LETTER TO THE DEAD: A HALLOWEEN RITUAL

REMEMBERANCE
A LETTER TO YOUR DEPARTED 
LOVED ONES



Have you thought of writing to a loved one who has died? Telling her or him about how much you enjoyed your time together? How your life is? Perhaps asking for some guidance? 

You aslo might write a note to a departed one patching things up that weren't fixed before they passed away. 

At my annual Gala Hallowe'en Event the new addition to the ritual ceremony was much appreciated - The Remembrance Table with notepaper and pens.

Guests were invited to write a departed loved one a note or simply her/his name. 

Soon the basket filled up.

We then had our Ritual Celebration with music and audience particpation about Hallowe'en and why and how it's celebrated. 

Afterward, the  basket with the purple cloth -(color signifying the 7th Crown chakra) was placed on the altar.

I let the guests know that on All Hallow's Eve (Halloween) I will say a prayer to the spirits before sending their notes to the heavens or as pagan's say, "Slumberland" inviting the dead relatives and friends to visit their petitioners. 

Perhaps you too will write a note and burn it in a fire safe container, thinking of your loved one and she or he will come to visit you tonight or in the following days.

So Mote it Be.
