Samhain is known as the feast of the dead, for it was believed that during this time the dead could return to the land of the living to celebrate with their family, tribe, or clan.

The day was changed from May 13 th to November 1 st , and then called All Saints Day to celebrate all the Saints that died during the year. I believe the Pope moved it because Samhain was too popular, even though some converts to Christianity. It still had a great influence on the new converts. If we look around us, we notice that this celebration is closely related with death and all that surrounds it. The pope moved it to compete with the pagan holiday Samhain, so that they wouldn’t celebrate the dead the way the Celts did, but that they would remember the Holy Christians that died during the year. Now let’s look at the transition of the name of this pagan holiday: It was called the evening of All Saints Day (to celebrate ALL the Saints), for it was celebrated on the eve of that holiday. Eventually it became called All Hallowed Evening or All Hallowed Eve the evening for all saints. Then it progressed to All Hallow E’en (E’en is an abreviate term like eve, and means evening). With linguistic sliding and through the years, we now have the term Halloween has we know it today. All Saints Day came to be called All Halloweds since it was a day to honor all the hallowed ones, the Christian dead. Since Samhain always occurred the evening before All Halloweds, it came to be called All Hallowed Evening or just Halloweds E’en. From this it evolved to Hallows E’en and finally, to Halloween as we know it today E’en is the term for evening. Hallow, also means Saints or Holy one. By joining Hallow and E’en, with time and little transformation, we finally got our modern term for that holiday: Halloween. Because of the relationship in the names, and the adjacent dates, many today entertain the unfound idea that Halloween is somehow a Christian Holiday.

In the midst of the darkness that prevailed during the Middle Ages there was a mighty revival of witchcraft and Satanism... Then in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, there came a flood of Celtic immigrants to the New World (they came to America), mostly from the British isles, and they brought with their folk belief and pagan superstitions; they brought with them Samhain, the Festival of Death.

The origins of Halloween can be traced backfrom the time of the Celts (about 300 yearsbefore Jesus Christ) but it was different fromwhat we know today. The Celts lived inEurope: Traces of Celts can be found almostanywhere in temperate Europe.
The name of the festivity is called Samhain and means: Summer’s End. Samhain, ispronounced: sow-in (in Ireland), or sow-een (inWhales), or sav-en (in Scotland), or (inevitably)sam-hane (in the U.S., where most wouldn’tknow and don’t speak Gaelic). According to themodern pagan, Samhain is the name of thefestivity, not of a god. Samhain is not a CelticGod. Samhain is not a Satanic deity either.
Samhain is known as the feast of the dead, for itwas believed that during this time the deadcould return to the land of the living to celebratewith their family, tribe, or clan. The great burialcairns of Ireland (sidhe mounds) were openedup with lit torches lining the walls, so the deadcould find their way. Extra places were set at thetables and food set out for any who had died thatyear. It is still customary to set an extra place atyour supper table on Samhain Eve in honor ofthe departed.
How did the transition from Samhain, theCeltic’s New Year celebrated on October 31st,change such that we have the Halloween as weknow it today? These grand and glorious pagancelebrations were assimilated by the CatholicChurch. Rather than extinguish old customs, theChurch leaders provided Christian versions ofthem From the Middle Ages on, All Saints’ Dayand All Souls’ Day replaced the ancient Celticcelebrations of the dead.
Halloween was originally a festival of fire andthe dead and the powers of darkness. It is the
evening of November 1st, the night before theChristian festival of All Hallows’ or All Saint’sDay. All Hallow’s Day commemorates thesaints and the martyrs, and was first introducedin the 7th century. Its date changed from May13th to November 1st in the following century,probably to make it coincide with andchristianize a pagan festival of the dead. AllSoul’s Day in the Roman Catholic Church isNovember 2nd. It is marked by prayers for thesouls of the dead. While the Roman CatholicChurch enjoyed success in converting theoriginally pagan holidays of Christmas andEaster to more Christianized counterparts, thiswas not the case with Halloween. Theintentional effort by the Catholic Church tostamp out the pagan ceremonies failed.
That celebration was first introduced by PopeGregory III in the 7th Century and was changedby the Pope Gregory IV around 835 AD. Theday was changed from May 13th to November 1st, and then called All Saints Day to celebrateall the Saints that died during the year. I believethe Pope moved it because Samhain was toopopular, even though some converts toChristianity. It still had a great influence on thenew converts.
If we look around us, we notice that thiscelebration is closely related with death and allthat surrounds it. The pope moved it to competewith the pagan holiday Samhain, so that theywouldn’t celebrate the dead the way the Celtsdid, but that they would remember the HolyChristians that died during the year. Now let’slook at the transition of the name of this pagan holiday:
It was called the evening of All Saints Day (tocelebrate ALL the Saints), for it was celebratedon the eve of that holiday. Eventually it became
called All Hallowed Evening or All HallowedEve the evening for all saints.
Then it progressed to All Hallow E’en (E’en isan abreviate term like eve, and means evening).With linguistic sliding and through the years,we now have the term Halloween has we knowit today.
All Saints Day came to be called All Hallowedssince it was a day to honor all the hallowedones, the Christian dead. Since Samhain alwaysoccurred the evening before All Halloweds, itcame to be called All Hallowed Evening or justHalloweds E’en. From this it evolved toHallows E’en and finally, to Halloween as weknow it today E’en is the term for evening.Hallow, also means Saints or Holy one.

The cold is never the causeof colds or flu.It is often said that we have caught a coldfrom the cold or a sudden change intemperature. It is in fact the viruses thatcause colds or flu. The cold air currents arenot the direct cause. The phenomenon isindeed caused by two circumstances: first, tomeet these viruses in winter and secondly,the sudden change in temperature weakensthe respiratory system and promotesinfection. That's what makes the disease andthe cold are closely related.

THIS MONTH’S VEGETABLE
The term squash designates several species of plants of theCucurbitaceae family. They aregenerally grown for their ediblefruit but sometimes for theiroilseeds. The term also refers tofruit, which have the ability toeasily keep mature and are used in cooking as a vegetable or fed to animals.
2 cups of rolled oats (oatmeal)2 cups of whole wheat flour1 1 / 4 cup of sugar2 pinches of salt2 teaspoons of baking soda2 teaspoons of baking powder2 eggs1 / 2 cup ofvegetable oil
To cook your squash, use a flat glass baking dish. Cut the squash in halflengthwise and removeseeds. Then, place thesquash (the flesh sidedown) in the glass dish
and fill the bottom with water.
Put in the oven to 350° F about 45 minutes (depending on size ofsquash). When the flesh is tender and orange, it's ready.
Mix together in a bowl the dryingredients: oats, flour, sugar, salt,baking soda and baking powder.
In another bowl, mix together allother ingredients: squash (if it's a bigsquash, use only half), eggs and oil.Add the two mixtures. Stir well.
Pour the mixture into muffin tins(makes about 20 muffins).
Bake at 350 F for about 15 to 20minutes. Test with a toothpick to see if the inside is well cooked.
