What's your Halloween plan for your kilt?

[Mel1721L]

As I wear a kilt most days, the only difference will be my white Druid robes worn over it as I celebrate Samhain, the Celtic New Year. I will leave an offering of food and drink for my deceased ancestors during my ritual. At this time of year as Winter approaches, animals would be brought in from the hills and fields and those unlikely to survive the winter would be slaughtered. At this time of year the veil between the worlds is at its thinnest. People used to wear masks so they wouldn't be recognised by the dead. Offerings were left out for the dead so they knew they were not forgotten. As a pagan, I hate what has become of this special time, commercialised just like our Yule festival at mid winter.
