Where does Halloween come from?
Many mystical secrets and rituals are associated with Halloween. The origins of this holiday go back to the times of the Celtic tribes, who honored their dead ancestors in a unique way. In Ireland at that time, it was believed that on the night from October 31 to November 1, the line between the world of the living and the dead becomes thinner, so the souls of the dead can penetrate from the other world into ours. They come to the houses where they lived before to warm themselves by the fire. To scare away, confuse evil spirits and evil spirits, the Irish dressed in animal skins and lit bonfires.
On November 1, the Celts honored the Sun God. On this day, sacrifices were made to propitiate the gods and get a good harvest. In the Middle Ages, when Christianity reigned on the territory of modern Europe, November 1 was called All Saints' Day - All Hallows' Day. Hence the modern name - Halloween. On this day, it was customary to honor the great martyrs. Historically, pagan mysticism peacefully coexisted with Christian beliefs.
In the 19th century, immigrants from Ireland brought Halloween to America, where Celtic rites and traditions were mixed with Indian ones. This is how the American version of this holiday that we know today arose. Halloween is one of the oldest holidays in the whole world. Today, few people believe in werewolves and witches, but the tradition of organizing parties with dressing up as representatives of evil forces has remained. "Rituals" turned into theatrical performances, mass festivities and parties, the purpose of which is to have fun.
What does a pumpkin with a candle mean on Halloween?
One of the symbols of Halloween is a pumpkin with a "scary" face. There are several versions of the origin of this attribute. A pumpkin "head" with a lighted candle inside symbolizes the harvest, evil spirits, and fire that scares away evil spirits at the same time. The flame of a candle lit inside a pumpkin also symbolizes souls wandering between worlds.
Another belief is that the fire in the pumpkin should scare off the spirits that want to enter the house. According to the old calendar, the new year in England begins on November 1. It is believed that on the eve of October 31, evil spirits should be chased away with a special "lantern" made from a pumpkin or other vegetable.
There is another legend. The fiery head symbolizes the deal that a drunkard named Jack made with the evil one. He agreed that his soul would not go to hell, but since he was a sinner, there was no place for him in heaven either. That's how restless Jack's soul wanders around the world.
