Samhain (October 31 - November 1): Marking the end of the harvest and the beginning of winter, Samhain is considered the Witches' New Year. It's a time to honor ancestors and loved ones who have passed. The veil between worlds is believed to be thinnest during this time. It corresponds with what we know today as Halloween.
-
Yule (December 21 - 22): Celebrated at the Winter Solstice, Yule marks the longest night and the rebirth of the Sun. It is a festive time of hope and celebration, often observed with decorations of holly, mistletoe, and Yule logs. Today we know it as Christmas.
