dead when they are trapped on this
plane. Detailing the history, rites, and traditions of Samhain,
Hopman explains how to make an offering to the Land Spirits and
provides instructions for the traditional Samhain ritual of the
Dumb Supper, complete with recipes for the sacred foods of Samhain,
such as Soul Cakes, Colcannon, Boxty bread, and dandelion wine.
