What is Halloween?

• Festival , which has roots in the traditions of the ancient Celts in Ireland and Scotland , whose history began in the lands of modern Britain and northern France , celebrated October 31 - the eve of All Saints' Day.

History and distribution

• The Celtic calendar divided the year into two parts - the dark, begins in late October - early November (month samonios) and bright. The bright part began in March - April(month giamonius). Changing parts of the year, as months, occurred with the advent of the full moon. Also, with the onset of the dark part of the year in the first three nightssamoniosa, the Celts celebrated the new year. Change of light and dark parts of the year also marked the spring holiday.

Party Supplies

• Halloween has a very rich trappings, the interest which is actively maintained modern companies, manufacturers of goods for children (costumes, masks, candy, jewelry, etc.). The desire of various companies (mostly American) to improve their profitabilityis largely due to the spread of Halloween outside the U.S., because in this countrymarket products for Halloween already saturated.

Whether you know, what bears in yourself this, is unfamiliar sounding for Russian ear, a holiday? Whether pagan rituals, or innocent jokes of children and the adults ready on the night of November, 1st to have fun up to I shall fall, dressing up in ridiculous suits and frightening each other?

C andles

• The symbol of the holiday for many Irish people is a burning candle, which is traditionally placed on the east window and burned before the end of the holiday. That evening, the families often reminded of the legend of the bronze head, which reflects the ancient Celtic tradition of hunting for heads of their enemies, which later adornedthe tomb. In the U.S., Halloween candles are traditionally colored in orange, purple,pink or black color and scented with cinnamon or other spices with a sharpsweet-spicy scent that is firmly associated with the holiday.

And when in IX century Daddy Grigory III has transferred since May, 13th for November, 1st celebrating of Day all sacred, halloween have started to

celebrate again. Night previous a holiday, in medieval English language, was called All Hallows Even (Evening of all sacred), in reduction - Hallowe'en, and at all is brief Halloween.

Whether the Christian church endeavoured to revival of a holiday of pagans? Most likely, the objective of eradication traditions was pursued, however, concurrence of dates has led to a boomerang effect. The holiday not only has survived, but also has densely rallied in consciousness of people with church celebrating Day of all sacred.

Entertainments to spirits were exposed in the street, and inhabitants gathered at fires which were planted with priests druids.

This night in a victim brought animals, did predictions and lit the winter center, bringing in the house language a sacred flame. The tradition of celebrating was transferred from century to century until in I century of our era Romans have not won territory.

Turned into Christian belief, inhabitants of islands of Ireland and Britain, have been compelled to refuse many pagan customs. However memoirs about halloween continued to live and be transferred from generation to generation.
